2009 Ford Edge SEL

The 2009 Ford Edge SEL is one step up from the base SE trim. The extra $3,000 (approximately) you'll have to spend will add, to the exterior, 18-inch painted aluminum wheels, automatic headlamps with wiper activation, body-color door handles, sideview mirror accents, foglamps with chrome bezels, and a SecuriCode keyless entry keypad. The interior upgrades for the Edge SEL feature a 6-CD changer and secondary steering-wheel-mounted controls and MP3 capability for the AM/FM stereo, a six-month subscription to SIRIUS Satellite Radio, a six-way power driver's seat, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, chrome accents on shifter stalk and registers, a unique selection of cloth seats, aluminum finish on the instrument panel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, message center, EasyFold rear seatback release, and a reverse sensing system.
