  Best Value For A Wagon - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By FL Retiree - April 17 - 2:00 am

  With $4,000 rebates from Ford, you can buy this vehicle for $15,990 + Options + Dealers Prep + sales tax. This vehicle is roughly 1" shorter, 8" lower (height),and 1,000 # lighter than a Chrysler Pacifica (which is also a V-6) and save $10,500! Thats enough for a "free" 2nd vehicle.

  Great for long drives - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By Pat - March 29 - 8:41 pm

  I bought this Taurus because it was a reliable used car. It is a good car so far. The longer I own it the more I like it. It is a big comfortable car with very good gas mileage. I get 29 mpg on the highway and have never got less than 22 mpg. Last winter I had a problem with water leaking into the passenger floor. It turned out to be shoddy workmanship from the factory. This is a good car but Ford needs to keep improving on reliability. They are catching up with the Japanese and I think they can surpass them if they choose to do so.

  My Third Taurus - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By kimbah - February 15 - 3:25 pm

  Ive owned my third Taurus for just shy of 5 years and I love it. Bought it brand new. I have 80,000 miles on it and have only replaced tires at 60k miles no other repairs. Still has original brakes which I consistently have checked and theyre still good. Now thats amazing!

  Good Car - Wish they still made wagon - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By D - January 7 - 4:00 pm

  We really enjoy this car. Bought it used 18 months ago, the transmission did need rebuilt after we owned it for 1 year with only 66,000 miles on it, but we got a great initial price on the vehicle. Runs great on the road and handles much better than the MiniVan it replaced. Good gas mileage 23 on highway with family of 5 and car topper.

  My Ford Taurus Ses has been Exellent . - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By kingsol - December 3 - 2:00 am

  I regret very much about Fords decision to discontinue with the Taurus for next year, I think its a big mistake!! The Ford Futura looks very ugly! Doesnt have the classic looks of the Ford Taurus! Also by the way, driving from Colorado to Arizona this past summer, I could not believe my eyes, about the number of Ford Tauruses on the road from here to Arizona.Very popular auto indeed!

  Nice ride - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By Heavy one - November 16 - 11:14 am

  I enjoy the car. I have 2 complaints- bad gas mileage and the leather seats are uncomfortable, especially with the cup holder up. I am a large guy and my leg falls off the seat. when the cupholder is put away the car is great.

  A Winner - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By JLS - September 24 - 11:11 am

  This SES has the Duretc 24 Valve and on the highway at 2000 RPM consistently delivers 32 MPG - in town it fluctuates from 25-27 MPG. Leather seats comfotable, even for my 65: frame. At 2000 miles the check engine limit came on and the dealer replaced the entire gas tank and gage system. No problems since. At 61,000 miles the trnasaxle seal leaked and the dealer replaced it no charge. 1st Saturday of every month gets oil changed, tires rotated etc. Very good vehicle.

  Been about a year now - 2004 Ford Taurus
  By Mike J - September 19 - 2:31 pm

  I bought my Taurus about a year now and have been very happy with it. I have not taken any trips and do all in town driving averaging about 20 mpg. The ride is comfortable and inside and trunk are roomy. Since I bought this car at a used car dealer, the prices have actually gone up about $1,000 asking. Not bad for what some call a throw-away car.
