When you drive away from a dealership like Robins Ford in a new car, there's a lot to love about it, isn't there? It's got that new car smell, the gas-mileage is way better than your old car, the seats are plush and the dash is completely dust free. Oh yes, we know that new-car glow well, we see it all the time. Even better? Thanks to models like the Ford Taurus, we see a lot of used-car glow, too.

That's right. Used cars get their own love - and a recent list published by Forbes backs that up. According to the Forbes Best Used Cars for the Money 2011, the 2008 Ford Taurus is a pre-owned favorite. There's probably many reasons why, but we suspect it has something to do with its gas-sipping V6 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission, producing 263 horsepower. It's even available with an all-wheel-drive system. As for its longevity, J.D. Power and Associates gave it a top-ranking for long term reliability.

Using J.D. Power and Associates U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study, as well as resale values for well-equipped, like-new, three-year-old vehicles, Forbes produced a list of the eleven best used-cars for the money. Needless to say, Robins Ford was excited to see the Taurus on the list alongside some other really outstanding vehicles.

You can be sure that the Taurus isn't the only Ford model that is just as valuable when it's a couple years old as it is when it's brand new.
