The Edge is a great vehicle that works for a new family. The backseat is big enough to fit a car seat and still have room for people to sit in the back comfortably, as well as have someone in the front seat not be pushed up against the windshield. This was an important factor for my husband so that when I am driving he has enough room for his legs in the passenger seat since he is quite tall. He also wanted to make sure his knees were not smashed in the backseat if he or any other tall person sat in the back. The Edge also has an awesome sunroof that opens up and makes it feel less like a mini SUV and more like a convertible. It's also a V6 engine so it has a lot more power than many of the other mini-SUV's out there. The trunk space is large enough to fit groceries, a stroller, and much more!

Fine car but expensive. In retrospect, I should have leased a similar—but less expensive—vehicle. Good seating for four but crowded for more. Reasonably comfortable for passengers. Nice selection of options, if you are willing to wait for availability.
