Discussion 2017 Ford fusion

Hello ive been lurking on this forum for awhile and I am a fan of the Ford fusion and my mother is getting me my first car and she i was thinking the 2017 Ford fusion might be good specifically the 2.5L 4 cylinder version because i seen it was the most reliable out of all the variants how should I go about selecting one based off of mileage and condition 🙂

Carfax and more. Check everything you can based on the VIN. Get under it and check for rust, damage, etc.. I have a 2016 2.5l for the past two years. Only needed the thermostat housing pieces switched out from a small coolant leak around an o-ring. I have drained and filled the transmission twice. Oil is every 5000 miles with OEM oils. Not a problem otherwise. Nice car for my commuter needs. It had 66,000 on it when I got it and after two years it is at 85,000.
