That's an opinion and I'm cool with it... I disagree with the bland comment though. I think there's enough going on stylistically to keep things interesting from just about every angle.

I will say this, from the very first images I saw on the net of the redesigned Edge, I didn't like it. After seeing them in person for long enough and seeing one in my own garage for a couple months now, I'm a huge fan of the way it looks.

Then again...we all can't have the BEAK!!

You're fucking idiot. Please go back to the TL forum.

Where's the thread that someone posted about buyers avoiding Acuras because of the fucking beak?

That is an awesome pic of the beak! I never really saw that angle, terrible looking but nice Edge. Ford is really impressive lately

Took that pic at last years auto show. I walked by and saw it (I too had never seen that angle) and had to take a picture...

Towed with it for the first time this weekend... Unless you look in the rear view mirror you really can't tell anything is back there...





This was helpful when backing down the launch ramp:



It's got just a hair over 30,000km's or 18,600 miles on it now (in less than 6 months)... Nothing has come up with it, still feels new all the way around... My dad couldn't be happier with it but misses the agility of a car. He is now looking into something for the weekends Come onnnnnn Shelby

At first I thought you meant the Edge was towed

Glad to hear it's doing great so far. And wow, that is a lot of driving. Took me 2 and a half years to put on 50,000 km on my car.

And for summer boating!

Nice. Almost compels me to look at Fit replacements though the wife will never allow it. The Edge is such a sharp looking vehicle especially after the MMC.

WOW!!! And I thought the 33,000 miles I posted in my 09 MDX was a lot. Sounds great that your father enjoys the Edge. His feelings and experiences with the Edge echo mine with the MDX, though I've got ZERO complaints about the MDX's agility.

I especially love the placement of the LED lights

I take it out everywhere (Sparrow lake, Balsam Lake, Orr Lake, Stoney Lake, Lake Simcoe, Six Mile Lake, Georgian Bay) but that day specifically was Jacksons Point on Georgian Bay. It's a half hour ride to Wasaga Beach and just a few mins away from Balm Beach (if you know the area)... Here's where it is: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=44.67...,0.013797&z=16
