I'd still like to know how Grog can fit in a Focus..
 






It's surprisingly roomy inside. However...we had to get one without the sunroof. I need that extra 2" of space in the roof. Test drove one with the sunroof and I'm bumping the top...
 






So when's the Sport Suspension and wheels goin on? :D
 






...I want to become a mod so I can afford a new car..:p:....Wait, I can see by the license plate holder that you really wanted a '66 mustang...:D

They already have one and its not his.. its hers, touch it without her permission and face the wrath of Sue. Trust me you don't wanna be on that end..

What's behind the closed garage door in picture #3:D:D:

The Focus and the F-150 are the daily drivers...The Mustang's don't see rain or snow.
 






...But hers is better,lol...:p:...Now ya got me missing my old Mach1...:(

...But one of these days I will do that route again but this time, with a 429 that I didn't get to do before...:D
 






Congrats on the new mileage monster;):thumbsup:

Thanks...I ran it around town today, and then the 3 of us went out to DQ for a treat tonight....Average MPG around town...33.8 :D. My buddy has one and after putting 2500 miles on the motor he's up around 35 around town...not too shabby....
 






My wife had a '98 Escort when I met her, and I called it the death trap. Just didn't like the way it was built. I'm happy with trading a few MPG's for good safety;) S60 get 28-29 average:thumbsup:
 






Nice pick up Draper.

Grandfather just picked up one with the I4 and manual. He just rolled over 3,000miles on her and is getting close to 40mpg. He loves that thing to death. Plenty of interior space and power for that DOHC I4. Ford has stepped up the quality margin a little.
 






Nice Car Draper, must be nice getting those MPG's! lol Is that equipped with the Sync package? Is that auto or 5spd? Did you get that out of town that is has an emissions sticker?
 






Has Sync, 5 speed and Lake Ford did a dealer swap to get it for me.
 






Thats cool, its a nice looking car man.
 






It does ride nice I have to say being passenger.. Atleast this time around, the driver didn't shift into 1st when she thought she was in 3rd. :p:
