Is it weird to anyone else that the Ford Taurus is now considered an upscale care?

I remember when they came out in 87.......

I agree - I was in one on a day trip. Very comfortable and slick.

A friend of mine has a 2001 Taurus and it sucks - car seats are the worst, most uncomfortable in the world. It was a piece of shit brand new.....

Now it is like Ford decided to go ahead and start making decent cars.....guess they were tired of getting their asses kicked by Toyota and Honda - although now it is just a lesser ass kicking.

Anyone drive a Buick Enclave? Looking at an 09' - 10' model.

Any issues with them?

TIA.

BAD NEWS, TIMING CHAIN PROBLEMS,............................................................... we did several replacements, many part number changes and availability of the parts was TERRIBLE in October, critical shortage of parts, that may have improved, I can check that availability at work tomorrow, but why bother check out an ACURA or LEXUS, we had a used Lexus on the lot recently, WOW what a nice plush interior:0074

Good news about an Enclave, if the timing chain fails it would be covered under the POWERTRAIN warranty for 5 years, 100,000 miles!

I would still look at the Acura & Lexus, and ask a tech or parts guy there about issues with them:0008

BTW, if you don't have a bad case of NEW PAINT FEVER, I will ask one of our techs if there are any other issues with the Enclave tomorrow and I know a good LEXUS tech I sell parts to, I can quiz him on the Lexus RX 350, if you are gonna buy a 38K vehicle new or used you should demand the best quality and value.

woody starts this shit and never returns.

I wind up spending 2 hours looking at Acuras, Cadillacs, and 1970 Pontiac LeMans :142smilie

Finally thought WTF am I doing and quit.
