I've been noticing first generation Focuses here in Vancouver lately and it seems like about 90% of the Focuses of that era are wagons. I don't know what that means, other than Ford has its head up its butt for dropping the wagon.

But we know the problem - Americans. They will not buy wagons and they represent 90% of the NA market. The rest of the world thinks they are very cool and practical. I'd have bought a new one by now in a second if Ford still offered them.

I bought mine new in '01 and have driven it from Pacific to Atlantic to Gulf Coast over the years. 150k now.

Powerworks blower, SVT brakes, header, H & R coil overs, etc.

Just added an ST170 grille to go with the headlights and the SVT bumper. I just received a couple of other euro-grilles I'm going to try over the next while (including a stainless steel one - very cool)

Anyway... hello from the west coast
