Went from 47 mph in electric up to 62 mph electric? I'm intrigued.

Looks nice. But I don't get Ford's obsession with that color for all their hybrids LOL

Hybrid fanboy effect. A large percentage of Hybrid buyers want everyone in a 3-block radius to know that have a Hybrid, at all times.

Yeah you're right. It's almost more about image than it is the actual fuel savings :shame:

I like that color. If I needed to repaint my gas-swilling, cat-deleted, HCI-equipped, bored and stroked, V8 Mustang, that would be my choice. :grin: Just because. Maybe even throw those "Hybrid" badges on the fender where the "5.0" badges used to be for good measure. :jester: I already get a decent laugh seeing badges like that on GM's full-sized SUVs and BMW's cars.
Seriously though, I like the fact Ford has one of the best-looking mainstream hybrid vehicles on the market. Hope it does well against the competition.
