A friend of mine has a Sable LS and claimed it was pretty fast, and could beat my 'boat' (grr! fightin' words!) so we lined em' up on a back road. I got him off the line..through 2nd..through 3rd..by 70 I had backed off, because I thought he'd let off the gas..but..I saw him iiinching up. So, I floored it once more, then he started flashing his lights. Poor sap. =) First kill, and I'm not very proud of it. Weak *** 3.0 =(

Another GM beats Ford!

i spose hedint have much to say about that....

My mom bought a Sable top of the line from her friend for less than blue book price cince her husband works for ford but she hates it and wants to take my car back. I also hate the whay the car handels of you gun it under WOT it will not shift unless you let off the gas it will just keep redlining it sucks

My current winter car is a 2000 Taurus (sable in disguise!!!) and its true, it handles nasty under WOT. I havn't experienced teh not-shifting problem you described, but it shifts at awkward points, right when you start to get into the power. The 3.0 is weak, 155/165 at the fly-wheel for the base Vulcan engine, only 200/200 for the Duratech DOHC (which is an extra $2500 ) Im looking to get rid of my bull, and get into a bonny sometime this summer :thumbsup: I just can't stand going that slow in the off-season :(

LOL!!! Ford Taurus = Ford SoreAss

It'* to bad that that'* true, you'd expect one of the best selling family cars in america to be at least comfortable on 5 hour drives My mustang is more comfortable for long drives than the taurus, I kid you not. :(
