Okay, fair 'nuff. I officially retract my under-informed prejudice against the Taurus, at least until I get a chance to evaluate it more thoroughly.
Give it a shot and let us know what you think! Personally, I really like what Ford/Lincoln has done lately..
I'd look down at the map for 5 seconds and look up to find myself halfway across the lane.
I hope it's not a full 5 seconds (unless you're stopped at a light)

. That's a lot of time!! At highway speeds (~70 mph), you've gone 500 ft in 5 seconds. Even at 35 mph, you've gone far enough to do a lot of damage off the shoulder.
