My first Taurus was a 1997 model with the 2.5 litre 4 cylinder engine,

Big mistake in my part to buy that dog.

It had like maybe like 90 horsepower.

Used to have a Sable with the 3.8 V6. As I've already read here, I know too that engine loved to blow head gaskets. I still stand amazed when I remember the day green antifreeze was dripping out the back tail-pipe!

Man that sucker was blown!

Eeep. Correction to me. My first Taurus whas an 1987 model. (Can it really be that many years ago when I bought it? Geez.)

Over the years, I've had an '87 Taurus with the 4 banger, '88 Sable Wagon with the 3.8 V6. I had a 94 Taurus with the 3.8 V6. I think the 92-95 Tauruses were the best ever. They went downhill in 96.

I bought a 1997 Taurus and sold it to my brother. He's still driving it. And he's only on his second transmission.

But overall, they are cheap to buy.
