~ Recorded Live from KOWS FM 92.5 ~
The 2019 Ford Edge ST with all-wheel drive gets a workout in the Berkshires with Tech Talk commentator Rick DeMeis at the wheel, proving that Ford’s small V6 EcoBoost engine does deliver on fuel efficiency as advertised. Optioned up to nearly $50,000, the mid-size SUV offers plenty of comfort, even when the sporty ST trim’s suspension puts a little more edge into the ride.
