As an owner of a beloved 2016 Focus ST, all I can say is: fuck Ford. The level of disappointment I feel for Ford right now is comparable to the disappointment a mother feels when she catches her son masturbating with one of her bras.

After an absolutely disastrous experience with a 1986 Ford Escort in the 1980's, I am stunned that my daily driver is now a Ford Focus ST, which is just a new Escort. Jalopnik talked me into it, and I’m glad they did.

I got a 2016 in July of 2016 for 21,100 and I considered it a steal. It’s an ST1, but it’s just as fast as an ST3.
