1991 Ford Taurus GL 4dr Sedan
Bought it at 99,000 miles. Since then, I've put 81,000 miles on it over 6 years. While some of my friends have spent over $50,000 to get new vehicles two or three times over the past six years and dealt with major mechanical problems on these new vehicles, I've only had to replace the water pump and pay for regular maintenance on the Taurus that cost only a fraction of their vehicles.

1991 Ford Taurus SHO 4dr Sedan
This was a great performing car. Fast, handled great and very comfortable. However, after 6 months, the transmission went out. I took it to a Ford dealer in to have it fixed. $2500. They said it would be guaranteed and covered at any Ford dealer in the US. Well, I moved to GA and the transmission went out again. Dealer said it was my fault for not checking the trans fluid. It was a … manual and there was no way of checking it. I had it repaired again. $2500 again. 10 miles after the warranty was up, it went out again and they would not fix it unless I paid another $2500. I gave the car away at that point.

1991 Ford Taurus GL 4dr Sedan
this is a terrible used car. these
cars no matter what engine you have in
them are bound to die on you when it's
least convenient. iv'e had to replace
the transmission on mine three times
and in the end, it caught on fire. i
recommend staying away from these
cars. the 3.8L engine is built sound,
at least for me, but the transmissions
aren't worth the cheap paint … that
covers the body.
