Reviewed a 1999 Ford SE on Apr 29, 2015

I've owned 3 Taurus's. A 96, 99 and 2005. I'm very familiar with these cars. With both my 96 and 99 Taurus's, I had some EGR issues. There's a known defect with the EGR valve that often triggers the check engine light. The issue is caused by some EGR tubes that easily plug up or crack. It's a minor problem that never affects the drivability of the car. I tried to fix it a few times to no avail. But since the performance of the car isn't impacted, I just left it alone. Spray the door latches with WD40. There are door sensors which often malfunction, causing the computer to think the doors are ajar. WD40 applied liberally to both latches will guarantee this problem is fixed. Tie rods seem to wear out every 20k-25k miles, but they're easy and cheap to replace. The headlights aren't very bright, even with the Silverstar Ulta's I put in. This was my biggest complaint about the car. There were many nights I'd be driving and felt like the low beams provided no illumination. I had over 230k miles on my 96 Taurus before it died, so when I decided to replace it, I thought I'd buy a 1999 model. I purchased one in 2007 with only 37k miles on it. Gas mileage in this car is adequate for a car built in the late 90's. At freeways speeds you'll easily be able to achieve 25-27mpg, but city mileage is as advertised, at about 20-21mpg. Engine power is adequate, but not exceptional. Don't believe anyone who says this car is fast. 200hp is modest, but you're not buying the car for speed anyway. I never had any major mechanical problems with my 99 Taurus. I replaced ball joints shortly after I bought it, but that's because I purchased it from an old lady who let the car sit for months without driving it. I also replaced about 2-3 tie rods over a period of 3-4 years. The engine and transmission never gave me any problems. I owned this car from 2007 until late 2012. It had about 115k miles on it when I sold it and It still ran like new. If it weren't for the fact that I moved 2000 miles, I'd have kept it, but I had no way to move it, as this was my second car.

Reviewed a 1996 Ford SHO on Feb 21, 2010

I built this car from the ground up in 2 weeks. I stripped the wagon down to the bare shell, then swapped in everything from my 96 Smashed SHO sedan including full wiring harness and dash. Then I had one of 2 SHO wagons registered in America and Canada. Fun and awesome car that could hall around 7 people. This car rode like it was on rails with SARC struts on the front and H&R springs. It also had 17 x 8 Mille Miglia M11 rims with 245/45/17 rubber. It was a complete SHO in a wagon body so it was a total sleeper. This pic was from the All Ford show that it was entered in.
