And we have ... liftoff!  Holy guacamole!
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Why not an ST? Then again I wasn't a big fan of the ST3 seats...the Recardos are a bit too restrictive around my kidney area.

Yeah, me either. I didn't like the bolster in the thigh area--

I found one in VA for $17k with 12k miles.

Do some research on the speed 3's.  I looked at those before I bought my SRT4 Caliber.  They have a tendency to pop motors stock or modded.  Personally knew a few guys.  FYI

That was in the old models something In the factory tune they revised in new models, having an acces port and running an off the shelf map also fixed

So do I man!  I already made it bigger.  I thought anymore, it would blur too much.

Heahah

I got invited to some car show tomorrow--mostly imports. I'm gonna go since I have nothing better to do and support my mate.

I was just thinking about this--outside car looks great, engine bay; f**king mess. Gah, I'm not cleaning her tomorrow. No hood popping for this guy.

If you want an easy way to get the engine bay looking good, Adam's In and Out Spray works great.  Just spray it on and you can use it on vinyl, rubber, and plastic, both interior, exterior, and engine bay.  The other thing I use that works great is Aerospace 303 Protectant.  But the In & Out Spray is really easy, spray it on and then allow it to dray for a few minutes, quick buff, and things look great.
