This car is great on gas and is all around a great car. Only complaints I have is the back seat area is not very spacious. With a rear facing car seat in the back the front passenger seat had to be up all the way and we were able to put the car seat in the middle as planed. My pet peeve about the 2010 ford focus is the manual day time running lights. I hate its a separate switch. I sometimes forget to turn them off when I turn off the car resulting in a dead battery.
