Worst car I've drove

If you decide to buy one you should buy a pack of earbuds :)) After hurricane hurvey insurance company offered us a fiesta from hertz. I'm glad that I'm not the owner. On the highway the noise really hurts your ears. It's unendurable. This is one of those cars that I would refuse even if it was given to me for free. I can think of only one thing about this car that didn't suck that is the mpg :) 35,6

I bought my car in February it’s now December and despite its small size I didn’t absolutely hate this car till today when my car needed gas and didn’t have enough to make it to the gas station it’s dark out and raining and I want to be prepared for tomorrow morning so I go out in my other car to get some gas I get back and go to pour it in and it’s pouring all over the side of my car so I take my phone out as a light and I can tell by the side of the tank that I needed a funnel so I go search one down since I’m home I get back and restart pouring and it’s still pouring everywhere so I go look it up and guess what I have to have a special funnel in order to pour my own gas into my own car I’m now soaked in gasoline wet from the rain and pissed because this little car isn’t going anywhere in the morning or actually according to other reviews it may not be drivable till after Christmas because this part may malfunction and then I’ll have to have it replaced which will cost me more money. It’s bad enough the plastic around the windows is slowly peeling back on my back window but I’m seriously mad because in an emergency situation this is the worst thing it’s bad enough to be a female walking to a gas station let alone to have to try for 40 minutes to fill there tank thank god it wasn’t an emergency because ford wouldn’t be happy with me. Update apparently the trunk has a leak in it I hate this car

Over Priced and outdated

I would have bought the 2018 ST model if I could have gotten a deal on one. Sadly the dealerships are selling these cars for more money than what they sold for last year in my region. The new 2019 North America model is even cheaper and less of a value. Why doesn't Ford bring the same specification offered in Europe at a value price to entice this type of a car? I searched last year and this year and was in the market for it however the pricing was higher this year than last year. At 16-17k the car is extremely attractive any higher than this and the car quickly loses appeal as the car depreciation appears to be extremely high. After search high and low for a deal I ended up getting a used car that offers better technology and value. Low two star ratings is based primarily on price. If you can get one for 16K new then the car would be a 5 star for featureset and value. Lots of nice cars out there for the price... Not new but good nice cars.

A blast to drive

I've owned this car since 2019, I bought it new. It's has to be one of the best handling cars I've ever I owned. It handles like a motorcycle on curvy mountain roads, it likes doing 70 on the freeway. I average 32 mpg year around, but have gotten near 40 mpg on long trips. The only Con is since it's the base model S is manual windows, no cruise control and the cramped back seat!
