You're being too kind! What about the Ford Pinto? Better known as the GE Toaster Oven on Wheels! Fried teenage daughters - roasted until they're ..."Crispy"!
Ford still hasn't figured out how to build a gas tank...
Just about every thing in NY was a gas tank recall or fuel pump recall or fuel tank strap recall....
I know, I fixed them.
I drive Chevy Silverados. What's that tell ya...
Car isn't even worth 800! No offense... they're a dime a dozen. 01... Oh boy wait til the valve seats let go...
That was a common one... starts out making a ping type sound. Then. Rattles and clunks... check engine light will blink like a strobe light from the un burnt unmetered fuel entering the EPA mandated catalytic converter. It will plug up solid. So after you paid another 500 for a head or 800 for a complete junkyard engine now your adding a cat to the equation...
Better offload that thing ASAP. If it's rust free ship it to the north east where cars rot. You'll get your money back.
Has nothing to do with Trump. It is a smart move by Ford because CHINA does not allow US manufacturer cars to be imported from the USA. Ford just wants to expand to one the worlds fastest growing economies of over 1 billion people. They want a piece of the pie. Since US wealth is being shipped to China daily.
My brother works for infiniti and says that Chinese students come in to buy cars all the time and that their parents pay for them with cash sent over from china.....
If they are making them there to sell IN China fine. Great business move. However if we import them into the U.S. I certainly would not buy one.

Trump trying to turn the tide of globalisation is akin to King Canute setting his throne by the sea shore and commanding the incoming tide to halt and not to wet his feet and robes.
Not buying a China built care of any brand. I see lower Focus sales.

~$800!
However if we import them into the U.S.
I will not buy a vehicle which does not have a 1 as the first digit in the serial number.
