These days, used car bargains are everywhere. Whether you want an old beater, or some serious power, chances are you can find something good for way less than you expect. Since it's launch in the late 80's/ early 90's, the Ford Taurus SHO has come a long way, but so has it's price tag. So can a second hand one fulfill all the enthusiast requirments? Well you be the judge! - Авто та транспорт
I have a '14 SHO I bought used. Yes, this guy is spot on 100%. I let someone else eat the depreciation and got my dream car on an econo-box budget. It is everything I want a car to be. In the city you are sealed in quiet and luxury but the cockpit interior never makes you feel you like you're in a grocery getter. Then for fun you kick in the turbos and AWD makes this behemoth immediately haul ass. The launch is a thrill you never quiet get over it. And because SHOs are so rare, people get out ya way because they see that grill and think you're an unmarked po-po.
Martin Dennis How reliable has it been? I've heard good things about these but I was just curious what you're experience has been. Newer fords in general are very reliable, but again, I was just curious.
Puff the Magic Dragon Reliability was one of the reasons I got it. This is my second Taurus. Had a 2010 first. Never had a bit of trouble out of it in over 90k miles. All I did was the regular maintenance.
Mike Jordan Badass, thanks for your feedback. I know someone who's driving a Tarus that's over 20 yrs old, 23 to be exact, and it's still running strong, and they say Ford's are unreliable lol.
See can't drive that in the hood lol.... For real
Martin Dennis I have a94 sho it's awesome too but unfortunately they well stop making them
I cant beleive how fast this car is with the 3.5L twin turbo charged v6. Alot lighter than the f150 so that helps. This car is a hidden gem. Im getting ready to buy a used black sho. Pretty dam excited.
I have a 14 SHO with Performance Package and I put an LMS tune on it, now has about 460 HP and 450 Torque!! I embarrass a lot of sports cars and performs sedans!
@Mach N SHO yeah but that 3.5 ecoboost is capable of over 600hp as you can see with the Ford GT, velociraptor and probably another car I can't think of atm
The inner engine components are built to handle different levels of power this car would be waaay more expensive if it was able to handle 600
Hey bud what do have for 450hp? Tune meth kit? Termosta.. ??? Exhaust?
@@SexToysYouLikeIt he has 460 to the crank and with 25% drivetrain lose it comes out to about 345 wheel which is exactly what the lms tunes make.
@@JackPepal357 not really without a shit ton of money.
I got a 13 it’s a sleeper all around quietly goes about down the road and a very smooth and composed ride. On the highway it feels superb. Man this car is idk words can’t explain how good it is. I got Michelin’s on mine and it tip toes down the street. I’ve rode caddies Cts xts Lexus on long distance up and down east coast but they don’t compare to the blend of comfort and sportiness. Handling, all wheel drive traction in harsh conditions..... Look I can go on and on about this car. I wish Ford wasn’t dropping it cause this is something you can build on and make great. Perhaps Ford sleeping on it also.
You need to get a tune, you will not believe the difference it makes.
Ajpturbo tune makes the SHO! I can't imagine driving without it now, mpg, responsiveness, torque, hp, smoothness etc
I bought a black 2010 a year ago. Not a SHO. But man it’s a great car. Reliable, huge, comfortable, quiet and powerful. Completely different from my Mercedes AMG, but this is just a beauty of a Ford.
Is it just me or has everyone seem to have forgotten this is actually the 4th gen? The actual first gen SHO was from 1989 to 1991.
Did the 89 have the Yamaha engine?
@@indianapolisjones8045 yep
They dont know. Get a 2019 while u can! Nearly sold out. Production has stopped.
@@indianapolisjones8045 yes . Was great for back in day. All subsequent model SHOs had Ford designed... & more powerful motors . #Fordperformance
@@ryanstaley2200 still quite good! We have 4 newer Fords . All EcoBoost 👍😎 #Fordperformance #Ecoboost
just purchased the 2016 sho yesterday ,and all i can say is WOW .i love this car.thank you to the guy who traded it in with 4800 miles on it.he traded it for the 2018 exact same car.
I picked up my 2010 SHO 3 years ago around 66k miles and it is a wonderful car. 100k mile warranty I had the dealer replace 3 wheel bearings and a turbo for $200. Wonderful interior and can tow light loads at speed. Big trunk and great sound system. The massaging seats are a plus on a long trip. Nice video.
turbo replacement was only $200??
@@worksmarter6418- Dealership warrantied the replacements. The deductible was $100 for the turbo and $100 for the 3 wheel bearings. I was surprised myself that the original owner bought extended coverage up to 100,000 miles.
I have a 15 Show..This is a Luxury Car with Extreme Powerful...Dont BleepYourEye
raced one with a tune in a c5 z06 with a manual trans and it hung with me basically the whole time. turbos were loud as shit too, I'd definitely buy one of these
A family size car with a twin turbo 6 cyl w/ 365 hp 350 lbs of torque 0-60 in low 5’s all wheel drive 20inch rims and heated, massaging and cooled seats and people get out of your way because they think your a cop ........ worth the price of admission if you ask me. Try getting all those amenities in any other luxury brand and you’ll be spending into the 70-80’s K just to have the same .
V B wrong 70k? No way
Karo French sorry but true , example , closest cheapest luxury competitor is the Cadillac CT6 3.0tt Premium with same amenities and AWD currently sells for $88k
I concur. I'm on my second SHO 15' and now a 17'. They are truly a best kept secret. New the sticker is a good $7-10k to much, but you get a TON of vehicle for the money. Sadly, Ford is dropping the Taurus for 19'.
V B people slow down. Rarely get out of your way.
The MKZ is the exact same car with a different badge and grill. ATS-V at 65 is close enough to 70 with a few options.
Great review - A few things folks often overlook, notice the lower door panels extend to the bottom of the car and are sealed. This keeps your clothes clean when getting in and out of the car. A feature Ford has now added to the F150. Also notice the scissor trunk hinges that do not impede into the trunk storage. Both are features only found in much more expensive cars.
Add to that the fact you can also get a Ford Performance certificate which is another plus!
Good review, thanks!
Good review Sir. I'm no professional but I know plenty and agree the SHO is a sweet ride and tremendous value at that price!
you nailed this video , great job
Great car! I've had mine since 2013 and absolutely love it.
ready to change out from my 07 300C RWD which I loved as a “sleeper” road car. Looks like the 4th Gen SHO AWD is the next step so a couple questions-
timing belt replacement is when and approx cost?
any chronic problems with electronic dash glitching or AWD system?
Nice vid... especially like the dash display of the roll-on power.
I have 2013 , Tuxedo black. It is a fun ride!
bought used cars (mostly 2y/o) my whole life, at the end of 2016, i bought a new, loaded, 16 sho, black on silver for ~38k. Daily driver with around 90 miles / day. Couldnt be happier. Car is big and comfy, and boy does it GO.. Nothing like having a 365 TT with a child seat in the back... the joy of driving more than makes up the ~22 mpg/highway. It also has a free perk of most people getting out of your way bc they think you're a cop.
Great video. I've been looking for a modded sho
When I was 16 back in "95, my father took me to the local Ford store. He was there fully intending to get me a '95 Explorer Limited. When we left, I was cruising home in a '95 SHO instead. He was given a good deal on it, because it was literally sitting on the showroom floor for too long they said, and were getting ready to showcase the new '96 Taurus redesign. That's when the hideous ovoid shape was introduced. My brand new '95 SHO was fully loaded with leather throughout and power seats (the leather was tan, and the body was emerald/jewel green). I think that all of the options boxes were checked on this showroom floor model. It was a very awesome car. Powerful acceleration and a great engine growl upon starting it up. Unfortunately though, a very short time later my cousin got into a wreck with it. She said that it was hit broadside I think. She said that there was this bright fluorescent green liquid flowing out from underneath it. The airbags had not deployed either. My father had it transported to a garage for fixing. Since it was there, my father handed to me the keys to a new '95 Toyota Land Cruiser in Moonglow Pearl. After a few months, the SHO was finished. It was $15k to fix it 😮! Since I had the Land Cruiser already, my father donated the SHO to a charity of some kind and received some kind of tax credit. I did like my SHO while I could. The Land Cruiser was safer though. When I graduated from HS in '96, I was by then driving the new Lexus LX450. Cashmere beige metallic.
I wish these had the 5.0 V8 as an option
LS SWAP !!! 🤣
Gt500 power plant
I like the speed of the small displacement eco boost but nothing compares to the sound of a 5.0L v8
These cars make a world of sense on the used car market, good review.
The taurus sho is a great car yes it's a heavy car but with a v6 and twin turbo it has plenty of torque to pull around that weight you won't really know it's that big till your in sharp turns but look you get a big car with plenty of space it's twin turbo these things ride like a Cadillac and you can easily make 500hp plus with just tunes it's a great car if you want something you can carry around your family comfortably plus its awd so that helps not only performance but also in bad weather and it's so easy to make power with these with tunes it's kinda similar to the BMW 335i when it comes to making power great car I definitely will have one of these some day
...An "Old Man's Sedan" that forgot to be one... It's a beast that satisfies the speed freak, with all the comfort and size of a sedan... Long distance trips across the country have to be comfortable as anything, and the car won't attract attention from the cops the way a Mustang or Corvette would if you're just a little bit above the limit...
2 things I'd change is the gauge package and offer it in a 6 speed manual. I own a 2016 SHO PP.
This will be my next car.
Get it! I pulled the trigger on my ‘13 like 3 months ago and I do not regret it
Great review. I always thought the SHO has been slightly over looked and that's what makes it a great car. Diamond in the rough type of car.
I had a 2016 sho.. I loved that car but I had issues with the brakes overheating and thumping.
Siiic, I want a Taurus
I have a 2013 SHO. I have the performance package etc. I have 65k miles on my mile. Love it. 0-60 stock is 5.2 seconds.
Blue Moon Has it been reliable?
GA08GT yes it has. I had a 2010 before that and the 2013 onwards have a bit better build quality. Keeping up with maintenance is very important with the Ecoboost engines. Had no issues at all with my car. Just added a 93 Octane tune by SCT X4 running around 400 hp
I’m looking at one, 2013 with 72k for $16,050 Is it worth it?
Victor Trujillo yes
@@BrewsN_Shoes Might be a little late but I just bought a Mks EcoBoost with 86k on it for 12k with every option on earth even got a full warranty for $700 from Lincoln. Put 3k on it in 1 month and other then 1 slight rattle I love it, people look at it as if it's a 60k car. Probably because you could buy one three years ago for that price, and you would have to be smoking crack to pay that much for this car lol.
Please stop saying wet dream
If he says "enthusiast" ONE more time, I'm going to freak out!
Lol
Moist fantasy?
Julian Castano moist
Good ol wet dream is real nice.....and I think thats what he meant lol
I have a 2016 SHO it's that mother of pearl white. I regularly go at high speeds with it... the perks of living in the middle of nowhere Idaho. For that reason i use z rated continental tires. Threw a air intake on it and a liver nois tune. Well over 400hp and livened this car up. Im currently looking at an exhaust now. We took it to Pheonix and back. Super smooth comfortable ride. It's priceless when you get guys in sporta or muscle cars asking whats done to it when you race them and they look over and you're still there with them 😂
Why didn’t you have it in sports mode I’m showing the acceleration?
very impressed w/ my mine, it was between a srt cherokee & sho. srt were all asking too much for used one. got the sho pp for 17 five @52,000mi . i love it, full size, fully loaded & full of performance. a true sleeper. i either get guys that ask wtf is this after i whooped that azz or they’ll say I know exactly what this is. all i can say is drive one, you won’t be disappointed. oh yeah, i whooped on a srt jeep twice💯
Yep, I own a 13, and at 72,000 miles, it's still a rocket.
Do these have the truck motors? And do they have the same problems that the 1st gen 3.5 ecoboost has?
I found a 2010 SHO non pp with 31k miles that I am buying for under 10k. It has every option. Other than some minor curb rash on a rear wheel/front edge of rear bumper (both will be repaired), the car is pretty much perfect.
i had one and no problems i had besides maintaining it but i got rid of it because it got vandlised and ima buy a new one
Good review! This would be a pretty nice car in Houston ( to the best of my memory, I’ve never seen a curve in Houston 😝), but at 4,000 lbs and that plush suspension, not so great here in the mountains of Colorado. Still a bargain for sure.
Itsalgud1 a boosted car will outdo an NA car in the mountains all day long. That's why they put an MKS up against Mercedes and BMW in a race up the mountain.
Randall Lane I’m well aware of the differences in horsepower decline with altitude between an NA car (about 4%/1000 ft) and a boosted one (about 1%), having owned both here in CO. Unfortunately, a car with Cadillac like suspension will simply not keep up with a car with properly set up suspension over Independence Pass. Of course, a boosted car with good suspension will leave them both in the dust!
I had a 5 speed 91 SHO with the SHO+ package....I let my wife trade it in for a Plymouth Breeze.....about a year later I found my SHO in the junkyard....Yes,we are still married.
why?
Did the 2013 already have lane assist sensors on it because the car you are showing has them
You also have to pull the Engine out to put a water pump on this type of Car. keep that in mind if you buy one if theses Cars
Why was the strip at the back near the tail lights black instead of chrome?
This car is so underrated..... I have a 2015 and it is amazing.... Buy a used one with a few miles....
For the specs n money u cant get better than that
I was considering Cherokee SRT8, you can not find an SRT8 Jeep and Taurus SHO, same year same mileage for anywhere near the same price. SRT8 is always $10,000 or more than the Taurus SHO. The SHO really is a bargain for what you get.
Send this to my father in law, cause then i get to drive it on road trips!
local cop has a SHO..thing is no slouch either...i wish it had a manual tho
agreed I want a SHO but idk
manual with auto clutch.
*sad*
The sho has it to where it’s automatic but you push a button on the steering wheel and you can put it in Manual and shift with buttons on the steering wheel
Needs a third pedal if so it would be a hit 6spd sedan twin turbo awd SOLD!!!
Best friend had a 90 SHO 5 speed manual back in 1995 . His brother had a 91 mustang GT and it could pull a fender on the GT between lights. That being known, we had alot of fun TROLLING unsuspecting GT owners in highschool lol
Always have been a huge SHO Taurus fan. Love the original with the Yamaha built V-6 mated with a 5-Speed transmission.
My husband's 1st car was the 94' SHO with said Yamaha V6 5 speed and he misses it so much he's thinking about getting a 2018 twin turbo with the paddle shifting
I have a 2018 Taurus SHO on my Facebook marketplace with 92,000 for 13,500? Good or fair deal? Also it Same color as this one in video lol.
Someone modded that used one too lol....blacked out front grill, blacked out rear chrome trunk trim, and it's lowered for sure.
1:45 the AWD system is not permanent. The rear wheels engage only after the front wheels detect slippage.
The system IS permanent and actively applying power where needed, including 100% to the rear wheels if necessary. However, I think the point you were trying to make is that the default drive would be 100% to the front (i.e. FWD) if the system detected no need to transfer power. It also uses torque vectoring to transfer power side to side to side in addition to front & rear.
You should’ve had it in sport mode when you slammed the gas.
Add a $300 tuner for another 70 hp & 70 FT# badass
700 dollar tuner
Bill Massey where and what brand?
@@dannyb8022 loot of pep go with livernois
But I heard loot engin blow out lately
Just test drove a 2016 SHO with 30000 miles. Am I in the market to purchase a vehicle? No. It's rare finding one setting on my Ford dealer's lot, new or used. Having owned early generations of the SHO dating back to the Yamaha built engine. I just wanted to drive one. The price was originally at $40,000 (original window sticker was in the glove box since my dealership had leased the car new). They were asking $27,000 for an amazing new looking, loaded light silver with black leather SHO. I found the car had caught other potential buyers interest since I had to wait my turn for the test drive.. After my drive, I found it an amazing sedan. Powerful, luxurious, very comfortable, roomy and loaded with technology. I also found the blacked out grill and large tires and rims add a lot to the looks of the Taurus. If I was looking to purchase a used sedan. This SHO would be setting in my driveway. It's amazing how this engine pushes this large, heavy car to 0-60 in the mid 5s. I ran a couple cell phone timed runs, and it's 5.5 timing is spot on, at least from my primitive timing method. Ford needs to use this engine in an ST version of the Escape Awd. Hopefully it will find another home in the US when the SHO is no more.
My 2011 Kona SHO has been great. With about 2k in mods mine now chews up 90% of what pulls up next to me.
How is it holding up today if you still own it I just bought one with 91,000 MI and it's a 2011 as well but it's fully loaded
@@Feraz69420 DO NOT MODIFY the original engine. The turbos were designed to run a certain way and changing basically anything causes issues. I ran mine with 2 different sets of turbos, other than stock, and had a ton of fun with it but the repair bills and parts have exceeded 50k. She is retired and back to stock and looks like she has 40k on the odometer. Keep the maintenance done on the PTU and trans every 30k and if the check engine light comes on and you smell fuel shutdown immediately. That means you blew and injector and the crankcase is filling up with gas. I did that 3 times.
Oh and only run 93 oct. The girl hates low octane fuel. If you run into any weird issues hit me up. I've been through them all.
@@SHOKona-wp4vr omg thank you so much for replying I didn't think you were going to reply since that comment was over 2 years ago I'll definitely hit you up again if I've got any questions and thanks for your advice
@@Feraz69420 You name it I've been through it with this car. I currently have a slight shudder at 3rd gear that no one can fix so currently that's the money drain problem.
Is the 2010 SHO reliable?
you make some very very fine points. Here comes the but...I"m 6 feet and when I got into the driver's seat, I felt so cramped being the center console is so dam big, my knees banged against it. I couldn't live with this being so cramped. I couldn't wait to get out of this car. Funny enough, the Fusion has a bit more room and I was more comfortable. I ended up with the 15 Lincoln MKZ for about the same price as the Taurus. Equivalent power. I let the previous owner take the depreciation on the car and I got a Lincoln.
Did you know the car has powered seats and you can adjust them lol? I am 6'2 and a big dude, no problem. My wife has a Fusion 1.5.... its def does not have more room.
I drive a Ford fusion now. My next will be the SHO
I have the 2017 Ford Fusion Sport. Makes the SHO obsolete.
Lonnie Wimble I couldn't afford the sport :(
Lonnie Wimble I have a charcoal grey loaded 15 with black leather interior. It's the Ecoboost. I've been wanting to find ways to make it 325hp like the sport but also don't want to void my warranty
From what I hear the Fusion Sport isn't as fast as the SHO stock. It's not much slower at all, like .1-.2 slower.
Akron Ohio You'd have to buy an old one. 2018 is the last Taurus thats gonna be produced.
I have been driving Fords for
decades. I'm 1 day going to get me a SHO. Some day.
Me too. I've always wanted one
2:44 my grandma actually has a 2013 Taurus 😂😂😂
I just bought a 2018 brand new Ford Taurus and it rides very smooth and it's very roomy and I did not buy the Taurus sho but I did buy the SEL model and it's great and a cheaper price now that it's discontinued
I just got a white one, same miles, same price. Love It!
Goes nice with my 94 Mustang GT
I got a 99 mustang, your right they compliment each other
the new fusion sports have 325hp and 380 torque... with a 2.7 v6 twin turbo ecoboost and all wheel drive comes standard.. very fast car.... i snagged me a brand new one 2017 model year on a end of the year discount by far the cheapest price tag for the power and technology the car offers I have seen from any car maker ever.
The MKS is the better sleeper. With my tune I have 425 hp and 440 tq for $599.00 from LMS. You should see the looks on peoples faces when you just shut them down. 0 to 60 3.9
Nobody knows what the SHO is either, they are both total sleepers. Just waxed a kid last week in his little rice tuner, look on his face was priceless (he had his girl in the passenger seat too lol).
The Lincoln badge holds it back from being a sleeper
@@MoistChungus nah, that just makes it even more of a sleeper since the Lincoln name is known to be for older people (even tho I'm 18 and have a 2007 Town car) it just makes people more surprised since they think it'd be slower for luxury reasons
@@testy462 I just bought a Mks EcoBoost and all the older car guys wonder why I bought it then I ask them if they know what a S.H.O is and they all say yes, then I tell them it does 5.2 to 60 lol.
I love the Taurus but hate sitting anywhere but the driver's seat. :)
The passenger seat is ridiculously low. And mine's not power over there either. Lack of rear seat room but it handles great.
LOL I heard the dreaded " timing chain rattle " when he started it for the first time.
Gotta get one
I like the dash and front grill of the 2010-2012 models.
They are discontinuing the Taurus. It's about time for a refresh or a new large sedan.. Crown Vic? 500? 4-door Thunderbird??
Hearing that price for that vehicle in 2023 is CRAZY
Owned a 2013 for a year - I totally disagree with "rear seat is vast" - in your video, when you pan right, it's a tight fit. The size of the car to how much interior space it had drove me crazy. It's the size of a damn minivan.
Fully agree. I owned a Lincoln MKS turbo. Same as the SHO. The back seat didn't have much room
I just bought a 2013 with 62,000 on it for 17000. Its black fully loaded black interior. Sweet car.
I got mine with 59000 for 14500
I love this car one day i will buy it
Permanenent awd?
Every time I buy one the reverse camera glitches and everything is shown upside down. Other than that fantastic car.
I own a 13’ SHO, but am I the only one that noticed the seat is off center to the steering wheel? My back is starting to hurt from always sitting sideways
my Cadillac DTS Performance does that and it is an 06 model with way less power. I shopped both of these cars and I went with the Caddy only because it rode sooooo much better.
chris lawrence Does what? Unless I'm misunderstanding (I'm big enough to admit I could be) the DTS would be a knife in a gun fight if you're talking performance.
Not a grandma's car very masculine inside and out even the dash straight lines
It’s a better more understated vehicle then the Kia stinger which is basically the same class of car. A bonus it sounds better then the Kia
YOOOO BOBBY!!!! I used to go to HS with him!
THIS IS THER SLEEPER YOU ALLOW YOUR KID TO DRIVE IN HS. Yes he /she can get into trouble, but it is SO solid, at least the odds are with him, and he WILL gain respect which is sooo imprtant. Mine was a 67 Merc. Caliente Convert with the cyclone gt 390 pkg,. so I relish my "sleeper" moments of 'rolling glory"!!
i have a 2014 police interceptor it has 22000 miles salvaged titled rebuilt with factory ford parts. it was a detective model all black leather it is not butchered. this car is like new 15,000$
This is my dream car but they don’t exist in Australia 😢
I'll trade you my Mks for a Falcon lol..
Lol how many time are you going to reiterate you are "young"
I wish i would have seen that car for $17,000. I have the SEL model, year 2014 n i paid $23,000 for it but it had 24,000 miles on it.
I bought a 16 SHO with 2 years of warranty left and 11k miles for 24k. Starting price was 30k I walked out after test drive because they refused to go under 26k 2 days later they called me the car is setting in my driveway
I almost bought that exact car but Hyundai in humble never got back with me about it
I'm buying a 2011 for Sonata money, best purchase
I test drove one and it was good except for the visibility. I live in a city where people drive like idiots and having a car with less than ideal visibility was a deal breaker.
What about the weak ptu? That was the main reason I did not buy one. If I would have bought one it was getting a livernois treatment... Which makes the issue worse.
Weak ptu? How so?
As I was researching I saw a lot of people.posting about ptu failures. Most of them were stock. They also talked about the recommended service intervals we're to far apart and the oil is normally cooked. These were mostly daily drivers. This steered me away. I was set on a sho til that.
The SHO actually has a good rep for reliability. The later years the PTU has a drain plug, so you can change it easily like a rear end service. The PTU issue was an issue with all AWD Ford vehicles for a time. People didn't change the fluid because they are lazy and woth no drain plug, it was a PITA.
AVG Joes Garage That sounds reasonable for not buying one. I didn't come across that in my research & I'm happy I didn't. I've put 35k miles on mine in 18 months and it's been a fun 18 months. Thanks for clarifying, if anything happens I'll be back to share.
I would still like to build one up. Still think one would be fun.
How does it look like your grand daddy's car? - this car look darn good-----------------It would smoke 3/4 of the midsize family cars out there " Avalon, Impala, Accord and even some of the high end cars...
Can't drive in New York , cop cars.
I do think they're very underated tho
Great performance, beautiful interior and exterior, but poor rear visibility.
Just bought a 2015. ❤👍😉
2012-2014 Hyundai Genesis R-Spec. Yes please.
Justin Kelly. Taurus with a tune beats the r spec
Donovan Tresch Didnt know we are comparing them modded? 😐
@@JustinKelly I wanted one instead of my Mks but I saw so many with horrible looking paint problems, you also have to put in a lot more then 500 dollars to get 90 pounds more out of a genesis, I'm sure it sounds good better then a v6 though.
A little tweaking and you got 450hp
Gotta watch the torque box, this isn't a 4x4
How you get 450 with what tune? Price?
@@famousbigwes9392 The best option right now is Gearhead All Octane tune -tune will continually adjust realtime to whatever octane you put in, i run 93+ but it will run great on whatever you've got or any mixture of 87 - 94.
You get the good datalogging tuner, New colder plugs from the raptor, upgraded map sensor, and upgraded thermostat, plus support from matt at gearhead who will look at your logs and continue to refine the tune just for your car. $800.00. Add good tires and H and R sport springs and just embarrass people who spent so much money.
If it went like my granddaddy's cars you would have left an impression in the seat when you got on it... lol My granddaddy didn't believe in speed limits or cars that couldn't break them well.
I just uploaded a video where I reviewed a 2019 SHO I rented from Budget Rental car. I rented a 2019 Charger 392 a week back. Maybe if I had driven the SHO before the Charger. I would have enjoyed it better. The sho is too small inside got 15.5 mpg vs the Charger 16.2. I'm not an ecoboost hater because I own a 2016 F165. The sho ride much better but is so damn boring.
Reliability on this bad boy?
Kay Will. I. AM Most newer fords are pretty rock solid aside from the Fiesta and focus with the powershift transmission. Yes I'm sure if you look, you'll find a few people who've had issues but that's the case for all cars. It's not uncommon to see these with well over 100k on them and still running flawlessly, if 100k doesn't sound like a huge amount of miles, you're right, but these cars aren't extremely old and they haven't had the time to get up to like 200-300k yet.
Note: the car is 4200+lbs. and the car he's driving doesn't have the performance package. This car has lowering springs as well.
The car in the video has the performance package
Agreed.
