    LDB415. I tested it out today using MapQuest. It worked fine for me. Put in my number as the format of 999-999-9999 (replace w your numbers, same way as listed in SycnMyRide account). Maps.Goolge.com did not have a listing for Ford or Lincoln (they need to change that!)

    Didn't fix it for me either. It seems to go away (until next time I start my car and Bluetooth) after play for a time (or w some fiddling).

    For the Energi: I would like at least 30 mpg on EV, that would get me most places on EV. Bet my mpg would be in the 500s now, but 126 mpg is not bad. Also they need to change the battery setup to get more trunk space!

    Congrats King! Are you looking to be added onto the spreadsheet or looking for actual information to help you in tracking?

    Oh, I am defiantly seeing it. When I start something like Pandora on my phone and stream it to the car, many times I get these little skips in the the audio and places where the music speeds up, then skips. It sometimes goes away on it's own, but switching to FM or Sirius and back seems to help. I have not tried turning off "Index Bluetooth Device", i'll give that a shot.

    Most of you know what I think, but I'll say it again. The dual integrated exhaust is almost less obtrusive looking then the single Bright tailpipe. The look is much classier and upscale. They should make them the mark of the Titanium trim level...gas, hybrid and plug-in. I posted this for the 2013s: http://social.ford.com/your-ideas/technologies/personalization/dual-integrated-tailpipes-for-the-2013-ford-fusion-hybrid-titanium-and-energi-titanium/?temp_scode=_ODM1Njl8MTM3Mzg0ODY2Mg==

    Oil Changes

    taylorjd replied to tkrupka's topic in Fusion Forum

    I told my dealer not to put their sticker on and they did not (good dealer ) and I replaced their frames as soon as I could. If they are not paying me to advertise for them, I'm not With my Fusion Energi, I am averaging about 155 ICE miles per month. At that rate, I will have less then 2000 ICE miles (10K overall miles) on it in a year. So once a year oil change is almost overkill and sounds pretty good to me. I love this car

    Congrats...I think you will be very happy. Any word on how long it will take?

    My wife wants the same thing, she feels very like a little kid in the passenger seat and wants the same power seat controls that are in the driver seat so she can raise it to see over the dash.

    I did. I did not really check out the interior much, but for performance, the Focus seemed to have more power on the straights, but I lost a bit of time to the Fiesta on the turns. I got a bit of wheel hope and a bt more wheel sequel on the Focus on the turns. Overall, I got a bit more thrill driving the Focus.

    I did and did pretty well, but another guy did much better. He managed to do the whole course in EV, giving him 999.9 mpg (he got a $300 Sony headphones for that). Not sure how he did it, must have started with a well charged battery. I really enjoyed the performance part, taking a Focus and/or Fiesta and driving as fast as the course would allow.

    If anyone is interested, here are the photos from my day at the Ford EcoBoost Challenge Driving Experience (I may post some video later). It was a lot of fun. https://plus.google.com/photos/115104764644546017848/albums/5894960000158414337?authkey=CLqj6IHHqeXi7gE

    I had a few issues with the MFT system. On a long trip, I was streaming Bluetooth and the whole system locked up, I could not do anything until it rebooted by itself (said it was running a maintenance cycle or something). Then I had where I got static for a few of my radio stations (they do run in HD, but were static in either mode). I did do a factory reset and had to re-setup everything, but so far working fine.
