Replying to: thegraduate (Dec 22, 2007 4:03 pm) I agree, but I was a bit surprised at the Consumer Reports reviews. Many of the measured performance results improved considerably for the Taurus X.   They must have re-tuned the suspension as well, I suppose.

Replying to: johnnyholliste (Dec 26, 2007 3:26 pm) I have an Explorer and would consider the Edge for a second car...what kind of mileage are you getting? From the specs it does not seem like much of a difference then the Explorer which would be a deal killer on a second car for me. Replies to this message: akirby (Dec 29, 2007 5:57 pm)

#789 of 811 have an '07 edge as a loaner by explorerx4 Jul 07, 2008 (1:52 pm)
it has about 34.5k on it. it is an awd se, so fairly basic. the drivetrain seems pretty good, quiet,smooth. the driver seat is really comfortable. i bought a fusion about 3 months ago, but i would have put more thought into an edge, if i had sat in the driver seat. i had been in the passenger seat before. the tires really suck. new hankook's. they have 2 different noises they make on the highway, especially 70 mph. there is a lot more rear seat headroom without the vista roof.

Replying to: explorerx4 (Jul 07, 2008 1:52 pm) They ditched the Hankook and Continental tires on the 08s - they come with Michelins. At least the 18s and 20s versions - not 100% sure about the 17s.
#791 of 811 I'm really interested in the Mazda cx7 -torn between that and an Edge by weinerdowndog Sep 10, 2008 (6:18 pm)
I am trading in my Mercury Mountaineer 2006 AWD V8 for something with better gas mileage. I'm giving up the 3rd row seat for a lower payment. Which of these is better? I want one fully loaded with everything but dvd entertainment pkg. help! I'm looking at the Ford Edge Limited and the Mazda CX7.
