Its gonna have recalls out the ass. But hey, its ur choise.



but it's not a ford; first-year recalls out the ying-yang aren't necessarily industry-wide.

my .02 - drive it. a good friend and former '95 contour SE/MTX owner is in the midst of a buyback on a focus, and if the terms of the deal weren't set up to put him back in another ford he said he'd be in a TC in a heartbeat. he drove one and was very impressed.....

the feature content for $16.5k is pretty impressive - that's for sure.

haven't sat in one, so i can't say how it feels....and i'm not all that excited about the exterior, but it is a pretty decent looking car. i'd say it's pretty hard to beat for the money.....

i personally would rather have an FSVT or something than a tC, but i do respect the tC for what it is....
