I have to stop having so much fun with my Fiesta, because we all know "time flies when you're having fun" and I want these next 6 months to "Creep" by slowly, LOL. So, I took a roadtrip to SoCal last week and I realized that I had hit 1,000 miles! Most of them were high way miles, from when I picked up ChickPea in Los Angeles and I had to drive home to Fresno. Plus driving back to Los Angeles.
Everyone asks, "What do you think of the Ford Fiesta now that you've hit 1,000 miles?" I still feel the same way I did when I picked it up (exept now I know how to work the radio..LOL)
The car is great.
First of all (and most importantly) when taking road trips and driving long distances, there are always issues with being seated for so long, and not having any lumbar support.
That has not been a problem in this car! On the right side of the driver's seat, there is a small knob. As you twist it, the seat adjusts and curves to support your back! What a relief!
I also love the voice activated controls, I am getting so spoiled driving this car. How many cars out on American roads have a system for you to tell the A/C to turn on without even taking your hands off of the steering wheel?
Go ahead and think! I'll wait! LOL :P
I really like everything about this car. BUT there are TWO things that I hope the USA version has on it:
1)Arm rest for driver (dont need it ALL the time, but it could be a big help)
2)The little temperature gauge you see on a lot of cars (you know, the one for the engine that says "C" and "H") I think that the gaugge would help when you're down shifting, going through mountains and hills!
That's it.
Other than that, the car is PERFECT!
Not to mention it turns heads..Sure the bright pink flowers on the side help, but I think the bright green color and the curves and angles on the car catch people's eyes first!
I love seeing the looks that people get when they see the car. Even the kids at my sisters Elementary school wave happily when they see me! It prompts questions at stop lights and has people going out of their way to walk by and check it out in parking lots.
The bottom line is.
I love it!
