OP here, thanks for all the feedback ! I currently drive a 2014 Focus and its great (except for the turning radius) so it sounds like I'd feel right at home in a C-Max :drool:

Am considering a 2016, have heard the turning radius isn't great - I don't expect sports car handing but do need to get in my garage (smallish 1 car townhouse) - also the occasional U turn etc - how would you rate handling ?

Autoreviewsdotcom (see link below) mentions the 1.0 EB gas motor might be used, is it possible ? http://www.automobilesreview.com/auto-news/ford-teases-new-c-max-family-range-ahead-of-reveal-on-september-17th/89741/

In the past these live twitter chats are so lawered up about all you get are a bunch of softball questions (can't blame Ford, no telling who is lurking) - the entire 'conversation' usually ends up on Ford Social so you won't miss a thing, great PR move on Ford's part, link to follow but it may take a few days - usually some good Q&A so stay tuned !

How is the (traction) battery temp after a longish drive in Texas (15 + miles) A/C ?
-
Was thinking of the name Kaley (Kaley Cuoco (Penny on The Big Bang Theory)) gotta do something first, buy a C-Max !

Would a trickle charger like this (see link) $ 26..99 model from Sears be good enough to get you going (fast, 5 or 10 minutes) can hassle with the dealer later for a fix (new battery & whatever else) ((don't want to be stuck, would this get me going ?)) http://www.sears.com/diehard-battery-charger-maintainer/p-02871219000P?sid=IDx01192011x000001&kpid=02871219000&kispla=02871219000P

Wonder why and if SE's are more prone to battery failure than SEL's (that is what the poll indicates) more SE owners chimed in ? (would seem to me the SEL's would be more prone (isn't the push button start system 'looking' for its key 24 7)) ?

Charge the 12V battery , yes !

Any news Ted, also any way for the end user (me) to tell if TSB 13-05-01 – 2013 C-Max, Fusion, MKZ – Hybrid And Energi – 12 Volt Battery Unable To Hold Charge - - - has been applied to a 2014 C-Max ?

78 degrees with a high fan setting with recurc on is fine for me (never auto) else 74 with lower fan speed (less MPG but its quieter)

To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer. (did I just say that ?)

Saw my first Energi (a C-Max) on the freeway here in Houston today (on 290) - I need to get with it, no C-Max here of any kind (yet) ...
