B/c she didn't know how to drive it. Could have put it away for one of her kids or until she felt comfortable with it but thinking about it there's probably more to the story that we don't know. In the video she said she always wanted one so there could be lots of reasons she traded it. Maybe It wasn't all she thought it would be (hard to believe), not enough room having two kids (very likely since she got an explorer) or maybe she needed some extra money. Whatever the case may be I hope she got money back from the dealer.
I know why she traded it in, and personally, I'm glad she did because she's not otherwise driving round a car she can't handle, thus eventually wrapping it around a stationary object because it got away from her.

I saw this car in person at the Fab. Ford Forever show this year and the front end is beat to hell. The thing is not taken care of and the paint job is a POS.
Back on topic I wish I was her but I am also glad she traded it in for something she will use vs the Mustang community having a collective heart attack when she crashs the **** thing because she cant control it. Think back to when the guy won that Lamborghini and crashed it 6 Hours Later

Just got back from our family cruise. The car is going in to get a clear bra installed later this week. I have a business trip to NY the middle of next week and debating whether or not to drive it.

Needs to be more Astony
I knew from the reveal she wouldn't keep the car. I'm sure she had no idea that the Shelby only came in a manual transmission. I'm sure she got the explorer plus cash on the trade in. Congrats on buying a 1 of 1 car!
