Got a new AWV

Well my truck was giving me more problems than I felt like dealing with, so I bit the bullet and traded it in.

Figured I'd share it with you.

2014 Fusion - 1.6 Ecoboost - 6 Speed Manual

Orange 94 · Jul 21, 2014

awesome stuff!

I didn't know you could get a manual! Thats great news!

Yeah 1.6L only, not sure if there are any differences in Canada though.

It should be the same, when I was looking for a new car I looked at the previous gens of fusion.
Could only get the manual with 4cyl and not the v6. Very frustrating.

I just assumed they sold the new ones with only having the crappy engines available in manual.
Nice to see they sell the ecoboost with manual.

I hate how manual is dying

Do away with the touch screen radio/HVAC BS, phones and all other electronic devices & I bet manuals come back in style.

Wow an ecoboost 6 speed, thats not a bad DD at all.

The auto's are just as good and better so manual is much less popular especially since MPG's are the same.

I honestly love my auto but since I don't shift all day at work anymore I have been getting the itch to do a swap or even buy another car because I miss rowing my own gears.

That's a pretty sweet Aston Martin.

Yeah and if you find one at a Ford dealership, the price goes way down.

Ya, I have the 6 speed 2.5L I4 2010 Fusion. Only can get the manual with an SE 4 cylinder. I assume your's is an SE as well? There are like a half dozen engine options, thats the smaller ecoboost of the two, correct?

Yeah thats right manual only comes with SE 1.6L ecoboost.
And they did away with manual completely for 2015 models.
