Have to agree - LOVED my Ex's - here's my old one that went up for sale by the dealer:
Ford : Excursion Ford : Excursion | eBay
but this truck puts them all to shame !!!
went from dfw to little rock for r&r - started out easy learning new truck and new 5th wheel - but it handled SO well I had to pick it up...
found a tandem 18 wheeler going about 75 and fell in behind him for a nice ride !!!
this engine/truck is SO nice - finding new features every time I drive it !!!
so cute with a trailer on it the lane change blink is six blinks instead of three !!!
but still trying to figure out how to disable the backup alarm and camera when hooking up to the 5'er while the tailgate is down...

Love Austin Healy's!!! I must have had ten of them over the years. That was when they were bought and sold for hundreds, rather than tens of thousands like they are today!
They are extra nice with a little Ford V8!

Is there a thread Tom about the new ride? I think I missed something? Is your Fusion the V6 or the I4?

No good place on a truck forum for another car, so I just changed my sig. I got the I4 for fuel economy and cheapness to ensure, as lots is going on in life and I need to save some money. My daughter's been in the hospital for a month and a half and I will likely be PCSing before the end of the year. I miss my Mustang but am loving 32 MPG!
Understandable man. Gotta do what's best for the family and pocketbook. As well, I'm PCSing next week and you can bet it does get expensive to move. Do you know where you're headed?
My brother (1LT in the Army) just put in an order for a 2013 Mustang V6 for delivery after he gets back from Afghanistan.
I've got my ear to the ground for the new 2013 Fusion as a possible replacement to the beater Hyundai.
Just curious. I saw the sig change last week and figured you moved into a more family friendly car.

If the trailer is not hooked up, when you go into reverse with the tailgate down it is alarming and on your LCD screen it should show the on/off for the reverse alarm system. A quick down and OK and things get quiet.

I finally had Ford replace the solenoids in my transmission this week.
For the first time in 29,000 miles, it shifts like an F150.
I feel like I have a new truck! I'll see if it stays this way.
It received it's first ever CEL when I picked it up but the dealer quickly resolved it.
Now, as soon as I'm done fixing an unexpected server failure at work, it's back to my weekend.
