I owned a Taurus in the past, but it was a 1994. Back in 2010 when the new body style arrived I was impressed. I have my third kid on the way and needed more space than my little Honda could provide. The SHO just made sense because I wouldn't need to buy a second car for fun like I have in the past. (usually older fox body mustangs) This checked all the boxes and I am happy so far. I think I got a pretty good deal on a 2013 with just over 36k on the odometer. Now I'm trying to figure out how much I need to save to get it tuned. I've been doing a ton of reading on the livernois tunes and they seem to be the direction I'm interested in going.
