What's a "windstar", and what does it have to do with a Ford focus?

Chris

That would be the predisessor to the Ford Aerostar.. The Winstar is just a Front wheel drive 7pass Ford Minivan

He may of gotten confused there is still people out there who don't realize there is a car called a Focus and Probably assumed it was a Newsgroup "Focused" on Fords The alt.autos.mercury.cougar group is crossthreaded like mad of every Mercury car out there
