1988 Ford Taurus GL Wagon review from North America
"I love this car, it has been a great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The forward gear went out on the transmission.
Nothing else.
General comments?
It is a car just like any other. Depending on luck sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you don't.
Everyone I talk to say that they like their Taurus. This car is cool, it got me and my girlfriend home in reverse after the prom, now that is a car. This is built Ford tough.
