Yay! Good for you! I haven't given up on that trip to England - can't see the HOW of it, or the when, but it's a coming. Love you masses xxx

That's great! I've heard good things about that car. (Not the least of which is Mike Rowe advertising it. ROWR!)

I agree, it's a good car, and a good decision for you. It never hurts to treat yourself now and then!

So glad you got something new that all of you can enjoy. Sounds like a great deal all the way around. Sorry about FIL....you are so right that getting older and weaker just sucks the life out of everyone.

Echoing the GOOD FOR YOU! I am currently driving a 1999 Jeep and am planning on buying some type of Ford in the next few months. This Jeep runs, barely, but it has had electrical and transmission problems all along the way. Have you seen their business plan (Ford/Lincoln/Mercury)? It is the car company to emulate for America. Anyway, DH is pushing the Edge but I am holding out judgement on that, the Escape,Explorer etc. until I sit in one , as long as it has leather. I cannot deal with the cloth seats after all these years on leather, so easy to clean, and slide across, unlike the others. Did you tell us what color you got? I have to go back and check. Go you!

Maybe you can see if it runs right by driving to California!

Atta girl !!! I agree with your thinking that you deserve a little sumpin' sumpin' with that new car smell and no break-down worries to contend with in the future. I have owned a lot of really nice high-end cars in my years, but I have never purchased a new one because the thought of making monthly payments for something that is going to depreciate so fast just makes me break out in hives. Ford has done a damn good job in design and build quality the last 5 years or so and the Focus is a fine vehicle indeed. Great gas mileage, looks very modern and drives and rides with the best of the European luxo-bombs. Enjoy your new toy Luv and know that I am so happy for you right now! Perhaps one day I too will be able to bite the bullet and enjoy that new car smell just like you are doing now sweetie. John in Tucson
