The short answer is - don't do it.

The long answer is - please don't do it. The dealer is telling you whatever it takes to sell the trailer. A FWD Edge makes a horrible tow vehicle for anything larger than a pop up. At best, you risk damaging your Edge. At worst, you risk damaging your family and fellow travelers. Others will certainly chime in on the specifics regarding weights, and weight distribution, wheelbase length, sway control, etc. but in an effort to head this off ASAP, I would again say.... don't do it.
