Question: Ford Edge is the first of what size vehicle to have MyFord Touch?
Context: The Ford Edge is a Midsize crossover SUV that is manufactured by Ford Motor Company. Ford Times was a monthly publication produced by Ford Motor Company.  The first issue was published on April 15, 1908 until April 1917, ceasing publication with America's entry into World War I.  After a more than 20 year break, Ford Times resumed publishing in 1943.  This iteration of the magazine would last 50 years until January of 1993.  The magazines were similar to "Reader's Digest" and "Yankee".  "Ford Times" magazines were 4x6 inches in size and later was 5x7 inches in size.  Each issue usually consisted of several stories about destinations for sports or vacations or of historic interest, by such writers as Edward Ware Smith, Corey Ford, Bernard De Voto, and Edward Weeks as well as promotional information about current Ford vehicles.  Early issues were monochrome.  Issues in the 1950s and 1960s featured many paintings.  Arthur Lougee was the art director then of both the Ford company's "New England Journeys", "Ford Times" and "Lincoln Mercury Times".  He featured in these publications dozens of America's contemporary watercolor artists such as John Whorf, Henry McDaniel, Forrest Orr, Glenn MacNutt, Loring Coleman, Stuart Eldridge, Paul Sample, King Coffin, Maxwell Mays, Robert Paul Thorpe, Estelle Coniff, Glen Krause, JWS Cox, C Robert Perrin, Edward Turner, Ward Cruickshank II, Alphonse J Shelton, RJ Holden, Dorothy Manuel, Frederick James, William Barss, Campbell Tinning, Eunice Utterback, Andrew Winter.  Paintings by Charley Harper and Henry E McDaniel were often on the covers. Ford Sync (stylized Ford SYNC) is a factory-installed, integrated in-vehicle communications and entertainment system that allows users to make hands-free telephone calls, control music and perform other functions with the use of voice commands.  The system consists of applications and user interfaces developed by Ford and other third-party developers.  The first two generations (Ford Sync and MyFord Touch) run on the Windows Embedded Automotive operating system designed by Microsoft, while the third generation (Sync 3) will run on the QNX software from BlackBerry Limited. MyFord Touch (branded as MyLincoln Touch on Ford's Lincoln brand products) is an in-car communications and entertainment system developed by the Ford Motor Company, based on Microsoft technologies.  The technology was factory installed with Ford product offerings and was based on the Microsoft Auto 4.0 software platform.  It was regarded as the next-generation of Ford Sync.  Announced in January 2010, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the technology launched with the 2011 Ford Edge.  Reviews of MyFord Touch were overwhelmingly negative.  A USB drive, self-installed software upgrade became available in March, 2012; this update was mailed out free-of-charge to all Ford customers, and Ford also offered free installation of the update by any Ford dealer.  The update did not address continuing problems with light-touch capacitor switches (on cars so equipped) that control many functions.  Several updates have since been released which allowed for more natural speech recognition, simpler Bluetooth pairing, and refinement of the on-screen interface and menus. The Ford Escape is a compact crossover vehicle sold by Ford since 2000 over three generations.  Ford released the original model in 2000 for the 2001 model year—a model jointly developed and released with Mazda of Japan—who took a lead in the engineering of the two models and sold their version as the Mazda Tribute.  Although the Escape and Tribute share the same underpinnings constructed from the Ford CD2 platform (based on Mazda GF underpinnings), the only panels common to the two vehicles are the roof and floor pressings.  Powertrains were supplied by Mazda with respect to the base inline-four engine, with Ford providing the optional V6.  At first, the twinned models were assembled by Ford in the US for North American consumption, with Mazda in Japan supplying cars for other markets.  This followed a long history of Mazda-derived Fords, starting with the Ford Courier in the 1970s.  Ford also sold the first generation Escape in Europe and China as the Ford Maverick, replacing the previous Nissan-sourced model.  Then in 2004, for the 2005 model year, Ford's luxury Mercury division released a rebadged version called the Mercury Mariner, sold mainly in North America.  The first iteration Escape remains notable as the first SUV to offer a hybrid drivetrain option, released in 2004 for the 2005 model year to North American markets only. The Ford Transit Connect is a compact panel van developed by Ford Europe and derived from the Ford Focus.  The first generation was designed by Peter Horbury and introduced in 2002 to replace the older Ford Escort and Fiesta-based van ranges, which had ceased production in the same year.  It has been imported to the North American market since the 2010 model year.  In North America, the Transit Connect does not have a direct predecessor; the closest vehicle to its size was the standard-length Ford Aerostar cargo van, which ceased production in 1997. The Ford Mondeo MK III (second generation) model was launched by Ford in October 2000.  This Mondeo was considerably larger than its predecessor, and although Ford abandoned its New Edge design theme for the second generation, it was their first vehicle to fully benefit from the Prodigy concept car.  This gave it an overall effect which many critics felt was more restrained and mature, if much less distinctive.  Two of the old car's biggest weaknesses, the modest rear legroom, and uncompetitive diesel version were addressed by a longer wheelbase and the new Duratorq diesel engine.  The basic chassis and suspension design was carried over from the previous generation, which meant that the car continued its predecessor's reputation for class leading handling and ride.  This Mondeo came to Mexico, replacing the North American built Ford Contour, and was sold from 2001 to 2007, when the Ford Fusion replaced it.  The North American market Fusion and Ford Five Hundred/Taurus sported very similar styling, inside and out. The GMC Acadia is a mid-size crossover SUV (full-size until 2016) from GMC.  The first generation GMC Acadia shared the GM Lambda platform with the Chevrolet Traverse, and Buick Enclave.  The Acadia went on sale in 2006 as a 2007 model in the United States and in Canada.  The Acadia replaces three of the 7- or 8-seater vehicles on the Pontiac-Buick-GMC dealership network, the mid-size GMC Safari van, the GMC Envoy, and the Pontiac Montana SV6 minivan for the domestic market.  As of 2009, the Lambda vehicles have replaced the Buick Rainier, Buick Rendezvous, and the Buick Terraza, and then subsequently the GMC Envoy and the Chevrolet TrailBlazer.  A Denali version of the Acadia debuted in 2010 as a 2011 model.  In 2016, the second generation Acadia was repositioned as a mid-size crossover utility vehicle (as a 2017 model) in order to compete within the growing mid-size CUV market against the likes of the Ford Edge and Dodge Journey. The Ford Explorer is a full-size sport utility vehicle produced by the American manufacturer Ford Motor Company since 1990, based since 2010 on a crossover platform.  The Ford Explorer became one of the most popular sport utility vehicles on the road.  The model years 1991 through 2010 were traditional body-on-frame, mid-size SUVs. For the 2011 model year, Ford moved the Explorer to a more modern unibody, full-size crossover SUV platform, the same Volvo-derived platform the Ford Flex and Ford Taurus use although with significantly greater ground clearance.  It is slotted between the traditional body-on-frame, full-size Ford Expedition and the mid-size CUV (Crossover Utility Vehicle) Ford Edge.  Although outwardly similar, the fifth generation Explorer, Ford Edge and Ford Escape do not share platforms.  The fifth generation Explorer does, however, share platforms with the Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT. The Lincoln MKX is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV manufactured and sold by Lincoln.  Having debuted as a 2007 model in December 2006, the first-generation MKX is a rebadged variant of the Ford Edge.  It uses Ford's CD3 platform for the first generation (2007–2015) and CD4 platform for the second generation (2016–present).
