  1. did a trip from chicago to iowa all on highway and got 35.5 mpg got 38.5mpg on way back next day. temps were in teens on way there and around 30 on way home. all done at 65mph still averaging 35.5 mpg overall.
  2. yes my short trips are one right after the other. i deliver Jimmy Johns so its constant running in grabbign an order and heading back out. my average is now just under 37 as it creeps up. going to be taking a trip to Iowa from Chicago on Friday so finally going to see how it does highway.
  3. i never got my brochere.... i also just picked up my fusion last week and only had the 500 rebate available.
  4. I have had mine a week now and am averaging 36mpg here in Chicago burbs. I drive the car for work (deliver jimmy johns) So I am making constant short trips during the day. Have not gone on highway yet. have only just under 200 miles on car so far. I do notice first trip to work in morning has horrid mileage usually around 18 but that is mostly all ICE as battery is charging and car is "warming up" earlier today I did have a 1.5 mile trip that going wound up 58.9 mpg and on way back hit 89.1mpg as EV+ came on as I neared work as the car thinks that is where I live lol. more and more I am seeing most my trips in the 40+ range and this is with temps in the 30's in morning and 40's during day. I also think my average would be a little higher if it wasn't for me taking the car into dealer friday to have rustproofing/scotchguarding ect done. I reset trip one after i got it back and have been getting 39ish overall since then. I don't think the dealer cared about my overall mileage and yes i did a full reset when i picked up car originally when it had 13 miles on it. only through less than half a tank so far.
  5. was built 11/26 and picked it up 12/11 love the car and how it drives. still working on getting a good mpg average. i am starting to think that the 47mpg was with radio off, no heat, no headlights ect lol. right now average is at 35mpg btu i was getting 39 before i took it back to dealer friday to have the rustproofing/scotchguarding and stuff done. while they had it average dropped from 39 to 35 so they must of just had it idleing for a while or something. as i noticed the other night when i was at 39 and sat in parked car for like an hour setting the sirius stations and getting the damn garage door opener set that it dropped to 36 had to work all day thursday to get it back to 39 lol. do alot of short driving trips for work and get alot of trips in the 40's and even had one hit 89.1mpg for a 1.5 mile trip where i barely had gas kick in starting from a stoplight before getting it back into ev. haven't taken it on highway yet.
  6. got a call from dealer today saying ETA is the week of 12/11 which is like 2 weeks after build date. looks like maybe getting faster or could be due to large market of chicago being easier to mass ship to so just quicker
  7. I was told mine was built on the 11/26 by dealer. Ford ETIS site says 11/29 but as of Saturday dealer said ETA is just December. No exact date yet.
  8. terry where on the window sticker did you see a build date? I only can make out the date the sticker was created and the date i am pulling up the pdf. according to my dealer my build date was supposed to be 11/26 but as of the 28th it was just listed as in factory with no eta yet.
  9. mine is ordered in Blue. Dealer told me it had a build date of yesterday but a tracking site tells me friday. as long as it shows up before xmas i'll be happy.
  10. WTH i ordered mine a week before you and my build date is 5 days after...
  11. looks to be around 3 weeks from build to delivery for the most recently built cars. guess I should be looking at a 12/17 delivery about. so about a month to go :)
  12. well the ones that are still not delivered were some of the first built that had that defect that is being slowly fixed and sent out that is the problem with that 20,000 or so cars and why the line in general was shut down in mid september for a bit. cars being built now are heading right out. and it shouldn't take more than a week to get it from chicago up to the land of cheese. you should ask them if they can drop it there and you come get it lol. Being I live in Chicago I also have that bonus that cars shipped via train to the midwest all come through here due to the large rail hub yards we have. so chicago dealers seem to get thier cars delivered fairly fast once shipped from what i have heard.
  13. For those of you that have gotten your fusions when was the build date and delivery date? just wondering how quick that have that turnabout at now that I have a build date of 11/26. hoping it'll be a nice xmas gift delivered lol
  14. Just found out my build date is 11-26 :)
