SOLD! Dealer agreed to buy it back at slightly less than the buying price as long as I keep miles below 7.5K. Already reserved a fusion hybrid. It will at least be something nice to look at. Yay!

Display 41.2 mpg So far, disappointing mileage. I am researching to sell this back under lemon laws. If I am going to get 40 mpg, I would rather get it in a better looking car (Fusion Hybrid) than this.

Cruise control set at 63 mph. At that speed, good noise isolation but ride is very harsh at 44 psi front, 42 psi rear. I will try 40 psi front, 38 psi rear tomorrow. Luggage capacity seems to be quite a bit less than Prius. It looks to me that there is more height space than usable surface area. Display showed 45 !!!

Went down below 40. Perhaps winter blend? Going on a 2 day road trip to San Diego this weekend. Hoping to maximize fuel economy by keeping it < 65 mph on the interstate. Upped tire pressure to: 44 front, 42 rear

It is easier to run on battery power alone in the C-Max compared to my 2006 Prius. Still not impressed with the mileage since my wife got a 50+ tank on the 6 year old Prius.

Tire Pressure: 40 front, 38 rear. Not sure if this tank can take more than 10 gallons at once. I have strong suspicion that the pump was not properly calibrated and may have overcharged me. We will see what happens with this tank. Anyway, the display showed 41.3 mpg.

So far I have not been able to get even close to the advertised mileage. May be I need to change my driving style since I am used to driving Prius.
