3rd gen Taurus was a bad example of a car period, whoever thought that ovals was the next big thing should have been shot. Not the 1st gen and second get Tauruses were were pretty radical for the time (especially the 86 model) and this vaulted them to the top. THis is probably what ford is hoping for again. Not so sure it will work this time and another big issue is this. 13 Fusion, 13 Altima, 13 Accord, 13 Malibu, all new models. Should be very interesting.
