More proof the DH SC was to be called the "BOSS?"

We've seen the dash cluster from the Detroit Auto Show car photos. Ford finally updated the catalog to include DH SC hardware and I spotted this...

Great find. This airbox, the dash animation and all the references to the Boss 429 teal color shows it was a last second change for sure.

I was a fan of “GTD-lite” or GTD-S, something that classes it as street version GTD

super interesting the, dark horse boss was definitely floating around as a name, must not have tested well.

I love the idea of killing off the Shelby name, obviously they should’ve brought SVT back and named it cobra
I wouldn’t mind Dark Horse SVT. Would tie in that old Cobra crowd while using a new name without sounding corny.

Just “Boss” would’ve been cool too since that was their in house nameplate.

OK, I'm the outlier, don't like Boss or Mach. Bosses were quite unpleasant when I was an apprentice, being the very bottom of the mechanic totem pole.
I do like SC because I know it means supercharged
Or does it mean Super Cobra... :inspect:

I saw a King Cobra at a Thai Snake show. I'll be buggered if I'll even go near the name.

I like to disassemble things.
2026 Dark Horse SC DCT crossmember. Same part used on '20-'22 GT500. Why spend money on molds to get rid of the snake/GT500 nomenclature if you don't have to because most will never know its there. Farley approved.

Interesting to note...the snake looks to mirror the same incomplete snake that was cast on some pre-production aluminum blower lids back in 2018/2019.

I think they shot themselves in the foot with DH SC. From what I gathered by talking with other enthusiasts it sounds like tons of people really don't get that the DH SC is something completely different than the DH and a GT500 successor. Boss or something like "Dark Boss" would have been way more catchy so people get what this vehicle is
dark boss lmaooooooooo and have a commercial with samuel l jackson……. The libs would go into overtime. I love it

jim farley is the biggest problem at ford
