The Taurus has less interior room than my Contour, a wallowing platform and is in dier need of a new look!

You're wrong. Try fitting 3 full size adults abrest in the back seat of a Contour. *laughs*
Taurus is one of the safest sedans you can, or ever could buy from America. It also had a quite capable Duratec motor, and they are much more reliable than the Contour. My mom has a 2000 Taurus SE that is about to run 100K. Do I think my Contour is going to make 100K trouble-free? Yeah right.
The Taurus really is a great car, but Ford refused to update it. It is way bigger than the Contour though. The Montego/500 (Especally the Montego), now that's it's out, is superior to either one.
