Just wanted to give some background on how
I came To find this forum .

I'm no stranger to cars, or anything really that involves a wrench. I've had the car in my signature since I was 15 and the wife and i finally found the perfect family car last year with our 10 SHO. I recently found I could use a place where people know these cars and feel after looking around here is that spot.

Welcome, Gear_Head, thanks for the kind words :). Any mods planned for the new ride?
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!

I'm not sure what I will be doing to it. Right now I've just been swapping out to new fresh synthetic fluids and correcting the paint to remove micro swirls that annoy me

Ideally it will get a tune and exhaust, but the exhaust would have to be tame to fool the wife.

Only pic I have thus far  I've changed the tint around and darkened the back up considerably. Still need to remove the pinstripe, Polish the clercoat, and blackout the gray inserts around the driving lights
