Replying to: savetheland (Nov 12, 2009 4:57 pm) "I hope Fusion S does not have electric steering. "   It does. I think it's just the Sport or maybe all the V6's have hydraulic power steering. Check the Ford site to see the specs. Have you test driven it yet, though? I was bummed to hear about the electric steering too after test driving a Sonata, but I think they did it really well.

#143 of 170 electric power steering by jeffyscott Nov 13, 2009 (7:49 am)
Opinions on the new steering system seem to vary. While some reviews have been strongly negative on it others have been neutral (ie. that it is about the same as the best (in terms of steering feel) of the competition, for example:   Car and Driver wrote "the steering was nearly as good as the best in this group" in a comparison with the Mazda6 and Accord.   Motor Trend, in a comparison with Accord, wrote: "Both cars' helms feel overly light, neither transmits much road feel to the rim, and both provide nice, linear response and cornering grip that exceeds expectations".   CR has written: "Handling is responsive. The steering, which is now electric to improve fuel economy, is nicely weighted and conveys some feedback."

Replying to: xmech (Nov 12, 2009 11:34 pm) Yes I did rent I4 Fusion for the week during vacation and did not like electric steering. Drove also Cobalt with ES and it is horrible, Malibu with ES was similar to Fusion but Fusion felt better. Malibu had a better trasmission though and cabin ergonomics were better. But Fision engine feels more refined.
#145 of 170 2010 Fusion SEL 2.5L by hackattack5 Nov 16, 2009 (7:05 pm)
Well I did it I traded my 08 Accord in for a 2010 Fusion SEL with the 301 package. I have not owned an american car since 1994. I will pick it up on Saturday and hope it will be a great car. I might be foolish but I think Ford has figured out that they need to listen to the customer and build a good product. I would put that Fusion against any sedan in the world that is under $25,000. Great job Ford. And no I do not work at ford

Replying to: savetheland (Nov 17, 2009 5:28 pm) Well deserved too!!!! Best damned car I have ever owned.
#148 of 170 weathertech floor liners and cargo liner by hackattack5 Nov 21, 2009 (3:14 pm)
I have a set of the weathertech floor liners in my pickup truck and love them. My question is does anyone know if any of the dimensions have changed between the 09 Fusion and the 2010 Fusion? When I look at the weathertech website they do not offer the liners for the Fusion 2010 model yet. Replies to this message: tim156 (Nov 21, 2009 4:03 pm) hackattack5 (Nov 21, 2009 4:38 pm)
