Just found the courtesy walk home light..
Just was playing around in the car just before. When the ignition and headlights are off, if you pull back on the indicator stalk, the low beams come on for 30 seconds after the last door closes. And the car will also automatically lock if you hit the lock button but one of the back door is still open. When you close it the door will automatically lock and flash. |

I also like the global up and down feature for the power windows.
for those who have not tried it yet. go and lock the car with the remote. After pressing the lock button, release and then press it again for another 2-3 seconds. If any windows are down, the car will wind them up for you. (if you have sunroof that will also close) Same goes for unlocking and winding the windows down. Eg coming back to the car on a hot day, unlock doors and then have all the windows wind down to help ventilate the car. |

I seem to recall seeing the Global Closing system in use on BlackLS' Foci on our recent Cruise and saying the exact same thing. I'm impressed!!

When we traded our XR6T in for the Focus Zetec, people asked why, first thing that was said, was we have just bought a GT, why do we need 2 big cars, second thing was well the Zetec has this and this and this and does this and this and this....I knew about the window thing, but now I have even more things to add....thanks Guys .
