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!
