Well I just want to know who has the oldest focus, I know Mike (malby) had one of the oldest here, now with him gone, am I the king?
I got my car in August of 2000. So it will be 6yrs in August. Dammm that is the longest car i have had.
Since Iâve had my focus Iâve been in 3 long relationships, drove to California and back with this car. I guess even though itâs a Ford it lasted longer then most of my relationships. hehe :P :P
I really donât want to get rid of this car. Itâs been a historical piece for me. But I guess as they say all good things will come to an end.
Iâm just waiting for Mike to sell his car so I can put mine in the trader right after.

I will look, but we have only had the car since May '04, but I would bet dollars to donuts that Aaron's car is older than Malby's.

A 6 year old car is old?
If you think that is the case Jay, always lease.
7 years is the timeline for deciding on leasing versus buying. If you buy a car and keep it longer than 7 years, you are financially better off. If you want and get a new car sooner than 7 years, lease is better value. And that is coming from the ex VP of Leasing and Daily rentals, Ford of Canada. ie....my pops.
