  1. NP, love talking about it. I do agree with MineralstangGT, it is a different type of driving, but I love my Energi. I love driving almost completely silent and passing gas stations with out stopping . But you do pay a premium, that if you don't make a lot of 20-30 mile or less trips, you may never make it back. But I think it is a cool technology, and if it gets a good foot hold, it can only get better. I am doing my part
  2. Then I have less EV driving I can do (unless I charge it). Say if I ran the EV down to 2 miles left and forget to plug it in, on my next trip will only get 2 miles of EV before the car switches to Hybrid mode. So nothing to bad. The Fusion Energi is rated at about 45 mpg in hybrid mode. I think I have gotten that or better. When I fully charge it I get between 20 to 27 on EV (using AC cuts that by a few miles).
  3. I had to put a sign on my garage door to remind me to be sure I plugged-in So far I am 100 miles short of 2000 miles and I have only bought just over 6 gals. I am at 1/4 tank, so I should get gas soon.
  4. Ford thought of that with "Fuel Freshness Mode": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPPs5cGJQoI
  5. It started with rain, but cleared up, dried up and got a bit hot. I think the early rain kept it from being way too hot. Sorry you missed it. but, I think it is a yearly event.
  6. Photo's from the event....did you go? https://plus.google.com/photos/115104764644546017848/albums/5892771163366404513?authkey=CJnmsYTMzsmnPw
  7. HEY, some of the missing options just showed up on MyFord Mobile!!!!, but they are not enabled...is that progress? Some of my other ones that were there before are now disabled.
  8. I did the same, got most of my add-ons before the car. Bought them online and made a deal with my dealership to install them cheap.

  10. Coming up this weekend! My Fusion will be there, but not part of the show. But my daughters F-350 will be:
  11. Added a new plate holder for my license plate (medal with Ford and Fusion on it).
  12. I tried to get my wife to wear one of the clear bras , but she wouldn't go for it.
  13. I can tell you i used the Chemical Guys Foaming Soap (http://www.chemicalguys.com/Chemical_Guys_CWS_101_Maxi_Suds_II_Super_Suds_Car_p/cws_101.htm). A little pricey but works well. I used a foam gun. I also has a 4000 psi pressure washer that helps to really foam it up.
  14. I have a list . I am on vacation, using my iPad, but I'll post a list when I return.
  15. It was such a beautiful day, I gave my Fusion a bath (another bath, seal and wax ). May need to refresh page to see animation.
  16. I agree, I really do not like the "we are exploring", it should be "we are working to".
  17. FYI: Here is a response from Ford I got a few days ago on my Ford Social comment: ( http://social.ford.com/your-ideas/technologies/infotainment/include-applink-with-myford-touch/ ) Ford Social: With over 5 million SYNC-equipped vehicles sold, Ford is working to complete the roll-out of AppLink across all basic SYNC systems, including making it available for older model vehicles. However, we are exploring the possibility of bringing Applink to MyFord Touch in the future. Stay tuned! 11 day(s) ago via Ford Social
  18. It would beat sitting on a telephone book (they still have those right? ).
  19. FYI: The last response I got from Steeda was (my hopes are on Redline): Jeff, It's on the plate to be looked at. We have no ETA at this time. Be sure to sign up for the newsletter to get the latest updates. http://www.steedafusion.com/newsletter/ Thank You, Rod Williamson Sales Associate Extension 1117--- Steeda Autosports, Inc http://www.steeda.com 1-800-950-0774
  20. PS: I replied: Thank you. You should add a note to the Comment section of the YouTube videos (listed below) to let people know that these features are not yet implemented for the Fusion Energi. MyFord® Mobile - Smartphone Features for your Ford Fusion Energi MyFord® Mobile - Website Features for your Ford Fusion Energi They returned: Jeff Thank you for your email in regards to the MyFord Mobile website. I am happy to share that recommendation with our team. Thank you for your feedback. Sincerely, Nick In-Vehicle Technology Team Ford Motor Company
  21. FYI: I sent an email to Sync Support and got this reply: Jeff, Thank you for your email in regards to limited features on the My Ford Mobile Site. We do apologize for the inconvenience. There are a lot of features such as Community and MY DRIVING features that are not added on to the Plug-In Hybrid website as of yet but is being worked on to be put into production. We value your feedback regarding this, once a date is set we will inform you of the add-ons to the My Ford Mobile site. Sincerely, Tameika Ford Motor Company My Ford Mobile Support Center
  22. Maybe this will explain that idea best: http://social.ford.com/your-ideas/technologies/personalization/customize-myride/
  23. I think Ford did pretty well letting you change the two side screens, now they should let you change the middle. Like I said the more customizing the better. Also allow you to change the sounds too.
  24. I would include a full (simulated) round analog looking one (even though they are so 70s ). I think the success of the Fusion is in it's choices and it's future is in it's customization. One car for all.
