this vehicle is brand new and already has wear in the drivers seat.... thats some bad quality leather....

Escape for Mankind commented on 13 Oct 2015

+Matias Petrali The Leather isn't worn, it's the padding and probably inflatable air bags in the seat, which means they all do that.

please correct me if i'm wrong here, but as the gas station, did I see you put diesel into the car, only saying because I saw you use the nozzle with the green handle on it........

Stephen Anderson commented on 05 Dec 2015

+scphares I feel stupid now.... for me it's the same... almost a month later I realized this...

+Stephen Anderson in California green is diesel, so heads up if you ever come out here!

Stephen Anderson commented on 06 Nov 2015

+Andrew SilvaFrom where I see all my gas stations are green for normal and black for diesel... I've never seen the opposite. ever.

Andrew Silva commented on 06 Nov 2015

+Stephen Anderson Thank you so very much for responding, the only reason that I was asking was because wherever you filled up the car, the color of the nozzles from what you were telling me were in complete reverse from where I normally get my fuel...LOL meaning at my stations, all the regular fuels, unleaded, super unleaded, etc, normally have the black handles, and for the diesel, that always mark that one with a green handle, but you may be right though, it probably varies a lot from station to station......Thanks again.......

Stephen Anderson commented on 06 Nov 2015

I know its been 2 weeks but green is normal gas and black is diesel. The only vehicles ford makes that ate diesel are F-250s F-350s and most utility vehicles... Most take gas...

Angela Sarvis commented on 10 Sep 2015

I know that everyone loves manual mustangs, but I was really interested in how the automatic transmission sounds shifting on its own, hence my disappointment. You drive the entire drive in manual mode, so I still don't know how the automatic drives on its on. Maybe in the future you could give equal representation? Thanks for listening!

Angela Sarvis commented on 05 Jan 2016

I cannot drive a manual because I lost my right arm in an accident, so just be careful before you are cruel and judge people.

Jay Birdd commented on 10 Dec 2015

I'm looking at a car like this, and it's an automatic. It's a better deal than most of the manuals I see, and I'd probably use the paddle shifters most often.

Najbron McKagan commented on 09 Sep 2015

thats cos stick shift is antiquated technology. most cars in fact 90% of them are auto. so that's how it is and you gonna have to live with that

presleyandjude commented on 31 May 2015

Yes i have a v6 and its even an manual

Erfahn H commented on 26 May 2015

I was about to buy a stick shift but was unsure because I've never driven stick before. Everyone told me to go with the automatic cause of the constant heavy traffic in the area that I live in.

Marty DeLeon (ImitatingLifeProductions) commented on 15 Apr 2015

Well then get whatever you want and stop bashing others for what they prefer

Xenios9 commented on 25 Mar 2015

drag racers?!?!? auto got the faster straightline.

benzfen commented on 01 Mar 2015

+Scott Stillman mmm... no... I still cant get it... if the traffic is such a problem then the parking is also an issue so this is not the best car for this aria... if you have to sneak in the traffic then you will have an issue with the visibility as well. I used to live in a big city with awful traffic but the manual was never an issue for me...

Scott Stillman commented on 01 Mar 2015

I can, because I live in an area where a manual is a giant pain in the ass. If you live in a sparsely populated suburb or a small city, a manual is fine. If you live in a city where traffic is an issue, a manual transmission becomes a chore. The auto gives you paddle-shifting so you can at least use that once in a while. Also, despite the increased power, the 2015 Mustang was geared more toward grand touring instead of just a drag racer, which adds to its international appeal. Unless you're a frequent visitor to a race track, getting an auto actually makes a lot of sense. Think of it as greatly discounted Aston Martin.

Can't take my eyes away from it lol! And while you drive the mouth goes slightly left... slightly right... the car is staring back at me and its amazed ROFL.

+wonderwall135 disgusting? have you ever drove that in your life? what car has better interior tell me..

Garrett McKie commented on 05 Nov 2015

+wonderwall135 true, but with BMW and Mercedes only the low end models have the flimsy screen not built in. With BMW it's the 3 series and the 5, 6, and 7 series are all in dash systems. Likewise with Mercedes. The Mazda 3 is a great car, but uses more plastics then the Focus Titanium. The Mazda and the Focus are the best compacts I've ever driven. I would buy a Mazda, but for me the Focus felt right at home. Plus, once my car is paid off I could trade in for a Mazda and try owning one myself.

wonderwall135 commented on 04 Nov 2015

Well then we disagree. I feel the Mazda has way better quality and much nicer handling. I don't mind the on top infotainment. BMW and Mercedes have that too so hey it's not in bad company.

Garrett McKie commented on 04 Nov 2015

+wonderwall135 I liked the Mazda 3 but the navigation system isn't fully built in, it looks like Mazda just slapped it in there. But the engine is really peppy just a like the focus. I test drove every compact and mid size sedan on the market, and the focus was the best compact from driving experience and quality.

wonderwall135 commented on 06 Oct 2015

+Garrett McKie I own a ' 15 Mazda 3. Has a lot nicer interior.

Garrett McKie commented on 06 Oct 2015

What do you own that's so much better?

Ronald de Rooij commented on 17 Sep 2015

I wonder if manual transmissions get more popular in the United States, or if it can vary from State to State? By the way I am European and I prefer automatics :-). One comment on the shifting, though. The way you shift in this vid will certainly shorten the life of the synchromeshes in the gearbox. Don't abuse the gearbox, you will regret it.

Winding Road Magazine What was the cars mpg? Contrary to a lot of American fools who told me take Corolla,Civic,Sentra, I drove a Ford Focus 2014 5 speed manual and my verdict is, not just good, its brilliant, unbelievably good, I bet as good as new Mazda 3, I got an average of 34 mpg combined and on highway cruise at 55-60 mph I got like 42-44 mpgs at times, Also the car rides handles light years better than shitty Toyotas,Hondas,Nissans and seemed the quietest of the lot in terms of wind,road,tire noise insulation as well It had awesome sounding music system, best AC,pin sharp handling as well I found just 1 con to the Focus, thats back seat legroom is too low , even still its got enough to pack 4 of 5.5-5.6 feet tall people, I dont understand why a lot of people detest Focus, sure the DCT had some issues but even still the car is a gem, pity on Americans detesting such awesome domestics,

lllBoggylll commented on 14 Oct 2015

+Ponygt 662 I like it in every way, except, I occasionally do want to drive with adults in the back seat. Don't need an intermediate or full-sizer, but I do want a back seat that won't give its occupants cramps.

Ponygt 662 commented on 21 Sep 2015

+sic22l No way, The Powershift tech had 2 unites the wet clutch unit and dry clutch unit, the wet clutch unites are designed and tested in Europe, all dry clutch units are done by Getrag USA, Getrag is a big company, true its stationed at Europe but its US division is responsible for the DCT on Focus of USAThe DCT on TDCi are wet clutch units they were R&D and tuned in EuropeAbout Duratec, the long gone series of Mazda L series engines, how pathetic man, Mazdas old block was adopted by Ford, but the new TiVCT Duratec for Focus is developed by Ford, USA, dont think Americans are dump like they used to be, they are sleeping giants, poke them they bite hardThe 2.0 Duratec is also used in Ginetta cars, but thats in the 200 HP tune, thats completely developed by Ford Europe-Ginetta partnership, the 160/170 HP Focus tune is an American made tune

sic22l commented on 21 Sep 2015

+Ponygt 662 Powershift dual cltch gearbox was designed in Europe, in a joint-venture with Getrag in order to compete with VW's DSG. The engine was designed by Mazda. Current focus is domestic because it's assembled in the US. It's as american as VW Passat.

Ponygt 662 commented on 20 Sep 2015

+sic22l Whatever its made in USA as of now, also the 2.0 Duratec with Powershift AT was mated and designed in US, so is the MyFord Touch, so is the Mk3 Focuses BLIS etc

sic22l commented on 20 Sep 2015

+Ponygt 662 It's not exactly domestic... Current Focus was designed in Europe, by Europeans and for Europeans. Ford did some adjustments o fit more tastes around the world so it's not as good as the Mk2 EU Focus but it's still nice.

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@DanFrederiksen The drag coefficient is what it is, regardless of size--it's not the be all and end all of how aerodynamic a car is overall, of course--designers sometimes increase it to counteract lift. Looks can be deceiving when it comes to aero efficiency. Take the Lambo Countach: it looks streamlined, but is surprisingly unaerodynamic. Not sure if wind tunnel tests were ever conducted on the Tucker; designer Alex Tremulis may have done WT testing on models.

King Rose Archives commented on 21 Aug 2011

@devilred1971 thanks for commenting. Ford did avoid taking a direct cash handout but benefited greatly from the bailout because without it, Ford's, and every other car makers' supply network would have collapsed and so would the banking system that propped them all up. They also were given cash infusions for various R&D efforts and were the biggest winners in the so-called "Cash for clunkers" program. Ford execs are the first to admit that it saved them all.

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@galoon And Alex Tremulis, who designed the Tucker, is one of the most respected US auto designers. By the time he came to Tucker, he had extensive design experience with Auburn/Cord/Duesenberg, plus solid knowledge of aircraft design/aerodynamics, which he studied during WWII. He went to Ford after Tucker folded, and frequently published articles for Road & Track after retiring. He knew what he was doing when it came to aerodynamics, that's for sure!

patsematary commented on 10 Dec 2010

@neatoauctions: builders were more concerned by costs-revenues ratio, marketing & sales.Safety,fuel consumption & environment and aerodynamics concepts on bodyworks were introduced (namely in USA) following state decrees & rules. Without Ralph Nader actions maybe car builders never reproject safe models,without the "moose hazard" complaint made by two Swedish journalists, Mercedes never fit EBD system on his class A models.

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@DanFrederiksen The Porsche figures sound about right; drag is greater with a spoiler because it's there to reduce lift (and thus keep that speed machine on the ground LOL!) Low drag is one of the reasons why the Tucker's modified helicopter engine could get 20mpg at 50mph, which was pretty good for that time--all US cars were big; that's what most of the public wanted. It took the Oil Crisis to change their minds!

Dan Frederiksen commented on 01 Jun 2010

@galoon porsche drag coefficient is typically around 0.28 without spoiler and 0.31 with spoiler. they claimed it was mathematically calculated. which seems unlikely at the time : ) probably more like pulled out of their ass : ) and yes aerodynamics is an absolutely critical parameter of a car when it comes to fuel efficiency and that all cars were that stupid large at the time is little excuse.

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@DanFrederiksen The 0.27 C/d figure for the Tucker is based on Alex Tremulis's coast tests that he conducted on the car--he was somewhat skeptical of the results too, so he rounded it up to 0.3 as a figure to give the public. Today's passenger cars are between 0.3 and about 0.5, so this is a pretty darn good C/d. Most US manufacturers in the '40s ignored anything related to aerodynamics!

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@DanFrederiksen It's actually very aerodynamic--it has a drag coefficient of only 0.27, which is the same as the 2009 Honda Civic Hybrid and Lexus sedan. It had an aluminum rear-mounted engine and four-wheel independent suspension at a time when no other US cars did. If Tucker had more time to work it out, it would have had fuel injection and disc brakes, too.

galoon commented on 01 Jun 2010

@DanFrederiksen Not aerodynamic compared to a Porsche of course (it wasn't designed as a sports car) but considerably more so than its rival sedans. Look at the car's body and profile compared to, say, a 1948 Ford or Chevrolet; you'll see how much lower and sleeker it is. It's big because it's a late 1940's family sedan; those were all big.

Dan Frederiksen commented on 28 May 2010

I can empathize with a company being muscled out by larger established car makers but what's really great about this car? it's ugly overweight irrational non aerodynamic like many other US car models at the time and since. sure credit is due for seatbelts but still. it's not like it was a fiber glass composite series hybrid electric car

Dan Frederiksen commented on 01 Jun 2010

@galoon 0.27 isn't particularly aerodynamic though, nor does it account for the massive size of the tucker nor is a claimed value of 0.3 the same as actual performance. I'd like to see good simulation or windtunnel data to believe that design has as good coefficient as a porsche

Klottelitsch commented on 18 Mar 2009

I allways compare the tucker to the very elgant Czech Tatra streamline rear engined V8 cars of the same era for comparing please go to the video Tatra 603 Motorsound here on youtube.

Jtrisgood commented on 09 May 2009

A car way ahead of it's time in safety and innovation. The first production car with disc brakes, seat (safety) belts, safety glass and a helicopter engine. And the BIG 3 hated it.

neatoauctions commented on 27 Mar 2010

The Tucker, it's been said, was conceived with an emphasis on safety, yet the car was designed with "suicide" doors. I wonder , why?

+Coupydog well decided not to buy a new car. The answer is simply because used cars have loads of problems. At one point it was scary because my car wouldn't start on the day of an exam.It came down to I would rather have to worry about a 250 dollar payment than if my car would start that day or not.Ultimately decided not to, still deal with small problems here and there change of clutch and flywheel change a compressor and most recently my car is misfiring.If I made more money no doubt I'd choose a car payment over car problems any day. I'm literally studying all the time so I don't really have time to set to repair my car.
