Hi folks, I got an email today from my dealer- I'll take delivery next week! May 20! It was ordered March 28, 2009 500A Atlantic Green Metalic

... most didn't know much about the car and didn't get much info from them until mid march. We finally got an email from a dealer with a FFH on order with the features we wanted. This was the last weekend of the full tax credit so we went up to meet with the dealer and got all the prices and put a deposit. 2 weeks later the car came in and we picked it up. The dealer didn't know much about hybrids, that was ok since we do, but I hope ford really trains them better. The dealer was saying to us, if you don't go over 47mp you never use any gas!! That of course is false and I wonder how he thinks the electric motor was powered (by a battery that never needs to be recharged??) I do have to say that I was not impress with any of the ford dealerships that we talked to(It was night and day compared to Honda and Toyota dealerships) and if ford didn't make such a great car with the FFH I would have went to another company. So this car is a Win for ford, but they need to work on changing the ford dealership culture YES, I talked to two Ford Dealers... They didn't know a dam thing about the FF Hybrid. What the &*^%#$, I've read every thing I could online. The salesperson didn't know the difference between 500A, 501A and 502A! Very different from the local Chevy dealer who knew every thing about my truck and the Malibu.

What have we all been driving? Why did you order a FFH? I have a Chevy Silverado Z71, last summer the $4+ gas killed me The FFH gets 3X better MPG. I used many of the hypermilage skills to get an over all 19.5mpg, not too bad for a V8 4x4 rated for 14MPG. Lets call my switch to HHF as petro-Demand Distruction! I drive 25,ooo miles per year for work, over a six year period the FFH will save me $13,000 in gas! Thats at $2.50/gallon if gas goes up (and I think it will) I'll save even more. Hope my FFH comes soon!

I stopped by the local Ford Dealer to see the new color "Atlantic Green Metalic Clearcoat" Very happy with the color! I had ordered it without seeing one on the lot- and was a little concerned that it may look too green. It is very nearly black! Only in full sun do you see the green with lots of metalic sparkle! Nice, the Fusion looks good in black, and Atlantic Green adds an extra dimension.

Hi folks We can't drive them, so while we're all waiting... what color is the most popular? What did we all order? I like the White, but ordered the 500A which is not available in White (didn't want the moon roof). Ordered mine in Atlantis Green Metalic Clearcoat with a black interior . No thing like it on the lot. What did you order?

Hi, I'm new to the forum- I just ordered my Hybrid Fusion. Anyway, my dealer had at least 10 2010 Fusion Sports. I test drove a 2010 fusion sport before placing my order for the Hybrid. The new headlights and tail lights are much nicer than 2009 models. They didn't have any Hybrids yet. I ordered it in a new color Atlantic Green Metalic (I hope I like it) on my computer is looks like a metalic Brittish racing green.

Hi Folks Just ordered mine March 29th- just under the wire. 500A I'm too tall (6'6") for the moon roof! too bad too because I was willing to pay for the vision package! Atlantic green Metalic w/ black interior. I look forward to learning all about it with you! Dealer took X-plan. How long do you think I'll have to wait? 3-6months? :happy feet:
