Learn me on a Ford Focus ST

[ELVIS]

I think Sync is just a general problem across all the Ford line up. I've had to dick with mine a few times, but have always been able to get it back online without going to the dealer. The voice recognition has about a 30% success rate. Probably the thing I'm least satisfied with with the Mustang.

its your lisp thats the issue. the sync is fine.

god bless.

It ithhhh not.

Not a single complaint with mine. No mechanical issues, sync works at least as good as any other voice recognition system I've ever used, 28-30 mpg around town/38-42 hwy. I've been very happy with the 24k miles I've put on it so far.

Which model do you have? Titanium?

[BERT]

If I can't afford an ST I at least want a Titanium with all the bells and whistles.


And when I go and visit Skip on Saturday, if I find out I can afford a mustang GT, I will have a real problem on my hands here

I've only had it not understand me once. I had the AC on full blast, which is what I think caused the problem.

I have the SEL. Basically, the only three options I don't have are a sunroof, the sport handling package, and the "self-park". I was out the doors with TTL, extended warranty and everything for well under what the original sticker was.
Thanks again, Skip!

You know you'd rather drive around a 5.0 than a Focus. Come on.

Yes and no. I know if I get a mustang i'm going to want to throw money in it and not really sure that I want to do that. Then there's the whole gas mileage thing and until I move back to that area that's a big deal right now with my gf living up there. Plus the focus seems to have a less boring interior. Call me crazy, I know.

I do like that '12 hugger blue gt they have up there though lol

You might be surprised. I really haven't gotten the bug to do mods aside from some appearance stuff to mine. They are so quiet they are almost dangerous; you don't realize how fast you're going off the line until you look at the speedo. It isn't like driving a fox. A ton of horsepower on demand and as comfortable to drive as my old 2001 740iL.

I love how quite these cars are.

You two quit making points for the mustang lol

New hire just rolled up in a white one with black wheels. It is ok looking

Girls that need four doors and still want a sporty car?

I bought a Trailblazer SS for those reasons lol.

apparently Hennessey was trying to make stages for this car and gave up. here's his one attempt up for sale:

notice in the video he flat out says how much power it should make at the "rear wheels" lol. Guess he forgot it was FWD.
