Greetings and salutations! I'm here to share the joy of owning the best-kept secret in the car market. These cars aren't just rare on the ground, here in Denver, they're poorly documented on the web. I'm coming in from the VW webspace, where there's more fact, fuss and fantasy posted every day than here in a year. Let me add my two cents, er, 2 kw, to these discussions. Full disclosure: I am one and the same as GTIGuy, over in the fordcmaxenergiforum. I joined there first while I was shopping for a C-Max. Then I discovered this forum, with more topics and traffic. The Energi forum hasn't allowed me to rename that account, which ought to be NRGTi, but there it is. Two months and 3000 miles in, I'm happy I found this car. It's the most efficient performance car I can find, as well as the best-performing Green car!

Hi Everyone, New member here. I drove my C-Max SE home on 11/16/12. It's my first American brand vehicle in something like 40 or 50 years and I LOVE it!!!! I've owned mostly Japanese and German vehicles during those years. I live in the mountains of western North Carolina (highest elevations east of the Mississippi - I did NOT know that) and I just got to 42.2 m.p.g. yesterday. Now that the engine is getting broken in, Winter has passed, and I use Empower mode, my m.p.g. goes up by 0.1 with every drive, all of them just short trips to town. This looks like a great Forum and I'll be happy to both share and soak up knowledge. I'm going to wait a while to get the upgrades and headliner fix as this is a small town (Brevard, NC) and I want the dealer to figure it all out beforehand so I'm not the first. I'm also looking for feedback from others here if the mileage upgrade makes any difference. Thanks, Donald Weiser www.whitesquirrelart.com

We're in our second week with the C Max. Just back from our first road trip, and have reached 700 miles total. Going over was on interstate and produced 43 mpg. We returned by back roads with 41 mpg. This is our second hybrid, the other is a 2008 Escape. Hence we aren't new to hybrids. A question: How do you get the "fuelly" box at the bottom of the posts? Thanks!
