You won't often find us issuing superlatives or saying great things about one car or another on this blog because, in all honesty, most of the cars out there today are pretty good. Just like people, some are better looking than others, some have more personality and some are more reliable. And they're a little bit like your kids – you appreciate them all for what they have to offer.
Still, its hard not to say good things about a car that stands out above all the rest in its class - especially when everyone else seems to have caught on.
Ford today announced that it has sold 150,000 Fusions this year. a new sales record and the year isn't close to being over. You can say Cash for Clunkers had something to do with it, or you could say that maybe more Fusions are being used by fleets or rental companies. But here's the bottom line.
It's a great car at a great price.
And the price might be getting even better thanks to year-end incentives of up to $1,500 that Ford is offering. With an MSRP just under $20,000 before rebates, the Fusion is very affordable. And here in South Florida, where Ford is trying to gain more market share and dealers are trying to survive, you may find even better pricing.
Even if you're one of those folks that loves the imports, you should check out the Fusion before buying a car. It's worth the test drive.
Be interested to hear comments from Fusion owners or those who rented one and drove it for a while.

Ford is one great company that did things right -- no bailout money, just getting its act together. I hope Americans support this home-grown effort. And, yes, the new Fords are world-class!

ReplyDeleteFord makes really good cars and you'll want to keep an eye out for the 2011 Fiesta, coming soon to a dealership near you.
I've had the pleasure of driving the Fusion during 2 visits to RI over the past year. It's great on gas, has some real pick up and a huge backseat. The back seat may not be that big of a deal for some, but when you have a little one in a car seat...it makes all the difference when they can't kick the back of your chair.
