Posted this in another thread, but it probably fits this thread's topic better: Ok, just filled up my Titanium 2.0T while tracking this tank pretty closely. Miles are a mix of highway and city, probably 40% highway and 60% city. Drove it until it was yellow with 16 miles left to E. Trip Calculator in Car: 276.3 Miles 22.5 MPG 12.24 Gal Data Calculated by hand: 277 miles 20.89 MPG 13.26 Gal (when I filled up that's what it took) Thoughts?

I got the 700 buck nav and I haven't regretted it either. My reasoning was I was already paying a decent amount to have the MFT screen, I might as well get to use it with everything integrated for a little more cost.

The hybrid is supposed to get 47 right? If they say you're getting 37 that's over 20% off and I'd think should be an indication that something is wrong. My 2.0T is about 15% off. I think Ford is probably investigating all of the fuel economy stuff right now and is probably just telling dealership's to say nothing is wrong until they get to the bottom of it. (This entire statement is just a guess!)

Thanks, seems like troy ford is 300 cheaper than flood. My concern was that these sites were a scam. But I guess you purchase it online and my dealer will seem I'm covered for an extended warranty and won't give me any trouble about it??

For everyone with the 2.0L, does your exhaust get pretty black? Notice this every time I wash it....wasn't sure if that was indication of the engine running rich or something else bad.

Jeff, where did you buy it online?

I've heard that popping as well once in awhile when I turn off the car after driving for awhile.

Yeah it doesn't beep at all but if you remove your hands from the wheel for an extended amount of time it will chime an alert and tell you to keep your hands on the wheels. It does drive itself, its really cool. I think the driver assist package is great value for $1000 bucks, I felt like I got a decent amount of features with it and recommend it.

I have it on mine and it most certainly works. I usually don't turn it on unless I'm on the highway (doesn't work under 40/45 anyways) and it has been pretty handy. Sometimes I have to take my eyes off the road for a second to change a setting on MFT and it does it's job perfect. My favorite "driver assist" feature has to be the blind spot monitor though. It's comforting knowing my fusion is double checking for me

So the tank is supposed to be 16.5 GAL (is ANYONE positive theirs is this size?), I just filled up (meter wasn't yellow or red) but it said I had about 50 miles until E. The tank took 11.54 GAL. On a different trip where it actually got to yellow or red it took 12.17 GAL. I did a trip reset for this tank so I can see how much fuel the computer thinks I'm using but does this sound like it is actually the 16.5 GAL tank? Doesn't seem like it to me...but I'm not sure how much reserve there is.

So what size tank is the Fusion Gas model supposed to have?

Chargercrazy, thx for that link. I can only ever get 14 gallons I think. I'll pay attention next time and drive it until red. I thought the tank seemed really small...

I think I'll do the same. It seems to be improving ever so slightly (currently at 1500).

Speaking on another titanium feature (didnt wanna start a new thread) does every Titanium have the auto dimming mirrors that add a tint at night? I noticed it on the driver's side mirror and my rearview. But the passenger side mirror does not have this feature. Is everyone elses like that? Any reason it doesnt have the auto dimming or is this an issue?

I would say I averaged 70-80 MPH

So I just took a big trip (750 miles), I average 28 MPG for the trip. As you can assume 98% of it was highway. Thoughts?

So does the headlight recall effect the Titanium too? I never received anything from ford concerning it....

I'm at 600 miles and so far that continues to be my average as well (mixed driving). After the holidays if I'm still getting this I'm going to have the dealer check it out. I believe someone on here mentioned it may be running rich or something to that effect.

I asked this same question. It happened the second day I had my car. Hasn't happened since then... *knocks on wood*

Let us know if you get better fuel economy on sport mode (I wouldn't think so but who knows). I'm going to drive home today in Sport Mode just to feel the difference, I've only use it when playing with the paddle shifters a couple of times.

Under settings and system information you can see which nav card you have (A?). Maybe you got one of the first few since they loaded 3.5.1 at the factory. Where did you read the above at??

Well mine had 30 miles on it and had a message saying it was randomly selected for road testing...so I guess they did the breaking in. I need to drive it on a long trip this coming weekend (750 miles) and I currently only have 600 miles. I'm concerned about keeping it on the highway for a long time like you mentioned since I'm under 1000 miles...

I couldn't get the USB diagnostic to work either. It would come up with an error saying my USB device isn't supported. (I was sure to reformat the thumb drive exactly as they say to). I didn't try what Strike did above though.
