At first, there was nothing desirable about the Focus. I had to search and search for its potential and finally started liking it. Then it broke down... twice. see full Ford Focus review |

Early Focus models has some problems. The Focus seems to be marketed almost exclusily towards the younger crowd. see full Ford Focus review |

This is a very good car. However, people look down on Ford. It will take Ford years to regain the image of decent, reliable transport - which is what the Focus excels at. see full Ford Focus review |

Jeep Wrangler Brand Reputation: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | With some products, people insist on the "real thing." The Jeep Wrangler is such a product. For decades Jeep has continuously evolved its core model with an unwavering focus on off-road performance. They have improved other aspects of the vehicle along the way, but these have always been secondary. Such tightly focused products and brands have an appeal that others can never have. The Toyota 4Runner remains much more focused on traditional SUV stuff than the car-based crossovers (such as the Toyota Highlander) that have largely succeeded them. For 2015 there's even a new TRD Pro version. And the 4Runner does have a loyal following of its own. But this following doesn't begin to compare to the Jeep's in size or enthusiasm. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
