1991 Ford Taurus User Reviews

Great Grocery Getter And Weekend Camping Getaway Vehicle — Great Cloth interior easy to keep clean, Hauling capacity is way beyond whats expected for a vehicle this size. Although the 3.0 engine could use a few more ponies, it gets where it goes..Bad Tranny at @ 60,000 miles since no problems..

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

Decent Car... —

It's not really a BAD car, just very old and really on its last legs. The engine runs pretty well but it doesn't like winter. It tends to be quite difficult sometimes on a cold morning. Transmission is still in decent shape, shifts relatively smoothly. Brakes are good, stops very well. Handles about like you'd expect for an older car. Not extremely sporty but I've flown around a few curves in it at pretty high speeds and it grabbed pretty nicely. Trust me I work my cars out pretty well, having formerly raced a lot. Car is built pretty solid, especially for its age. It has some rust but not horrible. As for the appearance, HA, yeah, it's pretty ugly. It was wrecked pretty good in the back and the roof is missing some paint. Plus, older Tauruses were ugly anyway. Gets horrible gas mileage, I'm estimating around 12 mpg highway. Comes from being horribly out of alignment and the engine having an intermittent misfire. Maintenance is fairly expensive since it likes to burn oil and always seems to have some other problem going on. Still a pretty fun car to drive though, with a nice 3.0L V6 under the hood. Not anywhere near the best I've ever driven but still entertaining sometimes.

I Love My Car So Much!!! — Its good on gas, fast, good looking, and a dream to drive! It's very solid build quality even with the crazy torque!The 5-speed manual is smooth shifting even if it does have longish throws. The brake and gas petal are very responsive, the steering is also solid and quick. The car is extremly well balanced and with its thicker meatier tires can take corners amazingly and acts kind of like a RWD sports car! The engine is the most amazing part though and makes you want to do naughty things all day in the drivers seat while listing to the incredible exhust note and the amazing power from the 3.0 Liter 24 Valve DOHC Super High Output 220 HP V6 screaming to its 7000 rpm redline!!! Incredible!!! The car is very well equiped too, especially for a 17 year old car!! It has many features that some newer cars still don't even have yet!!

I Mean, I Ran The Thing On Almost No Oil For Like 3 Months. Ha. — Indestructible engine, entirely destructible interior. Not well taken care of by the time I got to it, so the trend continued.
