2006 Ford Taurus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr Sedan 153-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
Seats are above average in comfort. see full Ford Taurus review
2006 4dr Sedan 153-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
Front seat room is above average. see full Ford Taurus review
2005 4dr Wagon 153-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
We chose this wagon initially because it was the only sedan we could find that fit 2 carseats and an adult, or 3 carseats comfortably in the rear seat. Also, the two additional seats in the cargo area are nice if there are more kids along. see full Ford Taurus review

Great for long drives, lots of little "smart" features. see full Ford Taurus review
