Ford Taurus X Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2008 4dr Wagon 263-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed automatic AWD
For an AWD beast, 25.6 miles per US gallon on the highway (6 hr run) into ski country, on snow tires, is pretty darned good at 70 mph. see full Ford Taurus X review
Ford Taurus X Real Gas Mileage: Cons

In town we regularly got 15-16 mpg, and we rarely cracked 22 mpg on the highway. This was consistent with the 15/22 EPA ratings. see full Ford Taurus X review
