Hi Everyone, new to this forum, recently picked up a 2010 SHO, love the car so far. Does anyone know what TBS's may have come out on this vehicle. I did read that they may have had a transmission reprogram? My car shift kind of weird from second into third, it kind of "drags out the shift" not right into gear. Does anyone have any insight on this please. Thanks.

Since I might be loosing my company car to DD I have been working with my local ford dealership to find a low mileage SHO to DD... took at a look at 2015 SHO Non-PP today... black... 20K miles... everything sounded good but there was oil leaking around bank 1 between the head and the block.. it was soaking the entire back of the block.. not sure what that was from.. told them to call me when another one SHO's up.

Sure it wasn't a valve cover gasket leak?  that would be a fairly common thing on the Gen 4.2.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I can attest to the valve cover leak issue.  Took the dealer two tries, but mine is sealed up tight for 15,000 miles now.

Strangely enough, my local dealer also has a 2015 non-PP Black SHO on their lot with the same miles.  What's the chances?

I looked at it yesterday when I was there for my last free oil change.  Looked good, but no PP and no moonroof left me leaving with my Lincoln.

I unfortunately been busy as of late and just realized i'm on my last pale of Methanol and hopefully some resources will come thru and just don't want to get stuck paying the high cost of Hazmet fee.  Z  ::nonono:

This weekend is a no-go due to prep of Daughters B-Day.  Z

Test drove a loaded 2014 F150 FX4 Supercrew 3.5EB today.  Man I want a truck again.  Loved everything except the price.  It had all of the creature comforts of my Lincoln, but could pull my trailers and haul junk when needed.  Just have to figure out if it's in the budget.

Would need a tune of course :)

While I was car shopping to get a small list together. I had it narrowed down enough to take the wife shopping. You know women.......

We were at a Ford dealer looking at their SHO's. I showed her "Truck" prices. She was shocked.

I stopped and looked at a '14 FX4 ecoboost appearance package at a local stealership, and with 38k miles asking price was STILL $36k.  No thank you!
