My brother rented a Taurus (3.5L) a few years back for a weekend dive trip up in Tobermory. I was wary that it would be able to fit 4 guys, their camping gear, and more importantly, their diving gear. I thought for sure we needed a minivan.
Not so. That trunk is cavernous and the back seats immensely comfortable.
Shame about all those reliability issues. I mean, fak...that's a long list of concern.
