Its a Taurus stupid, affordable and reliable!
It's so nice these Bozos at Edmunds are talking bad about this car, because the price only gets better for me. I have had two Taurus in the past and drove them over 10 years each with no problems, other than replacing a starter after nine years. These Taurus are not expensive Mercedes or BMW's, they are solid reliable quality transportation at a good price. After trading my last Taurus for a 2015 Ford Fusion SE, it's so nice to have my Taurus back! This 2018 Taurus SEL is the best car I ever drove.. It is solid, safe, with plenty of power, and it will get 28 MPG on the highway all day long with much extra power. The Taurus has plenty of room for long trips, and you won't have to be pulled out by your wife when you get home from work. The FWD Taurus will get you anywhere you have to go with great traction. Forget the "made in Mexico" Fusion, six recalls in four years, no power, and you need a can opener to get in and out just to save 3mpg and that is if you drive it easy. I'm sure the Avalon may have extra fancy features but you are going to pay for them fancy buttons too starting at $38,000 with no discounts. Yes I give the 2018-2019 Taurus five stars and it won't break your bank account paying for it.

Four and going for More
Just bought a 2018 ford Taurus sel color Ruby Red, I love this car. This is the fourth Taurus I have owned and found them all to be very reliable and drivable. I drove a 2009 Taurus for ten years and it was still going strong when I traded. It was bought by another party the same day I traded. Ford offered a really large cash back off the sale price and I got a good amount on trade in, so this car didn't cost me all that much. Would recommend anyone who is looking for a good size sedan to look at the Taurus first.

SHO shows me what it's made of!
I know the Taurus gets a bad rep and has for a long time. I've owned 2 but this my first SHO. Great car inside and out. Quiet, smooth and FAST. Don't care what the other "reviewers" say, the SHO is worth the look and test drive. You'll love it. Other drivers won't pass me until they realize I'm not a cop. LOL. Very nice car, sorry to see it go.

Ruby Too
After nearly 2 years of owning and driving this car, my initial impression hasn't change. Comfort and trouble free experience are the hallmarks of this vehicle. Would still give it 5 stars! Love this car. I traded a 2015 Mustang GT 50 Anniversary on this as I wanted a car that could actually carry more than 2 people. It's quiet, has more than enough power, gets decent gas mileage and looks great. With heated and adjustable steering wheel and pedal, seat memory, heated and cooled seats and Sync 3, it has all I need and want. (SHO would have been nice but hard to find).

Sad to see Ford give up on this one
Previous Taurus was a 2011 SEL, was still doing fine at 228k miles with no major problems, original engine and transmission, no rebuilds but I maintained it well. I purchased the 2019 as I wanted a Limited, and am as fond of it as much as the 2011. I have plans to keep for many years, like I did the last one. No regrets!!! 8/2021 Just hit 70k miles; still no regrets, I still stand behind this car...best car for a commuter.

GREAT value for the $$$!
I owned a 97 SHO way back when with the Yamaha V-8. It was like a toy compared to the current generation of the Taurus. I owned a '16 SHO which I LOVED but had to sell it after my wife died a year ago (too many emotions). I found a CPO '18 SEL at a local Ford dealer last week that I negotiated a great trade and purchase price. The sticker was in the glove box (car has 5K miles and sticker price was $34.8K). I bought it for $23.5K and signed as fast as I could just in case the dealer reconsidered the selling price. My '16 SHO was a great car and this SEL has the 3.5L V-6 with almost 300 HP and that's plenty fast for me. To me it is the best car out there for the $$$ in spite of Ford discontinuing the production of them. I also got the 7 year 100K CPO warranty. Beautiful car and top quality car too.

I love this car!!
By far one of the most comfortable sedans I've ever owned or ridden in, handles nicely on the road and despite other reviews I think it handles sharp turns perfectly. This car feels safe. For an SEL model it has get up and go. I am highly satisfied with all this car has to offer!!!!

Ford Taurus Times Three
This is the third Taurus that I’ve had, 1994, 2002 and now a 2018. I drove the 1994 for a company I used to worked for. It was great. I now own a 2002 Taurus SEL bought brand new and also a 2018 Taurus SEL which I just purchased. Each at the time were and are a great purchase. I’ve always enjoyed and liked the ride of the Taurus and the features that each one has provided me over the years. It’s a shame that Ford isn’t making them anymore. The 2018 Taurus SEL is a very good and underrated sedan.

Love my Ford Taurus
I've really am enjoying my Ford Taurus and the 2016 I had before it. It's the perfect combination of being a sharp and reliable and being affordable. I had for Lyft/Uber and I've had numerous compliments about it. I've been very pleased.
IT'S SHO TIME
First off, these none customer reviews online are so bias towards Toyota and Honda's (Boring). I just recently purchased my first Taurus SHO after owning many other vehicles and 3 non-sho Taurus's, this 2018 SHO is by far the BEST, fastest, most roomiest full sized sedan on the market for the price. If this car isn't getting attention because someone thinks its a cop then they are checking out the sleek lines and beautiful design of this automobile. The 365HP ecoboost V6 is anything but "sluggish", it handles like a BMW and is very comfortable esp for someone over 6' like myself. I highly recommend NOT reading online non-consumer reviews and giving this car a drive.

First On Race Day
This car has it all I must say, very happy to have made the purchase. The Ford Taurus line is going to be missed.
White Lightning
So far so good except for the FM radio frequency excludes 87.7 which is my favorite station. The FM band should be 87.5-108.0. Ford bad! Who makes these decisions?

Love my SHO
I had a 2010 SHO and traded for the 2018. I’ll probably have this until it rusts. Love the acceleration when passing, comfortable driving, and corners just fine. However it came with high speed summer tires that were very poor in winter in my northern part of the country. I put on Falkan HS all-weather tires and they are great. I would buy another Taurus SHO someday if they bring it back.

North Cakalaky not happy!!
I have read several of the reviews, all good. I would just like to know what day of the week was these cars made on? Mine must have been on a Monday after a binge. The 2018 Ford Taurus is good looking, lots of bells and whistles. I loved it when I bought it. However, in the four years I've had it the problems like windshield washer motor going out quickly, the lighted number panels on the front doors fly off, one after the other. Exhaust leak at the headers(won't past inspection in NC), the air conditioner going out on the front passenger side. It was leaking anti freeze from underneath somewhere. It seems like there is always something wrong with this car. I don't think I will chance getting another one. I hate making care payments and expensive repairs!! It's a nice car, but the repairs....not so much!
Nice car from a bygone era
It is a good car, but it loses in every way for the Fusion, except it feels more solid, and the body frame is something for an armored car. Because the gearbox is not so clever and cruises at 70 mph with 2100 RPMs, it could have used an eight-gearbox option from the start or overdrive at 6. If I were a ford engineer, I would have put the engine longitudinal and with rear-wheel drive. That would be a classic. Taurus ,Explorer, and Flex cloud have been built in the Mustang 6cc chassis and share the same specs.

Junk
I had a 2016 Ford 150 reg cab and really loved it. The reason I got rid of it is it, every bump made my neck jerk back and forth so having arthritis made it hard on me. So I traded for a 2018 Ford Taurus. What a mistake. In just 2 months it dropped in value by $12,000.00. Also I noticed the first time I filled it up and got in the car it showed only 3/4 full. When I asked the dealer he said oh that happens with all of the Taurus and it would slowly go to full. Another thing it says you should get 17 to 20 mph daily driving and 27 open road. I have taken this on a trip none stop of 200 miles and couldn't get over 20.5mpg that sucks. My truck I had got 25mpg.

Great car
Excellent room,engine runs smooth and great gas mileage/30 to 33 mpg on highway. I would like to buy another one!!
The car is beautiful!
I did not see that it had heated seats
Awesome look and performance
Very sporty
Underrated luxury car
This is one of the best sedans Ford has made and they never advertised it. Shame on Ford. Should have re badged it and marketed it for the quality.
