  Great run around car - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By Siouxze - August 2 - 11:25 pm

  I think that this is a great little car for getting around in, but not necessarly for long trips. I got good gas mileage, and it always starts every time. The ignition does stay on sometimes even after I take the key out, but then it dings like I left the keys in so I just turn it off. This was my Moms car and she only drove it about 3000 a year, and in the year that Ive had it its held up to two kids, a teen and a toddler and all my running around. At first when she bought it I was mad, but now Im glad, its a great little family car, but I still need my bigger SUV or Mini Van for bigger outings.

  Dependable little first car - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By gibsonguitar - April 20 - 10:47 pm

  This is my first car, I have ever owned. I bought it all in cash. So far since ownership I have had two major problems. Both problems were, fortunately, easy to fix. Rack and Pinion system was bad, and was replaced. And lastly, while driving, a strut broke on the left front with no prior indication or warning, taking the front left shock with it. The engine could use a little more kick and transmission is a little clunky and noisy. All in all this has been a great car. Durable engine fires every time the key is turned. Heat and AC excellent.

  Bit the Dust - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By Texas Blondell - April 16 - 3:01 pm

  I never had a problem with this car breaking down. I had it checked every six months. The ABS kicked in when it was supposed to. This car was very reliable. enjoyed having this car. The disappointment was that even though being well maintained the major parts, i.e. engine and transmission just went with age. I have a good looking exterior car but it is worthless because the repairs are too costly.

  Money was worth it - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By larieaux - June 8 - 6:34 pm

  I actually bought this car for $1300 from a gas station with lots of hidden problems with it. About a week after purchase my car wouldnt start because my starter had died then that same day after getting it fixed my car had to be towed again because I had blown fuses. After that the car was loud but it ran great. When i finally gathered up enough to get the exhaust work done I found out that I had no catalytic converters. This was after I replaced the rear struts and sway bar links and battery. Then I found out I had a nasty leak in the main transmission seal which possessed me to sell it after everything we had been through together. but over all that the car got me where I needed to be.

  yeehaw - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By luvdenise - January 11 - 11:14 pm

  This car is super reliable, super-quick, and I feel super-safe. However, it doesnt have the best fuel economy and its not getting the "Most Beautiful Car Award" But, its been a trooper and seen 2 children through high school without ever breaking down. That makes this a million dollar car!

  Yamaha SHOs review - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By Jason - November 18 - 7:02 am

  The SHO comes with a love/hate relationship. My 95 SHO has been a great car until my stupidity spun a rod bearing. The car is capable of beating supercars with a few modifications. The car takes very well to boost. On a stock motor with a Vortech T-trim supercharger, I produced 460hp. This car is not a great car for someone who does not have the knowledge, willingness to learn nor money to maintain it. Many of these cars have been beaten and show problems because of it (as with the case of my 92 SHO). On the flip- side, it has honed my skills quite well. This is definitely an enthusiasts car. Somehow I got hooked many years ago and I still have my SHOs, but have a Civic now too.

  Great Value - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By 95SHO - May 7 - 9:34 pm

  The car has been very reliable with only minor troubles since I bought it cam sensor, starter and heater door control. Parts are not hard to find if you use the internet for your searches. Some dealers still have plenty of parts. The Yamaha engine is fantastic, simply the best in any vehicle Ive had to date. Keep up with the maintenance and the car will last a long time.

  Shes been a good girl - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By M.J. Snyder - January 1 - 3:31 pm

  I bought my green 95 at the dealership I worked at in college. We went back and forth from Penn State a lot and she has always been good. I have 16" wheels from a 2002, and clear headlights from an LX, big improvement she looks great, minimal problems (starter, radiator, little trim pieces). I lease a 2004 Sable but wont give up the 95, she handles great, decent power, and looks new as can be it is one of the best looking 95s youll see running around. Bought it with 45,000 miles from my uncle, now has about 85,000. I just put in good Pioneer Speakers and Sony Headunit, the stereo sounds better than my Sable. I LOVE HER!

  Head Gasket Problem - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By Head Gaskets! - December 6 - 6:51 pm

  My very first car. Power everything and I thought it was great. Until I found out I had the 3.8 engine with the head gasket problem! Was a great car until that started acting up. Had to put rear brakes and tires into it and now it looks like it needs shocks or struts because it is terrible going over pot holes and speed bumps. If you buy a Taurus make sure it is not a 3.8 engine between 1994-1999 in Taurus, Windstar, Thunderbird, and some other cars Ford has made.

  This was my baby - 1995 Ford Taurus
  By sheesha - August 16 - 2:00 am

  I bought my Ford Taurus very slightly used in 1995, from a rental car agency. I was 19, and this car was awesome. Lots of power under the hood, all the nice power features, roomy for friends, and a nice size trunk. Its now 2004, Im 28, and ready for a change. This car has been extremely reliable, until this year. Before now, I never ran into any problems, and I got my moneys worth at $10,000, 9 years ago. This year Ive put at least $1200 in brakes, new radiator, and a battery. Not bad, since its only needed minor work a few times in the past. I think it would be a reliable used car for others, and could last quite a bit longer.
