Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Exactly, Mines got an octane requirement label right on the inside of the fuel door and it's on the instrument cluster as well. :)

A friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so Yeah."

Yeah, that will do it. You don't even have to bring the battery in....just make sure it's good and charged. On a nice day in Jan-Feb, hook up the charger and give it a little exercise.

I've been storing my '72 Corvette for quite a few years.

I pull the battery, since it has a clock and it will generally drain it (personal experience).

I change the oil, treat the gas and put on the car cover.
