DO NOT attempt to Engine OFF Coast with an '03 Taurus. You'll cook the tranny. It won't take it.
The car was supposedly owned by some little old lady, so I doubt they installed a trans cooler... I wasn't seriously considering another Taurus(I had a 95, Vulcan and AX4S), mostly due to not wanting another near full size, gas sucking, 3 liter engined car...(I sold mine to buy a smaller car) Honestly, I was only even briefly considering it due to price potential; it's part of an estate sale...
