This rental car fucking blows. I’ve never driven a car with this stiff of a ride that also handles this poorly. The interior plastics are abysmally cheap, the cupholders absolutely inefficient, nothing is ergonomically pleasing. The tires are so fucking piss poor that this torque-monster spins tire non-fucking-stop. The head unit is alright though. I’m going to appreciate the shit out of my car when I get it back tomorrow morning. ---

The interior doesn’t compare to ANY modern car I’ve been inside; it’s horrendously cheap. The ride is terrible. The steering is vague, and if those tires are manufacturer spec, I’m surprised Focuses (Foci?) don’t go sliding off of dry pavement (or into the cars in front of them) on a daily basis. ---

Atleast they gave you a rental car and didn’t say drop off your car and have someone pick you up. I never really liked american cars due to the interior. That’s where its important to me. ---

The steering is vague, and if those tires are manufacturer spec, I’m surprised Focuses (Foci?) don’t go sliding off of dry pavement (or into the cars in front of them) on a daily basis. the newer foci’s car nicer. But i think thats fords problem. They dont have really anything to offer the general public. Sure theres the mustang, and F150, but after that they have nothing (although the fusion is a nice step in the right direction) The focus is updated in other parts of the world but not here, i dont get it. ---

i do have to agree with you that the ZX4 is junk. My cousin owns one and thinks its the hottest thing on four wheels…I make fun of him alot. They are extremely uncomfortable to drive, and the ride is 1980’s quality. ---
