I was talking about wanting an Edge Sport. Assume that Jim was talking about an Edge SEL with the 3.5 V6, which is a mid trim level that Ford uses on its cars and SUV's... (S, SE, SEL, Limited, Titanium...)
Lots of new street cars are scary; I've driven recent Corvette C6's, Boss 302 Mustangs, and they go as fast as my old 426 Street Hemi Mopars (I had two of them in the early 70's). A Lambo is a quarter mil so you'd have to be committed. A Challenger Hellcat has 707 hp and is 60 grand so you could buy one with good credit.
22 year old girl next door just graduated from school and bought a new Mustang GT and didn't even know how to drive a stick before she bought it...chose to live with her parents instead of spending her bucks on an apartment.
Hope she doesn't drive it while drunk or get it out of shape at high speed--that could be a fatal combination.

Personally, I've never bought a vehicle on credit. Cash is King
You lose too much money buying on credit
I just make payments to myself (save) and then buy
Next new vehicle is going to be a C7 next summer.

The torque steer is new to me. The 4 wheel stuff I drove was all RWD, Mustang 302s mostly. And this one winds up just like the sportbikes but runs into the rev limiter at 6450, that's about where a sportbike starts its powerband. Still trying to get used to that. jim
