My wife loves her new C-Max. She thought it would be difficult to move from her Explorer to the C-Max but the transition has gone well. As you all know the cabin is really roomy. I've added a Class II hitch so we can haul our bikes, or install a cargo platform to haul her potting soil, mulch or plants. The improvement in MPG helps offset 2/3rds of our payment. We did have our first dead battery ordeal after just 2 weeks of operation, not fun. Hope that is resolved. Now to find a thread on SYNC. I think ours is deaf.
