2004 Ford Performance Vehicles GT

I agree Ricky, those local Taurus models were good cars and had a unique Aussie spec. They were basically drive and forget. I knew of several that were used to cover phenomenal distances between farms or businesses and each owner raved about the economy, long life and reliability. I remember testing them in several magazine comparisons and compared to rival big Japanese front drive models, they were in a class of their own once you got past the looks and the heat exposure and reflections generated by the glass angles combined with the harsh Aussie sun.
