Ford: Focus St on 2040-cars
New Midway, Maryland, United States
EMAIL : giroux1skgerry@mynet.com
Up for sale is my pride and joy; a 2013 Ford Focus ST. The car has been extensively modded with virtually no area left untouched. It is a blast to drive, putting down 350hp to the wheels (thats more than the new Focus RS has at the crank). She recently took home top honors at Focus Rising 2016 (one of the largest focus and fiesta shows in the world) and she turns heads wherever I go. All the work was done right and with quality parts, no cheap stuff here. The car was recently repainted (less than 5000 miles ago) receiving a full color change in Ford Competition Orange. True Colors Collision did all the paint and body work. Again, no corners were cut here, the car was completely disassembled and repainted so all the door jams and such match. As far as I know this is the only third generation Focus ST this color in the world.The wheels, tires, and upgraded turbo kit were all put on after the new paint job so theyre all still pretty fresh. The car was professionally tuned by Dead Hook Motorsports, theyre one of the top ecoboost tuners in the country. The car has tons of power with almost no lag, but it is still composed enough to be driven daily and get over 32mpg on the highway. There are only two flaws with the car, the first is a small chip in the windshield, I had it repaired the day it happened and safelite guarantees it not to crack further but it is still visible. The passenger side seat also needs the occupancy sensor replaced. If the buy it now is used I will have these issues fixed immediately. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask, and if you are local (DelMarVa area) I will gladly take you for a test drive. I will be driving the car until it is sold so the mileage may increase & the car is for sale locally as well. There is still a small balance on my loan, but my loan company has assured me that there will be no delay in receiving the title once it is paid.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.
Ford not backing down on MPG-based marketing strategy
Thu, Jun 26 2014The Blue Oval may have to back off a bit from the green messaging. Ford has had to lower fuel-economy ratings on a number of 2013 and 2014 model-year vehicles, namely its hybrids. And that may force the US automaker to rethink some of its marketing strategy, Automotive News reports. Ford has spent much of the year pushing its fuel-efficiency improvements, with everything from a Super Bowl ad saying its Fusion Hybrid gets "almost double" the fuel efficiency of an average vehicle (after the recalculation, it's now more like 75 percent better) to claiming the Fiesta is the most fuel-efficient non-hybrid in the US (it's actually the Mitsubishi Mirage) to stating the C-Max Hybrid gets better fuel economy than the Toyota Prius V (it doesn't). Nonetheless, Ford doesn't plan on changing its mpg marketing emphasis anytime soon, the company said in an e-mailed statement to AutoblogGreen. "Providing customers great fuel economy is a key part of our Ford vehicle DNA." "Providing customers great fuel economy is a key part of our Ford vehicle DNA," the company said. "We will continue to highlight our vehicles features and attributes in our advertising and marketing, which includes fuel economy and fuel-saving technologies like EcoBoost and hybrids." Earlier this month, Ford said it would lower the fuel-economy ratings of models such as the C-Max, Fusion and Lincoln MKZ Hybrids as well as most of the Fiesta line because of mistakes in the company's internal testing data. It was the second change for the C-Max Hybrid. The good news for Ford is that its fleetwide fuel economy is up almost 40 percent from a decade ago, compared to an improvement of around 23 percent for Toyota. Still, while sales of Ford hybrids and plug-ins are about even with last year through the first five months of 2014, C-Max Hybrid sales have plunged 49 percent from a year earlier. Earlier this year, Ford admitted that the first fuel economy downgrade had a negative effect on sales and we can find proof in the numbers. Before that the change was announced, in August 2013, Ford was consistently selling over 2,000 – and sometimes over 3,000 – C-Max Hybrids a month. In September, it dropped to 1,424, then to 1,438 in October. It didn't climb back above 2,000 until May 2014. The second mpg adjustment was announced in June.
