F8L EDGE Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 (edited) Hey everyone! My name is Jen and I just made an extremely difficult decision this past week. I don't know anything but power and racing. Well, I finally got in trouble after racing for years I owned my dream car with over 600rwhp and have been in tears since the trade. I went with a 2011 Edge SEL. Love the black leather and digital stuff. My plan is to lower it, tint, paint the grill, maybe rims and other little cosmetic things to make it more me. I still have my bike fir when I need to go fast. Enough about that. Threads are useless without pics, so here ya go...

cal3thousand Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Sorry for your loss. Welcome to the forum! You'll probably hear more MPG battles stories than races over here, but its a fun bunch still. Nice car! Looking forward to seeing your mods.

F8L EDGE Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Thanks. Yours looks nice. Hopefully mine will look decent when I'm done. Anything beats my 13 mpg I was getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford_Fan Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Jen... WTF were you thinking? I love my Edge, but if I had a Stang like that I would NEVER give it up! Hey everyone!

NWS Alpine Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Jen... WTF were you thinking? I love my Edge, but if I had a Stang like that I would NEVER give it up! I don't think she had a choice. Getting caught street racing is serious. Lucky to still have the car to trade in. Insurance will be through the roof.

richy Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) Jen, no wonder you were in tears! I read the title and my first thought was WTF. Then my next thought was "I bet the rabbit died". (I'm aging myself with that reference; Google it if you don't understand it). Then I read your explanation. Either way it's not easy to give up an awesome machine like that. Years ago, I owned a vintage Lamborghini that I sold to get married and start a family. Still married over 21 years later. Tough decisions get easier over time when you find out how much sense they make. I also have been riding for many years and did so with my profession for 7 years as well. I feel your pain. Ride safe.

F8L EDGE Posted September 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I was very lucky to still have the car. A really fast GTO got caught 2 weeks ago for racing. They impounded the car and crushed it. I had no prior tickets so I guess that helped me. I know I will have the itch to race if I had kept it, so I did what I thought was right. Still really sucks though. But my fault It's getting a bit easier but I have the fear of how it is gonna hurt when I see someone else driving her. So shoulda drove hours away to trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReaper Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Don't get me wrong I love the EDGE but trade a GT500 for one, I don't think so. Enjoy your Edge Jen it's a great vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I never thought I would trade my car, ever. All my friends are shocked. But sometimes things come up that are more important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELation Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 How come you didn't get the Edge Sport? Seems like it suits you better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal3thousand Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 How come you didn't get the Edge Sport? Seems like it suits you better. She's into fast cars. Sport does not equate to faster on the Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L EDGE Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Edge Sports are really nice but as was said, not faster. I got all the options I wanted. I will make it more "me", but not for racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
