| 2005 | 4dr Wagon 153-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
We chose this wagon initially because it was the only sedan we could find that fit 2 carseats and an adult, or 3 carseats comfortably in the rear seat. Also, the two additional seats in the cargo area are nice if there are more kids along. see full Ford Taurus review |

| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 153-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
The Vulcan V6 is an underestimated engine. It has relatively low power at 155hp, but a surprising amount of torque (especially at low revs) for great pulling strength. For example, this same engine has been a workhorse in the Ranger pickup for 2 decades. see full Ford Taurus review |

The Vulcan engine is underpowered. Transmission is below average as far as smoothness. see full Ford Taurus review |
