  1. Thanks guys. After reading this, it all makes sense. I forgot about the fairings :hammer_self: (Thanks lolder) acdii, your right retaining heat with these cars is a good thing. My dealer is great and they even called me back to follow up and ensure all was good with my baby, and pretty much said the same thing. A little bit of a learning curve for me. This is my first CAR...I mean CAR!, Since I've been able to drive some 30+ yrs ago I've only driven pick-ups (Of course they've ALL been FORD's) Well with the exception of my Cobra, which is only a weekend fun machine. Again Thanks guys. Cheers Rich
  2. Hello All!, Well I've finally had my new baby a month now, Love my Titanium Hybrid. A couple of nights ago I bend over to pick something up next to the car and placed my hand on the front fender right over the headlight when I noticed that both my front fenders up by my headlights were warm to the touch, so I popped the hood and the whole engine compartment was very warm borderline HOT, I could place my hand on them, and keep it there, but it is VERY WARM, like I just shut the car off. The only thing is, it had been off for almost 4 hours. I drive an hour each way to work and I'm getting 39.2 mpg. I haven't been running the AC much, and I've received NO warnings what so ever. I called the dealer and they told me to trust my gauges. The plastic shroud over the engine is warm and the metal Hybrid box is very warm. (kind of like the bottom of your laptop after a couple of hours of use) Nothing smells funny, like electric burning, and the hood is not warm to the touch either. In the morning I've checked it and it's not ice cold, but not even close to warmth the night before. Is any one noticing this. I know there is a recall out there, but I checked my VIN and according to Ford I'm good. Appreciate any feedback. Have a good night Rich
  3. Thanks Gents. Hope all works out well with your Fusion acdii, I've never been let down by a Ford, recently selling my F-250 Superduty (award winner) getting ready for my new Fusion. I'll let you know hoe it all works out. Thanks Again.
  4. Hello All, Ordering my new 2013 Fusion hybrid. Was wondering, does anyone out there know if the 19 inch Dark Stainless H Spoked rims are available for the Hybrid, or are they just utilized on the Titanium model? I think they are very nice rims, they're the ones that are shown on the colors and 360 section on the Ford website. Also will these rims have any bearing on fuel mileage? Thanks. Rich
