Ford Taurus SHO

I know, perhaps a dramatic decision.  After my though, I’m ready to call this one adisappointment of a large caliber. The SHO has all the right ingredients on paper:  modern, attractive styling, tons of gizmos, Twin-Turbo DI 24v V6, Haldex 4WD, a paddle-shifted 6 speedautomatic, tons of power and immense low end torque…But as you learn, things that sound great on paper don’t always translate into the real world.  Especially when you’re getting into a car expecting it to be an SHO. The old SHO was all about the howling YamahaV6, it was a budget  BMW or Audi for those that wanted to be different.  The new SHO is just an EcoBoost motor (which is admittedly awesome) in a loaded Taurus.  It feels overweight and underexcited about theprospect of propulsion.  It’s quick, but it’s like a quarterback that would rather watch the gameOnefor the 300C crowd, then…
