I was just about to post this myself. It's always nice to here some good news about Ford!

 

There's a lot of interest in them here too!

 

Just a month ago my plan was to pay off the wifes Explorer and get a Fusion as a third car to save gas, and use the Explorer occassionally.

Then she went and traded her Explorer for a F-150 S/C 4x4 ... So, those plans went out the Window.

I'll admit, thats the first sedan Ford has built in a REALLY long while that I like a whole lot. It ranks right up there with the Mazda 6 on my "would own" sedan list.

 

The Fusion is great, if I wasn't trying to buy a new Mustang, I'd trade the Focus for a Fusion right now. I can't wait to see an SVT version. The MazdaSpeed 6 is sweet, Ford should drop the turbo 4 into the SVT version.

 

Hmm, how 'bout a turbo 6?

 

I'd like to get some seat time in the fusion, but I think it will do good things for Ford. Hopefully they don't prop up the sales by dumping them on fleets.

 

havent gotten a chance to get in or up close to one yet...

but this last sunday i was going to my math tutor and we drove by a dealership, and they had a silver fusion, the first one i saw at this place. my tutoring is 1.5hours. on the drive home: it was gone and so wee the three other black fusions i saw farther back in the lot

i definately like where this car is going

 

I just saw most of a review of the Zephyr on Motorweek and they gave it a thumbs up. It seems like all three of the cars are getting pretty good press.

 

And don't forget, the fusion was also one of motor trends 10 finalists for the car of the year award. i think that went largely unnoticed, but i think its a good sign considering some of the other cars that didn't get into the top ten.

 

I love the fusion. I would buy one if i had the money. But i would also wait until the AWD version comes out next year.

That way i could replace my Subaru Legacy with a Ford!

 

ya, i've been thinking the awd is gonna sell really well up here in montreal, after seeing that familiar white stuff. There really aren't too many cars that size and that price that offer AWD.
