      well I can say there are far less a-holes here than the other forums i regular.

      the taurus guys tend to be overly cocky.

You'll know what I'm talking about when your wipers park perpendicular to the windshield.

        There are plenty of panther modders here. And of course we have great tech people so they can help you with whatever problems you may have.
        Babyblues, wiper motor is running great for now lol

          I didn't realize it was possible to be cocky while driving a Taurus...

            The '90 Taurus SHO we had tore up Mustang GTs, Camaro Iroc Zs, and Diamond Star Turbos on the highway. We were very cocky with that thing. It was to be replaced with a Spirit R/T with major boost that slaughtered the new LT1 Vettes.

                The only decent Taurus' are the SHO's with manuals, the others blow. I drove 2 80's Taurus' today, both are dogs and pieces of shit.

                TQ, you got any pics of either of those cars?

                  Yea, I hate the taurus, I own one enough to know exactly how much. It has the standard 3.3L V6 slug. After DD'ing it for a week straight, my Box felt like a Hot Rod, after going back to it. It does have decent Interior space though....

                  It's just a A-B car to me, and It's probibly gonna become my permanent DD pretty soon. So that I can take the 87 off the road, and start to bring it back to a Show-Quality Car.

                    That's understandable, I'm working town, and I'm saving up for a... (don't hate me) 4 cylender compact for DD'ing...

                      You know, a modern, properly designed unibody with passive restraints and an interior engineered to be safe for us will out perform most BOF cars in a collision. If you want safe, check NHTSA and IIHS crash test results.

                      I don't, but 1987cp might have a pic of the SHO in the background of one of his pics. The SHO is still owned by a friend, but after eating two Level 10 massaged Mazda manual transmissions, it has been parked. It's now pretty rough, but is also for sale.

                      The Spirit R/T belonged to the same friend, but was sold after it tore up a few rods from the excessive boost. IIRC, it pulled about as hard as his GTS on the highway.

                      I thought the egg Clitoris came with two 3.0 V6s, the DOHC and the Vulcan? Do you have the reliable "Live Long and Prosper" Vulcan 3.0?

                        Not sure, haven't researched it yet. Maybe you can tell me.

                          thanks for covering that one for me...

                          yeah the 90 SHO left maany a mustang gt guy hiding his face in shame.

                          the 2002 SE I had was actually a nice running car... wasnt fast but I thought I was getting out of fast when I had my kids... looks like that didnt work out too well.

                          one of the few pics of the SHO i have.
