The Fusion and Milan ranked higher in reliability than the Camry and Accord in a recent study.

But....in all fairness, those two are based an the Mazda 6 platform.
Anyway....step in the right direction for a turnaround.

 

I worked for Ford when the Fusion came out.They are some sweet car's.Now if I can get my wife to trade in the Altima for one

 

gee, what was i saying again?

 

wow steve b is ahead of the times?????????..........nostradamus like even.

I like the higher end ones......

 

didn't Alan say it was an RS?? Really Stripped? or an SS? Seriously Stripped?

 

really, so what your saying is roll up windows and 130 hp, is better than power windows and 160hp?

not to mention a better handling chassis, a trunk, more headroom, etc.

fortunately you are in the minority of people who feel like that.

there are 3 different models, an s which is a stripper and usually a rental car.

an se which is much nicer with alum wheels 6 disc and redundant wheel control.

and the bomb se.

to guys who makes a real good living like some of us on here i can see your point, a fusion is certainly not a nice as my explorer limited, your infinity, or BM$ infinity, but those cars do have their places. for someone making 25-35k per year and is on a budget, there really isn't a better choice, except maybe a 10k focus, like you and alan perfer.
