paulbuck Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hi Everyone...I took delivery of my '10 Fusion Hybrid last week, the dark metallic green ( I thought it was black when I first saw it!). I've owned Hondas and Toyotas for the past 25 years; replaced my '01 Accord after looking at Subaru Legacy, Camry, Accord, Fusion. I would normally stick with Honda, but the new Accords are so stodgy looking and a bit too big (they are now classified as 'large' size). Love the size of the Hybrid, the looks also. The state sales tax relief and the federal tax credit for next year turned me to the Hybrid over the regular Fusion, plus the gadgets and 40 mpg. Hoping the switch to Ford will be rewarding. Looking forward to enjoying the Forum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbuck Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thanks to all for your warm welcomes! As soon as this crappy New England weather settles down (or gets out!) I will take pics and post them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrymal Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thanks to all for your warm welcomes! As soon as this crappy New England weather settles down (or gets out!) I will take pics and post them. Not just New England. Been snowing all day here in East Texas, but this evening, it finally decided to stick to the ground. Some early morning shots and late evening shots in the photo below. A low-rez, quick shot screen capture. Now it begins, just started up today. Nothing like what y'all have but it is still a mess: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJE Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I love to keep my car clean. That's why I moved to SW Texas. But, after 50 years up north, I learned to appreciate snow and now miss it. Except when it gets that filthy, stinkin,' dirty crap all over my car! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to enjoying the Forum. Congratulations. I too left Honda (after 35 years) for an SEL V6 AWD back in September. So far I have no regrets. You're right about the new Accord. It looks like my grandfather should be driving it. I still like Hondas, and still have my 94 Accord wagon (240,000 miles), but they blew it bigtime on the new Accord and that ugly new Crosstour. Good luck with your Fusion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
