Just stopping here to say Hi. Picked up my SHO about 6 months ago and love it so far. Coming from a 2011 WRX before this. Just had a little one and needed somewhat bigger of a vehicle because of dad life 😁

Live aboit 1.5 hours east of Pittsburgh, work as an engineer by trade and hoping to learn a lot more about tuning and how these cars function in that aspect!

Welcome to the community, glad to have you & your SHO here!  What do you think of Subaru's 4WD/AWD vs Ford's?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

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!

Traction makes it a hard comparison as far as winter goes. Oem all season tires aren't great in the snow. I had Michelin xice on the WRX in the winter and it was a tank. Dry road, they feel similar traction wise. Ford stability control really seems to work well. I've taken some turns pretty hard in the wet where it saved me.

I can really tell this thing is heavier though in handling. The WRX was more agile for sure.  Still I was pleasantly surprised at how well the sho drives for being as big as it is!
