Ford keeps improving

Only one week with this, but we have driven a Ford Freestyle 2005 for 3 1/2 years. The 1993 Explorer needed to be replaced and the prices were getting really good in late Nov 2008. My wife and I have been thrilled with the AWD Freestyle (restyled the Ford Taurus X now) and expected this Taurus sedan to do well. It has exceeded in comfort, maneuverability and radio the excellent older Freestyle. My wife now feels "disloyal" to her Freestyle by liking this new sedan even more. Unable to comment on mileage yet or reliability. Ford got it right with the 500/Freestyle and they keep on improving the design. We can see well and we are supremely comfortable.
My best automotive purchase

I bought my 2008 used in 2009 with 22,000 miles on the odometer, Now it has 106,000 miles and no upkeep except for the scheduled maintenance. This is the best car I have owned, ( I'm 75) and it is comfortable, safe, great visibility, and a large cargo area in trunk. Great mileage..26 mpg... fast acceleration. We want to save miles on the Tauras so we bought a 2018 Focus with the DTC transmission and it, too has been a great performer.. I am sorry that more people didn't buy the Tauras..It was a great car in all respects!

This is the best vehicle I have ever owned! Gas mileage is awsome for such a large car. The only thing I could say is improve the exterior design, it is so boring!

i reluctently traded in my 2005 ford freestyle awd with cvt transmission after 37,000 miles. i hate to admit it but the 2009 taurus with fwd rides more comfortabaly than i expected and is superquiet on highway travel. local mpg at around 16 and 26-28 on the highway. The 3.5 engine is an improvement over the 3.0 of the Freestyle. Interior is tastefully done and the heated leather seats are fabulous. I would recommend this vehicle without any hesitation at all.
extremely reliable

only failures in 170k miles: heated seats, turn signal bulbs, blend actuator for hvac. Trans and engine have no leaks or drips. AC is still cold, never needing refrigerant. All accessories, windows, power seats, entry keypad, etc. work as new. Oddly, rear brakes wear out in 50K miles, but front brakes hardly wear. [front brakes replaced at 160K, with 4mm remaining]. The appearance is plain, but safety rating is 5star. Seating is great for tall adults; a 6'6" passenger is comfortable behind a 6'6" driver. review date: jun2018
