    Don't, that section of I25 to Denver sucks, especially if your office is close to downtown/commerce city. Just drive down on July 4th and watch the hillclimb.

    Thats my biggest back and forth. I really don't wanna live inside denver, but i also dont wanna drive 2 hours extra every day. Most placed I am lookin at is 30 min (according to google) to the office then another 30 back home. Thats not bad.

    I would still not be able to bring myself to buy an RS for that reason...and because its a focus. I hate the focus. But I wanna check it still.

    I think the fiesta is a terrible looking car and you have a way better car then a fiesta.

    The RS just looks fun due to awd and 350hp. Makes tons of fun noises and i love that is a fun standard and only a standard.

    I'd never pay 40k for one. But then again..im not sure what else id buy for 40k at all really at this point. Rather save up more and get an F type.

    I'm all messed up today, I grabbed the spec sheet and my wife's truck has the 2.7L ecoboost, which just sounds wrong being in a pickup. What's even crazier is it feels like it pulls and accelerates harder than the 3.5 ecoboost in her 2011 did. Ford is doing some black magic stuff in the power plant dept.

    Yea ecoboosts are becoming a swap motor. Though they are complex to swap so idk if it'll catch on

    Wow...did you actually learn a lesson about buying cars? Its a miracle..lol

    No doubt. Better interior and more comfort too I bet. Plenty of things to think about when you are spending that much money.

    Ill never buy a car sight unseen or driven.

    yea..okay..


    You were ready to just buy a fiesta based of the raving magazine and online reviews. Was Ben's perfect car.

    I told you to go drive it and something else.

    And look where we ended up. You owning a brz...not a fiesta.
