New to the SHO

[giffordt]

Hello all,

I just picked up my 2014 Ingot Silver SHO on Friday and have loved every mile so far. I come to the SHO having owned a 2011 Ford SVT Raptor and then a 2013 Ford SVT Raptor...by far, the 2 best vehicles I have ever owned!

I met a wonderful girl several months ago and she, unfortunately, lives 1.5 hours from me. At 12MPG, I was dumping $100 every third day into the gas tank of the Raptor. As a result, I made the difficult decision to part ways with the 6.2L, 411HP beast.

Not wanting to lose the "fun-factor", I knew I had to give the SHO a try. My new baby is equipped with the 401A package, Driver Assist Package, Navigation, Moonroof, Multi-Contour Seats (charcoal/mayan gray), and 20" Mach/low gloss ebony wheels.

I can't wait to learn more about his amazing car. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Congratulations and welcome aboard!! Ingot Silver good choice!!! I am not 100% sure about the Connecticut‎ marketing are but the Charcoal/Myan Grey seems to be a tough find in some other areas...keep it protected. You are the first one I know of with a 2014....have fun. What part or CT? I am originally from Maine. What does your "New Girl" think of the SHO?

Ditto on some more photos.....

Thanks guys. I'm from North Central CT. The Charcoal/Mayan Gray wouldn not have been my first choice, its just how it was equipped. I got the Simonize up-charge so any stains should be covered...all food, soil and "bodily fluids".

I can't seem to post a closeup picture of the wheel. Its actually a 10-spoke wheel, but 5 are machined silver and 5 are black so it gives the illusion of a 5 spoke wheel.

***I added the wheel pic as my avatar. Best I can do. Anyone know how I can add attachments? My user profile says I
can't.
