My Old Ford Taurus
I have been yearning to get the new 2006 Ford Fusion, which is far more stylish and “modern” than my Ford Taurus which I had owned for almost ten years now. It’s actually a 1992 model.
Anyway, I’ve read about the new Ford Fusion, which is said to be the model to redeem Taurus’ fame. Well, it’s got lots of potentials. Even the base model’s 2.3L double-overhead-cam four cylinder engine offers a respectable—make that impressive!—160 horsepower. The available 3.0L Duratec double-overhead-cam V-6 offers a whopping 221 horsepower and 205 ft-lbs torque! Wow.
When it comes to styling, the Fusion is really all set to win back the hearts of Ford sedan lovers or shall I say, Taurus-lovers. It features highly urban-looking projector-beam Ford headlights, clear-corner Ford taillights, chrome three-bar grille and 17-inch Ford wheels. It exudes a sporty character (it’s actually almost like a Mustang to me).
Going back to my old driving buddy, the Taurus. I don’t really hate owning this car. It didn’t have very unfortunate experiences with this model, but how I wish I can drive that seductive new Fusion too. Well, I think I still have to wait for another year to be able to save enough for a new car.
For now, I’d just upgrade my old Taurus. There’s this store, Ford Parts Online, which offers excellent choices of Ford parts from Ford Bronco wheels to Ford Explorer engine parts, Ford Focus mirrors, Ford Ranger lights and Ford Mustang A/C condensers. Investing on premium quality Ford replacement auto parts is not a waste of money. By enhancing my old car’s exterior and interior features and performance, I can also increase its resale value. Besides, it can make my car more fun to drive. I love my old Taurus after all.
Oh, by the way. I forgot to mention, my 1992 Ford Taurus was once a best-selling car!
