1998 Ford Taurus review from North America
"I changed the oil once or twice a year and put 229000 miles on it"
General comments?
Best car I ever had. I changed the oil once or twice a year and put 229000 miles on it. It had 96000 when I bought it (total miles 325882). It was rear ended for the second time on 7-31-06 and was totaled, although I still drove it home. I took the family on a 700 mile round trip vacation the weekend before the accident. I would have had no problem taking this car to California from NC and back.
