Looks surprisingly low on rust, dents, etc., for a 400,000+ mile body.

If it's the stock HF lean burn engine and trans that's almost a unicorn nowdays. Easily pull 50+ mpg city And highway.

Most of these were riced up with Naaws and such.

Sad and happy this is so far away. Would be a fun commuter toy. Is that a thing??

I was planning to try to make it a thing.

It is highly likely that my daily commute will go from about 15 miles round trip to 50 so I've been using that as an excuse to justify my constant search for the perfect car. Now the quest has me looking on the higher mpg end of the spectrum.

I almost had myself convinced to buy a '16 Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost Sedan with 2,000 miles for $12,995. If it were a hatch it would have been in my driveway shortly after finding it on autotrader.

Is that a tow bar on the front?

In reply to TiggerWelder:

Ah, that would explain the high miles! Towed behind an RV! I had assumed it was a cobbled together light bar of sorts.
