Sure sounds like a winner so far. http://www.freep.com/article/20091006/BUSINESS0102/91006049/1319/Taurus-sees-hig- h-demand-in-Calif |

Those of you who predicted huge cash rebates will be dismayed to learn that Ford has dropped all rebates on the 2010 Taurus. The only incentive available now is low financing - 0% for 36 months. It's too early to tell how long it will last, but it's certainly off to a great start all things considered.

You may be surprised to find out that, as much as I disagree with you on the depreciated value of the Taurus in a year or two, I am actually rooting for your view to prevail...it would be a welcome change to actually see an American car maintain its value after driving it off the lot... I am betting my money (25 cents, to be exact) on my view, but I am hoping your view wins... |

Except for the sheet metal, what are the changes in the 2010 base model (i.e. without any options, I think it's called SE) as compared to the 2009 base taurus? or the 2008 SE? Most of the attention understandably has gone to the SHO and some of the electronic gadgets on the upper level tauruses. But, assuming that most SE buyers aren't interested in or can't afford the gizmoes and gadgets, how has the powertrain, engine, suspension, braking, steering, seating, power and fuel economy changed from SE2009 to SE2010.

That said, fuel economy numbers are officially unchanged, as is engine output, but given the weight gain, I'd expect small penalties to both at best. As far as handling/ride/seating, that's probably so subjective you should simply test drive! |
