Balderdash. Every other post I make on here is how phenomenal the Fusion is. How does it suck? It does everything pretty darn well, and has the good looks of an Aston Martin. The interior could look nicer, but then the car could also cost more.

I'm really surprised they are killing the fusion though, I would have thought that one would stick around for sure.
How the heck are you getting 43 MPG? I've got a 2017 and as you can see, I'm averaging about 29 MPG. I don't drive over 65 MPH, and employ all of the normal best practices for conserving fuel while not disrupting traffic flows.

I'm with you on the Fusion. Best vehicle they have by a mile.
