Just a heads up. Needed to replace the battery in our Fusion. Went dead after having the nav screen on, even though audio was off, while my wife set on a conference call. Therefore thought it would be a good idea to replace.
I took a look around, seen where one guy upgraded to a larger battery with some small modifications to the battery tray. I wanted to keep the same stock size battery but look for something slightly better. Ford sells a 590cc (stock is 500cc) battery that is 100% the same size as the stocker. BXT-96R-590. Worth the extra $20 to get a longer warranty and larger size of the Motorcraft Max Tough series. For what it's worth, there is also a Max Tough for the same price with only 500cc as well so it's a no brainer.
