Fold down 2nd row seating gives very nice payload capacity.
Least favorite feature:
Center console needs redesigning.
Advice to buyer:
Buy the 2007, the 2008 is just plain hidious looking.
Detailed review:
Imagine Focus performance in an SUV. Agile, efficent and dependable. My 2007 (2.3L/auto/fwd) got 28/35 measured on our trip to Disneyland, and no problems with a fully loaded vehicle getting up steep mountai inclines or fast L.A. traffic freeway merges.
Also considered:

Vehicle purchased:
