If it's just for maintenance and not a specific failure you would change the spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, maybe have an upper intake cleaning too.

SOURCE: poor gas mileage on 2008 Ford taurus

Are you using the correct grade of fuel.
Manufacturers claim that a car will do 28 to the gallon.
This is done under ideal conditions at a constant speed on a rolling road.
Wind, hills, overtaking and tire pressures will decrease fuel mileage.
Your car is ok. Don`t expect much more unless you want to drive at 56mph
good luck

My 2007 ford taurus 3.0 sel has 104000 miles and the check engine light came on 6 months ago I refuse to drive the highway because my car is slow to accelerate and it misfires and hesitates going up steep...

You should get the check engine light read to see what the code(s) is. This will help with diagnosing what is going on with your taurus.
It may just need a simply tune-up since it has over 100k. The coil pack may need to be replaced, could be a bad cam position sensor, a vacuum leak...
Most parts stores, like Advance Auto Parts, will check the code for free
