And the driver side front door doesn't close all the way, so it's super loud once you get on the highway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-800894 Wed, 22 May 2013 12:58:36 +0000 avivoca 800894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Versa. I love it, but I do wish there were arm rests on the front seats. We rented an Explorer last year and I LOVED the fact that I could stretch my legs out on the dashboard (it was after an 18 mile race; man were my legs SORE). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-800795 Wed, 22 May 2013 12:28:33 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 800795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: no. Fusions and Focuses are the only two car choices I get now and I am not elligible for another for a couple years. I really miss my Ford 500. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-799508 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:25:27 +0000 HLK208 799508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww possible to upgrade soon? I had a new Ford sedan last year and HATED it! I traded it in, took a loss and DH got his dream truck (which is cool and fun but I wish I got a mom car instead). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-799507 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:24:00 +0000 JamieLee 799507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like how the back doors of my Jeep Liberty are cut over the wheel well - they make getting into and out of the backseat difficult. That's about all I don't like though. My specific car doesn't have a lot of the options I want, like heated or power seats or the buttons to change the radio stations on the steering wheel, but that's because I couldn't afford the better model! </p> <p>On a side note, I don't really like anything about DH's Dodge Ram 2500 truck. It's hard to get into because its so high up, the seats are uncomfortable, and its gigantic. I seriously feel like I'm driving a school bus and parking...forget about it. I will park a mile away if I have to just so I can find a spot with no other cars around. But luckily I don't have to drive it that often. It's also a really rough ride which sometimes makes me carsick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-799496 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:12:17 +0000 Mrs. Pen 799496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: aww I'm sorry you dislike it! I have an '08 fusion and I love it! I do think the hooks are small.. But I can live with that.</p> <p>I actually don't think it's that long. My sister drives an intrepid and THAT is a long car! Super hard to park because of that!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fusion-smusion-it-sucks#post-799402 Tue, 21 May 2013 21:25:13 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 799402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anyone else have things about their car they dislike? I am trying to look at the positives, but I keep dwelling on the Fusion's negatives. </p> <p>Initially it was just the manual seats and I can't even prop up my seat higher. </p> <p>Then it was the massive trunk I keep bumping my massive head on. </p> <p>Then it's the compact, but sleek body. It's a small car yet its length makes it a bit difficult for me to judge parking spaces and curbs. (Admittedly this is not the car's fault, lol)</p> <p>And today I spent several minutes trying to hang my dry cleaning in the back seat. The hooks are so small and so close to the oh shizz handle bars.</p> <p>Just a bit feed up :-( Off to bed to dream about awesome cars. </p>
