Vampireslug Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 I just picked up our new Tuxedo Black 2014 SEL last night and drove it into work today for the first time. All I can say is wow! My old vehicle is a 2009 Explorer Sportrac averaging 18 MPG and now I'm in a whole new world where, so far, I'm getting 36.8! I drive about 20 miles each way for work so I spend a lot of time on Detroit freeways and not only am I saving money on gas now but the ride is amazing as well. The Sync is pretty cool also, I just hit a button, say "USB" and tell the car to play a specific album from my MP3 collection and off I go. My Wife and I are driving from Detroit to Connecticut and Rhode Island in about a week so that will be a true test of the C-MAX... I'm pretty excited!

FordIVTteam Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Congrats, Vampireslug! Not only did you get a new C-MAX, but you also found open freeways in the Detroit area!?!? That's an A++ in my book. ;) I'm here if you have any SYNC questions or concerns.Enjoy your road trip! :shift:Rebecca Edited August 5, 2014 by FordIVTteam hybridbear and Vampireslug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal Oak Ford... I've bought my last two vehicles there and it's within walking distance so if I ever need service I can drop off the vehicle and walk home! hybridbear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordIVTteam Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I'm jealous that you get the road pretty much to yourself, but I'm NOT jealous of your work schedule. LOLRebecca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
