Unfocused,
There is nothing wrong with being a little auto-illiterate(sp) so to speak.
As it is, I have a background in Automotive engineering(manufacturing side) and I love cars, when it comes to the Focus, I was sincerely disappointed with the overall quality, or lack thereof, which became apparent over several months.
I worked for 2 companies previously which were both suppliers of components and machinery to Ford, I can tell you that Ford are as picky as all hell about what they want and are very quick to let you hear if something isn't right.
Strangely they are quick to scream like hell when some equiptment they buy goes wrong, yet they expect teh consumer to drive around in a faulty/potentially faulty vehicle.
Double standards are amazing!!
You will probably find that your local garage is replacing so many Focus fuel pumps that they could do it in their sleep too!! (kind of like the racing pit crews that can refuel and change 4 tyres in a matter of seconds!)
