We just upgraded to a new old Ford Mondeo. We wanted a diesel Focus, but they don’t really make many and the people who buy them hold onto them for life. So it’s a big car and we’re looking around for somebody to sell us the 1000 litre tank of biodiesel.
I’ve never had maintenance problems with a Ford. They’re simple, they’re easy to fix, they’re cheap to fix. There’s very few cars out there like that.

We miss our 91 Honda Civic Hatchback. That car was terrific. We hope you find a car that is somewhat like the Yodler.

p.s. Love the new layout.

The Scion is cute, but it’s a little small and it’s also a little low to the ground. We find ourselves in some funny places with bad roads come summer camping season and clearance matters. But I’m going to take a second look.

I’ve driven a Focus wagon for 5 years and I love it! I’m selling it now because I got a good deal on another wagon, and I was ready for an upgrade, but seriously, I loved my Focus. It is well-designed, fuel-efficient, holds a ton of stuff and is fun to drive. Ford has made the newer ones a bit less good, cutting a few corners, but they’re still a good value for the price.

If you’re anywhere near SF and want to look at my 2001 Focus, drop me a line Good luck!
