Same here, I still can't figure this out.

Re: New Car ..,,

Your Dad has an Audi. If I had an Audi A6 I know that I would not be looking at a Ford. More than likely Audi, Volvo, BMW, Mercedes and if he wants a speedy little car those Volkswagens can hold their own. I myself have a spot in my heart for Fords but it would be the trucks or Mustang.

Re: New Car ..,,

Infiniti, an audi is a very annoying car to have, uses alot of gas (at least the one i have) and is very expensive to maintain A Ford taurus sho has 365 hp and 350 ft lb of torque !! I can easily beat a v6 audi

A lincoln is nice, but not worth the money if you dont drive it a huge amount. I am thinking between the ford taurus sho or the 2.0l ecoboosted fusion titanium. I like the mpg of the fusion, but the race package on the taurus is nice too

Re: New Car ..,,

Then have your dad drive the SHO and the new Fusion with the 2.0L Eco, if you can find one near you, and decide which one he likes. He's probably going to love both. They will both handle very well, the Fusion's handling is quite sporty actually. Considering how little you said he drives, the Fusion would likely be the better value.

It is down to that, the only reason is that I need to inform him on a better purchase thanks for the input
