Anonymous, IN (2006 Ford Taurus)"I have had problems with low speed acceleration, and "missing" a idle and low speeds. Problem seems to be with "master computer" have replaced it twice, one under warranty.I am watching this I would be completely satisfied except for the computer. I will say that three years ago I "dropped" using local Ford dealer as maintance source. Too expensive"

"I like the acceleration and handling very much. For an older care it has a lot of "zip," no drag when passing or going up hills. It handles well and seems to "fit me." I'm comfortable in the car."
