    Sold our Fiat 500 convertible and bought a C as a daily driver, primarily for my wife. I'll drive the gas hog. Our 2013 Ford C Max! In nine months, our average is 44.7. We're certainly not complaining.

    Its interesting the two theories of hybrid. The C Max runs between ICE and EV for propulsion. It can travel up to 85 mph on EV alone. 190 hp combined.
    It appears the Prius uses both the ICE and EV nearly all the time. The Prius is about 800 pounds lighter than the C Max.

    Anyway... more to come from Texas!
