Very Reliable

2003 Ford Taurus SE 4dr Wagon (3.0L 6cyl 4A)

This is a decent, reliable car. Bought it 2 yrs old, at 36k miles for $ 9000, have driven it to about 129k, with no issues. So far I have spent about 250 for a water leak, brakes and oil changes. This car has been very reliable, a workhorse and inexpensive. Have gotten on an average 25 mpg for combined city and highway.

Got it for $500 wouldn't go into gear replaced torque converter for 1200 ran great loved it had it for a month then someone t-boned me didn't get hurt at all. I would recommend it only if the torque converter is the remade one not the original other than that great car.

Great car

2003 Ford Taurus SES Deluxe 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)

So far my experience with this car has been more than I expected. With the 24V DOHC 200Hp engine, it leaves most other "family sedans" (with the obvious exception of the 240Hp Altima) wanting. It's comfortable and roomy with an attractive interior that puts other cars in it's class to shame. You definitly get more than you pay for with this car.

Not a bad car

Overall it's a good car, the price was right I only paid $16,500 for it brand new fully loaded with a sunroof. I went to Nissan, Honda and Toyota and they couldn't even offer me a deal like that. Not to mention that they didn't even offer any good rebates or military discount. So I highly recommend this car to anyone. It's a great family car. By the way I'm not some old person I'm 24 years old. I just like practical stuff out of life.
