Expert Reply:
According to our friends at Thule, the OutWay 2 Trunk Mounted Bike Rack, # TH45JV is indeed a fit for your 2009 Ford Edge. If you have ever used a trunk mounted rack before, you will really appreciate how fast and easy the ratcheting mounting hooks of the Raceway are to use compared to the buckles and straps used by other racks.
For women's bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # TH982XT is recommended. The adapter spans the distance between the seat post and the handle bar gooseneck, and provides a level attachment point to the bike rack so the bike is not carried at an angle.
