Hey everyone,

I picked up my first Ford a few weeks back, 2013 Tuxedo Black SHO PP. Looking forward to seeing what the EB engine has to offer. A buddy of mine has the Flex and I've always like it.  I was shopping for an FX4 at first, as the wife and I need a means to tow, but we decided to keep her Jeep (for now) and snatch up this ultimate sleeper. I was hooked after test driving a few!  It will be my daily driver but I am toying with getting it tuned and some other goodies. I think I may be waiting a few months, since we also bought a house and got hitched all within a years time.  :o

Gonna go dig into the forum and see what I can learn.

Welcome!!!! That model was the one I wanted but couldn't find used when it came down to "old car is crap, need new car now in XX price range" Regardless, YOU WON'T REGRET THE PURCHASE!

So what part of OH?
