According to Inside EVs, the 2014 Fusion Energi is now eligible for up to $3,000 in incentives. http://insideevs.com/ford-has-rebates-up-to-5000-on-c-max-energi-and-fusion-energi-to-compete-with-new-volt-pricing/

I've been watching that Order Status forum for 2014 Fusion Energi posts, but there haven't been any yet. Unfortunately, I don't really have enough to say to meaningfully contribute with the required 15 good posts.

Does an order number mean much (i.e, will it allow you to track progress in a meaningful way)? We've had an order number since June 7, but every update has been "Unscheduled Clean" since then. I'm hoping that now some dealer ordered 2014 Energi Titaniums are appearing in dealers' inventories, some customer ordered Energi Titaniums may be scheduled and receive actual VINs.

The seatbelts in the backseat inflate in the event of a crash distributing some of the force - similar in principle to an airbag.

We also test drove the Model S prior to ordering a 2014 Energi Ti on June 7. The Tesla is an amazing car, but it's nearly twice as expensive, and there are some advantages to a Fusion. The only 2014-specific option we chose were the rear inflatable seatbelts, so I'm hoping our order will be scheduled relatively soon.

When you say all options, are you including the heated & cooled seats? I wanted the cooled seats, but I was concerned that it would delay my order indefinitely. 8-12 weeks wouldn't be too bad.

Is any information available on pricing yet? Will there be any change to the base price for the 2014 Energi SE and Titanium? I've seen some posts on the price of options, but nothing on the car itself.
