The Ford Fusion has made the “What’s Hot” list and not just because I personally drive one but for many reasons I will explain to you. First being that it’s a good looking Ford car. Ford has struggled in past years producing a sexy car besides the mustang. So this car finally can quiet down all the people who say any vehicle with a blue oval on it should belong to someone over the age of 70. Second and equally important reason is the gas mileage the Ford Fusion gets. I don’t know what’s more appealing these days than a vehicle that doesn’t break the bank when you bring it to the pump. The 2011 Ford Fusion (gas engine) can get up to 33mpg and looks damn good doing so which is not an easy task for vehicles as of late. Thirdly (and my personal favorite reason) is the Driver’s Vision Package which is available for the SEL, Sport, & Hybrid models. This package includes a few features that have made me a better driver or at least has led me to believe I am a better driver. The best feature is the rear camera that comes on automatically when the car is put into reverse. I still turn around and check if I’m about to take out another car in the parking lot but really this cameras large view is as close as you’re going to come to having eyes in the back of your head. This package also comes with the BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) feature which is also fabulous. There are small lights in the corners of both the side mirrors and will actually light up if someone is in your blind spot on that side of the vehicle. Once again a feature that gives you an extra set of eyes that are welcome to help. Well that wraps up why I have put the Ford Fusion on the “what’s hot” list for this month now onto the what’s not.. High gas prices have made the “What’s Not” list. Why? Because filling up your gas guzzler of a vehicle puts a damper on your day or maybe even your week! I know a lot of you have thought about trading in your SUV or Cross-over vehicle for something smaller but just can’t bear the thought of downsizing. Well luckily for you ford is here to give you some options. The ALL NEW 2013 Ford Escape has an option 1.6L EcoBoost engine that delivers best-in-class automatic highway fuel economy of 33 mpg. The improved fuel economy is just one of the many new and exciting features of the 2013 Ford Escape. The all new sleek look with z shaped body lines and the large lower trapezoidal grille are eye catching designs you have not seen on a Ford vehicle yet. Ok, back to the real topic of keeping the money in your wallet as opposed to in a gas tank. For all of you F series lovers, we might have the solution to keep you in your truck! The 2012 Ford F-150 comes with an optional EcoBoost engine that will definitely help the ever growing gas price issues. The 2012 F-150 with an EcoBoost engine has an estimated mpg of 16/city and 22/highway. I know what you’re thinking to yourself, how can an engine of that size give the truck any towing capability or any of the other things I need to use my truck for. Well this truck has a towing capability of 11,300 pounds which is best in class so that should answer any of your questions or doubts right there. Bottom line is that this truck will give you power of a V8 engine with fuel efficiency of a V6. I know that is music to all truck lovers’ ears.
