Update done yesterday (8/14/13). Just looked and my Eco Cruise is ON. Is that proof the update didn't take? Thanks, Don

I think you miss WAB's point. He's concerned about a COLD engine starting up at 50+ m.p.h. Don

I'm fairly convinced m.p.g. on the C-Max is linked to the color of the vehicle. ;) Don

Thanks but there has to be a better way than that to know if the upgrade "took". I'll keep reading in the forums to see if there is. Don

Thanks! The camera isn't level either. :) LOL!!! Don

I'd love to know if you find a Mac version bigalpha - Windows and I parted company several years ago (thank goodness)!

Just stuff.

Hi MtnMarty, Thanks. Appreciate the m.p.g. after software update info. I think your red is my fav C-Max color. Don

Hi ScubaDad, Thanks for the invite but I kinda keep to myself. I do however, appreciate your kind words and invite. I hope you have a good time here in early September and that our extremely wet Spring and Summer end with some drier weather. Don

The Cardinal was kind enough to fly into this pic as I was taking it. -

Not Photoshop'd. It took me 11 years to get these two in a photo together. Eleven long years of standing on my deck in the Winter cold and in the Summer heat. Last year they finally stayed together long enough for me to get 7 or 8 pics of them. The Cardinal was always the problem, very skittish bird. -

I haven't put this on my C-Max yet but will soon. It's o.k. for non-lefties to drive Hybrids! :) -

My first American vehicle in 30 or 40 years and I'm loving it! I like Hondas and bought an Insight (hybrid) a couple of years ago. I couldn't get rid of it soon enough, I really didn't like how it handled, shook at red lights, drove, etc. I even think the C-Max is good looking! Getting 42.2 m.p.g. (in the mountains of western, NC) before the software upgrade. That isn't 47 m.p.g. but it isn't bad! -
Hi Everyone, New member here. I drove my C-Max SE home on 11/16/12. It's my first American brand vehicle in something like 40 or 50 years and I LOVE it!!!! I've owned mostly Japanese and German vehicles during those years. I live in the mountains of western North Carolina (highest elevations east of the Mississippi - I did NOT know that) and I just got to 42.2 m.p.g. yesterday. Now that the engine is getting broken in, Winter has passed, and I use Empower mode, my m.p.g. goes up by 0.1 with every drive, all of them just short trips to town. This looks like a great Forum and I'll be happy to both share and soak up knowledge. I'm going to wait a while to get the upgrades and headliner fix as this is a small town (Brevard, NC) and I want the dealer to figure it all out beforehand so I'm not the first. I'm also looking for feedback from others here if the mileage upgrade makes any difference. Thanks, Donald Weiser www.whitesquirrelart.com
