Driving around the yard at work is typically 1/2 -3/4 mile at best, so it's
very hard to judge vehicles.....but the later model Tauruses - yours and
newer - have impressed me.   They have a nice 'feel' to
them.

The last time that I looked at them was back during the '94 model year. 
(Back then we still had the Mercury line up here, too so I was looking at
the Taurus and the Sable (?) ).    There was a good
sampling of both model lines with sedans and wagons in various trim levels.
  On almost *all* of them, the rear doors 'shook' when I
closed them....a real tremor that I could feel.   And didn't notice on
any other cars.
