vangonebuy Report post Posted December 19, 2021 Goodbye to my beloved 13 Fusion (Ruby). 106k and minimum service issues.? Sad to see it go. Will miss it's 35- 42 mpg average. Its advanced features are still better than cars offered today. Will check in now and then, But not as often. Thanks for all the good advice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MeeLee Report post Posted December 21, 2021 Bad time to buy a car now. they're all overpriced. Bought mine for $15k, now same car, same color, same mileage, same trim, same dealer is $22k. I'm at 75k miles, and my front CV joints are ticking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raymond J Ramirez Report post Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) The very first car I drove (and was issued my driving license with) was my Dad's 1968 Austin America. It was the first front wheel drive car I drove and its CV joints failed. My 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera also had bad CV joints that were replaced after 20 years. It is cheaper to replace the CV joints than to buy a newer car, so get them replaced and drive your Fusion for another 50,000 miles or more. I keep my cars for over 20 years, so do that and begin saving money for the future electric Ford sedan.

And, Ford left the market of sedan's. Still won't retire.....? Only choice was a Tesla Y. Be well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
