Ford Taurus Forum

LOL, well feel free to upload a photo of yourself, or your vehicles.

I'm pleased to announce the introduction of personal photo galleries. Now you can upload your JPG photos on this site for everyone to see.

As an example, I uploaded a photo of my current vehicle, a 2001 F-150 SuperCrew.

Feel free to try out the new photo galleries and let me know what you think.

Since the 2005 Montego is the twin of the Ford Five Hundred, I've added loads on information on the car.

Full Specifications:

Enjoy.

That's right all, I got my hands on a dealer-only item. It's the dealer preview guide that compares the Five Hundred to competing products, along with lots of other useful information.

Thanks for the feedback Rick. I realize the formal name of the car is the Five Hundred (not 500) but the odd time I do write it the short way. I'll try to stop that ;-) Also, for what it's worth, you can get to this site using My Ford Five Hundred .com (I just use the shorter URL because it's easier...

LOL, my friend is saying the same thing. He has a 92 Taurus and is quite interested in the Five Hundred. ...I've been keeping it in my car, in the passenger seat, and stop and read it during my comutes to work and home in my Taurus G (as in Gee I wish the new Ford Five Hundered would come out soon!!...

LOL, I shop for practically everything on eBay. I bought a power steering pump for my Taurus, a shirt I liked, a cell phone, and lots of other stuff.

I think I'm addicted to eBay Am I alone here?

OK everyone, so far I've posted information that I think will be of interest to Ford Five Hundred owners and enthusiasts. Now it's your turn to tell me what you want to see here. So far I've posted: - News Articles - Model Specifications - Photo Galleries - Links - Forums What else would you like to...

I'm curious... this is anonymous of course, but what is your age group?

If you've ordered one, please post all the details here. I'd be interested to see what trim levels, transmissions, colors, etc. people are interested in. Unfortunately I won't be buying one right away (I bought two vehicles in the last year and have enough now) but we'll see how bad I want one after...

I'm sure someone will come out with a chip or tuner for this. But I'm sure companies will also need some time to get that tune all figured out. The big thing lately is tuners such as Superchips MicroTuners. You just plug it into the OBD diagnostics port and tune it from there. You don't need tools a...

Please post your findings back here, I'm very interested to hear everyone's opinions and thoughts on the Five Hundred.

Hmmm... I was under that impression too. Check out this quote from a Ford press release . Looks like you only get fuel savings over a traditional 4 speed automatic transmission, and not necessarily a 6 speed one. The obvious benefit is smoothness because there's no shifting. But CVTs are more effici...

I'm looking forward to seeing the car in person at my dealer.

You know, there's probably quite a few people that would appreciate that. I drive both an F-150 and a Taurus and I have to stop for a second to remember which side the fuel door is on when I'm in the Taurus. The truck is on the left and the car is on the right.... I'm getting used to it now :) :lol:...

Hmmm, that is kind of weird. I would have thought the CVT would be standard on the SEL or Limited.... maybe it's because the CVT is new and they don't want too many of them out in case they break

I've posted a PDF document that is the 2005 Ford Five Hundred Ordering Guide. It includes full info on the 2005 MY car. Check it out under the "News" or "Specifications" sections above.

I haven't heard yet. I've been keeping in touch with Ford Media but they haven't said.

I haven't seen one yet. If I come across one, I'll post it.
