I love my zippy little Focus. I step on the gas and away it goes and the gas mileage is very good. Now all I need is some help to trick it out. Anyone care to help?
My first reaction was...why would she want a bad record player in her car? Then I remembered, these days, vinyl cutters are for graphics, not for destroying LPs! :-)
Hmmm, I've always wanted to do up my white dodge minivan as a Star Trek shuttle...
That would be fun! I have vinyl in black, red, green, blue, white, reflective white, reflective red, and possibly orange and yellow. I can cut text, shapes, whatever. Shuttle graphics shouldn't be tough. I'm sure there's a decent Star Trek typeface out there.
I want to add things like a talking horn and a scrolling sign in the back window. Maybe some changes to the engine too. I don't think a vinyl cutter will help with this.
Focus? Speak To Me!ankhoriteJanuary 26 2008, 05:14:37 UTC
Tell me more!!! More!!!
I need a car oh so badly. Given our finances, it will be a used car.
Why did you choose the Focus? How's the leg room? The seat room? And I'm 6', so I should ask about the headroom, too. Does the trunk do tricks? Open into the backseat or something?
It would make more sense to have this conversation in person, but Savant is working every night and every weekend and will continue to do so for, I'm guessing, at least a month. :(

I went with the Focus because, of the gas mileage, price, and it has good reviews from consumer reports. The blue book value of my 2007 is 15k and I got it for 11k. There are some deals to be had but you really have to search for them. If you want a Focus, start with Koons Ford and Browns Ford. They seem to have a good selection of used cars below blue book value.
I am 5'5 and I find the leg room a bit tight. As, for head room you can lower the seat.
If you still have questions please give me a call. I am home after 8pm.
