    It seems this converted Fusion is the first hybrid to be pursuit rated for police work.

    This makes sense of the recent increase in Fusion hybrid sales. It is as if Ford passed the word,"It is just a car, sell it!"

    This also parallels what the Hyundai rep was saying in the Autoline After Hours interview. These are just cars so sell them as such and get over the "green" or "clean" or any other faux images. In effect, compete and sell it as a car.

    Now Toyota & @Prius Team needs to get the message. Remove the "Hybrid" vehicle menu and place the items where they belong - car or truck or SUV, etc.
