Nice car. Great gas mileage, solid frame, but somewhat cheap interior. But it drives well.

My friends wife has one...it's a pretty nice car aside from the fact that it's a ford.

Bought a Fusion Hybrid last fall. Absolutely love the car. EPA City or Highway is 48 MPG and I get right around 44-45. Never had a car that close to the estimate.

Extremely comfortable for 4 people and is a very smooth ride. I made sure to get every feature I wanted and haven't regretted my purchase once yet.

What features did you get on it?

You can basically get the thing fully loaded for about 30k. pretty good deal if you ask me.

Dad has one as a company car. Rode in it, very very awesome vehicle. Will probably be my next vehicle.

Just bought one. 30 mpg. Rides like a dream. Great features for hands free.

That's right around what I paid. Got the backup camera, leather seats, blind spot alerting, sunroof, and navigation.

Mine was used with 5,000 miles. Snagged it for 20,500. SE package.

Very sporty. Was looking at it and the Altima. So many damn Altimas on the road, and the fusion feels so much more sporty. Great car.

You should also consider the 2014 Mazda 6.

That's why I'm looking at it. The hood and grill give it a very sporty look.

Checked out the Mazda 6 as well. It's pretty nice but not something I could picture myself driving for 4+ years.

I test drove one awhile back to see what they were all about and it was a cool car and all but it wasn't for me. I decided to get something much faster. If you want an entry level sedan that is pretty inexpensive they would be a great choice.

It's not a bad little car. The main thing I disliked was the dash setup and the infotainment system. Not very intuitive.

It's what I'm considering as my next car as well. Had one a couple months back as a renter and loved it.

I've always had a truck and would really like the new 2015 F-150 when it comes out. Love having a truck for when you need to get pick up crawfish, mulch, new furniture, moving, etc. Always seems to come in handy.

But its hard to pass up a fully loaded car like the Fusion for $30,000 when a comparably loaded truck is gonna be $45,000.

I agree but like you said its tough to compare a truck and a sedan.
