I would take the AWD Taurus SHO all day long. That Ecoboost V6 is a beast, if you havent got to drive one, go do it before you knock it.

I've heard the taurus called many things but "Sleek"?

f150 is too big for what? The new ranger is 90% of the size of an F150

Want a rwd sedan? Buy a charger

Any other questions?

What if I want a Ford? Why do I have to buy a Charger?

I would take a G8 any day of the week over a Charger.

The Ranger is much smaller than an F-150, or even the F-100, get a clue.

Why even go pickup at all if size is something you don't want? IMO pickups are meant to be large, gets the job done. I'd love to have my mustang, Taurus SHO, and F150 sitting in my garage. Nice Ford family lol

So what are the painters and pool boys and similar jobs supposed to do if they don't need all that space. Seems kind of wasteful.

its not bad looking. better with some appearance mods.
with 100 more hp than the SHO, it probly out performs the SHO, and sounds better too. add some boost on top of that, and it'll be plenty fast!
i'd take the the Falcon. if its good enuff for mad max, its good enuff for me.

The G8 GT(Commodore) slapped the sh*t out of a Taurus SHO in a comparo a couple months ago, the Falcon competes pound for pound with the Commodore and would likely wipe the floor with the Taurus.

RWD>AWD

See ZR1 vs GT-R
