What's the code?

What does Frequency - *** MHZ mean?
That is the Frequency a hacker needs to steal my SHO?

My SHO was built on a Tuesday

Mine was a Thursday child, has far to go!
But gets there pretty damn fast. Who do you believe? Kinda immaterial to me at this point. Just love the one I'm with

There is a link where you can put in your vin and pull up the original window sticker. I will post it when I am on my computer. I can't seem to do it with my phone.

Thanks. I tried another link, but I think my 2011 was to old to pull up. I appreciate it.

Update: The window sticker generator that I have always used no longer works. Maybe someone else can find one that does.

Dang it! Shouldn't have gone to that ETIS site! Mine was built on September (Friday the 13th!) UGH! But...the car has been great with NO issues!
Wonder what this means?... "Rear End Fascia - Level 2"

There are two types of adjustable foot pedals...Non Memory and Memory for 2014. The memory is a setting in the menu....similar to memory seat there is a procedure and also has easy entry exit....when you open door the wheel goes all the way up and forward and drivers seat goes back.

SEL........................ 201A package NON MEMORY adjustable pedals.
Limited.................. 301A Package MEMORY Adjustable pedals.
SHO........................Standard............MEMORY Adjustable pedals.

Crazy 8 the SHO package 1 is probably the 401A Package.

From the 2014 Taurus sales Brochure

Equipment Group 401A – Auto high beams with
rain-sensing wipers + BLIS ® (Blind Spot Information
System) with cross-traffic alert + heated steering
wheel + heated rear outboard seats + rear-window
power sunshade + Audio System from Sony® with
12 speakers and HD Radio™ Technology

Hoping my window sticker arrives today that I ordered from Ford. This "Holy Grail" will clear up any questions I have on my build. Stay tuned.

The window sticker arrived today finally. A nice surprise, it turns out it has the Performance Package. So the FordETIS site was correct when it said it had the 3.16 final drive ratio. It just didn't mention the PP only SHO Package 1. Perhaps someone can answer this; the gear shift selector on this unit has M- Manual, was the S-sport mode and option in 2011?

The 2010-2012 shifters had the "M" mode that engaged the paddles. They will not upshift in that mode. The 2013+ model shifters have the "S" or sport mode. They will upshift in sport mode but will do so more aggressively than in drive and 6th gear is locked out.

I can up shift in M and can run it up right before the rev limiter would take over, I've never tried to go from 5th to 6th simply due to the fact that speedometer is over 110 mph and I didn't have any clear road in front of me.

I think what he's saying is that in Manual mode the car will not up shift automatically. So when I put my car in "M" and speed up, if I don't shift with the paddles it will hit the rev limiter and bog down (and stay that way until you do shift). At no point will the car automatically up shift without paddle input.

Cleared that up for me. Thanks Silver SHO

Sorry I wasn't clear. Thanks, Silver SHO, for clarifying what I was trying to say.

Crazy 8 2010-13 had two RS option packages. 2014-16 reduced them to one basically combining some key features of each one or in SEL eliminating some good features like the 19" wheels ambient lighting etc. The RS ordering package is different than the performance package think of the RS as luxury and convenience items like heated seats SONY stereo BLIS and the performance as performance items .

That is so cool! I can't wait till the 2014 certificates are available!

For all of you pre 2013 owners out there, make a note of the MFT. For all its quirks and the MFT Haters it di have one positive effect. Take Crazy 8 2011 SHO NAV $1850. When 2013 MFT came out even though it still had to be installed at the factory the price dropped to around $800.
