Replying to: theman123 (Mar 08, 2007 7:48 pm) ...the best family sedans for under $25,000 The Fusion/Milan are amongst the best.   What they need to do is look at something like best family sedans than can be purchased for under something like $18,000. Then you would have 4 cyl Fusion/Milan (and Mazda6) vs. Corolla and Civic (I guess).

Replying to: theman123 (Mar 08, 2007 7:48 pm) Nope, not a sales person. Just a person on a one man mission to educate consumers! Yes, Toyota/Honda are good cars. But you would be surprised at what people don't know about Ford/GM products. I blame this part solely on the media. We have been inundated over the years by the constant bashing of Ford/GM products and it is now a mindset for some to just bypass anything and everything Ford/GM and go right to Toyota/Honda showrooms. You would be surprised at how many people had no clue about the Camry and its stumble in its first year of debut with its transmission issues. Toyota did a great PR job in keeping this laid low. The media lambasted Ford and the Escape for its first year debut and its recalls. Yet if you actually read the recalls on the 01 Escape it was for a small number and lot of Escapes/Tributes. I can go on and on here... Replies to this message: dtownfb (Mar 09, 2007 1:20 pm) savetheland (Mar 10, 2007 10:24 pm)
#4845 of 5511 CR says Fusion more reliable than Cam 4cylinder by mschmal Mar 09, 2007 (10:53 am)
yes you read that correctly.   Mark.   (the 4 cylinder Camary actually had BELOW AVERAGE reliabilty!)

Replying to: scape2 (Mar 09, 2007 10:36 am) I guess the fact that I owned 3 Fords and 3 GM vehicles (I'm only 39) I can't make my own opinion about the quality of vehicles. Nope brainwashed by the media.   CR did rate the Fusion/Milan well which is why I originally starting posting on this board. Plus I had a chance to sit in the Milan at the local auto show. I liked the looks of the interior and there is a dealership 2 miles from house that has the "Engine for life". Hopefully I will get permission to buy a new car this summer.   Maybe scape2 you should start a new thread called "The Media vs. GM/Ford". Or "GM/Ford: No Spin Zone".

Would appreciate hearing from any Fusion owners who have the V6 AWD concerning fuel milage. I know you pay a penalty for AWD, but just wondering what that amounts to in real-world driving.
#4849 of 5511 6-Speed "Low" Gear Selection by kmaurer Mar 10, 2007 (2:56 pm)
I'm the proud owner of a new Fusion SE V6. I'm very happy with the car and think it's leaps and bounds better than other products Ford has put out in the past. I'm a little puzzled by the "low" selection on my 6-speed automatic. What gears does this engage? On my old-tech 4-speed auto, low was gears 1 and 2. Is this still the case? I'm just trying to figure out when I would use this.   Thanks in advance.

Replying to: kmaurer (Mar 10, 2007 2:56 pm) Did it not occur to you to read the owner's manual? Replies to this message: kmaurer (Mar 11, 2007 2:21 pm) akirby (Mar 11, 2007 7:51 pm) dino001 (Mar 12, 2007 4:16 am)

Replying to: dtownfb (Mar 09, 2007 1:20 pm) "I guess the fact that I owned 3 Fords and 3 GM vehicles (I'm only 39)."   Oh man, what do you mean you are only 39? You are ALREADY 39 and may be too old to drive Fusion, but still not old enough for Grand Marquis. So no Ford for you. But Camry is okay, but it has nothing to do with reliability – it is just lifestyle. But wait there is still 500, oops – Taurus. At least it is roomier and has better chassis and steering than Camry.

Still trying to figure that out, its more than an overdrive lock out. drops about 2 gears.   Mark
