This is a homerun

I'm now driving my second Fusion, and loving it as much as the first. This car is very comfortable on long trips, and we are getting very good mileage as well. We took our first Fusion to Nag's Head North Carolina, from Ontario Canada. With four adults, and a trunk packed with luggage, we were getting 30 mpg, with the V6. We put 30,000 miles on our 2006 Fusion with zero problems. Other than normal oil changes and tire rotations, the car never went to the dealer. The cars resale value was as competative as the competition when we turned it in, so I certainly cannot complain about that. I had a choice of any midsize for 2008, and had no problems getting back into another Fusion. I find it has more than adaquate power for passing on the highway, and with that kind of mileage, and comfort, I've recommended this car many times over.

worst resale value in any car I have ever owned

If you change your car often do not get this one!!! I lost thousands and thousands on resale value. I did not even loose that much on my mustang. Just look at a used fusion and look at the price comparing to the new one. Ford still did not learn how to make a great car like Honda and Toyota. The fusion is cheap inside, feels like you are driving a toy plastic car. The Gas mileage is horrible on the AWD. I bought my wife the 2008 Honda Accord and it has been a great car. For once in my life I should have listened to my wife and bought the Accord, instead I'm stuck driving this monster and I can't even get rid of it without taking a $8000 loss!!!!!
