Seriously, seriously uncool. If beige were a vehicle, it would be none other than the Ford Five Hundred. This car was Chrysler Sebring levels of bad; it looked and felt depressing, it was woefully underpowered, and best symbolized how bad of shape Ford was in during the mid-2000s. The fact that Ford actually thought this car would be a competent Taurus successor is beyond me.
Also, these cars have completely disappeared from the roads, it feels like. Back in the late 2000s these were quite common, and now they're almost extinct. I don't know whether it's because they're unreliable, or they're bad enough that no one would want to drive it, but either way I'm not upset to see them go.
