2000 Ford Taurus SE Reviews

The Taurus was my first car, a little over a year
after I started driving I was in an accident in which
another person pushed me off the road up an embankment airborne into a tree. As you can see
from the pictures the car was an utter mess, the
officer and paramedics said that if I had been in
any other car other than a Taurus they don't know
if I would have lived.  My accident proves that the
Ford Taurus is one hell of a safe car.

Performance --> I can't complain, it wasn't going
to set any land speed records, or impress anyone
but it got the job done.  

Build Quality --> The car was as solid as a rock, it
could take anything thrown at it and it would have
no issues.

Appearance --> What can I say, it was pretty bland
but that is okay it could have been  hideous like a
Cavalier or something, but it wasn't.

Cost of Ownership --> It got about 33 mpg Hwy
and about 25 mpg city.   Maintenance wise there
was no issues what so ever.

Fun Factor --> What fun factor?

Overall --> I was pleased with my first car as it
was a safe and reliable ride.

Gas Mileage, It has a V6 so dont expect great mileage, but i was hoping for better than 20.  other than that it performs really well except for a rattle/squeak in the rear passenger side wheel well pretty fun to drive if you can get over the fact that everybody has one. and... above all... ITS AMERICAN

I have always liked my car, but soon after I bought it I realized I had a front end problem.  I also discovered the car had been wrecked which Earnhart failed to tell me.  It does ride nice and I enjoy driving it.  What I don't like is the fact that there is no room for fixing it.  There is so much packed under one small hood.

What I do  like : you feel really safe . The taurus is well built for crash protection .The gas mileage on the high-way is very deacent but not that great in the city. The car itself has a nice look and is very confortable (front and back . The real problem is with all the electronic stuff  glad I had bought an extended warranty!!!

Great ride, fuel pump went out after our 5th 3,000+ mileage road trip
