Hi All! Just got back from the car dealership since my 1985 Mercury Marquis lost the rear end.
We are now the owners of a 2000 Ford Taurus, green, 4 door sedan. We got a great deal on it! I know it's not the pick up I was wanting to get but this will do just fine!
Pat loved it because it had a Vermont green color. Well won't be going to the LFS to buy much now for awhile but that's ok as we have a dependable car now.
I bought 6 more years of warranty as well. Johnny

Awesome Johnny. Those are great cars! Should last a long time. Just when my car was just about paid up, Jon's old van finally bit it. Well..at least he has a nice new truck. I'm not jealous at all

Congrats!
Brooke

Nice choice, Johnny! Taurus are great family cars and very reliable. Since Pat likes it, that's the main thing!!

My Mom has a 2000 taurus and its green too. It drives good but the turning radius stinks. Other than that its a nice car with good power, nice handling. I wouldnt mind having one.

Congrats!!
