Man, I love the Focus. I had two, the latter of which was a SVT which I call my favorite mistake. I really like the room, layout, and good practicality, and the chassis is fantastic, but if I’m being honest, I had abhorrent reliability problems with both. I got the SVT because I liked the platform so much I decided to give it a second chance, but I could not sleep at night if I actually recommended a Focus to someone.
