Used Ford Edge for sale near Chamberlain, SD

My family and I were on our way home to Phoenix from a road trip to visit my sister in St. Paul, MN. As we were driving down the I-90W near Chamberlain, a fairly large deer decided to play 'Chicken' with my 2008 Nissan Armada. Neither party walked away from the duel; the deer still lays on the side of the road near mile marker 265 and the Armada was towed to a towing facility not more than 500 yards from the site of the incident. It was 3am and so the local police dropped me and my family off at the hotel and I filed my claim with the insurance company (Metlife). In the morning I woke up and called a local body shop to have them go inspect my vehicle to see if they could get us back on the road; fortunately or unfortunately the body shop suggested the car was a total loss. I spoke with an adjuster at Metlife and asked them some very important questions: 1. What do I do about a rental car? 2. What do I do about my luggage? 3. What do I do about my Cargo Carrier (metal basket that connects via my towing hitch receiver)? The adjuster informed me that I was more than 30 miles from the nearest rental car company they worked with so I was on my own there. They suggested I find a rental car that would suit our needs (7 people and a bunch of luggage) and they would cover up to $40/day for 30 days. Other than that they'd send out an appraiser in the next couple of days and let me know if they'd pay to fix it or pay me for the loss of the vehicle. Every rental car company I spoke with (hundreds of miles from me) told me they would not let me attach my cargo carrier to any of their vehicles and the best they could do for me was get me a minivan, which would hold the family but not our luggage - highway yard sale perhaps? uggh. :( Here I sit 200 miles from the nearest town with a rental car company, with five young children who are sick of eating from the gas station next to the hotel, with no means of transportation, and no plan in site. I was literally in tears...the night before the police officer and the hotel clerk had suggested I contact the local car dealer because he had been known to help people out. They each wrote down Willrodt Ford and the phone number on separate sticky notes - so I pulled one out of my pocket and dialed the number. A gentleman answered the phone and within two minutes told me that he'd have someone at the hotel shortly to bring me by the dealership and see what could be done. I got to the dealership and explained my situation to Pat - he pointed to a Chevy Suburban that would seat my family and had a tow hitch!! In less than five minutes I was in the Suburban driving back to our hotel to show my wife the car. I was extremely nervous but the vehicle seemed to drive well and my wife said it would work. I went back to the dealership and told them I was nervous about the vehicle and asked if they minded that I have it looked at by a local mechanic - they said no problem and let me drive away again! I was able to get my stuff out of my wrecked vehicle, feed my children, and load our stuff from the hotel into the Suburban...without every signing a thing. I called around to some mechanics asking them to do a look-over and when they heard I was buying from Willrodt they agreed to test drive it but said, "Those guys are reputable. I've never seen them steer anyone wrong and I think you'll be fine driving it to Phoenix." I was shocked so I called the next nearest car dealership and they said almost the same thing. I made up my mind to buy the vehicle. The paperwork process took about 15 minutes and I paid about half of what I expected to pay for a comparable vehicle. Willrodt Ford turned a dire situation into a solved situation (we even made it to Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse!!) and really helped my family out. I'm not sure I'll ever be in South Dakota again but if I were a resident I wouldn't buy my vehicles anywhere else. Great guys -- I cannot say enough to express my thanks.

I owned a 2017 Fusion Platinum and did not want to get a SUV. Knowing the Edge was based on the same platform, I gave the 2024 a spin. I was impressed. It drove, handled, braked, and steered very well. I drove many cars, and even though Ford had not redesigned in a while, it was more enjoyable to drive than the Audi Q5 and Lexus RX. I rated the value a 3 because it is expensive. The Titanium Elite price is in the Lexus/Audi ballpark. I really wanted the Audi because I have owned some in the past, but the Edge was more sporty and more comfortable. I drove the ST and I was surprised that it did not feel a lot faster. This wqas the same with the Fusion. You can tell the ST was faster, but it did not jump off the line like I was expecting. I was disappointed the edge lost some equipment from the past as it is being phased out. So I added it. I added the hood insulation, the engine cover, the cargo cover, LED lighted sill plates, and the laminated acoustic glass on the front doors, all purchased from FORD dealers to make sure they were the real deal. I also added the keyless entry keypad (securicode). I was really disappointed they deleted securicode. The interior is not flashy like an Audi, but I like that it is understated. The carmello seat and door inserts make the car very audi-ish and special. It is too bad this is the last year. The Lincoln Nautilus lives on as the next generation in the USA. I can tell it has roots from the Fusion. That is also gone.

Driving cross country with my son, who was moving to Iowa from Washington state. His 2002 Toyota with 200K + gave up on I90 on the Missouri bridge and he had to be towed to a shop. Willrodt Ford was the only shop in Chamberlin that would make time to look at it. Got there and could plainly see the cracked engine block. Patrick in sales did a great job working with us in my son's budget and set him up in used car that my son now loves. No high pressure sales, no unpleasantness, got back on the road and finished the trip in a lot nicer car than we started in. Only slight delay was they wanted to to a full lube and oil before we drove off. If they weren't so far from Seattle, I'd be looking there for my next car too.

I love the size if the Edge. Big enough, but not too big. I can transport large items, such as furniture. The look is great. The interior is well finished. Enough compartments and gouges, but not overdone. I have the model that has what I think is called 'Vista View' which allows nearly the entire roof of the car to be uncovered from inside allowing a great view of the sky. It also opens which is great because I love fresh air and the feel of being outside. One of the two drawbacks I have found in approximately two years of ownership is that the transmission is not smooth at lower speeds - say under 35 or 40. Not really a problem- just a little annoying. I'm also wondering if the balkiness of the transmission now will cause any issues in later years. The second drawback for me is that the gear selector is a dial. Even after two years of using this gear selector, I have not grown uses to it. It is not at all intuitive; dials are for radios not gear shifts. I do like the car, and I'm happy I bought it. Just use this review as a heads up if you start looking seriously at an Edge.

The very best car I have ever owned! So many great reasons I like it there are too many to list! I would highly recommend this car for anyone to own! Truly a remarkable automobile. Ten times better than a Cadillac I owned!

I love my car and recently purchased it from a dealership as a former rental. It handles well and has an extremely smooth ride, the moon roof provides extra light even when it is a cloudy day !!

Overall had been an excellent vehicle. Owned since 2010. Had to replace the drivetrain 3 yrs ago and now I believe the transmission is a problem. 142000 miles on it and might have to let it go but will probably get a newer one.
