Hello all.  Ive been lurking around the shadows for quite some time now trying to find things out about my SHO.  Ive had her for about 2 years now and I abosolutely love her.  I have always been interested in them since they first came out and knew one day I would get one.  The car mentioned is an '11 non PP.  My previous car was not great for long commutes to work so I decided to upgrade my 99 Mustang GT to the SHO and am glad for it. 

My plans for the car right now are to remain stock at least until the extended warranty is up.  I have always been into mustangs and have had many over the years and currently still have one that is a crystal white 99 cobra.  My cars never stay stock for long and always looking to push things and see when they break to give me all the more reason to upgrade to bigger and better things. 

Im glad to be part of the forum and look forward to learning more about my car and hopefully contributing once again on another forum to help everyone with this hobby that we love and cant get enough of.

I will post picture of both my rides once I get home.  GOVT computers wont let me access photobucket.

Ahhh gotta love it, right?

I always bang my head symbolically when I get the prompt that reads something like "Your agency forbids access to this domain" or blah blah blah.

Anyhow, welcome aboard.

Thank you for the welcome, I'm already loving the atmosphere of this site already.  I've been a member on some and moderated others where people think that they know everything about everything.

Man, that is CLEAN under the hood of the Cobra!  Why is the van parked so close to the SHO :( ;)  Whereabouts in VA are you?

Thank you!  Still got a little bit left to do to her in there. I'm in the Hampton Roads area, specifically Chesapeake. That van was my neighbors when I used to live in Virginia Beach. You familiar with the area? That was my parking spot when I was switching out cars to wash.  The front area in front of my house was already taken up so it was my only option:lol Trust me, other then that my cars pretty much stay away from everyone else.

I've made a few "detours" to the area, but mostly Williamsburg, Virginia Beach as my POI.  I'm about 4 hrs away near Silver Spring, MD.
