Has Ford broken the stigma of high mileage American vehicle's being not good after 200K miles? Well after driving this car today I believe they have! Now Chevy's with 200K Miles is a whole different story, but I'm pretty proud of Ford now!
If you'd like to purchase this vehicle make sure to contact me or leave me a message down below. I'd love to sell one of my subscribers a vehicle!

Vehicles filmed at Dealerships are For Sale. Make sure to visit the dealerships website for detail info about each vehicle. If your watching a video thats older than 90 days you can expect that vehicle to most likely already being sold, unless its a new car.
FYI - Charleston Car Videos on KZbin Started in 2011. Back in 2008 is when I started filming cars as a car salesman to give people a better way to see a new or used vehicle. Over the years I ended up selling over 450 vehicles from doing videos. Today 1000's of vehicles have sold from people watching my car reviews in America.

I have a 2006.234,655 miles as of today. Done the recommended service. Have had no major problems. Its important in my opinion to be the only driver of your car. Other people just stomp it and go. Be easy on your car and it will treat you right. Also I purchased this car with 44,500 miles. Its been very dependable.

I do have a 2012 Ford Taurus SHO w/ 150+ KM on it, if I do have my way I wouldn't sell it, I'll just keep it and buy another car. The Taurus is one of Ford's best, and it's a pity that they're no more into sedans. Very 'few' cars can actually compete with the Taurus for the price point, I don't know how the Chrysler 300 would do, but that's the only car I am comparing with the Taurus.

Warranty price is really close to the Extended Warranty price of my New Car that I bought but its really short term compared to my new Car Warranty... should be like 100 dollars but I suppose that's to band-aid a car if its brought back in.... or sit on it for a long term until the warranty is up to not honor the warranty.

I know this video is a bit dated but I REALLY appreciate it because of my… fun situation. We just repaired my jeep for a grand and after a week we’re letting it sell for parts because it’s still overheating like a ***** (head gasket, radiator, water pump, etc. If the car has it, it’s a coin flip on if it’s still functional). Anywho, I’m in the process of acquiring a vehicle pretty close to this one’s details, 2011 Taurus with 220K on it. My ears perk up for anything over 200k but based on this video I feel more confident in the car. It has a great interior and 18 city/ 28 highway, and it’s all down to inspecting under the hood and coughing up the money at this point. I’ll try and keep this updated because, what the hell why not?!?!? Thanks for the video man!

I get its not in the best condition but I'm driving a beat up 2002 Tahoe at the moment with 180k miles (and I love her to death). If I need reliable transportation my 2018 Toyota Camry is the everyday driver lol. I'm in Australia at the moment but I'm back in Charlotte in about two weeks. We'll keep in touch and I'll get my finances sorted (I'll be paying cash to you) but I would love to own this car! You've still got it ill be driving down to Charleston and get the deal done!

I have a 2011. Mine failed at 114K and I spent 2,300 dollars replacing the water pump and all the timing chain components. They also had to do 2 oil changes to flush the engine because the coolant had mixed. If the car overheats, just pull over immediately and shut the engine down. Only way to save the engine.

Did you flush your coolant and at what mileage did you do that maintenance? The cool thing is where I purchased it from gave me a lifetime engine warranty as long as scheduled maintenance is done at their dealership. My plan is to still get tires, breaks, inspections and stuff like that somewhere else. They can do the oil changes, coolant and transmission flushes, spark plug replacements etc.

@@Txcowboy80 $400 labor $105 for the part so $505. But I heard this can cost a little over $1,000 depending on the mechanic. I took it to a diff mechanic to inspected my car at 1st which estimated me that’s it’s going to cost me from $1,000-$1,500. He didn’t do that type of job as he didn’t have anything to pull out the engine with & I ended up taking it to a diff mechanic block up the street who charges way less as the mechanic who inspected my car charged me $100 just to see it.

Yes I do believe Ford started building them better these past years. The older ones did seem to have issues and were cheaply made. From what I was told 2019 is the last year for the Taurus sedan. They are getting ready to stop making all the 4dr cars and just have SUV's and Trucks and Mustangs.

honestly the price is waaay too much for a 2010 and 200k miles, it should be something around 3000. because all of the dents in it and it was in an accident. for me I just bought a 2013 taurus SEL with a 160k miles on it for just 4000, and it it very very clean with no dents on it except a little hit on the front bumper (I know the video is like 1 year old as I,m writing this comment but it's not that big of a difference)

The reason why the car is cheap is maintenance on it will kill you example let's say your water pump goes out it'll cost you $1,500 to replace it because the water pump is behind the timing chain and is ran by the timing chain so you have to take the timing chain off the timing all of that and it'll take you about three days to do it

That's the only expensive repair on these taurus. These are actually very reliable cars. And the water pump are less than 100 dollars, if u know a cheap mechanic you can get the job done for 600. I have this same car with more than 140,000 and haven't changed anything yet (not even a sensor) and zero lights on the dash, it's amazing. I know about the water pump so I bought one off ebay for 70 bucks just in case. Oh yea, I changed the blend door actuator (35$) because of the clicking noise in the dash.

Baron, changing the water pump is not doing maintenance. That's repairing it.Keeping your anti freeze flushed or changing to new, fresh coolant in a periodic basis is doing maintenance.I have a 2004 Taurus SES with 343,000 miles that is still running strong, thanks to maintenance. I have a 2012 Taurus Limited with 181,251 miles. Best car I've ever owned. No issues. None. And I only put in basic car care, keeping the oils, fluids, filters, and tires fresh or new. And I'm not very timely when it gets done either, but I do it. I bought the 2012 knowing about the water pump, but a lot of people just don't put enuff time into their 25 to 45 thousand dollar vehicle, and blame the manufacturer. Not saying that's you, just saying a little love for that expensive machine goes a long way.

Well, if you do notice the coolant leaking, or maybe get to 1 overheat event and park it, when the crack it open to change the pump, the surrounding chain tensioners are worn nearly to the metal or cracking, it is a great overhaul to have done, and lots of important gaskets are swapped out at that point, too. If you push it through 3 overheats, it warps the head and it is oil and antifreeze mixing destroyed bearing city.

Consumer protection is an amazing thing, these guys are very shady and like I was saying living in a protected state the consumer can sue over false advertisement and other things. It is always good to be protected and even for 1,200 cars because it’s not like the main group buying them has a ton of disposable income to just buy another if it breaks.
