TxWally Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) ok, Actually I'm from NY/NJ, and just moved here less than a month ago. After using mass transit in NJ for the last 10 years, my new TX 42 mile commute, usually with sections of bumper to bumper traffic, I decided I could use a hybrid.Lots of debate between the C-Max, and the fusion, but I just couldn't justify not having decent trunk space. Especially if we were going use it to take a weekend road trip to explore this big new state. So after a few weeks hunting one down, I'm now the (so-far) happy owner of a 13' platinum white SEL with medium light stone interior with the 303a, and the pano roof. There were a few options I could have done without, but since I was borrowing an 06' accord to get to work, I figured I could pay for some extra goodies.On the first drive into work, I was very happy that I only used .8 gallons!!!!! And I'm new to hybrid driving. Also there seem to be a lot of BIG pickups here not happy with me using eco cruise to keep her at 62 so I can make that vine look like kudzu.The Mrs enjoys driving this thing so much (and wants an auto lift-gate for her next car) except for my work commute we have to call dibs on the car instead of the mini-van.I guess my only disappointment so far is not having a spare. personally I'd rather jack up the car, and get rolling again, but then I'd have the trunk of the fusion. ;) Edited January 31, 2013 by TxWally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
