Detroit debut: Ford Edge

First, get one thing straight. The new Ford Edge is not an SUV. It’s a CUV – a crossover utility vehicle. The sort of car that tacitly concedes most SUV owners never stray from the hard black stuff in their big, beastly all-wheel drive vehicles. Think BMW X5 – chunky off-road style and that raised driving position the ladies go crazy for, coupled with car-like road manners and perhaps a dash of slightly-sane fuel economy.
