Ford is bringing back the Taurus name, and it will be based on a redesign of the 500.. it's a name recognition thing. The fusion will still be around as a smaller, sportier car.

I basically offered a used 2005 Ford . that's a very incredible automobile. basically like interior the final reaction to the engine and rear brakes I agree. i actually try drove a 2005 and then the 2008 Ford Taurus (until now the ) and there replace into definately a difference interior the engine. in spite of that mentioned, the 's engine is surprisingly respectable. the main suitable element relating to the must be the interior. the size in this element is staggering!!! Command seating is likely considered one of the biggest positives given which you certainly sit down larger up on the line, so as a substitute of crouching down into the automobile, you purely style of slide into the seat. that's a similar interior the rear seats. The rear seats characteristic the main suitable leg and shoulder room in its classification and have faith me, that's greater advantageous than roomy. The trunk is critical for hauling just about besides the fact that in provided that's huge and deep. yet another considerable useful to the is the sprint. that's not genuine flashy besides the undeniable fact that it is not particularly conservative. i think of that that's a seem that fairly wont circulate out of trend via fact the knobs are not genuine vast and around, they're greater present day. the has additionally gained the main suitable risk-free practices scores in its classification and is consistently advised via client comments. besides the fact which you do, do no longer purchase a Taurus 2007 and earlier, they're low-value and unreliable. in case you will purchase a Taurus, be sure that that's 2008 seeing it fairly is the previous Ford version. solid good fortune!!

Who knows? Lincoln renamed 2 of their cars, after spending close to $10 million launching the Zeyphr, and the MKX was intended to be the new Aviator, but they have two great names, and they have to change them to a jumble of letters (like Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, BMW and other upscale vehicles), so I don't see why Ford wouldn't change the FiveHundred to the Taurus. Just shows you the wasteful spending that put the company in trouble in the first place.

The Taurus has much better name recognition, and the Five Hundred hasn't been selling well, so they are changing it back.

Who cares, it won't hold it's value or get good mileage, so why not just name it something more accurate, like CRAP?
