It would do 34MPG at 70MPH. 65, 60, 55 were all 29. Never understood that.
I have exact numbers, but can't remember. The Focus seems to be:
55: 48
60: 45
65: 40
70: 35

That bottom-bracket first-gen Taurus could be a long-legged cruiser. With the four-pot and the five speed, once you got it up to speed - eventually - you could motor along in the fat part of the torque band and have a pretty relaxed trip.
