This auto has everything on it that the 2021’s have. Excellent road car, great ride, plenty of power. To bad Ford has discontinued this model. One of their best. If you find one with low mileage, buy it.

193k miles and still going

I purchased this car new and have been very impressed with both the initial quality and how it has handled the 193k miles I have put on. Quiet and solid ride. Certainly not a sporty drive but certainly more comfortable than any comparable Lexus, Honda, or Chevrolet I've ridden in. People are shocked that I have as many miles on the car and how it looks/performs. Routine maintenance with the exception of the water pump being replaced at 190k miles. Agree with the review noting the pump replacement cost $2,000. Shocking but this is the only negative I've experienced so far.

This car is very fast, and its a great family car, they are not Fibbing when they say you can drop the kids off and go to the track, this car is the best car i have reviewed by far, and ive review BMW'S AND MERCEDES and i consider some of those models below the Taurus just so much Luxury and Sportiness and Awesome gas mileage!

My taurus is nearing the 60k miles mark and it still drive like new maybe a little better since it has loosen up a little.. i am the definition of a car abuser.. my taurus is floored 10 -15 times a day basically always have my lead foot all the way down.. i drive regularly at over 90.. i turn hard on every corner but man those 255/19 tire have a nice grip... downside is tire are expensive ive spent 2100 in tires in 2 years that goes to show how much i abuse this car... ive never had a single breakdown i just put gas and change the oil... this car is amazing.. might trade it for a taurus sho. Also the interior is a spaceship and if you have ambient lighting you are in for a treat.. im 23 and this is not a grandpas taurus anymore.

Only 4 years old and huge repair bill :(

My car is 4 years old and has 102000 miles...i've never had any problems. All of a sudden, the heater stopped working and it was leaking coolant...come to find out it is the water pump...my mechanic, whom i 100% trust, tells me it is a problem only the dealership can fix...from my research online, it was going to be a very expensive repair bill...the car is not paid for, but i traded anyway...i can't see putting over $1,000 to fix the car when it is only 4 years old...what other expensive problems will i have in the future? i am very disappointed in ford...this is my 5th ford, but the problem is enough for me to not every buy a ford again.
