2011 Ford Edge - Specifications, Pictures, Prices
BTW, I think you drive a 3.0si like I do - they are family cars half the time. Anyway, I don't know if the OP is going for 08s because of price but I thought I'd throw the EDGE out there since it might be in the range.

Yes, I've seen it. Still not something I would want. Good value, and nothing wrong with a box on wheels. And if you like American cars. Consumer Reports reviewed the new Lincoln that's built on it and couldn't recommend it BECAUSE of it's touchscreen. (but I don't put much stock in Consumer Reports..)
EDGE has been a very good seller for Ford. But there's really nothing Ford has that I like (I looked, believe it or not). The Explorer had BARELY changed from when I was in college. (this was months before the 2011 redesign)
No - I drive a 35i. Had to order it.
I did read the comparison - good points, but I think they UNDERSTATE the MDX's body roll and it is very far from an UNQUALIFIED "SH-AWD is better."
Pricing is also dated in that 2007 report - with the MDX being quite a bit more and the X5 being somewhat less (than it used to be).
I would think that someone who wants an MDX will buy an MDX.
I find the X5 to be much more my taste. Looks, feel, etc.
