Anyone ever com eup with a PN for this panel? I bought mine used and the panel was missing...

ill give a thumbs up on the subbie... but I'd live to see a 427 badge, or a GT500 both on a cars from 40+ years in the past. if I had to go modern... Vanquish... nearly single digit MPG's and no cargo. but who cares... it would take a lot to the the stupid grin off my face...

I wish the ford had active tire pressure displays. My chevy hhr had it, my wifes saturn has it. my prius did not, and c-max does not...obd2 is monitoring it...

ah...

So are there any apps to down load into MFT? or was this just wishful thinking...

have never broken 80..... come close 81-82...but never under... the blue thing is a rescue hook... there is a telescoping pole that goes on the end... two uses... one to raise and lower the boat into the water off the dock., the second is to assist in rescuing a human should one fall off the dock... here is were we sail...Lake Anne, Reston VA Full Radio control, sails and rudder. no engines...only wind powered

3 boats.....and support gear...

join the crowd.....

I saw the hyusky product in a prius and I wasn't overly impressed... I have the old grey weather techs from my prius...and I test fit them for a color compare and I wasn't liking the color withthe door closed. Open the floor mats pick up the exterior color. but when closed... they look odd... I just noticed, that they sent me mats for a ford escape... on the order form in the box, but my order says cmax, and the part numbers are the same. so I guess the cmax floor pan is the same as the escape...or at the very least close enough... I think I'm going to keep the tan ones...and try to get some fade on..

Yeah I saw that too....just need the shade toned down just a little....

not bad...not sure if its better or not... if I send them back, its going to cost me 20 bucks(about) to ship them back. If I get the black ones, they will ship them for free. so either way. if i send them back and get a refund... I loose the shipping as its not refunded and I've spent 40 bucks for nothing. I've wasted more on much less... I wonder if I can leave the mats in sun and get the tan ones to fade a bit...or maybe some bleach.... just to soften the color a bit...

my previous was a 2010 prius with the flying bridge. I do miss the area under the bridge for storage. but the door pockets in the cmax are absolutely cavernous... and the center console is a bit too deep... next week I'm heading to madison OH, from vienna VA about 380 miles each way.... should be some good high way miles..might have to try eco cruise one way and normal cruise the other... neeed to figure out if I can use google maps on my phone to link to MFT/mysync

just did the 0w-20 oil change, wasn't sure if it was done before I bought the car used. Better safe than sorry... I imagine you got jammed in 495/i95 interchange otherwise nicknamed the mixing bowl... there really isn't any i95 bypass in DC. there is one in Richmond 295 takes you 20 miles out of the way. but you miss down town richmond... And there is no quick/short way around/through DC... unless you do it at midnight... but generally going i95 the accepted method is to keep to the east side of DC across the woodrow wilson bridge... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springfield_Interchange if you are coming south any time soon... be careful. they just closed a bridge @ 495 in Wilmington De which will force more traffic to 95 and downtown wilmington.. if you take the NJ turnpike youd should miss it, but expect more traffic ...http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/06/04/318755158/tilting-delaware-bridge-stays-closed-disrupting-interstate-travel

ok, when you post, on the bottom right of the text window there should be a button "more reply options" hit that button and the screen will load with more options. at the bottom left of the new window you will see "attach files" click "choose files" and it will allow you select files to upload...

cool. long trip. I did a trip from DC to richmond and back about 200 miles round trip.... set the cruise at 65 ran the ac....averaged 44 and change.... you folksk down south with the flat terrain have a huge MPG advantage over us further north... Sorryabout DC traffic... consider it your "welcome to hell"

fwiw... my wife's saturn vue eats brake lights. Either side pretty random about one per year. the only commonality I could come up with is that she and my daughter have this knack for letting the rear tailgate slam down... I figure the 3157 (dual element brake light/taillight) doesn't like the slamming tailgate. So I ordered a pair of these http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/tail-brake-turn/3157-led-bulb-dual-intensity-25-led/804/ they work fine as taillights...but as soon as I step on the brake pedal the LEDs go bright and then the fuse pops... no problem with the standard 3157 incandescent bulbs.. I sent an email to superbrights so we'll see what they suggests...I guess when you go cheap, you get what you pay for...

first fill..not bad for a first tank... 548 miles 234 EV 12.31 gallons (indicated) 44.9 mpg (indicated) 12.84 gallons (pumped) 42.8 mpg (calculated) Tires 40psi this included 200 highway miles @ 65mpg the remainder being a 40 mile round trip daily commute

not bad service... 3 days to get from UK to my door step... $66gbp Looks nice... fairly hard plastic (durable)... has adhesive tape along both long edges....but none on the short ends... my only concern is the fitment on the right and left side. if you notice. in one pic I have not applied any pressure to the edge and it kind of sticks out a bit. and leaves a bit of a gap. However, if I apply pressure (pic with hand) you can see that it seems to line up and fit a bit better. So I have not stuck it on yet. I think I'm going to wait until tomorrow. I'll leave the bumper protector out in the sun tomorrow and get my heat gun up to make the edges a bit more "compliant" the grey blends in well with the paint color. but being as trim on the car is black. it might look out of place on other car colors..

Zath, can you take a pic for me. I was going to try to photoshop the pics I took just to see what it looks like, but if you can take a pic it woudl save me some time

Not sure if anyone is considering weather techs mats. they have three colors grey, tan, black I took the plunge as I was happy with the grey ones I had with my prius. since i still had them I put the grey one inside the c-max. just to check the color. Did not like it so when I ordered new ones for the c-max I got the tan color. doesn't really do anything for me either. the "stone" color" of the cmax is an odd color... So I'm probably going to return them... Not sure if I'd reorder them in black. since I don't think the harsh contrast with black would look real good either. I wonder if I set them outside if they would fade???

my 2013 SEL got the notice when I logged into the ford website... On way to took at this is that there have been no deaths int he c-max (to my knowledge) as a result of any recalls or as a result of failing to issue a recall.... I had a f150 that had the ignition switch problem. It torched up pretty good I got the fire out and was able to save the vehicle. thankfully it wasn't parked in the garage overnight with the family asleep inside when it happened... Every company has these moments of conscience...in which they have to weight the value of potential lawsuits VS the cost of issuing a massive recall.. And I think every company has made the wrong choice, at least once....some many times...

tree falling on car while you are in it.....Scared... 300' crane ride. thrilling...

Hey folks.. well I still have a shark-fin antenna from my prius. not installed and unfortunately painted blizzard white. and I've got no takers on the Priuschat site Figure I might as well paint it and slap it on the car.. so I was looking around on line for paint. $20 bucks for a rattle can... Have not had a chance to check advance. just wondering if anyone else has looked for and found rattle cans with factory colors.. I figure Ican do a good enough job to make it look nice. Probably won't be factory nice, but a couple coats of paint and wetsanding and a clear... would probably do the job to hide the pearl white..

Yupper...

We are repalcing some crosses at work that were damaged in the earthquake severl years ago... and I got to go on a 300' sky ride...
