Overall good, with some drawbacks...
My Taurus is a Limited 3.5L V6, with the SHO model wheels, which were put on by the first owner, me being the second. Overall, I love the car, it looks handsome on the outside, and very upscale on the inside, it has all the tech you want including the ability to read your text messages, as well as easy entry and exit which allows you to get in and out of the car easily! The V6 is perfect for highway cruising or getting around town and returns decent fuel economy, but there are some things to be noted about the Taurus. First is the ride, which seems pretty firm, but I believe this might be due to the different rims, which, even though from Ford, could affect the ride quality. Next is the rear legroom, which is pretty bad for a full-size sedan, however, trunk space is best in class. Lastly, visibility is bad in this car, with a terrible sloped rear glass which makes the rear camera a necessity, a hood that you can't see over, making pulling into spots a little tricky, and pillars that are pretty thick. If you are on the short side, driving will be hard, but for taller people, it's pretty easy to see out of.

First Ford Taurus. Looks and feels great.
SEL model. This was quite the upgrade from my last vehicle. Many automatic conveniences in this car: push button start, automatic unlock, remote start, three separate digital displays in the dash, two USB ports plus SD card reader and two cigarette lighters for even more USB. The interior has a snug feel, but deceptively lots of leg room in front and back. The exterior look is very pleasing, too.

I love Fords!
Although I have had a couple of minor issues with the vehicle since I purchased it, the Taurus EcoBoost has proven to be a reliable vehicle with sufficient power for a 4 cylinder.

Very happy with mine
I have owned an Impala prior. Thought of another but when looking I kept going back to my Taurus I purchased. I wasn’t looking for NEW... I wanted USED. I purchased a 2015 and after researching a little more...at a REAL good deal! I LOVE this car! I have pretty much owned only Ford Trucks.. my cars for some reason have been GM products. I like having the 6 cyl motor, leather heated seat, and it is a comfortable ride as I commute daily for work. I purchased as a one owner lease and am VERY happy with this car! Nice to also know this car was manufactured “local” for me also unlike GM who took down our “local” production of vehicles 😠

Ford has gone downhill.
I've owned four Taurus' so far, and this one has had the most/worst problems out of all of them. The drive train has the weakest link in the system and that is the PTU (Power Transfer Unit) for the all wheel drive. Ford's recommended service interval for them is NEVER! They claim that it's a "fluid for life". This results in the unit failing before 100k miles and if you're driving on the highway when it happens, like I was, it will take out part of your transmission with it. If you do buy one of these cars used, make sure to have the PTU serviced immediately and if it smells like sulfur inside and outside of your car while driving it take it to a shop immediately. That smell is the gear fluid dripping onto the exhaust. Used to be a die-hard Ford fan but not anymore.

This is a spacious car, both in seating and trunk space. Great to drive on the highway and in town, too. Well maintained by the selling dealer. No accidents. Just a great car for us.
