Had some unfortunate problems come up with my Tbss and traded her in. I was sad to see her go. I am now a ford owner. I purchased a 2011 Ford Edge sport. Love the gadgets and looks of it. Performance wise.....well....it's not fast. Lol.





(Pic of the front of the cuv is not mine...I realized I have no pics of the front yet).

 

[Mooseman]

What happened to your TBSS that would make you trade her in?

 

[jrSS]

Transmission issues. Already had it replaced under a warranty I purchased. (Which now is expired) I wasn't about to shell out the money for another tranny.

And I was just getting tired of it. The thrill was no longer there. It's bittersweet I guess. I will miss it I'm sure.

I am in Shock

 

[Matt]

Well, shit.

 

[jrSS]

I will be lurking still. Met so many friends on this forum.

Nice ride. The wife has been looking at the Edge herself. Tons of gadgets though.

 

[Sparky]

So, we should have an admin change your name to jrTraitor

So how long until the mods start? Just cuz it's not fast now, doesn't mean you can't make it fast!

 

[SnowBlazer]

Not a ford!

 

[Sib]

Sorry to hear about the SS but the new ride looks nice. Stick around and keep us updated on your mods.

Coming from the guy who was going to give up his TB for an import rice burner

262,350 miles on the F150. Cannot hate on that

Was thinking the same thing... I'd hate on an import harder than Ford.

Anywho, sucks that you had to let her go Jr but I'm sure it got annoying with the repetitive trans issues.

 

[jrSS]

I am not brand specific. I've owned Chevy....dodge...ford.... I liked them all.
I however will never own a Honda. Lol.

Anyway I knew I'd get some feedback from this.

My wife has had 3 ford edges now (she likes to upgrade vehicles often) and they just seemed to grow on me. They are reliable and are a good vehicle all around. (Yes I cannot call my crossover a truck). And no my ford didn't come with a heated hatch or a dog so my hands would stay warm and I'd have a companion when stranded.

 

[littleblazer]

I friend of mine has one. That fuse panel under the dash is an absolute pain to change fuses on though. Just in an awkward place. (Don't ask how I know.) Have fun with the new toy though.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

You had one clean SS too. Sucks it has left you, but congrats on new ride.

 

[Mooseman]

Did you leave some clues in the truck to lead him here to fix it?

 

[jrSS]

It has been lowered. (Lowered it about 1 month ago) Even tho it's not my SS I am starting to like my new ride. Updated to interior LEDs......green air intake filter...k&n cabin filter..... ford badges blacked out. Still have lots to go.

 

[Blckshdw]

Time to update profile info me thinks

 

[jrSS]

Vinyl wrapped the chrome pieces on the grille

Before

 

[Boricua SS]

Comin along smoothly bro. You're just like me. Can't stop modding the daily drivers lol.

 

[jrSS]

Thanks! I think it looks good.

Little photoshop action. Diggin the black chrome with the darker accents.

 

[BlazingTrails]

Bro, Gmtfordnation.com......

 

[Mounce]

Oughtta open the headlights and black out everything but the projector lense and reflectors.

 

[jrSS]

Does anyone have a issue with me posting on gmtnation with my edge? If so I will leave. I've been a descent member and have contributed to this site and have met many friends.

These one liners I get about me having a ford....I can't tell if they are sarcastic or what. But if anyone doesn't want me here I don't have an issue of not coming back.
Thanks.

 

[Mounce]

I don't mind it but hell, I talk about my ford more than the TB (in the whore thread, behind the scenes of the site) because it's my DD and has more issues and mods than the TB. Fords are an off topic item on a GM forum, your thread is in the off-topic discussion section, I see nothing wrong with you continuing to hang around.

 

[jrSS]

Thank u good sir.

 

[Matt]

I don't care mate...I'm not a Ford guy but I do like the look of yours.

 

[Blckshdw]

As long as you're modding it, I won't ban you.

 

[BlazingTrails]

Funny, my Honda build thread was shot down. So I guess as long as it's an American vehicle your all good. Love your attitude btw.

Learn to cut up with the guys imo

Gmtfordnation.com ftw

 

[Mooseman]

You caught the mod bug here so mod on!

Hell, I saw a Hoe that looked like an Expedition.. We might have some cross breeding going on here.

 

[jrSS]

I am stuck on what color to powder coat the wheels. Hmmm. Comp grey or a black chrome color. No black this time.

Already bought some HIDs. 6000k color from daylitebrightlights.com. Man they also have some sweet led tails tooView attachment 70142

 

[Capote]

Black chrome would look killer. Murder this Edge out [emoji41]

 

[jrSS]

See I like a little contrast tho.

 

[Capote]

Black chrome the chrome, keep the gloss black as is

 

[Boricua SS]

Black chrome ftw!

 

[jrSS]

Some pics of the edge.

I can't stop f*ckin modding this thing lol.

 

[Capote]

Better not stop modding it, once you start, there's no stopping

 

[jrSS]

Yea. My wife has owned 3 edges and not once did I touch it. Have had mine for about 3 months and have spent more $$ than I wanted to and it's still not done. Lol. I want to mod hers but I guess that's a no go. Hids are next.
