Re: [MBZ] Quantum pics available

2008-07-10 Thread Bill R
I had the first year US Focus.  Except for the 5 [?] recalls for that model
I liked it. It was roomy [especially lots of headroom for you tall people]
and quite comfortable to drive for hours at a time.  Assuming the recall
stuff got worked out in later years I think it is probably a good choice. I
got about 28+ MPG with lots of interstate miles.

No such issues. I am selling it so I can buy something with an automatic
transmission (for Debbie).  Thinking either a four cylinder small pickup or
perhaps a twin of our daughter's car (Cavalier), a car Debbie and I both
like a lot. Ford Focus is another possibility. Nothing on the short list
will match the MPG of the Quantum but we will have to live with that.

The Quantum was a 'project of love' -- I couldn't stand to see the car go
off to the crusher as it was scheduled to do. But now it is time to move on
to something different.

It's a turbo 1.6 5sp, the only way you could get a diesel in the Quantum IIRC.

I'd offer you a 1994 Mitsubishi Diamante LS, (very nice, even the trunk has

trade the keys than you're asking for the V-Dub.
