Extra: Conan's Taurus

[@countvlad8984]

CONAN DROVE A MANUAL!... BLESSED BE THIS DAY!

[@carloisokessu7756]

Yeah, can you imagine. I noticed the same and was thinking like, do they have manuals in america?

[@MIKEK3NT]

Lol Conan and Jay L. are car guys of course they should know how to

[@TrueGamerX]

Conan drives stick shift. I'm always finding reasons to love Conan more.

[@Kemoswavvy]

That thing is an SHO.....aint no ordinary Taurus! Those things are considered rare and sought after now lol.

[@TheMoggFREE]

no wonder he kept it all these years.

[@luckyduckydrivingschool3615]

This car is awesome.

[@Anon_E_Muss]

Back when Ford made a decent car. Wow.

[@Street-Shred82]

He always leaves that part out too. My guess is that it sounds funnier if the audience is under the impression that its just a plain taurus.

[@anareel4562]

I've owned 3 SHOs, a gen 1 and 2 gen 2s, great cars.

[@TheMoggFREE]

Jay Leno has thousands of expensive, custom, antique cars that still run. Meanwhile Conan still has his 1992 Ford Taurus SHO and still runs. Tells you a lot about personality.

[@maxwell6504]

thousands ? he has like 120 cars and most are not owned by him.

[@turdferguson2982]

Jay Leno has a team of guys who work on his cars, Conan spends his Saturdays changing the oil, rotating the tires and tracking down wiring issues in his SHO while drinking cold domestic beer out of a can. Conan is the working class hero that Jay pretends to be.

[@TheMijman]

@@turdferguson2982 Im not sure Conan does any of that

“Conan’s car... now Leno’s” written in the dust lol

[@NESherv]

1:04 [muttering under his breath] "I can't believe I still have this car."

[@TheRzarectah]

He just mentioned yesterday to Matt LeBlanc that he still owns this car. He should restore it completely.

[@williamjameslehy1341]

I'd rather take a road trip with Conan in his "92 Taurus than with Leno in any of his fleet of ~million dollar cars.

[@igkgigoh]

That random hostility sounds really stupid.

[@igkgigoh]

Not Berlin, try again and I’m not a false prophet, you sniveling boiiii

[@meekmeads]

Yep, I don't want to be "stabbed in the back" by that chin

[@04dram04]

Chill Leno is cool

[@raisinnotnice]

as much as I love Conan I love Leno more, he's got a freaking McLaren F1!

[@BernonCars]

The Taurus SHO’s are great cars

[@tedd7545]

I also thought I had a contract with the tonight show hahaha! NICE DIG!!

[@mfm0049]

Just noticed Sona’s car is in the background. 0:51. White lightning!

[@nl5828]

More like "Sickle Cell Anaemia"!

[@GapedCeiling]

it's a SHO....that thing smokes corvettes....it was built as a middle finger to chevy cuz it had more power than the flagship sports car from chevy and was labled a FAMILY SEDAN.

[@kodyjohnson6294]

WookedoutLINK it was built as an accident. Ford ordered the sho motor from Yamaha to put in a version of the probe that fell through. When the motors arrived they decided to shove them in their midsize sedan instead, thus began the sho. The sho was an animal in its day but it wasn’t built to put “a middle finger to Chevy.”

[@bgreen97]

This is Conan in his depression era I'll bet. You can tell kind of. He's kind of pushing it to be entertaining, there's a hint of anger here. He's probably a tad emotional too because his taurus probably remind him of his early success at NBC, which had recently come to an unwelcome end.

[@AnthonyGuidetti]

It’s a ‘92, which probably means he bought it in ‘91, but even if he bought it in the same model year, this would’ve the car he had as a writer on The Simpsons.

[@itsrightbehindyou]

He has mentioned that he hated "established" press like 60 Minutes. The old style of writers who find eloquent meaning that has nothing to do with Conan's story annoys Conan. He prefers the casual, quirky artists and little known writers and people who can understand him, instead of those professional crews that are trying to use him like a performing monkey.

[@harryc5661]

0:50 is that Sona’s VW in the back?

[@gregorypappas766]

The sho was awesome back in the day, sleeper for sure, 220 hp Yamaha worked over V6, the headers look beautiful btw, five speed manual, I'm glad conan still has that car...

[@extendedmags]

"There are a lot of things I thought I had" Oh Conan how you make me smile :-)

[@AimlessAbyss]

"Conan's car" written in the dust.

[@nl5828]

“Now Jay’s”

[@woodstocknun]

i love that Conan still held on to this car.. and even shipped it over to LA.

[@Somewondude]

Taurus SHOs are actually collectors items now

[@MastaGambit]

1:43 - 1:50 I know he stated in the previous 60 minutes interview that he's fine and great n' everything. But from that little 7-second excerpt, I can just TELL that he's somewhat hurt by the whole fiasco, and he has every right to be.

[@RealCoolGuy]

Ford Taurus actually was a sexy car at the time. It was the first car to abandon the boxy look of the '80s and make everything super curvy (spawning the ugliest era in car history). It was so futuristic-looking, they featured it in the RoboCop film.

[@cliffshockley4406]

When I got my license back in 1992 I wanted a Taurus SHO so badly!

[@donnerak]

conan looked good ripped and with beard

[@mmz77]

@bigfatjohn120 SHO Taurus. Super High Output. 3.0L Yamaha built engine. Good for 0-60 in just under 7 seconds.

[@Ragnark1]

"You have liability insurance?" "...No, I gave that up... I also thought I had a contract..." Ouch...

[@NekoSOM]

I can't believe he still has that Taurus. That is so awesome.

[@Jhihmoac]

Still seems to run good...Those old SHOs can boogie, if you keep 'em up...

[@jane_se.]

every now and then I come back to this random video and watch Conan drive an old car

[@glennw7118]

The SHO was actually my dream car. I had a brand new 88.5 Escort GT because I couldn't afford the insurance on an 88 Mustang GT. I never got SHO because it lost its way and tried to go upscale, lost the manual and added a V-8. Then Ford tried to try again but the car was too heavy and the turbo V-6 wasn't the same as the original. I retired in 2016 and purchased a 2017 Mustang GT Grabber Blue PP with a manual. I still own it and love it even more today.

[@TheLostDude7]

Love Conan. Fuck cars man, as long as you can get to your destinations, you don't need 20 multimillion dollar cars like Leno.

[@Rowsdow3r]

Real missed opportunity for a car wash segment.

[@BenjtheMan]

01:47 wow, actually heart breaking to hear his 'sarcastic' laugh when he says that. Conan's so pissed off right now.

[@swingAE86]

conan knows how to drive

[@Firebert]

Wow, Steve Kroft and Conan actually have some unexpected chemistry.

[@keithjohnson839]

Had a 92 taurus and had so many issues with the body that we ended up covering the whole body with aluminum tape and spray painted The Terminator on both sides lol! I miss being a teenager

[@Vahe.G]

the taurus sho is a monster tho a true sleeper

[@thENDweDIE]

Before I drive, I always check my eyes...you know make sure they're all there

[@jpoplover350]

Conan is so nice.

[@giantred]

well I am thankful for the ads as annoying as they may be because it allows for free video watching

[@uptempo5318]

WOAH HE DRIVES MANUAL! Also who else would love to just clean that car with a pressure washer and some soap

[@bmwjonathan]

The FORD Taurus its amazing!

[@BrutalyStoked]

manual taurus sho thats what im talking about

[@carleynorthcoast1915]

SHO in manual are actually in demand now, and regular Taurus in auto is of course a harsh beater

[@ottodob]

Sleeper. Conan has all the street cred imo...nobody even realizes how cool this car is, thats how cool it is

[@Scrapla1]

The SHO's were great cars and very sporty for the time. If you took care of them they would last well over 200k miles!

[@enjoythesho1992]

I have a 95 automatic with 280k still runs and drives

[@rodirby5952]

Wow, U got my 95 SHO auto beat by a 100,000 miles, it runs as good as it did new

[@Fancynips]

yeah if you have chrome or firefox you can download adblock and it takes away all the ads in the videos

[@fuosdi64]

Conan is a likeable guy

[@solidkingcobra]

You could have at least blurred out his license plate... now we know.

[@BerkeleyBuilt]

even tho Jay has hella, nice cars, Conan is still the best with this Taurus!

[@Andrew-zv4fm]

You see his assistant car in the background.

[@nl5828]

“White Lightening”!

[@Studeb]

Wonder where he has this parked? I was just trying to find out if he has a car collection, this was the only car I found.

[@sheebox]

written on the car "Conan's Car....Now Leno's (but "leno's" is crossed out)

[@i-never-look-at-replies-lol]

Fucking lol KZbin just recommended me this 7 year old video...and he STILL has the car

[@m00n5h1n3]

@irArcangel its not youtube, its CBS that chooses to have them

[@carloisokessu7756]

He bought a 1991 honda Accord to his employee, said it's ugly and he has this 1992 ford taurus xD

[@mtaa11]

Still rolling the ford taurus. That's called "Keeping it real"

[@ceejay960]

He sure didn't take very good care of it.

[@johnplayersstandard]

Dude that's a nice car....I drive a 97 sunfire 2 door coupe same crap dark green.

[@ClapHurts]

That's a quiet car!

[@Rogersocal]

Conan is just naturally funny. Jay and Dave aren't - They need dozens of writers to come up with jokes to make them a little funny. Only Conan can do it unscripted. BTW, I love the Taurus. It's cool. I live in CA and I'm so sick of jerks driving leased ego-mobiles. Any fool can have a Mercedes for a few hundred a month - big whoop. P.S. The beard is a nice look. CoCo got style.

[@tfchui]

for an old car, it runs pretty well

[@FalaAmaris]

Oh-ho CBS! You snuck his license plate number in there. Nice!

man he is gonna hold the biggest gruge ever

[@alphaq40]

SHO is actually a high performance car.

[@dwcanker]

You could get a 4 cylinder taurus with a manual trans as well.

@bigfatjohn120 on the SHO and MT-5, yes they had a manual

[@azchevs]

You better watch out Conan, Leno's going to want this to!

Hell yeah the SHO was a sexy car when it came out! Team Coco!

[@SuperCoCoLuv]

@golfpro1944 Conan is 6' 4"--although with his slim build and tall hair, he looks even taller...and that makes everyone around him look short, even if they're not.

[@bradunderwood2502]

So hot that he drives stick

[@a012345]

@MrRedPajamas I think it's more of getting screwed out of his dream job. It's like someone letting you get a small taste and taking it away from you overnight. He waited for a long time to take over the tonight show. It was his dream since he was younger.

[@DaSkarekrow]

Q: Why is Conan called Coco? A: This nickname was given to him during his first night as host of the Tonight Show by none other than Tom Hanks. The nickname stayed with him and is used during episodes of the famous "twitter tracker

[@123cocojojo]

@bigfatjohn120 its called i Taurus SHO, they were the suped up version of the Taurus.

[@madworldbestsong]

Who cares if Leno has that many cars? That's what his passion is...

[@JAyy781]

too bad you always see him in his porsche i think he talks about this car more than drives it.

[@alusherman]

Has Kroft ever seen the color turquoise before?

[@Bloomie]

bahahahaaaa i love this man!

[@SixSick6]

@alphaq40 - I have a friend who has an SHO engine in his 1989 Mazda MX6. Jay Leno actually put a SHO engine in a Ford Festiva too. Take that Conan!

[@typemessage]

Leno should give Conan a car!
