5 year ownership review Fiesta ST (vid)

[jeff]

This month makes 5 years with this wonderful car. I decided to make a video for my YT channel and highlight my favorite 3 things about the car. Still loving this car, so glad I own one.

Enjoy!

Great video Jeff. I watched it through and even though I am a relatively new FiST owner, I think I already concur with all of your generalized assessments. There is a sweet spot for this car and I think modifying it too much past that tries to change it into something that it isn't.

@jeff Great video! Needs. Moar. Miles! LOL

Still can't believe you still have the stock brakes. Also, 30MPG. You make me feel like such an immature adult haha.

$0 in repairs? Didn't you get actuatored?

Thanks man. Yeah, stock brakes and 30+mpg. Probably driving style but I do give it the beans every time I drive it. Miles....meh...I have all these project cars so the Fiesta gets less than full time use.

$0 in repairs? Didn't you get actuatored?

Actually yes I forgot that when I made the video but to be honest I consider the actuators to be consumables like oil and air filters. In fact I keep them on my shelf in the garage since I've had to replace 3 already. One under warranty and the other two I did myself, I can do it in 20 minutes now so it's not a thing. And my A/C compressor went out under warranty. But I didn't count that since it cost me $0.

So yes, 2 actuators.

30mpg? I'm hovering around 22-23pmg! Have never seen 30mpg but it's a good job I can afford to buy the gas!
