Does the Edge 4x4 come with 4:10 rear? I like the color matched bumpers and flares.

Yep. Some are open, and some have Limited Slip. My Edge has 4.10's stock, but it has an open differential, for now.

Is there any advantage of the manual vs auto on these trucks?

Autos can tow more and don't have the problematic slave cylinder

Yeah if there isn't a clear advantage of the manual I'll just get an auto. Easier when towing

you might as well not even mention the front skidplate.. those things are only good to look at. you put it to use and it caves in instantly.

I have a 99 XLT. Factory 4.10s, factory L/S, all skid plats, 4x4, #1 bars. So I dont get the alcoas, tires and bilsteins.

Not worth waiting.
