  1. Have also noticed this - and always about 1/2 to 1/4 mile from home.
  2. OK... Took the spare key and owner's manual for the Edge to the dealer this morning. It's actually seventeen miles, and the car told me it got 42.2 mpg. drove it back to the grocery store near my home. 16.5 miles, 51.6 mpg. For the 2.3 mile trip home, it said it got 58.3 mpg. Guess I'll have to put buckets under it overnight to catch all of the extra fuel that'll start pouring out of the tank LOL!!!
  3. Thanks, gents! Yes, I suppose you'd call it an impulse buy. Although gas prices are dropping, they may not stay that way, and I'd been thinking off and on what might provide something better than the 21mpg I was getting with the Edge. Saw this on the showroom floor, pondered it for a half hour or so, talked with a salesguy, made the deal. Am guessing I left a few dollars on the table, but so be it. It was still nicely discounted and met my requirements and budget. Got 46.5mpg (or so the car tells me!) on the 15-mile drive home. Being an S, few bells and whistles, but the only ones I'll miss (Edge was a Limited) are the driver aids - rear camera and monitor, cross traffic warnings. I'll adapt!
  4. Hi! Took my 2012 Edge to the dealership for some PM, left with a 2014 FFH instead. First Fusion, though I've driven several. Second hybrid - before the Edge I had an '08 Tahoe hybrid. Glad to meet everyone!
