My first question is why did buy a second, if the first was junk? The next question is how did you buy a focus in the 90's? The first modelwas a 2000(which was offered in 1999)
My wife drove a Focus over 200k miles... and you are pwnd!
(not hers, but like it!)'92 ZX-5 (4 doors and a hatch. ZX-3 was a 2-dr coupe!)
Don’t confuse the issue with facts! Shady hates Fords, and therefore he owned a couple of (non-existent) Focuses (foci? LOL) in the 1990’s and they were crap. In that vein:
Every GM product I’ve ever owned has been an unmitigated pile of excrement, but until now I have refrained from posting about how utterly pathetic GM engineering and build quality has been in my experience. I’d buy a Peugeot before another CheBuPoCad. Then there’s Saturn (cars for people who hate cars).
I’ll stick with my older Fords and Internationals. Reliable, tough, and just a little quirky.
Should I decide to buy new, there isn’t one offering GM or Chrysler can make that doesn’t have the taint of subsidy and 0bama (ptui) to it. I rented a GM Envoy last January, and it wasn’t near as awful as my previous experiences with GM products, giving me second thoughts about my “Just Say No to GM” stance, and then this auto bailout occurred.
