That's awesome!!!

Noooooo. Lol. How much was the home charger? The leaf was over $1000.00. By the time we paid for the car, home station, electrical wiring etc. we were pretty $$$. The cmax was well under that and I have no limit. Meaning I can use gas and there are plenty of gas stations. I live in a small town. We have one charger in town and it is at McDonald's. A fast food joint with a charger? Really gonna get a lot of charge?? The infrastructure for electric cars is much better in Texas. But. You have to pay for the electricity. So glad we found the cmax.

Guzzi, I started this venture looking at the Nissan leaf electric car. My dad got interested and the hunt was on. We skipped the Nissan because we wanted more range. Once the battery is depleted that's it. I loved that lil car. It was THE perfect fit, ride, feel, look etc. we looked into and test drive many other cars. Nothing spoke to me. Dad suggested I look into the cmax. He was looking at the Prius. We drive the Prius. It sucked for me. He was pushing but I wasn't budging. We both had to decide on a vehicle. Better deal if you buy 2! I found us a cmax to test and we both fell in love. Ordered them and now waiting. Thanks for your response. I win the bet! Dad thought after the 21 miles it reverted to just an ICE! I think he has to pay for my first fillup! Hahahaha

It's Marci GRAS for us but most places still work. Good for him to have the day off. Thanks for asking!!!!

Guzzi, I have a question for you about your hybrid. So it runs on battery the first 21 miles and then it switches to a hybrid like the hybrid cmax? Meaning using battery and ice?

Congrats. Glad you found us!

Do the back windows go down all the way?

Check out YouTube for videos on working the buttons. You can stop and start and rewatch. I love them.

Well, he is no FROG but ...

Get some good music. How fun would that be! Is this just for fun?

Yikes! Hurry up Ford. I want my baby! My Tahoe is quickly sucking the gas. I have an out of town trip next weekend. Not looking forward to that gas fillup.

Welcome Gina! How exciting. I ordered the sel and waiting on delivery. No more keys to dig for. Swing off the foot and the hatch opens! I cannot wait.

I do like Laurel.

Hope its minor and a quick fix.

Great idea! When my grandfather passed my cousin burned CDs with his music on it for everyone. Well the hurricane took mine. :(. I have asked him to pls burn me another one. I really need to get my computer running so I can do things like that. Hard to type long posts on the iPad. Blah. My dad has played the drums since... Teens? He was in my grandfathers band until he branched off in another band. I love to listen to him play the drums. Funny when your DAD can rock out! His band make records too but I don't think they are on iTunes.

Thanks. I keep reminding myself of that. I am a pretty patient person but even this is getting hard. The closer it is the harder it seems.

Maybe that's what's taking so longs for my car. Hmm. Maybe this is a good thing for me!

If it was raining that hard maybe your driving technique changed? I know I try more cautious in the rain.

I wonder what ford will think when the cmax owners offer up all this info? Lol. They don't know what they were doing when they set this up.

Oh lawdy. I hope this get fixed soon. I couldn't wait for build date. Didn't think it would ever get here. Now I am chomping at the bit for it to be on the train. Then at the dealer. And then in my pretty lil hands!

Amen.

Same thing my husband said 'don't settle. If you have to order then get what you want. '

Yup yup! And I had three of those now 9 grand kids. My sister had a baby after 18 yrs and adopting two kids. Her story is a miracle :)

And!! If you go to iTunes and search for "little Cajun boy" you can listen to my grandfathers band. That's him on the accordion. Wow! I cannot wait to show my dad!
