In the 8 months I've had this car, I've
put about $3,000+ into it. Struts,
bearings, ball joints, tie rods, brakes,
brake calipers, muffler, heat core has
been flushed a good 6 times and finally
works (and there is more, I can't
remember it all) and it only has 66k,
most of these repairs coming before 60k.
Repairs it still needs. Transmission line
leak going into the radiator, and the
catalytic converters are rotted (part is
$400-$600, not counting labor). I will
more than likely NEVER buy a Ford after
owning this FINE piece of American ingenuity. Cheap interior.. Dashboard is
splitting apart. Looks AWESOME.Dec 12, 2010

Its a nice car, way more than enough power. Handles well in
the corners and it is very easy to get it over 80 mph. The
RPM's should be lower at highway speed, that is why it only
gets 21.5 as a avg mpg. Would buy again, it has been a
dependable car. Nov 16, 2009

amazing power for the money has 24v dohc cam duratec engine, makes 225hp, 0-100kph in 7.3 seconds, handles very well for size minimal body roll, excellent Goodyear triple treads for traction, styling could be best described as "sleeper" subtle styling points that the average person wouldn't notice, averages 26.3-7 mpg commuting from janesville and back everyday, great fun for the money, put the hammer down at any speed and expect to be put back in your seatOct 26, 2009

great gas mileage but ugly car, only good if you need a car and dont mind being robbed of power and luxury. The only good thing I got out of it was having a car that was it nothing was worth having about itJul 23, 2009

I liked this car, was comfortable, had power everything. Engine was ok, ran strong enough, tranny on these cars SUCKS. I had a roommate who had a Taurus about the same year and both our Trannys went out the same week. Checking with the junk yard they didn't have a single good tranny, all the ones they had were there BECAUSE of the tranny. Could even sell it to a junk yard, they said they all had 15 of these cars that ran but be tranny was out. Ford auto trannys for ya. May 25, 2009

Well, my car has no pickup at all, acceleration is a bitch. Oh well, I bought this car to get from point a to point b, which it does. Apr 03, 2008

Should I list my Mercury Sable?
I have a 1998 Mercury Sable that ran when I parked it. It needs work but I want to sell. It has the 24 valve engine Duratech V6. Im not sure if I should list with cargurus?? I think more car guys would be interested for the motor than the care itself but, I'm not sure. I parked it when I bought a different car. I do miss the get up and go that car had!

Vin ID versus actual engine
My vin shows an S intead of a U for the engine type and the car was bought new by the previous owner (It's a one owner car) . My question is how is it possible for the engine to be a 24 valve Duratec Twin DOHC when the vin says it's a OHV engine ?
