Are you serious!!:shock2:

I dont know about you guys but the old taurus is one of the ugliest cars I have ever seen so why would ford go back to that name. Even though they sold more than the 500 its still the same car

my mom drives a taurus.........things a Piece of Sheet, always has problems, never has ever run nicely.....idle problem for years, have taken it everywhere and no1 can figure it out

appearently it was a good seller...:confused:...

I don't know why Ford thinks the Taurus is gonna make a big difference in their like $8 billion loss in like 3 quarters. The Taurus was nothing special and will still be nothing special especially with Ford just changing the name of the 500.

If they bring back the tauraus they best bring back the SHO as well :boink:

I dont think its a bad idea to bring the Taurus name back, it really wont affect much. The 500 doesnt sell well because it sucks compared to a Altima/Maxima, Accord, Camry/Avalon, etc.

Its boring, its severely underpowered, and its not that well priced imo. Yeah with rebates you can get them cheap but if you build a good car that is price competitive you dont need rebates.

The Fusion is a good looking car that seems to be pretty well built but it also is too underpowered to compete in the midsize class.

Ford just doesnt get it. You cant make cars that are almost as good or just as good as Toyota or Honda, you have to be better to get your reputation and marketshare back.

Ford doesnt learn, the only thing going right is the Mustang which is underpowered. As you know history tends to repeat itself so alot us will be getting spanked by other car manufactures will smaller engines:kekekegay:. Its good that they keep the Taurus name but man put more HP in that to compete with the Camry.

lol. i have a 99 Mercury Sable (basically a Taurus) and its lasted 140,000 miles so far. i believe it is a great car. for being a sedan, the lil 200hp that it has gives it a nice "umph". the only problem that i have had with it was a wheel bearing go bad. i also had a 92 Taurus that was a beast. that thing survived anything. i ramped it off of a small bridge (like there was an incline and leveled out to clear some water). survived until the day it got rear ended.

Hey dont bash the Taurus those cars are great beater rentals that we always try to ruin...lol:flameON:
