Ford Taurus Change Vehicle

"Powerful, aggressive acceleration and handling. Easy maneuvering with back-up detectors. Reverse camera works intermittently and small (located in rear view mirror)."

"I live at the 2,200' level in the coastal mountains East of San Diego, so my driving is both freeway and 2 lane mountain roads. When I'm accelerating to get onto the freeway during rush hour I find it has plenty of oomph to get me quickly up to freeway speeds. On the climbing, 2 lane mountain roads, I can push it into corners and find it handles them with ease."

"very impressed with this area"

"I grew up in the Muscle Car era, and driving the Taurus SHO is like driving a big block V-8. I LOVE the low speed torque."

"Has tremendous acceleration when needed and fairly good handling"

"Car has awful blind spots that make parking/pulling out of parking spaces & switching lanes quite hazardous. Prominent driver's side post can impede visibility when making left hand turns. Car will shift roughly at times (it's an automatic)."

"completely satisfied, very comfortable, good gas mileage.ASSEMBLED IN THE USA.."

"some lag on shifting to accelerate at high speeds. super comfortable. handles well and looks great"

"Acceleration is slightly delayed. However, it handles really well."

"Ford: handles well under most circumstances Volvo: steers well, engine is not powerful enough"

"Very quick off the line, holds the road on the Hwy even at 90 MPH."

"Lags and then jumps ahead."

"I still have not gotten use to the Immediate acceleration. You barely touch the pedal and you peel rubber."

"Excellent responsiveness"

"With 121k miles, acceleration and handling is still solid and reliable. Never had any engine or transmission issues. Response in traffic helps handle like a smaller car, despite size."

"All the engine power I need.tight steering, great ride..."

"Love the weight of the vehicle. Great acceleration and fun to drive. Powerful engine with great handling. Tight vehicle."

"We've bought our Taurus in 2011. Acceleration is surprisingly fast and handling is good. The long hood distributes too much weight to the front wheels, therefore causing problems with front brakes and struts. That's the only problem we've had with this very good car."

"Handles very well even without all wheel drive. Plenty of power, do not need turbo model."

"goes fast quietly. too easy to speed in it"

"The SHO’s Acceleration and handling is awesome. It never lets you down."

"Handles well for a large sedan, great acceleration and with proper Michelin Pilot Sport As/3 tires, is a joy to drive in the twisty, back roads of New Brunswick."

"Taurus Sho, great driving experience, acceleration and confort"

"I really like the safety features, eg Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Side Indicator, auto bright light and dimming features. The acceleration is everything I need and the care handles well."

"It has great acceleration and the handling is good. I drive a mountain road once a week and it handles well."

"I'm of average size 5' 11" 170lbs and the drivers seating room is very tight because of the size of the center console. My right leg hits the console."

"Climate control is excellent; no one can heat/cool the interior of a car like Ford. Seats comfortable but front passenger complains that seat is too low."

"I got the massage seats They are also heated. The massage seats are wonderful for long and short trips. It is a must have in any new car I buy."

"Cannot change fan upwards so it doesn't directly blow on you only sideways which is not enough for comfort."

"visibilty is restricted in windows in desire of automaker to make car look sleeker. had to remove some headrests to improve visibility. lack of adjustments on passenger side front seat"

"I am satisfied with the exception of road noise. It has gotten worse as the vehicle ages although the poor road conditions are a large contributing factor."

"I'm 6'2" and 180. There is plenty of leg room and with the telescoping/tilt wheel, I never feel cramped. CR had reported that its testers found the seats narrow and didn't like the high center consoles. I can only assume your auto testers are on the hefty size. I love the high center console. It reminds me of my Jag XK150s I had. The console is a perfect height for my right elbow to rest upon. The Taurus is well sound deadened and rides quietly on the freeway and takes corners on the windy back"

"It's a little noisy. Headrests are awkward."

"Love the full power seat for passenger front. Hate the fact it doesn't have memory like the driver side. Noise level at highway speed is quiet. Ride is quite stiff, wish it was smoother."

"Good ride and gas mileage. Reliable."

"With climate control it is difficult to turn the fan down without turning off the ac. Then the car becomes humid."

"I have for years been struggling to find why heat would not assessable to the passenger side of the cabin. Finally a defevice control valve was detected and serviced."

"Large back seat"

"We love the comfort of the front seats but the back seats are uncomfortable for any length of time."

"I like the way the driver's seat adjusts. It gives changes in three ways, forward, up at my back and up for the legs also, allowing me to see out over the dash. My husband who is tall and large needs the seat all the way back and down. We can both find a good driving position."

"The Taurus has eight way adjustment plus in seat massage and heating/cooling. It is everything one could want for a long trip."

"The seats fit well and I can adjust the accelerator position to meet my driving needs"

"The bucket seats can make your butt numb on a 2 hour trip"

"very quiet"

"Excellent seats, lots of room for 4 adults and a large baby seat, trunk can carry all our luggage, unlike mid size foreign cars, the Taurus is quiet at all speeds and has a firm but comfortable ride. Too bad that Ford will no longer produce this vehicle."

"Great ride... very good seats, holds your body like e good seat should, all the engine power I want, plus a quite, smooth ride."

"Very comfortable ride. A little noisier than I like."

"I like the fact that I have a seat heater when it is very cold."

"Not overly expensive for what we got"
