Ford Focus for Download at Official Site

I never use an installer for Maxis-made downloads because they don't seem to work properly with the self-extracting files. I just double-click on the icon of the downloaded item. A window pops up with a description of the item and asks if you want to install it. Click yes, and it's done.

I did. Normally they go to the downloads folder, yes? Well, they aren't. Unless they are in the teleport folder, which would be a little weird.

I did that too and it doesn't show up in my downloads folder either. I don't know where it went since it said it installed.

I believe it goes to your Teleport folder, and is moved to the Downloads folder once you start the game.

I wonder how much Ford paid EA Games for that bit of publicity. Will it start a trend? Inquiring minds want to know.
It's a continuation of an existing trend, I think this is the third real life car they've put up a download for.
It's actually quite sad in an hysterically funny kind of way. Ford is now haemorrhaging more cash per annum than it so recently had in surpluses that it used to buy up "premier" brands like Volvo and Jaguar. I don't know about the situation in the Americas, but in Euroland Ford has progressively migrated assembly operations further and further east. Vans, for example, are now built in Turkey and then shippped back to Southampton to have the gremlins installed. Exceptions to this rule, oddly enough, include the eurp version of the Focus, the robotic assembly of which is supervised by retired Belgian chocolatiers in Gent.
I have way too much time on my hands .... ::)
