The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
8.2
7.6

TCC’s Bottom Line
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. Hyundai’s most expensive model may not quite be a Lexus, but it’s impressive in its own right.
