I've owned this car for six years, put roughly 60,000 miles on it, and it still drives as well as it did the day I bought it. It has been a relatively low maintenance vehicle, and what maintenance it has needed is mostly related to my personal usage. It's a fairly roomy car with an equally roomy trunk, more so than the '95 Taurus I owned as a teen. The paint has held up well, and so has the interior features of the car (aside from the driver's side door panel, but that's its own story). One thing I do appreciate about it is that none of the parts are appallingly expensive to replace unless you just want to go all out on quality. Plus, this car features a FlexFuel engine, which means I can put regular gasoline in it and it runs like Premium. My only real problem with this car is the stereo system. Apparently 2006 was the year that Ford decided to tinker with the AC system by creating an overall unit for A/C and radio controls. What this meant for me was no aftermarket stereo installation, thus no introducing a USB or auxiliary connection for my phone. I had to purchase a Bluetooth FM adapter to get away from CDs, and install high quality aftermarket speakers to get any sort of volume. Overall, I liked this car, but I will be glad to upgrade.

This car was a four door, four passenger car that was a very steady and good car. The maintenance was low and I didn't have much of a problem with it. The MPG was a little on the low side for the city. But over all I loved this car. If I had to choose it again, I probably would.
