A blast from the past.⭐

Amazing smaller yet big car, I'm 6'3 plenty of legroom, telescoping steering wheel, Huge trunk very agile and with the V6 it's fun and quick basically it's a Mazda 6, research shows transmission issues were NOT a problem for the 2006 the stereo sound's great steering requires a little more effort I like it some may not mine's the SEL which I think should have came standard with ABS, rust has held off except for the rocker panel Ford was nice enough to send employee to my house to change out the airbags and I'm the 2nd owner. 107,500 miles,overall very happy.✌️

EXCELLENT LOCAL DRIVE CAR

I used the car driving locally ( < 5 miles) around neighborhood towns. I did use on highways, but truthfully, not that much. I would take my 2018 Jeep on any highway trips or anything over 25 miles one way . It’s a great little knock around town car..

Most Reliable Car I've Ever Owned

This car has always met all my needs. Great driver in all types of weather. You won't be disappointed with a Ford Fusion. Perfect for a new or younger driver.

Fusion changed my perception of Ford

Bought used. 6 Cylinder Duratec engine. Traded in 11 yrs old with 205k miles on it and no major repairs for a newer Fusion. Ford Fusions are terrific bargains for their reliability and generous options. Thinking of a Corolla/Camry/Civic/Accord? At least test drive a comparable Fusion.

2006 Fusion SEL bought in 2007 and still driving

We purchased this car in 2007 w/7,500 miles on it. My daughter now drives this car 1,300 miles each way to college and during the her academic year. It has low miles at about 117,000 and has been a good car for us. We will probably sell it in 2021 after she graduates college.
