2010 Ford Taurus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Three adult room in the back seat - comfortably! see full Ford Taurus review |
2010 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The front and rear seats are very comfortable. The back can be cramped with three passengers. The SL has heated front and rear seats which works great and are needed as the car heater is very slow to initially get warm. The heated steering wheel is also a nice touch. The seat fabric is soft but the light color might not wear well. see full Ford Taurus review |

Independently adjustable lumbar and cushion supports, individual front seat heaters, coolers and massagers for both the seat cushion and the back. Need I say more? see full Ford Taurus review |

2006 Lincoln Navigator Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 5.4L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
The rear console is a bad idea. There's no way for the kids to get to the back seat while driving. see full Lincoln Navigator review |
2005 | 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 5.4L V8 6-speed automatic RWD |
The driver's seat is exceedingly comfortable. Its heating and cooling features work quickly and effectively. The adjustable lumbar support is in the right place to be effective without being intrusive, and the large cushion effectively supports the my legs. As an athlete who is almost always sore or injured, I very much appreciate that the seat is high enough off the floor that my lower legs are reasonably vertical. see full Lincoln Navigator review |
