Is the Ford Taurus Vulcan a reliable car?

Before I bought the vehicle I read up on a number of reviews too and many of them said that the Vulcan 3.0L, while somewhat underpowered, is a very reliable engine. From what I’ve heard, the Duratec DOHC 3.0L is less durbale, and I’d say as a general rule, the smaller the engine is, and the simpler design, the more reliable it will be.

How old is the transmission on a Ford Taurus?

I have spent less than $700 in repairs in the past 9 years on this vehicle. The transmission is starting to slip and it is on its original fluid from 1996.
