Default ****in marketing assholes!!

i fvXkin hate them!!..i understand they're doing their job but shoving ad's and marketing tactic in our face's...is just downright annoying..

i visit website's and the stupid ads just pop's right up without even my consent and drains' slow's my compouter down and crashe's my browser cause of the ****ing ram robbing flash program!!

also motortrend.com automatically launche's a video without my notice and this stupid ***** about driving fusion just won't shut up...

if we want to watch a video..we gotta watch an annoying ad first...

**** Em ALL!!!

not that I am siding with them but with this post, you are proving the ads work and that is the goal they are after. If you buy more, prices go down. Calm down, take a breath and ignore them if you dont want anything to do with the product. Do you have a job in retail perchance?

what bother's me is tha their stupifd ford fusion challenge comapre's themselve's aginst the japanese front wheel drive car's like the damn accord and the bread and butter suburban camry

Idiots wake up!!..of course an all wheel drive car will handle better than the front wheel drive cars...
and you actually take that advantage to make claim to trump the japanese cars.

lame *** ford.

the fusion is nothing more than a japanish car in disguise..

it has the chassis' of a mazda 6,
a japanese built aisin transmissions..

all american my ***!!

other than the awd model, the 2wd fusion is no better than it's domestic rivals.

it's got lagging fit and finish, boring black interior, it's durate v6 stil lag's behind the jap's and even some of the korean cars.

it's too busy trying to look european,
sure the car looks okay, a complete wedge with blingly tailights.

Print media is scrambling to make money when the internet is replacing the need for it. Just about everything you read in one of those mags is already old news on sites like autoblog. In order to keep making money with declining subsciptions they got the bright idea to do these integirity comprimising "editor for a day" purchased fake reviews.

set your browser to block popups unless youre using explorer which is ****. i use firefox and for sites that use alot of flash i turn off the flash capabilities for that site through my browser and never have to see them anymore. plus firefox is more relieable, won't crash your whole computer, and is much much faster.

i think those people were paid to monologue about the fusion..

everyday comsumers...enthusiats??Bahh!!

what's funny is that the fords 4-banger fusion hit's 60- in 8's
the awd V6 fusin hit's 60 in about the same time..221 hp is okay but the weight of the awd hurts it.

and they'll get blown away by the camry, accrod, sonata, & altima's V6's which are more powerful and more refined.
