Hello all,

I recently purchased a 2013 Tuxedo Black Metallic PP SHO.  Love the car so far!!!  Have had quite a few different vehicles in the past years from Chevy to GMC to BMW's and this car gives you everything you could need.  I am coming from a 2011 F150 Platinum with the EB so I am not new to the motor but this moves when behind a much smaller vehicle!!!  Have some questions which I will post in the discussion forums but wanted to introduce myself. 

Cheers!
David

Welcome, David!  Those Tux Black SHOs are definitely gawkworthy, both for looks and speed :)  Please do post some pics when you get a chance so we can feed our mania!

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!

Welcome aboard EBPF :hi:

Nice to have you register up David :newbie:

Not sure if most would think the SHO is a "small" vehicle, but given you came from the F150, I can see what you're saying.

Enjoy your time around these here parts. An eclectic group of spirited owners for sure.

 :WELCOME: Hope you are enjoying the new car! I came to the SHO from  an F-150 and Lincoln Mark LT, so I completely understand what you are saying about the SHO feeling smaller....I think it will really grow on you quickly!

Thanks guys, info enjoy these forums and the wealth of information that is available on them!!!

Here is the best 2 pics I have at the moment. Unfortunately I have already had some issues with the PTU so it's been in the shop since Wednesday, I may be exchanging this one but I have 30 days to decide, here is the car nonetheless.

Fiancé in the front seat thought the world of me taking a pic of my car at McD's after returning a redbox hahaha
