Thats why you now see the NEW taurus with a 3.5L instead of the 3.0L. Its normal..
I too have this acceleration issue but now that my 05 with 6 speed has 99K my car seems to get confused with the hesitant shifting. So now every once in a while my car gets confused on what gear and when to shift too.....so it shifts very hard on occasion. Any suggestions?
