So I received my Ford Focus back when I was a wee lad of about 18 or 19 I believe. It was used, less than 10k miles on it and 10000$ thankfully me and my parents both had been saving up so we bought it outright. I knew from the moment I turned it on I was in love. It purred like a kitten! The gas mileage, first of all, was fantastic. Over 30mpg Highway was pretty darn good and to this day I can still get where I want to go without much trouble at all. I can’t remember having any serious issues since I’ve owned it where it needed to be seriously looked at by a mechanic. In fact not even once! I have to admit though it was not perfect. Since I’ve had it not only have I gone through about 3 batteries, but about 4-5 headlights and 2 sets of wipers. Yeah seriously, that’s it. I mean I’ve had flats and stuff but that’s not the cars fault, you know. It’s hard to say anything bad when this bad boy has driven me across the us and back dozens of times and still goes strong. I can’t recommend it enough.

When I received the car it was used, but it was only used by a little old man that had put about 30,000 miles on it. It was a blue Ford Focus for 10,000 and as an 18 year old boy I was so excited to have a car that was my own and not a junker. ever since I have had it I have had next to no problems with it outside very basic maintenance. I have had to have probably 3-4 tires replaced on it. I have replaced the windshield wipers twice. I have replaced the battery 3 times in the last 15 years. and I have had to change out about 5 headlights. I mean can you imagine the value for my dollar that I have gotten on this thing. you are looking at going on 500$ a year in a few years for a car, that makes it worth its weight in gold considering the amount of adventures and fun that I have had in it. it may be a four cylinder and have a little bit of trouble going up hills at times but that is really the only problem I ever seem to have with it since there is one big hill going into town that I always have to deal with. But I do into town so rarely.
