Hello all! I just bought a used 2017 Cmax energi titanium and am so glad to find this forum. I live in the Bay Area About 10 miles from San Francisco.
I’ll look forward to diving into this forum and welcome any direct links to other useful forums and particular favorite posts about driving efficiently and charging strategies.
I rent ny home which is a back unit far away from the street so I don’t have direct access to charge at home. I May ask a neighbor if I can park by them and run an extension cord to plug in at night. And I will be getting strategic in ny errands and recreation so to tie in to places where I can charge publicly.
I am seeking to drive as efficiently as possible - a friend showed me his drive log - he is getting ok average 90+ miles to the gallon and sometimes more!
Two other sticking points before I can let go and fall in love with my car -
it doesn’t have the power lift gate which I regret sacrificing with this vehicle and just last night noticed it doesn’t have the Navigation system.
Wondering if that is worth the effort to put in after market? I can use google maps from my phone but wonder how more beneficial that will be mot having to be on wifi to use it.
That’s all for now. My sparkly deep blue Energi and I wish you a wonderful day!
