I've owned a Non-Ford 4cyl in the past. Two many problems with it. I wouldn't buy anything less than a 6 or one of Volvo's inline 5s.

Fusion, Milan, Zephyr January 2006 sales figures
Drake replied to robertlane's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Two words. Fleet sales. -
Guess I'll be waiting longer. Oh well just got the X paid for. I can live without a car payment.

Unfortunatly I think the public puts more stock in the Car & Truck of the Year crap. Civic Car of the Year? Ridgeline Truck of the Year? Give me a break. All Honda did was pay out the big bucks for those titles.

I think its a case again of the automotive media overhyping the Asian imports and making the American made cars & trucks sound like garbage. The American brands have definatly improved alot, even in just the last 5-10 years.

I wonder if they plan on ruining stock car racing the way they ruined open wheel racing?

Ford recalls 225,000 due to fire risk
Drake replied to Fusion Team's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
The automotive media has been biased towards the big 3 for years. I think they want them to fail. -
Just had a chance to check out Michael Lavander's pics of the 3dCarbon Fusion. That's a very sweet, well put together looking car. http://mlav.us/car/autoshow06/ford/

Those blue flashing lights behind you mean pull over. :D

Roush sees Fusion an instant Nascar contender
Drake replied to robertlane's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
I would hope so. It really doesn't look like that Ford stockcar body changed a whole lot from the Taurus. If they were able to build on that and make an even better car sounds good to me. Maybe Matt will win the Daytona 500. :D -
I wanna wait for the 3.5L so I can have more power and still use 87 octane gas, plus AWD. My current ride uses 93 octane and when a hurricane starts blowing I'm SOL on finding any gas but 87 if even that.

Article: Fusion plant to add third shift in 2006
Drake replied to robertlane's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Looks like they're anticipating big things from the 3.5. -
Meh. It'll just be another overpriced, overhyped, badly built Dodge.

Jury awards $61 million in rollover case
Drake replied to robertlane's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
IMHO this falls under frivilous. You don't need 61 million dollars because you rolled over. 61 million dollars isn't bringing anyone back either. Most folks that have SUVS don't know how to drive in the first place. They probably also don't mention that it was some kid speeding when he rolled over. They just want to blame Ford for all their problems. I had a blowout at 65-70 mph on the highway in an Explorer and I didn't rollover. Why you ask? Because I actually know how to drive! These people make me sick. The judges are even more worthless for letting crap like this happen. BTW I had a nails in my tire, thanks to a stupid neighbor, that caused it to come apart and they weren't Firestones. -
Ford recalls 225,000 due to fire risk
Drake replied to Fusion Team's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Yep it still isn't as bad as the Dodge Dakota recall where the front wheels could fall off when you're driving. -
That is a very nice ride! How is the ride quality with the 18s?

Honda recalls 25,000 Civics over gas pedals
Drake replied to Lynx's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
I thought it was because they were making high pitched whining noises. :D -
The new 3.5 V6 AWD Nav System with Sat radio HID HeadLamps LED Taillights Make this Fusion and I will buy it.
-
Now that's very nice. They need to get it in the Fusion asap.
-
This is an incredibly stupid and disappointing move. Once again a great example of the moron beancounters at work. One of FoMoCo's biggest downfalls is that instead of car guys running the ship we have the beancounters that have screwed us out of cars that could have been beyond incredible, and themselves out of the market.
-
I really wish they'de have built the 427. Then Ford would have had a real 300 beater.
-
That's the light bar. It's a pace car.

Got mine too. Thanks!

Haven't seen one on TV here yet. Tried watching them on the site and it kinda doesn't work right.
