[QUOTE="thomas91169, post: 13616273, member: 40530"] Dont be afraid. I bought my 2010 Fusion SE in 2011 with 65k on the clock. It was a fleet car and I have check-ins every 3,000mi intervals, from San Jose to Pennsylvania and back again. Being fleet maintained isnt that bad of a deal really, it means usually the cars are gone over pretty well. Techs will replace shit that doesnt need replacing just so they can get more hours on the clock. I now have 112k on the clock. My only issue thus far was a slight leak from a transmission seal that was fixed by simply tightening the bolts to proper spec as they had loosened for whatever reason. Shifts great, drives as good as new. I consistently get compliments when I take it into Ford or whatnot about its condition and the mileage. Most dont believe it. Theres a big difference between "rental" and "fleet maintained". Even rentals, unless they feel and drive like a pos, are maintained pretty damn good, better than most private parties. [/QUOTE]
