Default The POS Focus, Part II

So, I go to start the Focus today, and it turns over but doesn't start. Again, turns over, doesn't start. I opened the hood, there was oil, so I smell gas, walk around the car to the back (our driveway is on a hill) and wouldn't you know, gas was leaking out. But it was only leaking out when you started it on (it was dripping when i got down and looked at it, but not a lot). So, my dad gets in it, backs down the driveway, and i push it to the curb.

Called triple A and the guy goes "Well, I've towed 3 other fords today!" And I burst out laughing. Seriously, if he started at 8, and it took him an hour and a half (that's how long it took him to get to our car) that's maybe 5 cars. So 4 Fords.

I washed the driveway off with dawn dish soap, that stuff gets out anything.
