Edsel Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 FTFY ;) Fuelly is currently at 40.6 and my best guess is it will level off around the 41-ish range after all the summer/warm weather tanks stop contributing in the upcoming weeks. Since the new EPA combined is 43mpg, that will be in line with other hybrids on fuelly that typically register 1-2mpg below their respective EPA combined numbers. I personally think the refund amount is too low based on 100,000 miles (warranty) and $4 gallon fuel and should be in the $750-1,000 range (upper limit for CARB states with 150,000 mile warranty). Plus the the big hit we just took on trade in value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-MaxSea Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Sorry, It has always been $550 for buyers, and $325 for leasers here in the states. (Canada more, most likely for the reason Frank stated) N Edited September 18, 2013 by C-MaxSea hybridbear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we will see since FedEx delivers when I am not home. Where did you get the tracking information? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoutsNC Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I have an account with FedEx. Anytime a package is detected in the system with my address, it sends me an email. I think you can setup an account for free and get these notifications. I also have the same thing with UPS. It really helps to know when things are coming and when they are delivered without having to have the tracking numbers. hybridbear, salsaguy and ptjones 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adair Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 what happened to the $800 reported for new owners? I thought the $500 was for leased owners? Did I miss something? I read on the net that the amount was going to be $800 for new owners.I believe it's always been $550 for those who purchased their cars, $325 for those who leased. Our Canadian brothers and sisters get more because of higher gas prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted September 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I never heard the $800 mentioned.Don't remember where it on the Net, but I read that the figure was higher. Oh well, better than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salsaguy Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 mtb, nope, always was $550 for USA purchases. never read $800. go back and find your source. roninsd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNCGeek Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 This is awesome, I have been away and not checking this forums, but stopped by to check something else and saw this. I've never been convinced about the mpg numbers from Ford with regard to the C-max, but they are still pretty decent for the utility and features of the c-max so I was not disappointed too much. $550 back in my pocket is certainly a nice gesture by Ford though, just need to keep an eye out for the Fedex guy/gal.

mtb9153 Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Apparently when you bought your CMax has nothing to do with it. I bought mine on September 20th, which is one year ago TODAY! no check yet. SHOW ME THE MONEY! I was one of if not the first in the south bay to buy a CMax. Mine was driven off the car carrier within hours the same day I bought it. Fresh from Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jus-A-CMax Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) I called the Ford customer service yesterday for another matter and as such, I did slip in a question about when my check was coming, they are doing it "in batches". So lets all be patient. Thats makes it $750 TOTAL when the check comes, that I have got back from Ford. $200 for the Irvine Pow-Wow and now this...and plus WELL OVER 47+MPG City driving....gotta :flirt: that ;) :dance: :skateboard: :headspin: Edited September 20, 2013 by Jus-A-CMax salsaguy, Adair and LizM 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveofDurham Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 What's with the slow motion mail out. Maybe they are trying to keep the C-Max mail room in EV and out of ICE. LizM and Edsel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptjones Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 For me I'm not complaining about the mileage when I regularly get 50mpg :) on the HWYs around Atlanta going 70-55mph with my Cover Mods. They will probably deliver the check to my house and nobody home during the day. We will see how that ends up. I'm wondering if this isn't a PR thing, I don't think they needed to do it, there is plenty of us getting close to the advertised mileage.

LaurasCmax Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I logged in today to see if anyone else had gotten their checks, and lo and behold, the doorbell rang and FedEx delivered mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted September 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) Our check came today in a FedEx mailer, was left on my doorstep which is good because if they stuck it through the mail slot in the front door, my dog would have shredded it. Now what to buy with this new treasure. Logic tells me it should be applied to my car payment...NOT!
