just didn't drive it much. When I found out how much paint repair was for the (2) dings and scratches the original owner put on it...and me being OCD...I got rid of it. Would have been better if it was the original black color.

I've seen the car a few times and it has a lot more scratches and dings so the new owner is not as OCD as I am and obviously enjoying it.
The Boss.....well, she liked oil.....ALOT!! A quart @ every 1000 miles for the 7k+ miles I put on it before I got fed up with it and corporate Fords excuse that it was normal for a Boss to use that much.

I'm OCD about scratches and dings. To fix the issues the original owner put into the car would have cost over $1800 because of the custom paint job on the car.

Hey David, I was sooooo mad about that contest. She was like a soccer mom who didn't even know how to drive manual. Then she traded it for a van or something. She had no idea what she had...and that stupid color... I wonder if she won because she had 2,450 soccer mom Facebook friends helping her with votes, or if it was just pure luck. Can you tell I'm still mad??!
