Idea for new Ford SSP

[EXNODRAMANOTCH]

Since I now have my M715 for winter duties, I'm turning in my leased 2008 F-150 in 4k miles and getting a 2010 Taurus SHO for my daily (year-round) driver. I drive 40+ miles per day for work and 25 mpg is a lot better than the 16 I was getting with the F-150. How cool would a SSP version of the SHO (all-wheel drive, 365 horse twin turbo V-6) be? If FORD could get the price down to what a hemi Charger goes for they would probably have quite a few sales in areas that could utilize the all-wheel drive advantage. Just a thought.

I saw the pictures of the new SHO....looks like a pretty sharp car.

I drove a 500 (now Taurus) briefly in-service (non package car of course) and a package Taurus back in '92-'93. I hated the Taurus. The CV tranny in the 500 was weird, but the car was nice.

Hi Bob, LMK how you like it because I'm thinking of getting one to replace the Impala SS.

Will do Gary. Production does not start until the end of July and I plan on getting one in September (probably test drive one in August or as soon as my dealer gets a demo).
