    I remember when you could tell who made what car just by looking at it. Now you have to go find the badge.

    I gotta hand it to Ford for building a beautiful sedan such as the Fusion. It proves that an American car doesn't have to look like

    (that still looks cool as shit to me though... is that normal?!?!)

    And when it comes to the Hybrid version it doesn't assimilate the trendy shape, or feel the need to paste "LOOK AT ME, I'M A HYBRID" along its flanks


    It's just a pleasant piece of American automotive talent.

    @POLAЯ WILL COVEЯ THE TOЯONTO AUTO SHOW! for a small fee.: I agree on both accounts! The Fusion looks excellent, and I also love that LTD station wagon or whatever model it is.


    Those big wagons always remind of "Adventures in Babysitting".

    @thunderhorse: Wood paneling and Elizabeth Shue...that's just a great combination.


    By the way, the only thing better than a wood paneled station wagon is a wagon with paneling AND a vinyl top! '73 Country Squire FTW!

    Got stuck in traffic yesterday behind a Toyota Corolla.


    He was doing at least 25mph less than he should have been.


    I went easy on him, he was probably hypermiling.


    Or, there's the outside chance he was an inconsiderate bastard.

    @FuzzyPlushroom: Well, to be fair, I don't think I've ever seen a Corolla doing above the speed limit.


    But, yes. The moment somebody who might just at heart be an inconsiderate bastard, starts hypermiling, it underscores his bastardness and highlights it in italics.

    @Rust-MyEnemy 20v Turbo: My friend who showed me that you can drive fast and not be reckless was a Corolla driver. Although, he was from Boston.


    Also, when I hypermiled a little this summer, I was never the slowest car on the road. And I managed a 20% fuel efficiency increase. I have no idea what these slowpokes are doing.

    Maybe it's just the perspectuive of the shot, but the Prius looks taller and wider than the Fusion...


    The Fusion is still the best looking one of the bunch though.

    Even with the perspective, it's pretty clear how much larger the Prius is compared to the Insight.
