Used Ford Focus for Sale in Albany, NY

Overall this car has been dependable and the gas mileage is amazing. I bought this car used and wish I had gone with different make. I heard Fords were great until something went wrong and that sums up my experience with this vehicle. It has cost me a lot to repair and maintain this vehicle. I have had problems with the transmission and brakes. I previously owned a Saab which had over 300,000 miles on it when I sold it. I will be lucky to get 200,000 out of this Ford. My father is a mechanic and warned me not to buy this car, but at the time it was what was available in my price range. I had read mixed reviews on the Focus and decided to purchase due to the gas mileage. I drive 70 or more miles a day for my job and hate buying gas!

I purchased a Ford Focus ST just 2 months ago and it is one of the most enjoyable cars I've ever owned. The build quality is very good with Recaro partial leather seats, and no cheap plastic rattles. The 2.0 L turbo charged engine provides significant power through the range of RPMs in every gear. There is plenty of HP and torque to go around, and I cruise through the 6 manual speeds without any noticeable dip in power. The hatch back provides enough storage for the grocery getter and daily driver, but I certainly won't be moving any large amounts of cargo with it. The Sync 3 touchscreen is intuitive and features Apple and Android car play so you can plug your phone into a USB port and have access to travel apps right on your nav system. The suspension is tight, as to be expected on a performance vehicle, and the steering is responsive if a bit wide on the turning circle. I purchased the ST2 package which includes the Sync 3, the HID head lamps, the 10 speaker sound system, and the aforementioned Recaro partial leather seats.
