By Chris Weiss
Ford Motor Company has announced that the Ford Fusion has broken into the top 10 best-selling cars in the U.S. The Fusion has also taken the number 1 spot for domestics. The hybrid version of the popular mid-size sedan has accounted for 20 percent of the 151,137 units sold in 2009, helping to push sales past the previous yearly Fusion record of 149,552 set in 2007. The record-breaking numbers are up 15 percent from sales last year. Ford has credited a variety of factors including the Fusion’s efficiency, available technologies and options as driving the high numbers. As far as efficiency, the Fusion Hybrid boasts estimates as high as 41 mpg. [via egmCarTech]

Ford did something right! No more Pintos from Ford? Have they learned their lesson or will they line up the faithful and fvck them up the ass again just where it pays off the highest? I still don't trust the Yankee Doodle Capitalists, and after buying a 1972 Pinto , perhaps I never will – this year we buy Honda, and Toyota in memory of being a "Ford Family" from 1918 to 1972, the year we bought the rusty time bomb that took our lives to danger's edge for share-holders ROI! Thanks Ford, but no Thanks! The rip-off Pinto you made a few fast bucks on cost you 6 VW's. 1 Volvo, 3 Honda's, 2 Toyota's in sales and we are no longer faithful Ford family at all! Hyundai's look good and that second 'get-about' this next purchase just may come from Korea, but not the untrustable rip-off artists at Ford! No we never forget, Yes my asshole still smarts! No we will not come back to the Ford fold. Yes we are bitter! Bitter as Hell! You filthy bastards near killed me and my family and I do not trust you anymore! Yankee Doodle you are a Shyster, and a Schmuck! Eat Shit and die!
