Ford is one of the few if only of the Big 3 to offer MANUAL transmissions in nearly all of their cars. So you fail there. Then you fail yet again with the hypocrisy of the fact you drive a Ford product. But I suppose you didn't know Ford owned Mazda. Soft suspension? What? This isn't 1977 dumb ass.
But you should know that Americas distaste for shifting gears is high, so having manual available on most of there cars isn't going to get them much profit. The smart thing Ford does is make there sports cars like Mustang as cheap as possible by removing key features such as a modern suspension and cheap 5 speed gearboxes making the building costs go right down and selling them for much cheaper then there much more highly equipped rivals making there sales high.
Fusion comes with a six speed manual or six speed automatic. The manual is only available on the bargain-basement four cylinder S. The six speed automatics are standard on all other models, engines, and AWD equipped cars. In my opinion that is the smarter move. Say you are one of the few Americans who require a manual, you sure as fuck aren't going to be buying a GM or Toyota product. Ford offers an engine and transmission for, literally, everyone.
