It looks very similar, with a higher res picture I think I could verify, but I think that is it. I bought it used, the B2B is expired. I know these things are known to decrease drag, so having one damaged with negatively affect MPG, which is one of hte main reason I got a hybrid to begin with... I don't have a lift and it is pretty hard to get under my car (so low to the ground, which is probably how this thing got scrapped up to much). Guess it's time for a trip to the dealer. Thanks guys!

Here is a picture of what I found. It was raining particularly hard this morning and I hit a few good puddles which is what I think broke this off. Anyone have this problem? My Fusion is only a 2013 with less than 30,000 miles on it... Is it particularly important such that I should replace it? Is it expensive? Can I do it myself without a lift? Any info would be useful.

Okay, so from the sounds of it I need to up my tire pressure and not be afraid of the little yellow gas icon haha. I don't suppose there is a way to disable that low fuel warning? It get's a little annoying every time I turn on the car.

I have avoided using any creature comforts like AC or warmed seating, but living in Florida I drive with my windows and or moon roof cracked daily. I know this affects my drag and therefore my MPG, but otherwise I'd be driving in an oven! My driving habits have already been changed so much since driving this fine piece of machinery. I am a much more defensive driver now, focusing on smoothing my acceleration, drifting, and braking than I ever did with my conventional car. I am also very dismissive of other drivers who tail gate or cut me off. I don't let other people bother me in my car because I am focused on maximizing my fuel efficiency. Driving a hybrid is like yoga for automobiles. Ever since I got a hybrid I've been obsessed with the journey rather than the destination. It is a nice change of priorities.

Yesterday i filled up at just over 509 miles. My dashboard said I had another 20 miles to empty, but I didn't have time to fill up between yesterday and this morning before work. 90% of my driving is to and from work, about 12 miles round trip. Add a few extra miles for lunch breaks and commuting around town on the weekends. I think I only had two freeway trips of short distances, and one short trip in which my wife drove. It was her first time driving my car and she drives a manual normally, so I know it was weird for her which affected my MPG. So, how can I stretch it to 600 miles on my next tank? I thought I've seen people post this is possible, but even if I could make it to 55mpg instead of 49.8 with 10.22 gallons of fuel, I would still only reach 562 miles total. To be clear, I am happy with my 500 miles on a tank to be sure. But I'm always looking for ways to optimize. Any tips? Image of my trip summary

That is exactly how it feels, all the displays goad my inner gamer instinct to try to get a perfect ride every time. It is a very engaging and interactive driving experience.

Sync with Ford MyTouch. The first iPhone came out almost a decade ago and was more responsive than this touch screen.

I was considering waiting on my purchase for this car, but decided against it because of GM's new car launch reputation as mentioned above. Very happy with my Fusion Hybrid so far. Next purchase will definitely be a PEV, maybe even the Chevy Volt.

I just bought my 2013 Fusion SE Hybrid this past Saturday and have been lurking these forums non-stop sense. I figured it was time for me to sign up and say hi and thanks for all the great information on here. Looking forward to contributing some knowledge of my own.
