Bottomline If you don't require a third-row seat, the 2008 Ford Edge is a fashionable, satisfying alternative in the crowded pack of mid-size crossovers. The 2009 Nissan Murano combines good handling and a recognizable style with a much more sophisticated interior. The 2009 Toyota Venza adds another flavor to the crossover melting pot, but it's a mild one.
