#236 of 613 2000 Focus SE Wagon - Advice by virs Jun 28, 2004 (8:34 am)
New to the forum. One of our neighbors who were in US from Europe on sabatical and returning to Europe. They are selling their 2000 Focus SE Wagon with 56K miles (good condition - thats what its advertised, I have not yet checked it out) for 5K. Is this a reasonable price? Since its outside the factory warranty, I would like to get an extended warranty to cover any future major repairs. I assume I can't do that with Ford anymore since its outside the factory warranty period. Any suggestions or recommendation of where I can get a reliable one that the local ford dealership would honor.

Does the 05 Focus wagon have headrests in the rear? It looks like the sedan does not, but in the brochure there is a French Blue wagon pictured, and it definately has 4 headrests (seen in silhouette).

Hi cjsb,   If you are looking for something semi permanent you might want to look at a dog barrier. Most pet stores sell them.
#239 of 613 No headrests despite photo by stevengordon Jul 10, 2004 (8:34 pm)
I've queried two dealers and both have tried and failed to find headrests listed as standard equipment or as part of an equipment package.   Apparently the rear headrests prominently displayed in the brochure are built by airbrush artists or by auto upholsterers. One local dealer called a place who said they could install rear headrests for about $250.   That's kind of sad, to have to have someone tear the seat down to install headrests into the frame of the seat. Most of the competition seems to offer rear headrests as standard (safety) equipment.

Thanks for the reply re headrests. That is too bad. I wonder why they decided to go without headrests? The European model certainly must have them.
#241 of 613 Upgrade to CD from Cassette by granolaj Jul 11, 2004 (2:53 pm)
I recently bought a 2002 Focus wagon with AM/FM/Cassette, and I'd like to upgrade to a AM/FM/CD (MP3 would be nice, too). Can anyone suggest an upgrade? Also, does anyone know where I can find out what OEM systems will work for my car? I've seen the Blaupunkt in 2003 Foci; will it fit a 2002 Focus?   Thanks.

#242 of 613 2.3L in Focus Wagon by smpool Jul 23, 2004 (8:32 am)
Will Ford be putting the larger engine in the Focus wagon?
#243 of 613 2.3 is gone by jimjps Jul 23, 2004 (10:02 am)
No 2.3 in the wagons. It is only available in one of the sedan models. If you want a wagon I might suggest finding an 04 which has a 3K rebate. There are some 04 wagons left and the 2.3 is a very good engine. Did Ford decide it was too good for the Focus?

Replying to: carguy04 (Apr 04, 2004 11:07 am) Just getting caught up on this board, so sorry about the late reply. The lumbar support on the heated leather seats are, the heat! Drove from Phoenix to Grand Forks to Winnipeg and to St. Louis and no probs. I've a history of back problems also. Leather is the way to go--don't notice the cold in the winter (what idiot wears shorts?) and although you might sweat on them in the summer, turn on the AC and you won't, duh. Durability on the leather seats? Here's a little secret: the seats are not all leather, just certain panels (you can figger it out... if you're good) Is leather durable--you bet. One setting on the heat, its got a thermostat and THEY ARE THE HEAT when it is -47F below, like last winter. The side air bags are there and hope I never have to use them, so who knows. rr
#245 of 613 Focus Wagon vs. Hybrid Escape vs. Mazda 3 or 6 by suydam Aug 19, 2004 (7:17 am)
I'm starting to think of replacing my Subaru Forester, which is great in the snow but has had numberous coil and sensor problems, not to mention brakes. I have been researching the Focus wagon, the new Escape hybrid, and the Mazda 3 5-door. I want the car for mostly around town, hauling garden supplies and the dog, and capable of getting down some icy inclines in the winter. How have you Focus wagon owners found your vehicle in these respects, and is it reliable? Did any of you cross-shop these other cars, and what did you think? We drove a Focus wagon in Europe and really liked it; it performed equally well in the mountains of Spain and on the toll highway at pretty high speeds. Is it as good here in the USA? We have a larger, roomier sedan that we tend to take on long trips, but will need this car for the occasional long trip and packing a college kid back and forth. The Escape hybrid promises better in-town gas mileage, but I'm nervous about its newness. Thanks in advance for your input.
