+'''Mollie McConnell ''' ([[24 September]] [[1865]], [[Chicago]]  - [[9 December]] [[1920]], [[Los Angeles]]) was an [[United States|American]] [[silent film]] [[actress]] of the earlier era. Before her 1913 movie debut she was a national and international theater performer. In 1914 she signed a contract with [[Balboa Films]] and played matronly roles in many of their films.
-The '''Ford Taurus X''' is a 6 to 7-passenger mid-size [[crossover SUV]] produced by [[Ford]] in the United States. This vehicle was originally introduced in 2005 as the '''Ford Freestyle''', before being renamed Taurus X for the 2008 model year. In Ford's lineup, it replaced the [[Ford Taurus]] station wagon, and for 2007, it slotted between the [[Ford Edge|Edge]] and the [[Ford Explorer|Explorer]].  It is sold in the [[United States]] and [[Canada]], as well as [[South Korea]] and the [[U.S. territories]] of [[Puerto Rico]], [[U.S. Virgin Islands]], and [[Guam]].

-Initially going to be called the '''Ford CrossTrainer''' in development before adopting the Freestyle name as part of Ford's then-naming strategy of naming all cars with the letter F, the Freestyle was previewed at the 2003 Detroit Auto Show with a Freestyle Concept before entering production for the 2005 model year. The vehicle was assembled at [[Chicago Assembly]].

-The vehicle used the [[Ford D3 platform]], which it shared with the [[Ford Five Hundred]], [[Mercury Montego]], and various [[Volvo Cars|Volvos]] including the [[Volvo XC90|XC90]].  Although it shared its platform with the XC90, the two vehicles are significantly different.  The Freestyle has three rows of seats with seating for seven, like many larger SUVs (e.g. Ford Explorer) and [[minivan]]s. The Freestyle features what Ford describes as "command seating," seating with a higher [[H-point]], to increase driver visibility and ease of entry and exit.

-The Freestyle, along with the Five Hundred and the [[Ford Escape Hybrid]], were the first American Ford vehicles to use a [[continuously variable transmission]] (CVT).  To Ford's surprise, 55% of buyers selected the [[Haldex Traction]]-equipped [[all-wheel drive]] model rather than the expected 40%. However, overall Freestyle sales were below Ford's original projections, though sales were increasing every month. Some buyers selected the Freestyle as an alternative to the best selling [[Ford Explorer]].

-Although the Freestyle resembled the larger [[Australia]]n [[Ford Territory]] crossover SUV, that model is based on the different [[rear-wheel drive]] EA169 platform, used by the [[Ford Falcon (Australia)|Ford Falcon]]. The physical resemblance may cause the two to be confused as the same car; however, the engineering differences are almost total.

-This vehicle was initially unveiled at the 2007 [[Chicago Auto Show]] as a 2008 model, alongside its siblings the [[Ford Taurus]] and [[Mercury Sable]], re-badged, restyled versions of the [[Ford Five Hundred]] and [[Mercury Montego]].  The Taurus X is an alternative to the [[Ford Explorer]].

+[[Category:People from Chicago, Illinois]]
-Ford [[CEO]] Alan Mulally said that Ford's scheme to make all its cars names start with the letter F was a bad move, as it made Ford's new cars easily forgettable. As a result of this issue being addressed, the [[Ford Freestyle]] was renamed the Taurus X, the [[Ford Five Hundred]] was renamed the [[Ford Taurus]], and the [[Mercury Montego]] was renamed the [[Mercury Sable]].

-The design of the Taurus X closely resembles that of its sibling, the [[Ford Edge]], creating a family face for its crossover segment. The Taurus X wears [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]]'s new corporate grille, featuring three horizontal, chrome bars with center mounted blue oval. The car features chrome accents, an aggressive front fascia, and crystal-like LED taillights. The Taurus X also receives a new Eddie Bauer trim-line, similar to that of a [[Ford Explorer]]. The vehicle, like its predecessor, features three rows of seats with seating for seven, like many larger SUVs (e.g. [[Ford Explorer]]) and [[minivans]].
+{{US-film-actor-1860s-stub}}
-The Taurus X is based on the [[Ford D3 platform]] and the updated powertrain includes the discontinuation of the [[continuously variable transmission|CVT transmission]] previously used by the Freestyle, as well as the 3.0 L [[V6]] in favor of the newly developed six-speed [[GM-Ford 6-speed automatic transmission|6F]] [[Automatic transmission|automatic]] as well as the all-new 3.5 L [[Ford Cyclone engine|Duratec 35]] [[V6 engine|V6]]. The vehicle also receives new power options, including power-folded seats and a power lift gate.
-The Taurus X features what Ford describes as "command seating," seating with a higher [[H-point]], to increase driver visibility and ease of entry and exit.
