Ford Edge/ towable or not four down

August 08, 2012, 09:29:34 pm

Have seen where a lot of the Ford products are not as towable as they claim, but what about the Ford Edge.  Appears to be a great car if towable.  Tks DAN

We tow our 08 edge with no issues. 80,000 miles plus another 15,000 towed miles and no issues.

TX:  What do you have to do to tow?// Neutral plus key in accessary and pull a fuse I assume.  Anything else.  Tks DAN

Just neutral and key all the way back. No fuse to pull at all!  Are you looking for a tow car?  Pm me if interested.

Have HHR now and it tows great but it has a real lack of Will look after the 13's come out.  Need something that can tow a boat.

Ann understand. I would look at a jeep grand Cherokee.  Easy to tow plus will pull a boat. We are looking at a new Cherokee Overland now. Love the edge but it's time for a new auto!

Hmmm, maybe so. They tried this about 3 years ago and sales failed.  I will keep an eye out for it.
