Chrysler discontinuing the Pacifica will hopefully boost the Taurus X sales. With the Flex coming, it seems possible that the Taurus X could end up being a one year model. I hope not.

I'm still trying to figure out why the Flex will be built off of the same platform as the Taurus and Taurus X in Ontario instead of in Chicago. Ford is going to all the trouble of bring a platform to Ontario JUST FOR THE FLEX when Chicago is barely making enough cars to stay open. If Chicago closes, what will that mean for the Taurus/Sable and the Taurus X? Mark.

Replying to: jigmaster (Nov 05, 2007 10:33 am) Overall driving experience with our Pacifica rental was pleasant. Yes, we liked the Taurus X more, but we also paid more. Your decision should depend on how you're going to use and drive the car, and how much you're willing to pay. If the Pacifica meets your requirements and is cheaper than the Taurus X, then it's a reasonable decision not to spend the additional money if you don't want to. And people seem to be pretty happy with their '07 Pacificas.. 9.2 average rating on Edmunds. You make it sound like the car is junk or something. Oh, and another thing.. the '07 Pacifica with the stronger engine (i.e. not the base model) does 0-60 in 7.4 seconds. That's much quicker than the Freestyle.

Replying to: francishsu (Nov 05, 2007 3:10 pm) I am just confused how you getting such a low mileage? I was getting about 24MPG in summer and even now when it is below O Celsius most of the time here I am still getting anywhere from 21.5 to 22.8mpg.
