    Excessive Tire Wear

    In 10 years with my SHO, I am on the third set of Michelines. I have never had wear issues or alignment issues. Be careful not replacing all four on a AWD vehicle. Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

    2010-2012 Wheel/Rim Color?

    You are correct, hyper silver. But, there is no touch up. Let me know if you find a good match! I've not had any luck in a perfect match. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Bluetooth Stopped Working - Anyone else have this happen?

    I had this problem with some phones. Once I went to Android 8, no problems. Seems to be the Bluetooth profile on some phones.... At least with my 2010 SHO. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Compliments and Look backs

    I share many of the same stories. I've had folks honk at stop lights to ask about it, folks yell out their window asking what it was, and just recently, a guy stopped in the median as I was turning to tell me how awesome it looked and asking what it was.... Then there are folks in the car amazed...

    Extended warranty help

    I bought the extended warranty from Lombard Ford, who sells these very very cheap. It's really a gamble....8 years later and I've never made a claim. Mark Contact: Jack Guisti, Jr Lombard Ford, Inc. Internet Ford Protect ESP Mgr 1-888-743-4668 Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Car was very easy to keep clean, I was often accused of washing it daily, though was often only washed once per month. I had it done again last year for $600, holding up well...

    2019 Taurus up on fordvehicles.com

    I suppose the 2019 will be the rarest of all model years 2010+. Seems like they are up for a six month run. Wasn't the 2012's made for about 8 months as Ford pushed for the redesign...? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

(Fingers crossed, now at 105k miles) My oil changes were Ford blend by the dealer for first 55k, and since then has been on Amsoil Premium. (FWIW - My wife had a 3.5 Nissan with 23k miles and the timing chain...

    Vibration at idle

    There is a wire that runs long the top of the engine to a sensor. Often it can wear and short against the block. There is a whole thread on that here somewhere. I'm sure others might chime in with a link to that thread. I took a photo from mine and you can see where I tied the wire to keep it...
