Has the Focus had a lot of problems that you've heard of? I know someone who is looking at an older one.

Older ones yes. All depends on how old though. After about 06 I quit reading about them, and I have heard they did get better.

When we were buying a car a few years ago, our price range ended up being in the 05 model years and down. Not all of them were crappy though, but it seemed like there was a decent amount that were.

They are reasonably priced now too. The 08's seem pretty solid though.

Yeah the newer ones seem good. The only thing is, they havent had a chance to get alot of km on them yet to see for sure!

Ever since that whole fiasco, ford (as well as the other big three) have been upfront about improving their quality.

I think you can see the improved quality across the board for Ford (can't say anything about the others). The rebates on Ford's sure is huge right now, but the interest rates on financing is not very good. I thought about trading my truck for a new one but I think I'll wait.
