Looking at a 2008 for my wife.  If you have one, would you share your likes/dislikes.

TIA

My wife has a 2007 Edge.  She absolutely loves it!!!  Her previous car was a Volvo s60 and before that a Volvo XC70 and even farther back had a Jeep grand cherokee.  She likes the edge over all of those although the XC70 is close.  The Edge handles well and is confortable to drive.  In the 3 years of ownership no issues to deal with.  She is 4'11" tall and has no problem getting the seat and mirrors adjusted for her and I even fit in it comfortably at 6'5".  We do not have the sun roof so know nothing about any possible issues there.

I have driven a couple as rentals over the last year.  They are very nice cars and very comparable to my full time driver...a 2007 Nissan Murano.  The rentals I drove where well equipped (almost everything except sunroof) and it all worked well.  As previously stated, pretty good mileage on the highway.  It was also fairly peppy.

Thanks for the input.  Our mechanic gave his blessing, so we bought it.
