Hi everyone - has you can see from Tony's Tips for buying the Focus Electric in the Buying/Leasing section, I'm a hardball negotiator and last year I got my focus for really low numbers which after the Tax rebate it was just sub-$20K (although I feel theses deals are easy to be had if you try)...

After 6 months my Focus EV is doing great, simply an incredible vehicle for the price. But my mileage is bumping up there, 10K for the 6 months, so on-target to breach the baseline warranty within a couple of years. I've started to look at the extended warranty options (there's a couple of...

Got it out using borax and water solution. Can't even tell the chocolate was there and no wear on seat. Looks like borax is good cleaning solution for these car seats material.

I love this car despite some problems I had and I would really encourage people to buy it, frankly speaking its an unbelievable quality product (that's an understatement) and I've been buying Fords for 3 decades. But bearing that in mind I think people should be aware that its one of those...

I learned this through experience, 1. Quietness. Driving through strip-mall car-parks etc where there's walkers be extremely careful. People will not hear the car and step into your way while half looking. The lack of sound when the vehicle is proximate to them is a real issue. I drive REAL...

I had an idea ... :idea: Could the power in the main battery be tapped to say ... jump start the 12v battery if it dies? Seems like I've got a ready power-source there to get around the 12v flat battery issue.

Another massive drop today. This is like watching my 401K during late 2008, I hope this stops soon.

Discovered the driveway side of my SFH didn't have an outlet after I picked up my FFE - weirdly every other side does!!! Based on reco's here, have been using a 25' extension cord run under garage door with the standard FFE charger. Seems to work good, cable/plug is cold but I'm still a little...

Started commuting with a FFE. Most of my ride is NJ I-95 and the cruise control appears to hammer the driving range. Is that normal - I had assumed cruise control would be the most efficient option, although looking back on it not sure why.

Hi everyone - east coast buyer here on verge of buying a new 2012 base-model for $26K. Guess its been sitting on the lot for awhile but the battery (and entire car) will still have brand new warranty. I could use the entire Fed credit and in my state no tax. Is this a good deal? I do about...
