Winding down June.

Terri trying to buy an Edge to replace our Escape.

Dealing with all the other current crap that comes down the pike.

Y'all be safe out there in the heat.

So we made a trek over to Meridian & our sales person delivered our "new" 2020 Persian (?) green Edge SEL.

26K on the clock. Ford Gold Certified Warranty for a year. Lease turn in from Wisconsin. Well cared for.

So I'm a guy that was impressed if we had FM or AC in anything we had growing up in the 60s-70s.

Dig this: Makes 25 HP more than my Fox 5.0 with half the cylinders.

Turbo charged, Direct injection, dual over-head cam, 4 wheel disc brakes.

AWD & 18 inch wheels/tires. 3.80 gears, 8-speed auto. 160 MPH on the speedo

We had to do a software update(????) The electronic monitoring & entertainment system is incredible, even 3 years old.

Could have had paddle shift if we got the titanium we wanted.

The paint is like Mystic. It's blue in 90% of light & teal to deep hunter green in the others.

Real definition of paint that "flops"

Wife loves it. Has been studying for 3 days.

It's amazing the power they can pack in a small package now David, the 6 banger in my Chevy Impala puts out 305 HP and passes vehicles like a rocket...lol
