Ford Five Hundred to be Renamed 'Taurus'
That is right folks. Although it was not officially announced by Ford, The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the announcement could come as early as this week in Chicago.
Ford was strongly criticized when they killed the highly-acclaimed Taurus nameplate and adapted the F_____ naming system. Although many fans are rejoicing for this, some are saying that the Five Hundred is not the appropriate car to acquire the Taurus nameplate.
Is a new Taurus in the daylight of dawn? Not quite, but this is as close as it gets, for now.
