Ford’s Rock Is Back; 2011 Ford Taurus
It’s not your grandpa’s car anymore: The Taurus Omaha is looking fresh for a new generation! The 2011 Ford Taurus is without a doubt the most innovative new sedan coming out this year. The base level Ford Taurus costs just a shade over $25,000, making this masterpiece right for almost any driver. Armed with a 3.5 liter V6 and a 6-speed transmission, it gets up to 28 MPG on the highway; That’s some serious savings for a 4 door sedan that bolts around like a muscle car. Moving up to the SEL and Limited variants enhances the plushness of the interior. For $3000-$5000 more than the SE, these models allow drives to enjoy hand-stitched leather seats, enjoy the comfort of paddle select shifters and tune in to SIRIUS satellite radio. Other upgraded features include backup sensors, a rear facing bumper camera and indirect interior lighting. All the rage these days is Ford’s exclusive SYNC voice-activated communications and entertainment system.
For the young and young at heart, Ford unleashes its Taurus SHO. This model has all of the features drivers expect from a muscle car, especially under the hood. The 3.5 liter EcoBoost engine can burn rubber on the highway and still deliver a respectable 25 MPG. Stylish true dual exhaust tips shine out from the rear bumper and the upgraded AWD system delivers traction in any weather condition. This Taurus comes equipped with a sport tuned suspension and aerodynamics package that makes this car handle like a dream. All that high speed cornering shouldn’t be dangerous at night. The SHO includes HID headlamps that keep the road well illuminated even in bad weather. Information on all Ford models can be found at Ford.com.
