Makes sense. Does any one know the Milan/Fusion ratio?

Mine was verified too. Never heard of that before.

Congrats! I ended up with the 502 package as well. Same color in and out. A good deal. Great deal with the $3400 tax credit. Mine should be here in May or June. I'll report when it arrives. Check the sync site to get a full featured phone.

Thanks! and thanks for the info!

Good news (for me). My dealer confirmed that my car will be built, perhaps as early as April. June build at the latest!

Thanks! My dealer will accept an X plan. May just work out!

I usually buy X plan. When will we know if this is possible on the Hybrid? (I am not holding my breath!)

Thank you, Grey. I'll hang in there.

As far as March arrival, another forum reports job one as late as May. I had earlier read that assembly was to begin next week. (Feb. 2). Timing is an issue for me. Has job one been delayed 3 months? Although I am flexible, this also means a delay in confirming scheduling of my Oct '08 order. I may need to consider an alternative, i.e., a Fusion I4, or Escape Hybrid.

Good suggestion. Thanks!

Thanks! That helps. I'm first, but at a small Milwaukee suburban dealer. My order number is "7000." My guess is that this is just a general place holder. I'm replacing my '06 leased vehicle which is due back in May. I would appreciate any advice. Checked with dealer...the believe they will get one. If so, it is mine.

I ordered a Fusion hybrid on Oct 27. (the second day the book was open.) Put $500. down. My inside buddies at Ford tell me that Ford is unlikely to schedule my order. I'll know for sure sometiime in Feb. Apparently I'm not in a market they wish to focus on. Too early to over-react, but this is disappointing to say the least.

I've had that tire on a c class Mercedes. You will like it. Good snow tire. Better on ice than any other tire I have driven. Personally I'd go with the 205 or 215, if the diameter is ok. For snow tires narrower is better.
