I can't believe how well you're taking this! Hahaha my truck that I just dumped a ton of money into has huge cracks in its frame! It's a good thing you have a sense of humor.
A friend's uncle had a Ford Ranger's frame rust away in 12 years. There are holes in the rails.
. . . you have Associated Green Slime for brains. And not even new Green Slime, but old gooped out Green Slime.

I'm now thinking of getting a Jeep, maybe!
Should be posting pic's of my wife's new car, but this is what I picked up today. 2014 jeep Rubicon. The quality has not changed from my last......over 25 years ago, but I'll be dammed if I'll ever buy an import!

As long as it was made in the north American area, it's all good. This was the only one in Ontario optioned out the way I wanted, built in south Toledo, Ohio.

Jeep is owned by Fiat now. A lot of Toyotas, Hondas are made in North America, VW has a big plant is Mexico.

We had 2012 or 2011 SE we leased, there was an issue w/ the auto trans, you could hear a slight rattle that was apparently from a loose synchro in the auto trans, dealer said Ford was aware of it and, working on a fix. Just something to be aware of, your 13' could have already gotten the updated or reworked version. I loved the Focus, handled great, nice interior quality, we turned it in at the end of the lease because of the trans issue. We have a C-Max now, very nice. Same platform as the Focus I believe.

Automatics don't use synchros.

Words of wisdom from the Cox bros at my local track.

Yes your correct, the issue with the auto was one of the clutches, would rattle at a certain rpm in a certain a gear.
Thought I'd share this for anyone in need of a large family hauler. We certainly took our time shopping for something but we finally pulled the trigger last weekend. Several mid-sized SUV's didn't make the cut based on our criteria for a usable 3rd...

Upgrade the air intake for sure, no questions. High grade plugs, new plug wires if needed and mid grade or premium fuel will help.
