I've been thinking...perhaps ford hasn't invested much time, money, or effort on their latest offering of the Focus, because they've been busy doing those things with the 2004/5 Trucks, and the 2005 Mustang, which to me looks like it's gonna make a killing on the market from day 1. Maybe after Ford gets some revenue built up from the new trucks and the Stang, they'll redirect their attention to their other cars. Though the Focus looks kinda plain now in the interior, and a little more "cookie-cutter" on the outside compared to the 1st gen Foci's, maybe that's a good thing for enthusisats and tuners...start with a car that's plain like a Civic, and then do the car up large. You know, let people see what can be done with them like a lot of us 1st gen owners have done with our own cars.

What do the rest of you think? Am I maybe onto a good set of ideas?
