  1. My 2015 Titanium Energi with 20,000 miles sold for $17,500 a few months back.
  2. I finally blacked out the chrom on the back to match the grille and fog lamp surrounds I did a few months back.
  3. I parked next to a stock height 2017 Energi today and took photos to show the comparison of stock vs. H&R's. Front Rear
  4. I was out and about yesterday and decided to give this free charging station a try... It's massive!
  5. My 2015 had a wrench light and the 12V battery died on 2 occasions. The dealer checked and cleared the codes and couldn't duplicate the problem. I got it back and it was good for one day, then it happened again the next day. I called the dealership back and they asked where I was charging and suggested it may be the charging station causing the issue. I cleared the codes with a handheld tuner and charged at work on 1 of 2 chargers. No issues. The next day, I tried the other charger and the issue came back. I checked the codes and they were the same as before. Ends up it was a bad charging cord causing the issue. They replaced the plug when I showed proof of the issue it caused and I never had another problem again.
  6. It's not working correctly lately. I have 1,300 miles on this tank and only 400 have registered.
  7. Something is weird with MFM lately.. I got a 5k and 10k achievement and mine has 2,200 miles. It was pretty accurate with my last car but something is definitely off. It also says I have 400 miles on this tank on gas sipper when I really have 1,300.
  8. My 2015 Energi Titanium stickered for over $40,000. I could have purchased it at the end of the 2 year lease with 20,000 miles for $24,000. I declined and leased a 2017. The 2015 sold for $17,350.
  9. The ride quality seems very close to stock, but it does corner/handle better. I do it solely for looks, I'm not a fan of a lot of wheel well gap and have lowered just about every car I've ever owned including Corvettes. I used the H&R AWD springs. I lowered my last Energi as well and after 2 years and 20,000 miles I didn't have any issues. Due to the added weight, they get slightly lower than a normal gas engine Fusion.
  10. Welcome! Congrats on the purchase. I never thought I'd own a HEV, but just leased my second Fusion Energi in January.
  11. It's plastidip, which is like paint but able to be removed if I decide I don't like it or if I have to remove it when I turn he lease in. I taped/masked around them and covered the radiator and sprayed it on. I got it from the paint isle at Home Depot.
  12. Here are a few better photos of my 2017 after blacking out the grille and fog lamp surrounds. It had just finished raining, but the beauty of silver is the ability to hide the dirtiness. Also has door emblems removed, lowering springs, and tint (5% all but windshield, 35% windshield).
  13. Not on this one. My 2015 had 17" wheels and it always scraped the black plastic valence underneath, but that's no big deal. No issues with this one scraping.
  14. Looks good! I removed my door emblems. It's also lowered and tinted.
  15. The chrome window trim doesn't bother me, but I had to get rid of the chrome in the front. Next up is the strip between the taillights
  16. I used plastidip, so it can be removed if I decide I don't like it or if I have to remove it when I turn in the lease. I also used it on my 2014 which my mom owns now and it looks great after 3 years with no chips.
  17. I'm not a fan of the chrome on the grille or fog light surrounds so I finally got around to blacking them out today. Before: After:
  18. I'd only lease an Energi. I don't keep cars more than a few years even when I buy and if I'd purchased the 2015 new, I'd have lost a ton of money. I leased a 2017 and got $7,000 in incentives and a payment of $240/month.
  19. I agree, I see a ton of 2017's. It probably because they lease so well. For someone not looking to ever plug it in, it still gets great mileage and the price is less than a gas Fusion. I couldn't imagine buying though.. My 2015 Titanium lease turn in had 20,300 miles and sold for $17,350. For a $40,000+ car, that's horrible re-sale.
