  1. Mine was delivered the 25th as ETA had indicated. I picked it up last night and loving it so far. You will get yours soon.
  2. I finally pickup my C-Max yesterday. :happy feet: Model: C-Max Hybrid SE Date Ordered: Saturday, 2/19/2013 Promised Delivery time: 6 to 8 Weeks Actual Delivery Date: 3/25/2013 All in all took about 5 weeks, picked up Mar 26th with just 15 miles on the car. As I was done with all the paper works and ready to drive home, an gentlemen approached me and started some chatting. Turns out he also bought one about a month ago and was there for some service. He rave about how he loves the car and everything. Nice to see another owner so eager to share the love. Loving the car so far. Got 40.3mpg on my first real drive to work today. Not bad at all. :rockon: Of course, being a new car and all, I drove slow and cautiously. ;)
  3. <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote'data-author="dalebunker" data-cid="12266" data-time="1363279729"><p> Mine was (supposedly) to be built on the 12th also! Twins? Let's hope Tuesday is a "good" day despite the weather! Delivery estimated the week of March 25th.....</p></blockquote> Mine was built on the 12th also. Looks like we have a triplet. ETA also on the 25th.
  4. Nice. Looks like Ford is pushing all these new vehicles. There's a Fusion Hybrid And Focus Electric too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vUrjPgnMVA&sns=em
  5. Wash the underside. I always do it at the end of the winter too. If there are sensors in the underside that's prone to water damage then you'll be in trouble when it rains.
  6. Yes. Very annoying indeed. I already put him on my ignore list. Don't want to read the same thing over and over again. I think he just have a major buyer remorse after buying the C-Max. But instead of trying to learn the car and get the most out of it or sell it and move on, he wants Ford to buy back his car and paid him for the "trouble". What a shame. It wouldn't surprise me if he purposely get the bad mpg so that he can show the world and Ford he's getting bad mpg. That's why he has no desire to discuss or try to improve the situation.
  7. My window sticker shows up today too. Very happy indeed. :happy feet:
  8. Just got an update from the gentlement at Blueoval Forum. The expected build date is Mar 12th. Should get my new car before Apr 1st. Yay!!!! :happy feet:
  9. I placed my order on Feb 19th. Received the VIN about 1.5 weeks later. Today the gentlement at Blueoval Forum provided me the expected build date of March 12th. I figure another 2-3 weeks for the car to deliver to the dealer so about 5-6 weeks total. :) Not too bad. Getting excited already. :runaway:
  10. Ford uses Sanyo (Panasonic) LiOn batteries in C-Max and Fusion hybrid. They have the most mature and advance battery production process. That's the most reliable battery you want in your car. http://m.prnewswire.com/news-releases/panasonic-to-supply-lithium-ion-battery-cells-for-ford-motor-companys-hybrid-and-plug-in-hybrid-vehicles-140289203.html
  11. Yay!!! Really looking forward to mine now. :-)
  12. Thanks ScooterS! Very nice write up btw. JohnnOhio, good to know. I hope mine will be as quickly as yours. Rachel, LOL...I might just do that :-D
  13. My dealer finally got back to me regarding the order number and the $750 incentive. They said the $750 is locked in at order time. I guess I will have to take their word for it now. A bit a good news. They gave me a VIN. :happy feet: but I can't seem to pull up the window sticker associated with it. Maybe because it's too new?
  14. Great! Thanks for the info. I will check with my dealer. :-)
  15. Hi, I'm new here. I've placed an order for a Tuxedo Black SE with 203A package. The sales person that I'm in contact with told me they placed the order on Feb 19th. They told me it will take 6 to 8 weeks for the delivery which is the standard answer. Just a quick question though, will we lose the $750 cash incentive if we take delivery after Apr 1st?
