Picked up a 2016 blue jean SHO about a week ago for the wife. I had a 12 SHO and a 13 Exsport so not new to ecoboost's. Loving the sync 3 much better than the Mytouch..

A beauty. Really giving the 2016 some serious thought. Have a 2013 Edge loaded that I love - more than 115,000 miles on it and it runs really well. Asked the dealer to let me know when they have a SHO I can drive. Interested in how it will compare. Also had a 2012 5.0 GT that just didn't work out as a DD, although I really like the new look. So many choices! Good luck with the new car and thanks for posting. Ray

We were actually looking at another car at the dealer and walked by the blue jean SHO. When my wife saw that color it was a done deal. Need to get the windows tinted now..

Welcome Aboard, love the Blue Jean color wish it was about 2-3 model years ago. Even in the rain it looks good. Make sure you get some photos of it during the upcoming Nor' Easter' any interior shots?

Might I recommend a very subtle 5% smoke tint for the headlights. It will sport out the look but not be overly obvious or obtrusive. I normally don't condone headlight films but less than about 5-10% is non obtrusive and depending on how good you know your local safety inspector should pass. I had a 5% on my 2013 Deep Impact Blue and looked great.

If anyone questions tell them it is a "Rock Strike Prevention Film" check color charts but you basically want to go one shade beyond clear. Mine as 5% or 6% I believe.

Love the color and tint....what is Illinois Legal for tint? Texas is 25% front and unrestricted rear. I was afraid to go full 25% for fear of being too dark. I had it done by my installer in Maryland and they had 50% 35% and 25% They didn't have 30 so I picked 35%. Wound up tinting out at 32% by local P/D. I was new to area and he did it as a courtesy no questions asked. The deal was if I was Above 25% no further action. If Below then a courtesy warning with no action allowing me to get taken care of prior to safety inspection.

Did you get the EyeBrow tint? the area above the windshield. Everything I see has no restrictions on darkness only area and non reflective and of course no Amber, Blue or Red. Definitely will help in the summer. I went 5% for Eyebrow tint down to about 4 inches from the top. Legal was lower but interfered with my peripehal vision.
