Can a Hitch Adapter be Used to Convert 1-1/4 Inch Hitch to 2 Inch Hitch on 2006 Ford Taurus
You can use a hitch adapter like part # HTAD on your 2006 Taurus and it won't be illegal but you do need to pay attention that you aren't going over the weight capacities. Using an adapter lowers your hitch's capacity by 50 percent. For the hitch I recommend part # C12232. Curt hitches have a thicker powder coat on them compared to others. Then you can use the adapter. We may have another option for you if you can tell me what you plan to use the hitch for.

Trailer Hitch Receivers to Fit 2013 Ford Taurus and 2016 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor Models
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12296 does not fit the Police Interceptor model of the 2013 Ford Taurus. So that's not the hitch you want. However, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame # 75670 will. If you also need trailer wiring to tow a trailer use # 118599. This will give you a 4-way connector. I've linked videos of both being installed. The Draw-Tite # 76034 will fit the 2016 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor. I've linked a video of one we did here. The wiring you'll need is # 118540.

Trailer Wiring Harness Option for a 1992 Ford Taurus Wagon
I spoke with my contact at Curt and verified that the T-Connector Wiring Harness, # C55327, will not fit a 1992 Ford Taurus Wagon. The wagon models have different rear tail light assemblies from the sedan models and there are no connector style wiring harnesses that are compatible with the wagon models. To install a trailer connector on the wagon models, you will need a 4-pole hardwire kit like part # 18252. This kit includes 4 quick splice connectors to connect the wires from the trailer...

Roadmaster has the brake light switch wire (purple/white) listed so that usually indicates that it is going to be needed based on their testing.

Can Kvh Satellite Dish Antenna be Mounted to Crossbars or Roof of 2014 Ford Taurus
According to the installation instructions for the Kvh Satellite Dish that I reviewed online you will require a crossbar spread of 35-1/2" to mount the antenna to a roof rack. However, the roof rack systems available for the 2014 Ford Taurus max out at a crossbar spread of 28 inches, so the dish will not be compatible with your vehicle's short roof. We do offer the Darby Turbo-Rack Universal Single-Bar Roof Rack, # DTA968, (you will need two of these). These bars could be spread to 35-1/2",...

Bumper Clearances of Swagman Chinook When Installed on 2009 Ford Taurus
If your Taurus already has a hitch installed, this rack will fit in your receiver. In order to determine the clearance distance needed, you would measure from the hitch pin hole in your receiver rearward to the furthest rearward point of the bumper, as shown in the FAQ article I have linked you to. When we installed a Class II or III hitch on your vehicle, we found the clearance distance to be 4 to 5 inches. The bike rack you choose would need to have a shank longer than the measurement...
