THE BASICS:
Year: 2019
Make: Ford
Model: Edge
Trim: Titanium
EXTRAS:
There is an AWD version, but this isn't it. This is the EcoBoost model (front wheel drive) and it also has the "301A Equipment Group" which includes:
+ Voice-Activated Touchscreen Navigation System
+ Heated and Ventilated Leather Seats
+ Panoramic Vista Roof
+ Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+
Type: this is a 4-door mid-sized crossover SUV that seats 5
Color: Stone Gray
Wheels: 19-inch Nickel-Painted Aluminum Wheels
MSRP: $41,505
HISTORY:
+ This is the second generation of the Edge. Ford has been making this crossover since around 2006.
UNDER THE HOOD:
Engine: Twin-Scroll 2.0L 4-cylinder EcoBoost Engine
Transmission: Eight-Speed Automatic Transmission
Horsepower: 250hp @ 5,500 rpms
MPG City: 22
MPG Highway: 29
Combined MPG: 25
Fuel Tank Capacity: 18 gallons
Cost for a full tank: $3.15/gallon x 18 gallons = $56.70
HANDLING:
+ Comfortable ride. I felt in control while going around curves at high speeds and making tight turns at low speeds. IN fact, parking this one is SUPER easy.
ACCELERATION:
+ Smooth and a bit quiet. The quiet part is actually a criticism. I like it when the engine growls when I'm accelerating hard. And the Edge, is maybe a little too quiet for my taste. But...it is peppy. In fact, I found it REALLY easy to accelerate and pass vehicles on the interstate. There is a slight delay when you need speed, but once it kicks in the Edge is FAST.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Great crossover SUV. I really enjoyed driving this one and I continue to be impressed with how well Ford incorporates technology into their vehicles. It's seamless and I never felt like I had to search for a button or a function, because everything is right where it should be.
I'm going to miss this one.
So that's it for now. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you'll join me next time when I rent and review my 129th rental car. I'll see you then.

You read all the way to the end? Nice! Don't stop here. Shoot me and email or leave me a comment and say Hello!
Hello! I loved the Edge when I drove it and I love it EVEN MORE now that I just finished renting the 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross. Ford really has done a nice job with this vehicle. It's not perfect...but it's hard not to enjoy driving this one. Anyway, let me know what you think! It's been a bit since I had a review up, so I'd love to hear your thoughts! Hope your day is going well. Cheers!
100 Rental Cars I’m traveling with my family and friends this summer and I really hope that i get a vw atlas I did love the grand cherrokee i own a 13 i had a durango with a 5.7l hemi lovely car but uses way too much gasoline really good looking car you rented i saw a bunch of new ford edges on a transport truck on the highway headed to my local ford dealership they’re already sold out of edges.
100 Rental Cars once I had the option to rent this car at the enterprise airport location i rent at but I ended up with a 2018 Chevrolet Equinox lt awd with 32k miles on it which was torture because it had cheap plastic it was slow underpowered. I should have gone with the edge.
Will there be a video on the eclipse cross anytime soon? I haven't been able to see a review that wasn't attacking it thoroughly
Yep, I finished the editing over the weekend. It'll post this Sunday at 10am. I didn't attack it...but, I didn't fall in love either. I think the Eclipse Cross has potential, but there's still some things I'd like to see improved/changed. Anyway, if you watch my review, let me know what you think. I do try hard not to be snarky and overly opinionated. But it's not aways easy. 😀
100 Rental Cars what sound of car is that starting for the intro?
Can we just get this guy more subscribers? The work and detail he puts into these videos is incredible. And he's not biased... Just informational.
Aww thank man! Much appreciated! I'm pretty happy with my 10k subs, but I won't complain if more people wanna join me!
You do this so well, that you should become a full time, professional auto journalist.
I just purchased a 2020 Edge after 10 years in 2 Volvos. Went back to Ford. Very happy with the vehicle. Few changes from the 2019 (CD eliminated). I learned about many features though in your video. Will look for the compass feature tomorrow. I absolutely love the new Edge and has renewed the pleasure of driving. I agree the new Edge is a winner and quite handsome too compared to previous generation eyesore. Thanks!
It's been only a few days since I have discovered your channel, and when it comes to reviewing cars, you show very well that the size of an audience doesn't reflect on how good or bad someone is. You do the best job at keeping an unbiased yet commenting review on successes and shortcomings of cars, a brief yet very informational review with all the necessary information on day to day use of models, and you judge cars based off of the quality of the model given, not of the Brand's reputation in the past with completely unrelated models. I hope you can keep the reviews coming and all success you ever need in this channel. I'm only 16 and don't own a car, but I am a huge car enthusiast who loves to see how all brands and models are doing. The professionalism you hold yourself to in these reviews is rare and extremely desirable. Hope to see more in the future 👍
Thanks for the kind words! I do try to make my videos as unbiased as possible, but it's not always easy. I've made more than my fair share of dumb mistakes. Speaking of, please don't hesitate to offer some constructive criticism. I'm trying to get better at this and every little bit helps. Also, you should totally do a review of your own! Just use your cell and a family member's car. I'd bet you'd be great at it. Shoot me a link and I'll share it on my channel. Cheers!
This actually has the 301A package which brings it to having an MRSP of $44,000. Enterprise has really nice 2019 Edges.
$44k is pretty pricey. I mean, I like the Edge, but forty four thousand dollars could get you something much, much nicer than a Ford...
What trim level are you getting at Enterprise? I am renting out later this June.
i also live in the chicago land area and i just knew what mall you were at in the beginning of the video
A family friend just bought a 2019 Edge ST! Great car and I’m looking forward to this video!
Loved it! One weird request - I kinda would like to hear the horns on these vehicles. Some manufacturers cut costs by putting cheap sounding “road runner” horns in their SUVs
Sure! And it's not a weird request at all. You're actually not the only person to ask for this. I'll try and remember to hit the horn on my next rental. I already filmed and edited my next video, so the first time I'll be able to include a horn will probably be in 2 weeks or so.
Edit: fixed a typo
Awesome review as always, I really love that stated what type of driver safety aids the vehicle has, since some of them can be overly twitchy or with a lot of tings making it hard to figure out what really the car is alerting us with.
Been looking at a 2019 Edge Titanium. Impressed with them but it's hard not to notice how thick the pillars are, especially the C pillar.
I‘ve had this car during my stay in Abu Dhabi. It‘s a very good car imo :)
These are great vehicles, although the Jeep Grand Cherokee is my pick for a midsize SUV. :) I've never seen a rental car with parallel and perpendicular park assist before. The most driver assistance I've ever had in a rental car is a Chevy Suburban with vibrating driver's seat, blind spot assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear camera, of course. :)
Vincent D Technically the Grand Cherokee is not a midsize SUV. The regular Cherokee is a midsize SUV
@@disneyfan9099 That would be incorrect. I own one. Yes I know the GC is classified as a Standard SUV by most rental companies (so is the Edge), but it IS a midsize SUV, NOT a fullsize SUV... the regular Cherokee is considered a compact SUV, even though it's considered an Intermediate SUV by most rental companies.
@@jeepguy95 Cherokee is a compact SUV and the GC is midsize SUV.
As of right now, Chrysler doesn't have any full size SUVs
@@nickr3441 Correct. The Durango *could* be considered a full size SUV considering how big it is, but essentially, it's still a midsize.
I Love This Review. I been looking at the Ford Edge and some other CUV's also. I really like the Ford Edge. It's not too big or too small it's just the right side for me. I like the Titanium Trim. But the SEL Trim would do me just fine. Thanks for the review of the Ford Edge.
Very helpful Video, above all when you're preparing a trip to the US, thank you very much 👍🏼
The exterior gets a 5 star, the interior gets a 1. The inside looks like it's from the 90s with those buttons in the middle
Nick R it should be like the new Escape with the all digital speedometer
Nice video 👌
Would ve cool if you could mention from which rental company you got it and what category it is. (Im the kind of person who searches all possible cars when i rented a specific category 😂)
Keep making great videos 💪
Nice car, nice review
This is just an excellent car.
8:57 ...."Side view mirror is devoid of buttons....." That thing in the middle is the Rear view mirror.....
Trolling complete.....next
Just kidding....well done !!!
Howdy, awesome video as always!😸😸
👍👍👍
You're doing a great job on your reviews! Question, how was the Mitsubishi crossover?
Thanks! It was fair. I mean, I liked driving it because it was new and different. But it's not as good as other similarly priced crossovers. That's just me though. If you're interested, I finished my review over the weekend. It'll post this Sunday at 10am CST.
You sound like Steve Carell
Any Suggestions I’m keeping sand and water out of the door frames on a 2015?
What type of gas do you fill up for a good fuel economy, regular or premium ?
Great review 👍
Thanks!
Could you start letting us know what rental company you rent each car from? As well as the class of rental?
Sure. I always rent from Enterprise and I pay for a mid sized rental, although I frequently get upgraded, because of how frequently I rent (1 to 2 times a week). The cost is almost always around $30 to $35; although, I've gotten a few as cheap as $20 and as expensive as $57. It all depends on the time of year.
2019 is the start of Gen III
How much a mounth.
I have one...nice car but be careful!! There is a problem with the 8F35 transmission that Ford has not come up with a fix yet. I've watched several of these reviews and none have mentioned the low speed bucking and lurching that many have experienced.
Have you looked into driving the new Nissan Altima?
I have. Unfortunately I, there's hasn't been one available yet. Hopefully very soon.
Based on the Fusion, I assume?
No it’s actually a god bit larger than the fusion. The Edge is between the escape and explorer models in size. Fusion was/is a compact where the edge is a midsized crossover SUV.
No Apple car play?
Sorry, I think I skipped over that in my review. Yes. The Ford Edge has AppleCar Play. And you can double check that here: www.apple.com/ios/carplay/available-models/
It wouldn't cost that to rent! J/k
Titanium doesn't come with AWD?!?!?
Wow, usually the high trims come standard with it
It is AWD, he just made a mistake saying that.
I double checked Ford's website and AWD does not come standard at the Titanium trim level. It's a FWD vehicle unless you pay extra. And I agree with Nick R, that's nuts. Then again, the Titanium trim is no longer the top trim level. Maybe the ST gets you standard AWD?
100 Rental Cars my bed then! Canadian version of Titanium comes with standard AWD.
