Ford Fest Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) CSM 16H0145 LIC Plate # 18F857 Nevada Starting Odo: 22,509 Ending Odo: 22,959 90% hwy, 10% city Rented out of Vegas September 2017 Took it out to Zion National Park and Hoover Dam. I found some of the same issues f2redpot had with the heavy hood. It can't support it's own weight with the prop rod and shakes pretty bad up by the windshield above 70 mph. Switching to sport mode is a must. I liked how the motor would rev when it down shifted. I know the car is a rental with over 22,000 miles, it was in pretty rough condition. For what you pay to rent one of these, it could be cleaned up better. Stripes and splitter will need to be replaced, unless the new owner plans to track it. I noticed either a crack or paint starting to peel on the passenger rocker. There were several paint rashes as well. It definatley turned some heads and started several conversations. Hopefully, I was able to influence some new visitors to Shelby American and possibly some new Shelby owners. Overall, good experience and glad we rented it https://postimg.org/gallery/njsv7q9y/ Edited September 7, 2017 by Ford Fest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
