Built To Last

I wanted to find a way to thank Ford and get my story out. I have a 94 Ford Taurus GL 3.0L engine. This vehicle is driven every day to and from work, its taken us on vacation the last 12 years and is our main mode of transportation. We have as of today 299,438 miles on it. The original engine and transmission! I was so impressed with this car that I purchased an identical 1995 Ford Taurus with 159,000 miles on it and it is still going strong!
I just want to say that no one put me up to this and I would like to personally thank Ford for making such a great and dependable product for me. My next purchase will definately be another Ford!

Thanks again,
Sincerly,
George Wall

steve Hi George, Just want to say that I share your thoughts. I have an 99 Taurus with over 310,000. No work done to it (engine,trans) and original exhaust. Being in the midwest with salt on the road. Still the car runs great. Built Ford Tough is in the cars as well. Steve Rabin

What we need is a new Police Vehicle from Ford. The old Taurus left a bad tast in lawenforcement. The new Crown Vic should be powered by the 5.0 in the Mustang or 5.4 or 6.0 v-8 with at least 450 hp, rear wheel drive or AWD as a V6 model offer the Ford Falcon twin turbo. I was a Police Officer for over 25 years. I have seen the Crown Vic run with no engine or trans oil, jump curbs, ditches. Take hits that other vehicles including trucks stop dead in it\'s track. The reverse back doors would be a good idea, plus bullit proof doors and firewall. I would take the Crown Vic over just about any other Police car on the road. The only short coming I ever had was the brakes. They needed to be upgraded to bigger slotted an drilled rotters and 4 or 6 piston front brakes and 2 piston rear sloted disc on rear. Limited slip rear, solid or independent axle, a little wider tire run flat high performance. A roll bar for a cage an plastic rear seats, special front seats made for holster. Special veh could be built for only one person up front with no passanger, and a upgraded suspenion as this could be a chase vehicle only. Remove all the extra weight thats not needed. Light bar built inside veh like the carbon motors vehicle with at least 200 watts sirene, yhis is a must at high speed. Please bring this vehicle back. I think you can make money off of it and be proude. I know the cops will love Ford again. A lot of my friends no longer like the Dodge an Chevs front wheel drive an V8 just dont hold up. Carbon motors might give you a run for your money if they ever get a car on the road. But no one I spoke to likes the Engine and doughts its performance. When gas is cheeper to buy again an yheir vehicle will not start in cold weather we will see how long they last. Best of luck ! Ford we need you really bad. Just ask thw working cops not their boses who sets behind desk all day.
