Used 2009 Ford Fusion Consumer Reviews
Extended Review for 2009 Ford Fusion SE
I was resistant to get into this car because I thought it was low end vehicle but I was pleasantly surpised by its handling and styling. The car gives cues of a Lexus sedan, especially the front. Mine is equipped with Sport wheels and low profile tires and makes a tremendous difference in handling. 5 speed trans is good once it gets going in the higher ranges. Gas economy is great on pure highway; I got up to 42 miles p/gallon and it's not a hybrid. My usual commute is 60% highway and 40% local,traveling 100 miles roundtrip. I'm averaging 27-29 miles per gallon. Not bad. Trip commuter works well and the SYNC system is a real tribute. I don't like the cartridge filter design; too messy.
Best Bang for you Buck!
I was and still am a little skeptical about buying a Ford but for the price you cannot beat its features. I got the Blue Suede Package and it's really sharp looking. I wish the car had a little more power but nothing an intake and exhaust cannot fix. Overall I love it so far. It's slick and the sports tuned suspension is slick when handling corners.
Fusion: I love it!
This car rocks!Ford has a real winner on its hands. Love the performance,a really nice,comfotrable and reliable ride.
Bought an American Car!
After 32 years I thought it was time to try another American car. I've been driving Toyota, Honda, and Lexus all these years. Since Ford's quality has improved significantly over the past few years, I thought I would take a serious look and drive one. Well, I was impressed and bought the SEL pretty well loaded including 18 inch wheels. The V6 and 6-speed auto are very smooth and I'm averaging 22 MPG after six weeks of driving half city, half freeway. The sport tuned suspension makes handling very acceptable and the car has a very solid feel. In summary, this is a very nice car and a great value. It also feels good to drive a car made by an American company.
Highly Recommended!
After looking at Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, & Chevy alternatives I chose the Fusion. I've been driving the car for nearly a month. No regrets so far whatsoever. This car is fun to drive! My commute is 45 minutes each way so I've got to know the car pretty well. With the V6 I regularly get 28 mpg, and with the sync system and sirius radio I'm entertained like I've never been.
