Ford employee pricing
- Why do some companies like Ford have a 5year warranty and others like Hyundai have a 10year warranty? Does the company with the longer warranty trust in their product longer? Or they know that the owner will have to do a ton of repairs and without a back up no one would ever buy them?
- Does my car have a place for me to plug in my phone and listen to my own music? I have a light blue 2005 Ford Taurus. I want to listen to my own music and not the stuff on the radio, but I don't think that there's a place to plug in my phone. I have a cd player but not a tape player (is that what it's called? I'm not sure.) Does anyone know if this type of car has a place to plug in my phone or if there's another way to do it?
- Does anyone own this car with this engine? Hi. I wondered whether anyone on here has or knows someone who has a 2011- Ford Focus 1.6 105bhp (petrol engine) and how does it perform, especially up hills?
- Does anyone own a 2012 Ford Focus? Does anyone on here own a 2012 (or 2011-) Ford Focus 1.6 (105) (petrol) and do you find that it struggles on hills?
