I have this 23000 mile ford focus that was given to me for my senior year of high school. It is always breaking and the dealership wants me to trade it in for a new focus- but I really want a honda accord. The ford dealership salesman tells me that I can only trade a focus for a brand new focus and not anything else like a honda because Honda doesn't do that, honda dealerships only takes hondas as trade ins. My brother says that they are idiots! Who is right? What can I do? Am I trapped forever buying fords? After this experience I wont ever drive another ford again. So, am I truely trapped??? Thanks for reading my question.the manager at the ford dealership tells me that what the salesman tells me is absolutely correct. But why???
