Ford Focus Usados en Venta en Detroit, MI

This vehicle is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I drove old beater Buicks all my life and loved them, but the gas mileage killed me so I went on the hunt for something new and more suited to my highway commute. I ended up going with a newer Ford Focus after much online review and test driving and, I've got to say, I've got a new love of my life. The engine is only 4 cylinder, smaller than I'm used to, but it has enough power to get me up to speed on the highway in more than enough time, and I don't use as much gas doing it. The MPG is incredible, much better than I'm used to. I get an average of 32 MPG, which saves me a significant amount of money at the pump. Everything about this car feels right: the traction is solid, the steering is responsive but not overly so, and the engine is quiet. The only thing that I'm not crazy about is the fact that if you punch the gas too hard from a complete stop it sort of does a rough shift into first gear (I'm not quite sure how to describe it. I can feel it go, then let off, then go again suddenly, then let off, then finally keep going, even though my foot has been on the gas the same pressure the whole time. This only lasts a second or two.). My solution to that is to ease myself into first gear slowly from a complete stop, then punch up to speed, so that I avoid this issue altogether. I also enjoy the computerized dash. The home screen has radio control, phone syncing, and navigation, and the screen behind the wheel lets you cycle between showing your average MPG, your current trip odometer, and your miles before empty. I love the convenience of it. The sound system is great too, but that will vary by trim. It's also very spacious. I got the hatchback right before I moved, and I was AMAZED at how much stuff I was able to cram in! I only had to make two trips! I also feel safe in this vehicle. Coming from driving Buicks which I was able to beat the tar out of for years and walk away without a scratch on me, I was nervous about downsizing to a more fuel efficient "eco-box". My fears were unfounded. It's small while also being spacious, and there's enough car around me that I don't feel I'll be crushed like a sardine in a can if I were to get T-boned. The safety ratings are all high, and the handling makes me feel as though I could effectively avoid an accident if it were within my power to do so. The reliability is a huge plus too. I felt like I had to take my old beaters into the shop every month. I've been driving this Focus for a few months now without the slightest hint of anything needing work. For a recent college graduate on a tight budget, not having to blow a couple hundred bucks every few weeks is a HUGE relief. Overall, this car made me believe in love again. I wouldn't trade it for anything! If you're looking for something small and fuel efficient for commuting while still being big and sturdy enough to protect you and to accommodate all your cargo holding needs, I can't recommend the newer Ford Focus Hatchback enough.

I've had my Ford Focus for about four years now. I bought it used, and I was the second owner. It has been a great car for me, and I still use it as my daily driver. It is starting to rust out along the bottom though pretty bad. It gets great gas mileage, which is perfect for me going to school. I live in a pretty rule area, so sometimes it's hard to get around in the little car. I live in Michigan, so we get a lot of snow, and this car is absolutely awful in the snow. It's just so tiny tires in the back end likes to go out from behind you. It's saved me a lot of money on gas since I am going to school so that I'm thankful for. It has been very dependable and has gone took many other states such as Kentucky, Wisconsin, and Tennessee. I really don't think I put any money into it other than basic stuff such as tires oil changes parts that need to be replaced because it's old. Overall has been a great car, but I'm ready for something new.
