The Ford D186 platform is a mid-size car platform, and was used for three cars and a minivan. The D186 was first used with the 1986 introduction of the Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable. D186 was also significant because it introduced front-wheel drive to Lincoln as well to Ford minivans. The platform was phased out in the early 2000s when the Taurus and Sable were (for the time being) replaced by both smaller (Fusion/Milan) and larger (Five Hundred/Montego) product lines.
