ebduda Posted November 17, 2015 at 02:46 AM Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 at 02:46 AM Talked to my tax accountant the other day and she said to reduce my tax liability I should look at buying one of these cars. She just bought one. I live in colorado and will get a 2600 state credit to go along with the 4000 fed credit. Throw in the rebates and this was a no brainer. Love the blue and how quiet this vehicle is. I traded in a 2005 f-150 super crew (was a great truck) that got 13 mpg for this gas sipper. Lookded at the Cmax and Pries but they were just compact cars. The Focus is just a beautiful car for an electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_h Posted November 17, 2015 at 12:45 PM Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 at 12:45 PM So are you thinking of a 'Fusion' Energi, or a Focus 'Electric'? Hybridbear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebduda Posted November 18, 2015 at 08:59 PM Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 at 08:59 PM Yep it's a Fusion. Sorry Ford with all the F'd cars I can't keep them straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMDataFusion Posted November 23, 2015 at 02:49 AM Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 at 02:49 AM Just completed my first month with my 2016 Fusion Energi Titanium. I can see how the gas in the tank can get 'old'! Just setup the GO Times and the Fusion is warmed up for these first cold, snowy days. These was one of the things that would drop my mileage in my 2011 Fusion Hybrid. My old Fusion would hardly start to get off gasoline during the winter because my trips were too short. Doesn't happen with the Energi. Love the EV Drive system changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphy Posted November 23, 2015 at 11:02 AM Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 at 11:02 AM The Energi will force burn the gasoline in the tank if it gets to 18 months. It's a sealed system so gasoline will last a lot longer than in a normal car. That said, if you expect it to go that long, because of no trips that will have to use gasoline, StaBil or equivalent gasoline preservative should be added to the tank.

lonzo71 Posted November 24, 2015 at 04:55 PM Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 at 04:55 PM If you were to buy gas, how much would it take for the system to think its good again? Just thinking with the prices coming down under two, what is cheaper, gas or the preservatives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggy314 Posted December 3, 2015 at 06:51 PM Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 at 06:51 PM Best I've done so far is 4800 miles and around 4 months on one tank, summer only, winter I sadly barely get 2000... 1st world problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
