I am driving from Dallas to Austin this weekend and will stay at the 75mph speed limit. Will report on my mpg at those speeds. Have you noticed any Ford dealers in Austin with Energi's in stock?

I could never get past entering the URL screen on my iPhone 5 with IOS 6.

On my SEL there is a setting on the right info screen that controls lights off delay. It was defaulted to no delay.

Has anyone tried to use the mobile app linked from this board? When I try to add the URL http://fordcmaxhybridforum.com to the app I get an error.

That's decent mileage. I just completed a 200 mile trip in my Passat TDI at 75 mph and avg 40mpg. Diesel is .60 more per gallon than regular at the station I filled.

Hello, what is your highway mileage?

If you have a smart phone you can download a MFT (my Ford Touch) app that demos how the system works.

One of my tire gauges says the pressure is 38psi another says the pressure is 40psi.

Congrats, I traded a 2010 Jetta TDI for my C-Max.

A way to T into the quick connect would be perfect, no vehicle mods required.

Good info.

I thought about getting a deep cycle marine battery and using it as a power buffer as you suggest. i also agree with free air mounting the inverter for cooling, a garage wall is what I am considerting. The technical obstacle is how to safely (large current draw) mounting a 12v tap point inside the C-Max to connect to the inverter. Found these docs about the battery; https://skydrive.liv...AKZCTpCF0iZ2ya8

Consumer Reports tested using a car powered inverter during a power outage with good results. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/2012/02/can-a-pint-sized-power-inverter-replace-a-generator/index.htm

I think there are some quailty problems with the exterior. I noticed my hood had a gap on the drivers side but it touches on the passenger side at the top. My Passat had numerous problems on delivery. They had to replace the entire dashboard due to dings and uneven finish. The whole front lower front bumper paint had to be redone. My Passat was delivered to me two weeks after I paid for it. I try to support American workers but they don't make it easy to do so.

Mine has it on both sides.

Thanks everyone for recommendations.

Thanks, same color as mine. What do you use on the interior (dash) and leather surfaces?

What type of wax do you use?

Has anyone considered using the traction battery on their C-Max to power an inverter for emergency power. The Prius guys are doing it. http://hiwaay.net/~bzwilson/prius/priups.html

Here is one with 1,100 miles selling used for 30,000. http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?tracktype=usedcc&csDlId=&csDgId=&listingId=100760408&listingRecNum=1&criteria=sf1Dir%3DDESC%26mkId%3D20015%26stkTyp%3DU%26mdId%3D49085%26rd%3D100000%26crSrtFlds%3DstkTypId-feedSegId-mkId-mdId%26zc%3D75002%26rn%3D0%26PMmt%3D1-1-0%26stkTypId%3D28881%26sf2Dir%3DASC%26sf1Nm%3Dprice%26sf2Nm%3Dmiles%26isDealerGrouping%3Dfalse%26rpp%3D50%26feedSegId%3D28705&aff=national&listType=1

Good to hear its easy to repair.
