A legend to the old man, a hero to the child...
This one is a ‘24 Edge Titanium AWD. She wanted another Bronco Sport, but you couldn’t beat the deal on this thing. Sticker price is $14k higher than a BS and its $130 a month cheaper to lease.

Hey @rusty ol ranger check out the Big screen TV they put in the dash of this thing:

Sweet pea is driving an Edge while her ribs heal. Her German rocket was too low to the ground, and she couldn’t get in and out.

So I drove it the other day. It’s like driving a shoebox on wheels, maybe an Amana refrigerator The whole time I was driving it I was afraid of hitting my knees on the car in front of me. Keep in mind, I drive trucks, square body town cars, and that 78 Mark V. Their hoods are bigger than the footprint of the edge. The doors could be used as a replacement roof panel.

Saw my first ever in person Cybertruck today on I 65 just south of Indianapolis. A few thoughts... first, it is even uglier in person, although the front light panel kind of looks neat. Second, it is much bigger than I thought. it is in the F150/ Chevy 1500/ Ram 1500 size range, and has pretty big wheels. third, the cab front corner windows go to within 10 inches of the front leading edge, cleaning the windshield from the inside has gotta suck.. sorry, no pics of the front. Trying to drive without killing any one

78 Bronco Ranger XLT, 400 2bbl. Time Capsule, all OEM, fresh paint on rust free AZ truck.

From My Classic Car 1/6/24 episode, cruising the coast #27. Like my Lincolns, it was in storage for a bazillion years, and then just freshened up when it was found when the old guy died.

Come to think of it, now I’m the old guy…

I think the Cybertruck is just stupid. A fool and their money are soon parted.

If I had a little more more...

Or a little less common sense...

I would go try to make a deal on this one.

They're probably ready to deal too...

They got 6 on the lot... including the $99k Raptor still.

The Heritage was 76k.

I understand the orange accents, but...

Is it really so hard to find the valve stem that they had to highlight it on the wheel?

I don't care for the "accents" but I do apprteciate Ford taking the brainwork out of locating the vavle stem.
:icon_rofl:

I really think a "tremor" or "FX4" Maverick is counter intuitative to their original goal, but you know what they say about Fools and thier money.
