OK, let’s just get it out there: The 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid is the best gasoline-electric hybrid yet.
What makes it best is a top-drawer blend of an already very good midsize sedan with the industry’s smoothest, best-integrated gas-electric power system. It’s so well-done that you have to look to the $107,000 Lexus LS 600h hybrid [...]
It looks like they’re getting serious again. That’s what I thought when we were driving the new Ford F-150 on Interstate 94 outside of Detroit earlier this week.

Special Tax Break Available for New Vehicle Purchases this year. The IRS announced today that taxpayers who buy a new passenger vehicle this year may be entitled to deduct state and local sales and excise taxes paid on the purchase on their 2009 tax returns. “For those thinking about buying a new car this year, this deduction may give them a little more drive to make their purchase year,” said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman. “This deduction enables taxpayers to buy now and get cash back later... more
Fuel efficiency has become a marketing point for vehicles, but the campaigns and rising gas prices have not caused Mississippians to shift to smaller gas sippers, several dealers say. “Our Focus (and) Fusion vehicle sales haven’t been what we were hoping they would be,” said Cliff Mitchell, general manager of Watson Quality Ford in Jackson. The Focus and Fusion are compact and midsize offerings. About half the vehicles the dealership sold in September and October were large trucks... more

More of what you want! They’re increasing third quarter production by 10,000 vehicles — prioritizing the Ford Focus and Escape, which have been so popular through the Cash for Clunkers program.

The Senate approved providing another $2 billion for the “cash for clunkers” program on Thursday night, keeping it alive through the month of August. Senators voted 60 to 37 to continue the auto-purchase program, which quickly spent the previously allocated $1 billion. President Obama signed the legislation into law on Friday morning in the Oval Office, Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary, said, paving the way for the money to be immediately available.
