Just going on 2 weeks on my 2014 Energi, so far no problems and I'm loving the car still.

I'll have to make a run to Walmart.

I wouldn't be surprised to see GPS tracking pass soon in the super majority conservative legislative & governor of my state of Utah.

Thanks for the reminder not the trust the dealer to check your tire pressure. I've got my Max in there today to get the splash-guards installed --I had the dealer include them *installed* as part of my purchase.

Spring loaded sun shade and easy to stow?! Where did you get it? I've got a fold up one that's a pain to stow as it's so think when folded up.

I did my part, I purchased my Energi in Sept. I've seen ad's for the C-Max online and heard them on the radio here in Utah as well. The Sept year-end deal was still in effect from Aug but the stock was down to 4 C-Max.

Utah 24.5, not too bad but I'm with you and enjoying my 77mpg in my Energi. 90% of my driving is all EV now.

They come with mounts that attach to the windshield and they are spring loaded to keep themselves folded up. You pull them together and there is velcro that gets them to bind together to close the sun out. Now that you mention it, reaching across the C-Max would be an issue. Powered sunshade would be awesome.

Thanks Rick.

When they are folded up they're only about an inch width in size. With the *huge* front window of the CMAX I doubt it'll be an issue and it never was for my Escape, Accord, or 626 back in the day. When they are first installed you'll know they are there but they never interfered with me being able to see in any of my previous cars I've used them.

Sorry to hear about Maxus, if you're not sure who to go to ask your insurance agent. I've found mine knows the local repair shops, but Safelite is a good choice as well.

I'm getting mine tinted tomorrow to the legal limit in my state. I've tinted the windows in my previous cars and it really helps keep the summer heat out.

I got a good deal on my Energi, like others, I research a ton before buying and know what my trade-in is worth (if I'm doing one) and what a fair price is on the new. I waffled between a Red SEL (303a) and the base Energi I did purchase, having not used a drop of gas in a week of commuting to/from work helps me think I made the right choice. My "base" Energi is pretty loaded, everything on my list that I wanted --and a few things I didn't-- about the only thing I miss from my previous car is the backup camera. The accent lighting in the cup holders has really come in handy at night and a bonus to have the lighting elsewhere.

I'd love to see Torque as a SYNC app. I have ordered a ODB sensor and I do have a 'droid tablet I could use but would rather not figure out a mounting spot and just use the big SYNC screen.

Thanks MAX, I'll try that next time I forget to look before getting out of the car. Still tempted to see if I can make the log with Torque and a ODB2 module.
