What Others Are Asking

Does the 2018 Ford Focus have cruise control?
My car has a few miles left on it, but it’s nearly time to donate it and move on to a new vehicle. My neighbor just put up his 2018 Ford Focus for sale because he landed a work opportunity abroad and can’t take it with him. I have a number of questions before I speak with him about potentially purchasing. For one, does it have cruise control?
