Honestly, I haven't gotten anything done to the car since I picked it up from the port. I am not sure if I really want the update since I haven't heard anything positive. I have read that nothing has changed or it is worse. I will give it some time. I have yet to need support but there is one thing i notice...not a big issue, but MyFord Touch/Sync likes to reset my 911 Assist reminder every couple of weeks. I will select for it not to remind me but then a few weeks later it reminds me.

I can honestly say I have gotten my FFH to 115 mph and have driven that for a minute or two. I didn't want to bury the needle though since my car was still new (between 3000-4000 miles).

Yes...a few people looked as I drove by them. I am sure it is the grill that catches their attention. While I could have driven faster I wanted to take it easy during the break-in period. I usually drive 85-100 in my Sunfire. My dealer here said I bought the first hybrid through him...he even asked me to bring it by so he could see how much trunk space was taken up by the battery. He only saw via pictures until I brought mine over fr show and tell.

Well, I picked up my car from the port on Tuesday morning. Drove it 325 miles back home and got avg 43.2 mpg....most of the trip was German autobahn going 70-80 mph. Better yet I still had over 1/4 tank left when I got to my house. After reading the horror stories when I first found this forum, I was concerned. But considering this is the first time I have ever driven a hybrid I am quite happy with my decision to get the Fusion. Just thought I would share.

I can find out after I pick up my car in two days and after the break-in period. I don't have a speed limit on the autobahn near me. :)

I special ordered it on February 25th, it had a build date in Apr or May, and is supposed to arrive at the German port today. Actually I am originally from Michigan and my younger sister exposed me to geocaching. I play here when the weather is nice and have even gotten my wife into it.

Posted my location. I feel so alone right now by I am sure I will start seeing more FFH later this year.
