Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner.  That is the exact problem with the Gen1s
(and remember, I have one).  They look a lot like the '87 -93 Mustang GTs
which A) are a dime a dozen, and B) are pretty ugly.  Very squared off and
boxy.  The Gen2 Taurus is a much more modern and aerodynamic design,
although I do think the wheelbase is a little short for the length of the
car.

On the Gen1s and Mustang GT, that lower rear valance is somewhat of a design
flaw.  It acts like a sail on both the SHO and GT, which is why the LX
Mustangs had a few more MPH top speed than the GT.

This is just my opinion, I really love them all.
