Nobody liked a FWD Taurus in 1991, and nobody wants one now, either.

Departments across the country are going to be flocking to the new V8 Caprice.

The 91 was a slow turd. The new PI should be quicker than the current CVPI, get better mileage, and hopefully will be reliable and cheap to maintain. I didn't see what the new PI will retail for, but I know the SHO isn't cheap.

The '91 was actually not that slow, compared to the '91 CV. I drove both in service. They were unreliable POS's, and the department I worked for at the time only kept them for a year and then dumped them.

The CVPIs now are friggin tanks. I just got an '09 to replace my '05. I also had a "Taurus" for a few months....when it was called a 500.

No, thanks. They will be worse than the Impalas that everyone dislikes and Ford is going to lose out big on this one. Just my humble .02¢ .
