slam away, you don't have to worry about matt, you can always out run him in your hoverround or your riding lawn mower if he tries to catch you with that little car.

All right, I hate to be the one to do it, but somebody has to stick up for Matt.

I've got a 79 F150 (see my avatar...) and a 93 Escort. The little car was my daily driver until my niece moved in...(and absconded my car... ) I've been driving the truck full time since August.

Good friend owns two Focuses...(Foci?) He's out of down, and gave me permission to swipe his little car while he's gone...

2000 Focus 2.0 Dohc. 110,000 miles. Auto.

It gets 26 mpg. My truck gets 8. Ten on a good day.

And the little Focus (the "smurf") just keeps going and going...

Not as useful as my truck, certainly, but a good little people mover.

Matt, drive your Focus til the wheels fall off!

I had one as a loaner when my f150 was in for service once. They are almost as fun to beat up as the people that drive them.

see we can't beat up on Matt too much. just to show you how screwy of a Chapter we are our Chapter Leader doesn't even own a Ford truck! Yes we are a messed up bunch of guys . But I did hear that Matt tried to start his own website called FFE (Ford Focus Enthusiasts) but even the Smart car guys were going there and making fun of the Focus guys so Matt closed up shop!
