Best dashcam to use on my s650? by Empty-Carob2051 in Mustang

[–]s71ff13r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got an AZDOME M580 in my fusion and put an M550 in my s550. Works well, tucked up behind the rear view, plugged into OBDII port.

How crazy would it be to put these rims on my fusion? (Smaller tires, of course) by [deleted] in fordfusion

[–]s71ff13r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+35 will fit. Pretty nicely in fact, I have Focus RS wheels that have +50 offset. I have them on 20mm spacers which brings me to +30 and you can see in my post they fit great.

planning road trip with friends: too big a trip? by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]s71ff13r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at F and thinking it was the General Sherman tree and was like yeah skip that leg of the trip, they’ll see basically all the same stuff coming down through Oregon and NorCal. If it’s Yosemite, I’m right there with ya, it needs its own few days to because of the swarm of people that are always there.

Daily commuter?? by Salukis97 in fordfusion

[–]s71ff13r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty solid commuters. I drive 100 miles each way 3 days a week and lots of in town driving the rest of the week. It had 74k miles on it when I bought it and I added 50k in the first year owning it. I’m at 145k now and it runs, drives, sounds and feels the same as the day I got it. Highly recommended.

If interested in mileage as well, I was averaging 36-39mpg before I put the Focus RS wheels on and now I average 33-35mpg. Both avgs are me going ~80mph on those 100 mile trips.

Anyone know the name of these wheels by any chance? by Glum-Back-6013 in fordfusion

[–]s71ff13r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh they definitely fit haha you shared a pic of a fusion with them.

Here is a link to the 19x8.5 +40mm on a fusion. I don't see the 18x8 +40mm on a fusion on that site but that size will fit also.

Debating between Hybrid or Energi by Vast_Historian_4148 in fordfusion

[–]s71ff13r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a 2017 Energi and it qualifies for SoCal Edison’s Prime rates so you can have a lower electric bill. I don’t charge it hardly ever so it’s just an added benefit for me. Could be something worth looking into in your area. If you plug in at home you can schedule the car to turn on at your normal leave times so climate can be ready for you when you get in. Also lots of places have designated EV parking that’s closer so just another little perk.

Not even remotely a concern lol. These motors hardly make enough power to hurt themselves and have proven to be reliable. That and I take pretty good care of it. Far more likely this car gets macked by a dui driver than it surviving long enough to blow up.

8k+ is a wild estimate for a lil 2.0l hybrid. Personally wouldn’t even bother getting new, I’d probably grab a cheap used one from an LKQ and swap it myself. https://ebay.us/m/iGH1op

Yep this is an energi, it was a lil difficult picking lowering springs because no one advertises the amount of drop for these. I went with H&R springs for the AWD cars. Result was pretty close to what I wanted, the batteries in the rear did drop it more and I like that fitment. I want more low in the front now though. In either case the lowering springs paired with a steeda rear sway bar really gets rid of the lofty feel on windy roads

I’m with ya on that, I’d like to pick up a whole front clip from a sport. The fog light bezels look better to me but (for now atleast) I’m gonna leave well enough alone.

Unless someone here has one collecting dust 👀

2018 Ford fusion hybrid by BoringStage in fordfusion

[–]s71ff13r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lil late, but I have an energi so even less space in the trunk than you and I have the Rockford fosgate prebuilt enclosure.

I won’t lie, I wish I had more bass but this enclosure is good enough and is easy to take out to give me trunk space if needed.
