For all the people that was burning Ford for using drum brakes on the focus, well guess what, the new Corolla uses them too and I dont see any complains

You don't think Ford's efforts in improving the car in every way had anything to do with it selling better?

THANK YOU! It's only terrible in most enthusiasts eyes because they made it drive like a Corolla. Regular consumers like the way the Corolla drives.

It actually drives way better than the Corolla, in that it has a very direct and nimble feel. They did, however, soften it up a bit.

The sad but true fact, is that there are more people who want a mushy ride, then a nice firm, good handling one.
