Faults:

Replaced the transmission at 150,000 miles and put in many other new parts since day one of ownership in 2004.

This is my second Taurus. This version of the Taurus (2000 to 2007) is so widely popular. It seems like everywhere you go, you see one of these. The station wagons are very rare.

My Taurus SES Sedan Duratec is in the popular silver color with the gray interior color combination. It's always garage kept and never sees winter weather, but it's always driven locally during Spring, Summer and Fall. Love the floor shifter cos it makes driving so much fun. Mine has the power sunroof and spoiler.

Yes, I've replaced many parts on it. Transmission was replaced at 150,000 miles. The car still runs the same way it did when I bought it new. The interior is quite big. The trunk is huge!!

I absolutely love this car. Easy to get parts for it. If you're looking for a nice daily driver, then this is definitely a great choice.

Faults:

Tires changed at 30k and at 90k.

Transmission went out at 100k.

Check engine light at 100k.

Alternator out at 110k.

I traded my Town Car for better mileage, and got about the same on the highway as I did with my Lincoln. I made it up in town though.

The car is laid out nicely, if not a little bland. I have the flex fuel V6, but I have never used E-85.

I am disabled due to a spinal injury, and have a hard time getting in and out of the car, but once in, it has a very good ride.

Faults:

My radiator hose blew and stranded me, which wasn't that bad... but in the same day, about 100 miles later, the transmission blew as well!

General Comments:

It's very comfortable and pretty to look at, but I need a car that RUNS!

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

I'm a 19 year old student. I have the car now for about a year, and it's been nothing but good to me.

Very surprised by the gas mileage for such a big engine. It doesn't drink all that much.

I've spent $30 on the car since I have it, and it was for an oil change.

I would recommend this car to anyone.

Faults:

The main issue that I had with the car was that squirrels got into the engine compartment and chewed the front 3 ignition wires. I had to have the car towed for the first time, and it cost 700 dollars in repairs. It would be nice if there was some kind of cover to protect these ignition wires. The 3 wires on the rear of the engine are covered by the intake manifold so they are protected. Otherwise, I have had no major problems with this car.

General Comments:

I had the transmission flushed at 60000, and plan to get it done again at 120000. I hope to get 200000 miles out of this car. I drive an average of 20000 miles per year in this car.

The Duratec engine gives it a nice pickup when passing other cars. This car has the leather interior, power sun roof, and remote key entry / lock.

The front seats could be more comfortable, I sometimes find myself using the cruise control in order to stretch out my legs.

I paid 12000 dollars for this car, so I think that I have gotten my money's worth so far.
