  • Great first car - 1995 Ford Taurus
    By -

    I bought one privately for my last year of college (w/ 68k mi). Previous owner left some mods on it that probably helped out performance. Only had to replace fan belt during the 2 semesters, then had to replace break pads a year later. Other than that, no major problems. Handles great, excellent mileage (used to get like 30 mpg on long trips), lots of space (passenger and trunk), lots of power for only 145 ponies. bottom line: Excellent first car, but look elsewhere if youre settled and can afford it....

  • Nothing but good - 1995 Ford Taurus

    I am the second owner of this car and it has been absolutely maintenance free. Still rides and drives great with 113,000 miles. Replaced the headgaskets once (which was a Ford recall). The 3.8 motor has lots of power and everything still works great today. I wouldnt hesitate to buy another one at all.

    Power steering keeps on leaking. a $500 to 600 repair every time. All body hardware has a clanky and cheap filling.

  • My Mail Car Taurus Wagon - 1995 Ford Taurus
    By -

    I bought my 1995 Taurus GL wagon in late 2000. The car was a fleet car and had 80K miles on it. Looking at having a vehicle that can hold all my mail and packages, I took one look at the Taurus wagon and knew it would haul anything. This car has been through it all. The car now has 137K miles on it and is coming to its end. The 3.0 engine is still fairly strong, but the transmission is slipping and the front end (axle, bearings) is having alot of problems. But I paid $4,000 for it and put tons of mail route miles on it. If this car was never used on a mail route, I would suspect it lasting well into 200K miles.

  • Nothing Fancy, Gets The Job Done - 1995 Ford Taurus
    By -

    Bought used in 1996 with 60k/mi., 8 yrs. later it has 196,500mi. & burns no oil. Other than regular maintenance this car NEVER failed me until the summer of 2003. I then had to replace the ORIGINAL battery, starter, muffler, A/C unit, CCRM module and most recently the oil pan. At this point the car could use some new struts and the odometer recently started to float, but stays near the actual mph. Since the car has been paid off for a few years Id say the cost of upkeep is still cheaper than having a car payment. Overall I would say that this is a highly reliable and easy to maintain vehicle that I would recommend to anyone.

  • Take this car off the market - 1995 Ford Taurus
    By -

    I searched for months for my first car, and when I was shown the Ford Taurus LX I thought it was perfect. Was I ever wrong, my car is in the shop atleast twice a month, each time costing me hundreds of dollars in repairs. I have had to replace almost everything in it, and it is completely unreliable. Do not buy this car!

  • Dons Review - 1995 Ford Taurus
    By -

    The car is expensive to maintain, but then again, the 95s are now 9 years old. With well over 100,000 miles, the only major problems Ive had are the starters going out. Im on my third one. Ill be looking to replace the show in a year or two, and will be sad to see it go. Ill most likely be moving towards the up and coming imports that are looking good these days. Thank goodness they still put stick shifts in their mid-size cars. I love the styling. Its 9 years old and stands out from the newer cars that have similar performance.
