Used Ford Focus for Sale in Safford, AZ

I'm a six-foot three-inches big guy that was looking for a small car that got good gas mileage. I didn't have a big budget, so I looked at cars that were in the same prices range and the Focus. Honestly, the Ford Focus had the most head and leg room out of all of them. I also think it looked better then its competitors. It also had great gas mileage. My wife had a full-size SUV that only got 20 mpg, while I got almost 40 mpg. This was huge in Phoenix, since I had to commute about an hour to work. It was a pretty smooth ride also, and I didn't mind that it was a small engine. I think it seemed more powerful than it really was. Can't beat the price of the car either. It wasn't a bad car to drive in traffic and didn't take very long to cool down the car, especially helpful in the hot summer days in Phoenix.

My vehicle is a 2001 but had extremely low miles on it (less than 20,000) when I purchased the car. Since then, I have put 30,000 miles on it and have had no problems with the car mechanically except for routine maintenance issues. The gas mileage is great. I can get almost 400 miles on a single tank. I did have an aftermarket stereo put in to update it. There has been little noticeable wear on where items are frequently touched such as door handles, brake, and dials. It is comfortable to drive and actually seems to be roomier and more comfortable than newer Focus hatchbacks. With the seats down, I was able to move a dishwasher in the back with room to spare on the sides.

My car has lasted forever. It's had some minor problems but nothing big. Considering I am pretty lax about maintenance (I change the oil about once a year, maybe less) it's an awesome car. It's a little small in the backseat and kind of annoying to maneuver in there, but I usually don't need it. It doesn't have any blind spots and it's been in the shop exactly three times. I feel safe driving it and it works great. The gas mileage is okay, nothing special but could be worse. Since it was such a cheap car I didn't expect it to be this good but three problems in thirteen years is pretty awesome. It looks cute (or I though it was cute when I bought it in high school anyway) and it runs better than my fiancée©'s brand new, expensive car.
