The sedan still lives!

Hey all!
Noticed the mnfocus.com stick on my car still(sorry for the bad rep!) and thought I'd drop in to see what's up.
2 kids later I still have the 2001 Focus Sedan SE now with 177k miles!
I think the biggest accomplishment is the fact that I haven't had to replace my tranny.
Hope everyone is doing good.
I applied to join the facebook group, name is Nick Blume if you don't remember.

you sure about that? It's falling apart at this point, but I'll go out at lunch and snap a pic so you can remember.

Just walked out into the parking lot and took a pic.
My antenna is still broken, too lazy to fix it.
Nothing I did to the car while in the club is really visible from the outside.

You don't see a lot of fat sixes these days, still my favorite stock Focus wheel.

that's because the type of tire that fits on those suckers is crazy expensive.

205-50-16s are expensive?
You need to shop around more for tires.

That's what I was thinking. Price out some low profile sport tires for a 19 or 20 inch rim. Would cost more a piece than an entire set of 205/50/16s
