Adair Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Nose to nose @Kohls by JellyBean439, on Flickr Saw a near-twin at Kohl's the other day. SEL but with black interior. I couldn't resist parking across from it. Stalled when we were ready to leave ........ just in case the owner came out. But nope.

mtb9153 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Ha...yeah...from a distance that look similar to other SUVs. However, after a while, your eyes become trained...no more grasshopper but become Yoda of the CMax spotting... :drool: I am seeing more CMaxs now and these drivers are driving them fast - good to see. Yes, yes, I am in my FE :superhero: mode most of the time.Jus I think we need a section in the forum called CMaxspotting as a variation from that movie trainspotting but all the posts for CMaxes seen in there.

mtb9153 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Spotted this grey one at Fort Eustis, VA. Couldn't help but pull up next to it in the lot.Wait until the big event and hopefully we will have a parking lot full of them all at once? It is an awesome sight. Somebody local needs to bring a ladder so we can get a high up view of them all together for a group photo with a wide angle lens or fish eye. if I'm there with my HD Video camera I can shoot it.

Are those things quiet? Can't be like my nitro gas R/C F-150. Can't have a bunch of noise or smelly exhaust at events like an outdoor wedding or any outdoor event I'm filming.

Great for larger properties, farms, scenic locations. He got some incredible shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jus-A-CMax Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 So here I was in the Costco carpark in Simi. I normally park away from the other drivers...jus so they don't ding my car and then I have to post in that "I'm Mad" thread...stay away, stay away... :drop: So I did my shopping, came back and this LOVELY brand spanking new dark gray Energi was parked next to mine...hee :) I had to leave but it would have been nice to chat with the owner. May be one day he/she will claim the picture if they find this forum & thread. And then on the 118 west, on my way to a job, I spot another brand spanking new CMax... 2 CMaxs in one day and it's not even over yet ;) JAZ and ScubaDadMiami 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotPotato Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Cruised behind a pearl white SEL in my black SE for a while when in the San Fernando Valley recently. Wonder if it was One Of Ours? Tripod-mounted action shots, eh? I'd better not pick my nose while driving near other C-Maxes out on the road... Jus-A-CMax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotPotato Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 We need bumper stickers with the forum addressI'm on it! Just made one online. White & clear so it can go on the back window. Top half says in big letters the question I always hear: "What is it?" Bottom half has the forum address. If you like my design, you can order the identical one online: http://www.makestickers.com/DesignReorder.aspx?SKU=Sticker_3x10_Clear&DN=130510174800&cid=qu4tdqxjfruwfddnjxszurm3#.UY16YwUi0fE.email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowStorm Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Saw an SEL, steel roof and quite sure it was white platinum on I66 in VA on May 3rd. We were on the way to the airport for a weeks vacation in Puerto Rico where I kept looking but didn't see any C-Maxs (at least not that I could be sure of). But there are a ton of Fords there.

Mr. Green Jeans Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 As driving home from work last Friday with my 6 day old adoptee, on a country road, I pass his twin going the opposite direction. We exchanged waves and went on. I think she was as shocked as I was. On Sunday at a family get together. I parked my Platinum Energi next to my father in law's Ice Storm SE. I should have taken "family" photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jus-A-CMax Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) This one comes with a good story...kinda reminds me of Adair and Jelly Bean. I was heading east on Cochran Rd in Simi Valley and I saw this Candy Blue CMax up ahead. I pulled up my cam and snapped the CandyBlue and I noticed this one had the sticker in the back and something on the antenna. Cool, a CMax owner who likes to adds stuff to the car :) I could not help myself so I P&G past CandyBlue and as I glanced over to my left, I noticed it was a woman driver. She looked at me as I was passing by (surpised by this) and I gave her the thumbs up and pulled away while she ended up turning left on a street ahead. I think she was watching me in the rear vision as I was watching her. The Candy Blue is real nice, real NICE! No wonder Adair :wub2: Jelly Bean :rockon: One day she might claim this picture, I did leave the stickers on but scubbed her plate for privacy :drool: Edited May 17, 2013 by Jus-A-CMax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adair Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Wouldn't you love a......I don't know, a flashing light with the forum address.........or something to get their attention and bring them on in? Would love to hear all their stories!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
