New daily driver

Traded in my 03 jeep liberty today and picked up a new ford focus hatch. Wanted something that was better on gas but was still fun to drive and that looked good. So far today i averaged 30 mpgs which is alot better then the 14 i was getting with the jeep. Heres a few pictures of the new ride.



Awesome! How do you like it so far? I really like the way these things look.

Nice upgrade, these cares seem really nice.

I wasn’t keen on the look of these at all when they started arriving at the dealer I work for, but they’ve grown on me. No real problems with them at all yet, and it’s a pretty sweet car as long as you stay away from that infernal MyFordTouch OS, and that auto that thinks it’s a stick. We actually have a fleet of them as rentals now. Can’t wait to see the new ST in person, as it’s supposed to quite the E-ticket ride. Nice pick-up.

I drove one of these cars a while ago, and was seriously impressed. Ford has come a long way

My dad’s Focus has been GREAT for him. Bought it with 25K on it and it currently has 185K. I really like the look of the new Focus hatch’s with the 5 spoke wheels

are you feeling ok?

So far i love the car its a pretty big change from the jeep but its alot more fun to drive. i haven’t tried the the sport manual shifting mode yet but i figure ill mess around with it one of the days see how it responds in comparison lol

Every time I see one of these on the road focus is the last thing I think of. Ford really did a great job with this car. I really don’t know much about the newer ones, so I’m going 100% on exterior styling. It’s ford, so I’m sure the rest of it is just as nice.

really like the new focus. The dual clutch gearbox is a little clunky in auto mode though.

Love the new focus hatch’s. Good choice.

My sister has an '11, I’m close to getting her in on the '12+.

You’re going to love the car. I just got mine in December. My trans was a little clunky at first but now it’s really smooth. There is a learning period.

Here is mine at delivery.

A learning period to drive an automatic?

Yes. Learning period for the computer not the driver.

Makes sense now, lol.
