  1. Hydro, regarding your auto high beams. Rather than fumbling thru the settings menus and trying to disable your auto high beams there while trying to drive, just switch you headlight control switch from "auto" to "on". It will shut off your auto high beams. Works on my car like a charm, and is helpful when following someone on a windy highway because your sensor "loses" the car in the corners and switches the high beams on and off constantly as you go in and out of corners.
  2. I've got a Sterling Grey Titanium with Brick Red Interior and I love it. It's not too bright. The seats are a nice shade of red, the lower half of the interior is black and the head liner is soft ceramic. I've also got all my windows tinted (20% on all 5 rear / back windows and 35% on the front 4 windows) except the windshield, so that cuts down on the light entering the car, making the interior darker. Your headliner may be black, based on the exterior color of our car.
  3. Thank you cyberdman for the updates. I picked it up on Saturday.
  4. I could reply, but I don't have my car yet, and it's a Titanium, soooo...... But rather than starting a new topic, you may find the help you are looking for here http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index.php?/topic/52931-2013-fusion-sub-install/
  5. I've heard others make reference to this program for correcting metadata. I have 3400 songs, and am expecting my Titanium in a week or 2. I would like to be ready so when the car arrives I'm good to go. Could you point me in the direction of the iTunes sync program?
  6. Ha ha ha, I love when people of forums get to play the victim. You questioning my understanding of what the "E" in ETA sets the tone. I'm quite happy being polite and professional, which is what I thought this was going to be based on the first few posts, polite and professional. You started the tone and the attitude. You may not have meant to come off that way, but re-read through some of your posts to other users and see how they are insulted by some of the things you say. Not knowing you or your mannerisms or your sense of humor (which seems to be as dry as mine) plays a significant role. I understand that it is an estimated arrival and factors that Ford has no control over affect delivery (weather, derailment, mechanical issues, etc.). You seem to be excessively defensive regarding estimated delivery dates. If ETA's are such a major source of confrontation for you, simply say "See Rule #10 and #20" on your first reply to users when providing an ETA. Oh, and don't worry, none of the ETA's you provided were news to me. The first ETA was provided prior to Christmas by my Dealer, and the second was provided last week, you simply confirmed them for me. I should also mention the "delayed" is a direct quote from the Sales Manager, not something I made up to gain sympathy from you or anyone else. I also understand your rules and the need for them. I want tracking information, I provide the VIN. Participate in the community before asking for tracking. No chatter in this section, that's what the rest of the forum is for. I agree with the rules and would do very much the same if it was me. Many users of this forum that are in the process of ordering new vehicles, myself included, are thankful and appreciative of the service and information that you provide on your own time, but you need to understand that you are openly and admittedly an employee of Ford on a publicly accessibly forum. As such you are a representative of the brand, and you need to be aware of the tone of our comments and how you deal with the users of this forum. I fully expect to find this topic locked, as you don't seem to like when users explain or defend themselves in the tone that you have established. Multiple things can happen from here. You can lock or delete this topic, which would not surprise me. You can ignore this and all future posts, which would not surprise me either. You can give me a warning, or have an Admin delete and / or disable my account. Or we can act like mature adults and move past this. Ultimately, it's up to you how we move forward with this.
  7. I provided my opinion of the car being delayed, so that you would know why I'm asking for an update on the estimated day of arrival, as provided in your original reply to my tracking request. Delayed, to cause to be later or slower than expected or desired. Since this isn't the first car Ford has ever shipped, 3 weeks later than the original ETA, it seems to be delayed. And yes, I also know what the 'E' in ETA stands for. Estimated, to calculate approximately. Thanks for the update.
  8. For some reason it's been delayed for 2 and a half weeks to January 31st, wondering if you could have a peek and see where it might be... VIN: 3FA6P0D96ER245719
  9. I placed my order in September, but I knew that it was going to be a long wait as multiple options weren't being built by Ford until early November. It was built on December 17 and was supposed to be delivered January 13, but is now delayed until January 31st.
  10. This is all fine and dandy for someone who wants recurring monthly bills. Pay for it once, and it's done. You've also got to keep in mind not all Countries are treated the same, Ford and Sirius are perfect examples. Don't worry, I watch enough American TV to know that I'm being f@cked over for just about every product or service I receive.
  11. Yes I am, but thank you for the information as other readers may not be aware of that. I'm purchasing this car, not leasing it. A 3 year subscription is $495. With a Lifetime, you're looking at it being free after approximately 4 years. I currently drive a 6.5 year old truck with no plans of getting rid of it, and I see no reason why I wouldn't keep this car as long or longer.
  12. So my 2014 Fusion Titanium AWD is expected in less than a week. I've got the dealer working on a price for a lifetime Sirius subscription and molded splash guards. Is there anything that I should be looking for, any issues that people have found early on that I need to have the Dealer address?
  13. I just ordered the Triple A and the discount code worked.
  14. For the 2013 MY in Canada at least, Ford increased the price of the Voice Activated Navigation system from $700 to $800 in May. That cost has carried into the 2014 MY Fusions. I believe in the beginning of December there was in increase by around $100 to the destination fee. That's the only increase that I can see for the Canadian customers. That's the nice thing about the Canadian system, our prices and incentives are guaranteed when I place my deposit on the order. I won't have to pay any increase, unless I choose to go with the pricing and incentives that are being offered when I take delivery of the vehicle.
