Woo I could be out of here!

Probably a nice car but some people need the hatch utility

 

Yup. Coming from a Civic hybrid, it was the Prius drive system that attracted me, but I'm also hooked on the hatch capacity now.

 

My neighbor 2 houses down has a Fushion Energi Titanium as well. I had considered one, but it wouldn't suit my needs because the trunk is too small. Congrats on the new car!

 

What is the latest Ford disclosure ?

45, 40 or 35 mpg ?

 

5mpg higher than after the FTC/EPA questions the numbers again.

 

So, Energi's cost to drive 25 miles is basically the same as a regular Prius, more than PIP?

Compare Side-by-Side

 

About 12% less if I am reading the table correctly.
Did you notice that the Prius fueling is cheaper than the PiP ?

 

what???

 

Oops, I'm wrong.

The PiP is $250 cheaper over five years.
That be 13.7 cents a day

 

phew, i thought i was going to have to trade in.

 

I have no problem with somebody, anybody, being happy with the vehicle they own, even if it is going from a Prius to some other vehicle.

But just as an exercise in communication I'd say just remember your audience. This is "Prius Chat" which should suggest to you that it has a majority of Prius enthusiasts. So when you say something like....

You have to expect a degree of defensive reply. Even if that is how you feel, perhaps that's a comment best left unsaid? Nobody likes their vehicle compared to a golf cart.

Personally? If you're happy, I'm happy. At least you went from Prius to another "Alternative" choice. Glad to hear you think The Ford product is a great product. I would be interested in hearing about your feelings/experience with ownership long term.

 

I'm switching to a Fusion Energi also, soon, very soon.......

Tonny, what's the Fusion Forum you are talking about?......................

 

What mpg does the energie get when not charged up? Comparable to the pip?

 

I tough it was an exclusive Fusion Energi sect with a weird salute......
