As I was changing oil, I was telling my friend about how few repairs 06 ford Taurus is. Aside from fluid changes/regular maintenance items, at 115 000 miles have only replaced one outer tie rod, a/c clutch and 2 idler bearings.

Sure enough, as i'm saying this the l/r wheel cylinder is leaking. But for $12 to replace I can't complain. hooray for cheap parts on mass produced cars.
