Bill Gates Drives a Ford Focus 2-Door?


If you're like us and you too sit at the bleeding edge intersection of technology and cars, then you've spent some time checking out our gadget-obsessed brother site's coverage of CES this weekend. Most important to those of us of the auto-obsessive variety -- was the Bill Gates keynote tonight because we knew we'd get a closer look at the new upgrades to the Ford-Microsoft Sync entertainment system. Who knew we'd also find Gates whores himself out in driving a 2008 Ford Focus 2-door in a humorous send-up on his last day at the office? We asked Ford PR whether Gates drives a Focus in "real life." The answer:

"I don't know why he wouldn't."
Hmm, we can think of around 56 billion reasons. (Hat tip to Craig!)
