SalvadorAssumpcao Report post Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Hi all, My first post on this forum.For some of you, I have been hanging around over the last couple of months in the "Blue Oval Forums", under the moniker "Salva". But, as it turns out, I had been registered on this forum under the moniker you see here, for a couple of years.Without ever posting (or reading as far as I remember). Which is a shame that I plan to fix moving forward.So here I shall live under my full name, which I bet few here will be able to pronounce :-) I am a "veteran" FFH owner. Used to own a '11 FFH, unfortunately lost in a collision last Sep. The '13 FFH is the replacement, and I just took delivery of it yesterday.I just posted a gallery of pictures taking at the dealer yesterday. So head over the photo gallery if curious. I have about 60 miles on the car now (had 22 at delivery).Not a huge amount to report. Main points:- love it so far. Worth the 12 weeks wait for my order.- It looks prettier in person than I thought it would (and I had test driven one, in a different color). My quick pictures also don't do it complete justice...- For my 38 or so miles, I am averaging 35.7 mpg. Given all the conditions, a decent number. That's it for now,Hope to see you all in some threads over time Edited January 4, 2013 by SalvadorAssumpcao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acdii Report post Posted January 6, 2013 I got it back on Friday, drove it 120 miles today, still only seeing 36 in it. Whats funny on the way home the 11.5 miles from the gas station, it reported 40. I just looked and said, why cant it always do that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MXGOLF Report post Posted January 7, 2013 I just took delivery of my Fusion Hybrid color Ice storm. Sweet looking color. I have 160 miles since Wednesday just around town and a short country trip. Not as great a mileage as I expected but everyone has to realize cars do have to get broken in somewhat to get great mileage. Plus Hybrids have to be driven totally different than a normal car to maximize mileage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought I spotted splash guards in the pictures by the lake (but not on some of the other ones) If so, are those the OEM ones? I am thinking about installing on mine. Look discreet enough. And hopefully help protect my baby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acdii Report post Posted January 7, 2013 I tried splash guards that are universal, but they touch the ground. Not a lot of room under the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
