Pros: Nice handling, spacious.
Cons: The Toyota Camry is better
The Bottom Line: Ford Taurus is good car, but you can do better in same price range
For the past week I have been driving the 2001 Ford Taurus. I never had any desire to drive the Taurus and I would prefer not to be driving it at all, but you see, I was in a rather serious car accident and my car, a 2001 Toyota Camry, is in the shop....

Pros: Styling, value
Cons: Steering, cloth seats
The Bottom Line: Nice styling, and a lot of car for the money. A shame it doesn't drive better.
The Taurus has always been a lot of car for the money. Unfortunately, many people would not be caught dead in the strangely styled, ovals within ovals 1996-99 models. The magnitude of the 㤄’s styling disaster was immediately apparent to Ford, ...

Pros: Great acceleration, stylish, easy handling car for a good price

The Bottom Line: If you want a stylish, excellent performing car that gets adequate gas mileage and is very safe, Taurus is for you.

I then drove a 2001 Ford Taurus SES and...

Pros: Handles well, comfortable, adequate storage
Cons: -
The Bottom Line: If I was in the market for a 4 door sedan, I would definitely consider the Taurus.
Recently I took the family on a 10 day trip to CA. (In fact, we just got back today after a red-eye flight. Why am I writing a review instead of sleeping? Waiting on laundry so I have something to wear to work tomorrow :( ). For the duration of the...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Styling, comfort, size, safety rating, decent price
Cons: Average steering radius, no daytime running lamps, poor gas mileage (about 16-19 mpg)
The Bottom Line: Good for a first car, an affordable and safe family vehicle, and for anyone who doesn't drive excessively and just needs a good, basic, relatively trouble-free car
This is my first car - I've been driving for about two years now (I'm about to turn 18!) and paid for this car by myself. What did it for me is that it was used (a 2001 SES), about $13,000 and had a better safety record than the VW Jetta (which was my ...

Pros: Good basic design, comfort, room.
Cons: Bland styling, a bit underpowered.
The Bottom Line: A good family car, more solid and well-designed than most GM and Chrysler offerings.
Rented for a 1600 mile drive, mostly interstates, but some curving roads, and urban driving. Car had 18K on the odometer, which translates to 36K for a non-rental (rental cars see much harder use).
Exterior Design:
The styling is about...

The exterior of the car has a modern look is is a vast...

Pros: Refined body styling and interior comfort.
Cons: Minor handling issues (the "feel" when driving).
The Bottom Line: I love my Ford Taurus!
I have recently become the owner of a 2001 Ford Taurus. I did not expect that I would ever be Taurus owner as this was a model that I was not even considering. Until recently I was a Saturn owner. The Saturn was still driving acceptably but I knew...

Cons: not the greatest gas mileage
The Bottom Line: Great deal for the money. I'd buy it again- pick-up, comfort and safety are great.
Let me say first, that our family already owns a 1996 Ford Taurus Wagon. We liked the wagon, and decided to look into another Ford this year. This year we decided again to go with a Ford. We purchased an SEL which is Ford's top of the line Taurus. We...
