No Reserve: 127-Mile 2005 Ford Taurus SE for Charity

This 2005 Ford Taurus SE remained registered in Wisconsin with its original owner until it was donated to Rawhide Youth Services in November 2023, and it has 127 miles. Merlot Metallic paint is accented by a rear spoiler and 16″ alloy wheels, while the five-passenger cabin is trimmed in gray cloth. A 3.0-liter Vulcan V6 sends power to the front wheels through a four-speed automatic transaxle, and the car is further equipped with a center console, air conditioning, power windows and locks, cruise control, and a factory CD stereo. This Taurus SE is offered at no reserve with a clean Carfax report and a Wisconsin title. The total sale amount—including the BaT buyer’s fee—will be donated to Rawhide Youth Services, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and licensed retail dealer in Wisconsin that assists at-risk youth through residential and community-based services.
