Bought this yesterday. It does have 27K and has the 2.5 engine. I purposely bought this over the Ecoboost, as I did not want the DI(very expensive fuel pump) and MPG loss with the turbo. Very clean and got a good price. The dealer put Valvoline 5-20 in the sump, with a MC FL910 filter, but I will drain it out soon and replace with M1 0-20AFE, with the MC FL910.

Also, congratulations on the new car!


Yes, all except the 2.7 do. The 2.7 takes the FL-2062.
 
You're gonna run Mobil 1 and a MC filter!? Shocker!

Congrats on the car, I'll be looking forward to reviews and comparisons between it and your older one.
 
It is like Deja Vu all over again. Let me see, Mobil 1 with 10k oil interval. Rinse and repeat.

I am Happy for you. Looks like Fusions have been good to you (and Mobil 1).

You can buy a 2017 in the middle of 2016. 27k in 1 year isn't crazy high miles
 
I hope your drivers seat ain't as painful as mine.
Ford seems to make seats these days for 110 pound teenage girls.
 
I have a 2011 fusion with a 2.5. Never been in for repairs in 88,000 miles and 6 1/2 years. Great vehicles!

Don't forget to change your cabin air filter. You should see them after only one year of about 13,500 miles. Much cheaper at rock Auto on line.

Will do. The 2007 Fusion(which I still have) has been a very reliable car.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe it's just you.

A friend has a 2010 Fusion(185K) with the 2.5, and it has performed well for him.
