Ford’s New Taurus Is Making Waves
Forget your grandma’s old sedan: The all-new Ford Taurus is back in style! The 2011 Ford Taurus is unquestionably the most ground-breaking new sedan of the year. Russell and Smith Ford is Houston’s home for New Ford and Used Ford Trucks and has a huge selection of Taurus’ in all kinds of trim levels. The SE model starts at just over $25k, making this masterpiece easy to own for buyers of all income levels, just as Henry Ford envisioned when he founded the company over 70 years ago. Powered by a 3.5 liter V6 and a six-speed automatic transmission, it gets up to 28 MPG at highway speeds; That’s some serious MPGs for a roomy sedan that zips down the road like a muscle car.
Jumping up the price scale to the SEL and Limited variants adds quite a bit to the plushness of the interior. For $3,000-$5,000 more than the SE, these Taurus versions allow drivers to ride on authentic leather seats, enjoy the comfort of paddle select shifters and tune in to countless hours of programming on the SIRIUS-ready sound system.
Other upgraded features include backup sensors, a rear facing bumper camera and ambient cockpit illumination. All the rage these days is the SYNC system that interacts with the driver’s phone and links direction-finding, stereo controls, and phone features with the driver’s voice.
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 when it comes to horsepower. The SHO’s 3.5 liter EcoBoost engine can keep up with any car on the road and yet delivers a respectable 25 miles per gallon. Stylish true dual exhaust tips shine out from the rear bumper and the enhanced AWD system delivers traction in any weather condition. This Taurus comes equipped with a sport tuned suspension and aerodynamics package that enables the SHO to handle like a dream. All that sharp cornering shouldn’t be scary at night. The SHO comes standard with High-Intensity Discharge headlamps that well illuminated even in rough weather|turn the blackest night into virtual daylight].
From the base level SE all the way up to the fiercesome SHO, the 2011 Ford Taurus is a great value and great fun to own.
