Meh. What's so scary about a Ford Taurus? The only thing that's scary is the fact that you're probably going to get a ticket if you see the flashing lights...

What would be scary is when you're speeding, getting caught by a Taurus (even a high-revving police model). I think the Charger police model takes top prize for being the "coolest" police car.

At least I wouldn't have the humiliation of someone seeing my Dodge diesel pulled over by a Ford......Ben

It isn't so much the type of vehicle but rather the authority that it represents. A cop on a bicycle can pull you over regardless of what your driving. Sure, you can outrun him, but I don't recommend it. LOL

I think the Ford EcoBoost Taurus could actually keep up with the Italians and still have room for the Police K9 and those in Handcuffs.

^ The Edge looks really nice. I'm not a big fan of crossovers/SUVs/wagons on 'roids, but I loves me a hatchback.

I haven't been much impressed by any ford since the '50's.
