Just turned 400K miles on my 2001 Ford Focus. Probably the best car I'll ever own. Zetec 4cyl with a 5 speed manual. Bought it new.
Still hauls me every day back and forth to work.
I've kept a spreadsheet for what I've spent on the car in maintenance and repairs(parts only, do my own repairs) since it turned 300K miles. Spent a little under $1000 on it, including a set of tires and oil changes. Still uses less than a quart of oil (got a small leak around the windage tray) between the 12k mile oil changes with Mobil 1. And still gets me 28-29 mpg.
Showing it's age, metal termites are getting bad. And a lot of dings and dents. It's a deer ace (5 of them), the front end's held together with cable ties and teak screws.
Going to have to get another car soon, would like to find a 2007 2 door hatchback (last year they made them) like this one. The hatchback is so handy, it's like having a second little truck for the farm.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
