Thank you for taking the time to film and share this video. I am considering a C-Max and will use your review for my research.

These are great cars I have 2. One plugin and one not. 42.5 mpg non plugin and 52mpg using plugin. Lots of extras like auto wipers, auto lights, various interior lights everywhere. Be careful they had a transmission bearing issue in 2013 with the non plugins. It is a $4000 repair so buy a newer one. These are cheap as can be for what they are. The motor and trans are Toyota for the most part. I have only had programming issues. They sit higher than a normal car so easy in and out. The seats are very comfortable and it has lots of power much more than the Prius

@@b4804514 i test drove a non plug in a few weeks ago and keep thinking about it. I've been wanting a SUV but this hybrid sticks in my mind. It's listed at $7260 with 97K miles. My biggest concern is battery replacement cost. If you can shed any light or any opinion my way I'd appreciate it.

[@b4804514]

@@IAmTheirVoice I have owned 3 Cmax 2 with over 120k and going strong Current 50k. These are solid cars with the prius engine. The HV battery will last a long time. Heat is the battery worst issue. So park in the shade and tint the windows to keep the inside cool. You will be able to sell the car for parts for 5000. Hope that helps.

you all probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost the account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me

CMax-e Hybrid is a great car we continue to enjoy as gas prices are very important issues. Excellent gas mileage and quite comfortable ! Daily drive to and from work easy with once or twice a month fill up, 12 gallons tank is sufficient.

The car is falling apart lol good review

[@theevolvingworld]

We're back from 28 days in Hawaii. These and the focus EV: do not have a very good trck record on reliability. Tesla's are the worst of all EV's - Personal experience confirmed.

[@doThatGWalk]

@@theevolvingworld What do you mean Teslas are the worst EVs?

[@theevolvingworld]

@@doThatGWalk The worst in reliability. Especially, the Models S & X. Know what to expect before buying one is I all I have to say. Hopefully, the newer models have improved.

[@doThatGWalk]

@@theevolvingworld interesting, do u like ur C Max? I'm thinking of getting one for Uber

[@Angel__537]

You think I can fit a Milwaukee packout in the back

[@theevolvingworld]

Seems like it should. I would measure the box & take your tape measure along to the car just to be sure. The battery lump will make it a sit high up, so at least you won't put your back out bending over.

[@annoymous2432]

i owned the ford c max.. . Every other month it had to be shop for something... not very relaiable

[@janetipoo]
