I believe it will work on numerous Ford vehicles. I'm saying this just from reading the Forscan forum where there are questions about several Ford vehicles. Edge is one of them

Just some advice - before you change ANYTHING in Forscan, use the program to download and save on your computer the factory configuration of any (or all) modules you intend to fiddle with. That way if you screw something up you have the original factory configuration to fall back to.

My MPG readout is 5% higher than hand calculated. I read how to change the calibration number but am worried that it will affect the speedometer and odometer which a both spot on when compared to a GPS.

You don’t need Forscan or a tuner to adjust the fuel economy readout. Access the diagnostic test mode on the screen in your gauge cluster. You do this by pushing the okay button on your steering wheel and turning the key, or using the push button start to go to the run/acc position, not all the way to start. When the diagnostic test mode comes up, you can start the engine. Use the left/right arrows to scroll though the menu. When you get to AFE bias you can adjust the figures up and down until you have reached a close proximity to actual fuel economy.

Yes, depending on the year. I use it on my wife's fusion too.

I adjusted my AFE bias some time ago to 950. Before the adjustment, it was always a bit overly optimistic on the MPG. Now it is about evenly over and under optimistic; sometimes right on.
