To all, About 2 weeks ago, I picked up a 2007 Ford Edge SEL+, copper with black leather, 18" alloys, Vista-view. Audiophile 9 spkr sound system, etc. I really like the vehicle and get a lot of compliments on it. As to the deal, I live in metro Atlanta and there are many dealerships, so pricing is competitive. Initially, dealerships were quick to agree to drop sticker by 5400 in order to move inventory. The vehicle stickered at 32,810 and we paid around 26,600 for the Edge. With all of the discounts taken on the vehicle, special financing rates were not available. While the price was great, the dealership experience was rotten with a salesman who didn't know anything about the car, a less than knowledgeable service department, difficult parts group, no vehicle delivery, car was dirty at delivery as well as a variety of other problems. When the salesman stopped talking to me about my experience, he then emailed my wife at our home. Customer service agent for the dealership has dropped off the face of the earth. Car purchased at Jim Tidwell Ford in Kennesaw, GA. Avoid this dealership. |

& congrats to the EDGE family.. $6200 off Mrsp not bad.. I got $4600 & zero % which I could not turn down.. but last week took the the Men out for Golf at Presido in SF, & everybody love it, total of 3 men & 3 bags which was no problem for room, even the 6'5" & 250 lbs sat in the rear seat & he love the ride (he usually rides in the front of my 95 Explorer because it would be tight in the rear seat) now on to bigger & better & comfy ride.. Hit them straight.  P.S. Did this forum help you buy the Edge.. Hope so..

I love my Edge! The simple solution to the dashboard reflection in the windshield is to wear polarized sunglasses. It eliminates 90% of the glare.

I have been given a quote of $30,860 for a limited FWD Edge including TT&L. What do you think? I am trying to get them lower.

OK, pulled the trigger and ordered the following: 2008 AWD Limited (30,134) Panoramic Roof (1186) White Sand Tri-Coat Paint (421) Trailer Tow Package (336) Rubber Mats (47) Cargo Management System (55) Sirius Satellite Radio (166) 5 Gals gas (yeah, they charge you!) (15.50) FDAF Assessment Fee (458) Dest and Del (705) + $150 over invoice GRAND TOTAL $33,673.50 not including tax and license, doc fee MINUS any applicable rebates or incentives at the time of delivery The gas and FDAF fee kinda makes the warm and fuzzy part of this transaction disappear. The salesman (as well as the sales manager) did say two things that I would like some feedback on from those of you in the know: 1. We cannot guarantee the final price of your order until the car is delivered because Ford may raise the price of an option or something and we will have to pass that on to you??????? Of course, I am immediately suspicious of this since I signed a contract for the above pricing. I figure if they pull that at time of delivery, then the gloves will come off then. Have any of you heard of a dealer doing this? 2. I wanted them to apply the current rebates/incentives but they again said I would get whatever was being offered by Ford at the time of delivery. Why is it I can buy an unbuilt house for several hundred's of thousands of dollars, settle on the price with the builder, take possession 6 months later and not have to worry about the price of lumber going up? Geez, this stuff is exactly why I hate buying a car. What an amazing alien world the whole purchasing of a motor vehicle has become. And they wonder why car dealers have a bad rep with the general public! Overall, we are looking forward to our new Edge in 6-10 weeks. Hopefully, nothing will come up to queer the deal. Thanks again, in advance, for shedding any helpful light on this.
