I had a 2010 and 2013 SHO. They will be collectors in the future I think. I meticulously maintained both, the 2013 had left turbo go out on 74k miles. Having to change the PTU fluid etc. Fun car, but wouldn't have one as my daily. Massaging seat and cooling seats were nice. Traded in for a 2018 Genesis G80 Sport which was way better and more reliable. Now I have a 2023 Frontier Pro 4x and a 2000 Buick Lesabre.
@TheHungryRoad Well the 2010 started to rust at the bottom of the boot lid and needed replacing, poor workmanship of the early models. As for the 2013 (still have videos of it on my channel) when the turbo went I'd had enough. Was looking at around $2k CAD. Loves the car, but I was then done with Ford.
So u say a sho not one of ya daily drive but went n got a 2018 g80 sport lmao, sounds like maintenance was the problem n u probably being cheap so u tell yourself "I'll just get a g80 sport, it's more reliable" lmao.. you'll have maintenance on all cars n I know for a fact a g80 is more in maintenance compared to a sho. Problem is ppl w a sho r cheap when it comes to maintaining maintenance work so they convinced themselves by getting something better n thinking that's more reliable. Lmao 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Got to replace stabilizer bar links and good quality struts. Always use dealership OE thermostat and dealer antifreeze. Small potato maintenance with the wheel bearings. You might want consider leasing. All fluids need to be dealership fluids except for synthetic oil and brake fluid.
Great review, just like the one you did three years ago. I watched them both one after the other because right now, I'm in the process of buying a 2015 SHO PP with around 104k miles on it. Yeah, the selling price is rather decent for its age (around 14k$). However, being in Europe, that's a real challenge/issue since there are very few true American cars around here (for obvious reasons like huge taxes and import fees, and also lack of spare parts readily available like in the US). Surely I want the car, and I can already relate to your story of being your first car in many regards, with all the extras it had for you, and would have for me as well. My main concern would be the maintenance issues that I saw in many videos about this model. Congrats on your ownership of this car, and best of luck with the new one. 👍
Thank you for being a long time supporter! Good luck with your new purchase! See if you can talk them down on that price though. That’s high for having do many miles on it.
@TheHungryRoad i guess. Thing is the consoles have different hardware in different generations. So maybe he just updated past his consoles processing capabilities and it made it slow. But i googled the 2019 SHO displays and they have the square boxes for the colors like my 2016, and they dont have that goofy ford emblem in the background the entire time. I think he did an aftermarket update
I have no idea. I had a problem with the OEM struts and they were replaced with more OEM struts that gave me a similar issue. I’d look into the aftermarket segment to see what’s available.
And why were your colors bubbls when the taurus doesnt have that? You must have uodated your console or sync in that because that is not stock programming, and thats why ur screen runs like shit
@TheHungryRoad yea my ambient lighting is not bubbles its squares. And i googled the 2019 sho and it also had squares. I already found out how it got like that. Theres a qebsite u can put aftermarket ford Sync versions on there and thats one of the options. U may not have but that is not stock and thats why your screen was laggy. Fordlabs does it they can give u custom skins. Mine is a 2017 limited fully loaded. So i know for a fact that old sho doesnt come stock with a more current version of sync. So i did research and fordlabs does it. Thats why u had issues, it was not stock and it was updated past the hardware specs. My screen is super fast my map is loaded before the screen switches to it. The moment i touch my screen it changes and loads. But mine is factory. Yours has been modified

Why’d you get rid of yours?

Great review buddy
Thank you for checking it out!
Sounds like industrial blinker flasher
😂😂😂
DAMN I'M REALLY THINKING ABOUT GETTING ONE
You totally should! I’d go for a 2019 if you make it happen!

Well, I replaced the entire car so… Lol. I feel like dealerships rob you, but that’s another conversation we can have offline.
I have a 19’ limited and fill up every 2 days 😂
Sheesh! You be out here pushing it to the limit!
It sounds way better then my 2016 taurus limitd 😂
Lol. The turbos do add a lil’ razzle dazzle.

Where did you purchase the darker headlights?
No. These are stock.
Hey did you lower it? If so what springs?
I do not believe the car was lowered.
New auto parts have a 50/50 chance of being good nowadays.
Isn’t that freaking crazy?!
That car was made for da homies
Whole lot of space!
The radio could have been swapped out for the 16-19 sync 3 for the newer oem system with CarPlay and still have all the factory features
Well, sh*t. That could’ve been a game changer! I guess I was unaware of that.
Somethings wrong with that screen. Mine is only a year newer and my screen is not slow at all.
Could’ve been a software or hardware update for the 2017s.
@TheHungryRoad i guess. Thing is the consoles have different hardware in different generations. So maybe he just updated past his consoles processing capabilities and it made it slow.

The first owner ordered that SHO cause they come with sunroofs and I seen a few things missing on ur sho
Missing the sunroof, massage seats and the flower wheels I know. What else?
@@TheHungryRoaddid u have parallel park and rear automatic sunshade?
@granturismo315. I did have the sunshade, but the car would not park itself. I ain’t even know that was an option! Lol.
@@TheHungryRoad yeah it’s a park assist feature it parallel parks for you
I have a FordTaurus limited 2011 what kind of struts should I put in front It makes a sound when you trun the wheel
I have no idea. I had a problem with the OEM struts and they were replaced with more OEM struts that gave me a similar issue. I’d look into the aftermarket segment to see what’s available.
@@TheHungryRoad is KYB Struts are good for my front
Thank you
Nice Invicta
Thank you very much! I’m a big fan of the Invicta brand.
FORD🔥💪😁👍💥🚀
They make good products!
And why were your colors bubbls when the taurus doesnt have that? You must have uodated your console or sync in that because that is not stock programming, and thats why ur screen runs like shit
Lol. I did nothing of the sort sir. This is how I bought the car in 2021. Color bubbles? You mean the ambient lighting?
@TheHungryRoad yea my ambient lighting is not bubbles its squares. And i googled the 2019 sho and it also had squares. I already found out how it got like that.
