What Owners Say
"Good accelleration and handling."
Ted G., OH (2001 Ford Taurus)"It drives nicely in all respects. I just had to put new tires on because the previous tires were starting to separate tread from body and it caused a shimmy. Also, it became susceptible to blowouts and other tire issues. I use it so little that the old tires still had about 60% tread left."
James R., NM (2001 Ford Taurus)"Car does not do mountains well (interstate or state roads) - no acceleration. Great on highways with little to no hills"
Anonymous, GA (2001 Ford Taurus)"Acceleration is very good for the age of this car."
JOSE O., CT (2001 Ford Taurus)"It doesn't accelerate very quickly without really revving the engine, and it doesn't slow down very quickly without really slamming on the brakes."
Anonymous, MN (2001 Ford Taurus)"I have loved this car more than any in my whole life. I hate that Ford doesn't make this motor anymore. It has more power to accelerate than any I've ever owned. Great mileage on highway... 27.., for a motor this size. I hated that the newer Taurus became more of a luxury car that I couldn't afford. The size of my 2001 is perfect... there is no comparison to the newer models for style, cost and efficiency."
