I hope this review assists anyone that can find this ride. She'll drop a gear and disappear! But from a dead stop, not so much.there's a bit of a lag in the transmission that will more often than not make one reconsider their decision on going or wait for another opening in traffic, if you get my meaning. The Edge also really hates punching it from a dead stop. It's a small trade-off for an otherwise great vehicle.
You just have to bow forward a bit to make sure the coast is clear. BUT.the front window supports and rearview mirror do present a considerable blind spot. BTW, I am 6'5 and still 220#, this is a great vehicle if you're tall. Gas mileage still averages around 23-25/gal depending on my lead foot and my agitation with distracted drivers. It has hauled everything I needed for close to a decade. The 2nd row seats fold 90% flat with just a flick of a handle. It was horrible a decade ago! LOL! The room in the back is still great for passengers and available cargo area has never failed me. Interior and dash is dated but still comfy and looks great after a good cleaning! Just don't expect to link anything up to it through the infocenter. I believe the shocks are going and I might have those replaced. Anyway, still have not put much money into mine outside of the basics. Picture semi in the lane as you enter the highway. Gas mileage is great on hers until one needs the power of a bigger engine. She has a 6 cly and gets up and moves! My sister has a 4 cyl turbo, 2021 Edge, but you can feel the lack of power as you enter the freeway, not to mention the annoying auto-shutoff that you can override but you have to do that at each start up. I still have my 2013 Edge that I purchased certified pre-owned years ago and currently have 113k miles on it with no desire to trade it in.
#13 ford edge update
UPDATE: I wrote a review on this Edge years ago under the name Abellows, but feel I might update this with the way the world/economy is going. I plan on purchasing a newer Edge when the time comes.and this comes from someone who never cared for a Ford.
Replaced some of the standard stuff like battery, headlights, tie-rods and tires. UPDATE: The 2013 Edge is still going strong. Highly recommend this vehicle especially if you're tall. It really doesn't like 2nd gear and reading other reviews it seems to be a known issue with the Edge. My only complaint so far is the transmission. I don't have a phone with Bluetooth but Sync works really good with my i-touch. The V6 really moves and looks great while doing it. Now for the rest, I never thought I'd buy a Ford but I love this vehicle.
#13 ford edge driver
The driver seat has many settings for your comfort. I'm 6'5 220# and have plenty of room in all directions. If you're a tall person and in the market for a crossover, give the Ford Edge a serious look.
