An average looking car that holds it's own.

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: A good car for the average joe, but if the money is present go for the mustang
Review: The only cars I have ever driven are 1995 mustang gt, 1998 ford contour, 1998 ford escort, and 1998 for taurus. The truth is that the two groupings are similar in a way. The contour is better than the escort, but overall they are both pieces of...

Better to buy new.

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2004
Review: We got this car from a used car dealership in 2001. Within the first month, we realized the electric was messed up. No matter how the door closed, the lights would not go off. We had to remove all the light bulbs.
Since this time we've had to...

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2000
Review:
My husband comes from a Ford family. The only make of vehicle that they will buy is Ford. The majority of the cars we have owned are also Fords. Ford stands for stability and durability.

The Ford Taurus is a wonderful family car with...

Criminal Intent

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: I will not buy another Ford product unless its a truck, and I don't need a truck.
Review: My wife and I bought our 98 Taurus SE in the summer of 2000. The car only had 33k miles, and all the reports on Consumer Reports and Edmunds.com seemed to say that this was a reputable/durable car. In my opinion, nothing could be further from the...

Love my Taurus

Date of Review:  Jul 28, 2000
Review: I bought my Taurus new in '98. It came with the sports package that included the 24v engine, dual exhaust, spoiler, console and chrome wheels. It has been very dependable. The V6, 24 valve is a powerful, smooth engine. The fit and finish of the body...

Relentless Taurus SE 24v

Date of Review:  May 1, 2009
The Bottom Line: A good buy for little money. Keep up with general maintence (oil changes) and it will run for a very, very long time
Review: I bought a 1998 Ford Taurus SE 24V in june of 2006. It had 129,000 miles on it, but was more or less fine for an eight year old car. It's now May of 2009 and i've put on 100,000 miles on it.

I have very few complaints about this car. It's...

The Great Old Bull

Date of Review:  Apr 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a wonderful car that will be trouble free and give you years of service for a low price. This is what a car should be.
Review: This model is another great example of how great American cars can be. It has an attracive exterior with a quality solid interior. My first initial perception of the car was the it was bland solid family transportation. I bought this car at a used...

Why Buy a Pre-Owned Taurus?

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 1999
Review: I purchased my 1998 Ford Taurus in September 1999 to replace a Dodge Intrepid that I had for 9 months. The reason for the short ownership of the Dodge was that it had an incurable overheating problem, but that is another story for another review. My...

Great long lasting car!

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car to almost anyone. This car has been so good to me, I would of hated if I bought anything else.

A real trooper for an American Car.

Date of Review:  Jan 10, 2007
Review: It's a junk car now, but it served me well. I paid $2750 for it-2 1/2 years ago and have put 50,000 miles on it since.

I bought it at just under 100,000 miles. I drove from Seattle to San Antonio with no problems and from San Antonio to...
