Good ones!

[@user-bi4qy9ii8y]

I'm gonna get a black Ford fusion as well as my first car, very good choice in terms of reliability gl bro

I just bought a 2012 Ford Fusion SEL 3.0 V6, with 170k miles, that is in great condition, inside and out. I paid $3800 for it. It seems to be a very solid vehicle even with the high mileage. Literally everything still works on it. The only thing I could find wrong was a weird rubble noise during acceleration from take off, that goes away after I get going a little.

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

Do you know my Honda Accord makes that same little grumble sound from a dead start. I’m starting to think it’s the water pump. But I’m not 100% sure

[@Michiganmike313]

That 3.0 Duratec is a sweet little engine. Strong with pleanty of pull, refinement, and also not really that bad on fuel. Also reliable. This car was a good pick man. I have a huge soft spot for 10-12 Fusion, Milan, and Mkz

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

Car is a lil beast. Such an awesome platform

[@crazyjkz]

I think the earlier 3.0L Duratecs were a little weak in overall performance and refinement, although they were always reliable. Once Ford updated them with VVT (and also Borg-Warner VCT in the 2010-2012 models as shown in this video) they became smoother, quieter, more refined and with a nice boost in horsepower and torque. The 240hp version shown here was the best and last evolution of the 3.0L Duratec V6 when they were gradually phased out by the 3.5L Cyclone V6.

That 4th to 6th gear skip on that second WOT pull reminds me of my 2016 Ford F-250 work truck Very smart, even though it’s weird to me lol

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

These lil cars are overpowered in the v6 version

[@JBWDC3]

@@JoesGoldenGarage I need that lol getting very bored of my 4 cylinder. It’s underpowered.

I used to have a 2011 Mercury Milan in silver grey. My car had a little bit over 83,000 miles on it before I totaled it before hit a buck. It was a nice car to drive. When I got it and it had a little over 11,000 miles on it. To me it was a little bigger than Ford Focus. I was looking at Ford Fusions but, at that time all of them had over 35,000 miles on. The Milan was low in miles and it was dropped in 2012. Right now I drive 2015 Ford Escape.

[@joespittle1]

Looks like they've got about 240hp and 223 lb-ft

[@umersohail7106]

Hey joe maybe you should try more auction videos we go over cars and tell us how much you would pay for them.

[@foltoncalhoun6978]

Yes pleas do copart walk around Joey

[@kylechellino2579]

I like the v6 better than hybreds

[@joespittle1]

Wasn't expecting it to peg it all the way to redline lol

[@md2k8]

The 3.5 L V6 engine from Ford is unreliable due to a mechanical problem with the water pump.

[@lambolegend1679]

The 3.0 was better its that stupid design on the 3.5.

[@md2k8]

@@lambolegend1679 Agreed

[@joespittle1]

How was the auction??

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

Had to work And could not go

[@adamscott1731]

I had a question, how do you feel about the Ford Fusion 2012 SE with 160k miles, do you think it’ll hold up @joes

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

The best American car in my opinion we have a 2012 V6 with around 100,000 miles we would sell for probably around 5600 bucks

[@jimamccracken5783]

Bad use of foul language Guage shut it up please.😢

[@EnlightenedRogue]

Prefer the ‘12 V-6 Cherry!

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

I like it as well. So quick
