The Ford Taurus
may be timidly slinking out of the market now, but when it was
introduced as a 1986 model it revolutionized the market for family cars
in the U.S. It was a very big deal, and it provoked other manufacturers
like Toyota and Honda to respond with even better Camrys and Accords. In
1992, Ford sold an astonishing 409,751 Tauruses. Only 36,088 found
homes in 2018.
2019 sales through September: 12,494*
