  1. With all the huff and puff about Model S this and that, it seems missed that a Tesla EV range is affected by the same factors that hit the Fusion range. Physics is physics. Predicted range in a Tesla depends [http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/model-s-efficiency-and-range] on Constant Speed, Flat Ground, No Wind, Climate Control Off, Windows up, Sunroof closed, Tires inflated, No Cargo, New battery pack, etc. Even then there is a wide variation in range depending on speed. Factor in cold weather and range is further limited. Ford may be building compliance cars and Tesla isn't building hybrids with extended range. The two cars are not competitors. You need no more evidence for that than the 2.5x price difference.
  2. I have wrong image for my fusion energi 2017. Correct color though. That might be a coincidence. Is yours white like mine?
  3. We just purchased at the end of October and last week received a postcard from our dealer titled RECALL NOTICE that included the code 16E03. I was told it involve reprogramming the throttlebody software. Does anyone have any more information?
  4. Finishing our third week in possession of a 2017 FFE. Have had nothing but trouble with MFM since the start. Adding a second driver was not intuitive at all. I would choose to ADD USER, enter their e-mail address, then get a message with a link to 'confirm' the addition, however the link would drop me at the sign in page for MFM, even though I was already within the website. After re-entering the website, looking under MY ACCOUNT and selecting VEHICLE AND DRIVER MANAGEMENT the page displays two columns, VEHICLES and DRIVERS & PRIVILEGES. One would think a driver needing confirmation would be listed under drivers with a tick box to confirm. It is found under Vehicles/Vehicle Name/*previously entered name* and selecting the tick box to Edit the Vehicle name. As odd as that is, no one on the FORD help phone line, MFM section, seems to have ever had anyone ask how to add a second driver. It seemed like such a novel idea and they had no idea how to walk through the process. They escalated my inquiry and opened a case number for the issue on OCT 31, which of course meant no one called me back until NOV 7. Their answer take it into my dealer to have the firmware upgraded in the car. I had sorted out the additional driver issue on my own by then, but was having other MFM issues along the way. Go times won't sync, can't lock/unlock car, System health and tire pressure info stopped showing up on phone, but is on the website. Can't update value charge choices from website, will not synch. Etc. So I took the car in and the service writer was not interested in the case number. Took my vague description of my problems and after having it for a day have determined that it needs a SOP module? I thought he said they were going to swap the modem, but the follow up email said SOP module. Any idea what that is?
  5. With two drivers each using the app on their phone or by PC browser, are there any known issues with control of car, e.g., remote locking/unlocking, setting parameters of a charge, or starting charge? Could I set up a charge time and my wife update my instructions at a later time? Are text/email updates recipients determined by last driver in car or the user account that requested the action? Anyone aware of issues of compatibility with Apple computers [as distinct from iPhone], i.e., support for Safari vs Chrome? Thanks in advance
  6. I am contemplating purchasing a 2017 FFEP and am interested to learn about multiple drivers of the car each accessing information and control over the car through MYFORD MOBILE App. I have been given conflicting information regarding the process employed. Any comments would be helpful. Apologies for posting similar question in the general information area.
  7. This was in EVnow mode? or Battery and engine?
