Looks good Jack. I almost bought one of the Fusions for my wife when I bought her the Focus to replace her old Focus. To get what she wanted on it though (primarily heated seats) I had to load it up with more than I wanted so she got the Focus again.

I wanted the Navigation system so I had to get a huge electronics package that I didn't want originally. But I found this car and it has everything and it was the color my wife wanted and the SportAWD package that I wanted so I bit the bullet and got it. Actually I love all the extra goodies but I still have a lot of learning before a master everything.

I highly recommend it. With 263 HP its got decent power. The ride is very smooth and the handling is great with its sport suspension. I was hoping for the Fusion GT with the ecoboost engine, but its not available yet I guess. But for a DD its a great performer and looks good too.

As a matter of fact I am having trouble with my bluetooth phones phonebook showing the correct entries. It will show a person's home phone but not their cell phone. Or the cell but not the home. It will not show both. Or it won't show everyone that's in my phone's phonebook. I don't know why.
I did have a problem entering destinations in the Nav system in the begining. I'd start entering an address by typing a number or two and then the numbers grayed out and it wouldn't let me enter the rest of them. The same with the street name, it would let me enter 2 or 3 letters and then would gray out the rest of the letters I needed. But since then I have been able to enter complete info, so again I don't know why that happened.

Why did you want to know?
