When coolant heats up, it can evaporate of there's a way out. Do you have any residue on the inside of your hood?
If you're experience a LOT of coolant loss it could be escaping into the engine through a falling head gasket. In this case you wouldn't see any residue on the inside of your hood.
God speed.
That was my first instinct, I had a 92 Dodge Daytona which had a terrible head gasket. That was what I was seeing with that. The focus looks fine. No loss of power and no backfires so I don't believe coolant is getting into the engine.
