Fusion Hybrid: Fuel Saving Tips and Tricks
neod192 replied to Fusion Hybrid Guide's topic in Hybrid Driving Tips & Tricks
AC uses power from the high voltage battery, so it'll deplete quicker and the ICE will kick in to charge it.- 66 replies

Are you sure it also works for A plans? My coupon says "A/Z/D plan ineligible.

Am I doing ok on this price. About to pull the trigger
neod192 replied to steveo358's topic in Buying, Leasing & Ordering
steveo, I just priced this for you with X-plan. It comes out to $32,882, which includes the destination charge of $795, but doesn't include the $500 rebate. Add your taxes, tags, docs and take out the $500 rebate. I think your out the door price might actually be better than X-plan, which is great! -
Dead 12 Volt Battery - 2013 Fusion Hybrid
neod192 replied to mrobinso8's topic in Batteries & Charging
I heard about some problems with the battery on the C-max. Maybe some Fusions have the same problem? Check that your battery is the one that should be in the car before you go out buying a new one on your own.- 276 replies

Not defending Ford or anything, but I think the '13 FFH is less efficient partly due to the new Li-Ion battery. It is affected by cold weather more than the old batteries and it's noticeable. Ford gambled by switching to these batteries and it's coming back to byte them in the a**. It's one of the risks a company has to take if they want to be on the bleeding edge of technology. A similar thing happened with Boeing and their Li-Ion batteries - they're now removing all of them from their planes. If this is what causes it, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I like when companies take risks and innovate, but I also hate it when I don't get what I paid for... Maybe those batteries were not ready for prime time, and Ford made the wrong decision in using them.

I'd be interested to see those pictures, since the Titanium shouldn't have any cloth.

3-blink turn signal
neod192 replied to B25Nut's topic in Electrical, Gauges, Instruments, Lighting, Rear View Mirror
When I first test drove it, I would bump it and I didn't realize it was blinking 3 times then stop! Then I would bump it the other way (trying to stop it from blinking after 1-2 blinks) and now I just signaled that I'm turning both ways :) Gotta love it! -
More pics of the same car here: http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index.php?/topic/51500-shipping-eta-tbd/?p=834217 They're all posted by techtoys, who actually test drove it! He mentioned it was as expected, but it didn't have the aluminum gas/brake pedals and the Hybrid badge on rear.

I'd say that's pretty close to the X-plan price, so yes, I would say it's a good deal :) You can make it even sweeter if you get Ford to send you one of those $750 coupons!

3-blink turn signal
neod192 replied to B25Nut's topic in Electrical, Gauges, Instruments, Lighting, Rear View Mirror
So what happens if you bump-and-hold it in the Fusion? Doesn't it keep blinking like in the old cars? -
In the Fusion Hybrid? You're not supposed to tow anything with the FFH .. :headspin:

Congrats! I'm glad things worked out for you. The deal you got is amazing! :)

You can also do the same thing with the GPS Test app. It's mostly an app to test the GPS functions on your phone, but also shows the speed.

The autonomous car

I don't typically put a lot of pressure on it.. Can the warning be turned off? -
The autonomous car
neod192 replied to GreenAussie's topic in Advanced Driver Assistance Technologies
A salesman I was dealing with (didn't buy my car from him) went as far as to tell me the Fusion can sense how hard you hold/squeeze the steering wheel. I was like HAHA I'm not buying a Fusion from you :) -

Ford keeps saying the electric motor and gas engine work together to provide power, but from what I've seen around here it's one or the other.
