Hello everyone,

I am a new member and live in Southwest Florida. I have had my ST since beginning of March and have logged 6500 miles on it. I bought it as my daily driver commuter car. I did not expect to like it, or even love it as much as I do. It's fun to drive, has great visibility, handles so well and I have had no issues with it and average a whopping 39 MPG with it, which helps me on my long daily commute to and from work. I traded a 2016 WRX in for it (for the gas mileage mainly and lower payments) as I took a new job with a much longer commute. I wanted a sporty, good handling, small M/T car with good MPG and white in color- and the Fiesta ST was the answer. I have had many cars including WRX's, Civic SI's, Camaros and Miatas. My only mod so far is a MBRP exhaust- for a little sound. It really made the car- I just love the sound and the burbles it makes. My other car, Friday and weekend car is a 2018 Mustang GT, manual 6 speed. So I have two Fords and love them both.

Welcome!!! [emoji322][emoji322][emoji322]


Picked up a new 2017 in February as a commuter, but mine has almost 16k on it over that same time period [emoji23]

How far south are you? I'm about an hour-ish north of Tampa.

Welcome! You are the first person I have met that has a FiST and then a 2018 Mustang GT other than myself! Mine has a 6-speed manual as well!
