I'm sure Zwick is pissed he didn't get to post this.
Good for Ford, proud to say I own an Edge. It wasn't considered I see.

Ford builds a nice car. They didn't take any bail-out money, and now they are turning a profit again. I guess the lesson here is, build something that has good resale value, that doesn't need to be repaired every 10 miles, that is the product of good marketing strategies and is popular with American car buyers and you will have a winner every time. We have owned several Ford products and every one of them has been attractive, dependable, inexpensive to operate, and always maintained very well by local dealers. Their warranties are always honored as well. There is no secret to this.

The 2010 Fusion is a nice looking car, and I'm not a Ford guy at all.

I have a 2009 Focus for the gas mileage, and I love it with SYNC...Fusion might be my wife's next car whenever her Freestar minivan goes under (it will be a few years for sure).
If you hadn't noticed, we are all Ford. My car before this one was a 2000 Focus, I had it for 8 years. Before that it was a Ranger.
My wife's previous car was a Taurus...
Thanks g'pa, those employee discounts are NICE.
