Currently live in Northern Virginia I could see myself moving south in a few years. but definitely not north.
I currently drive a 2013 Cmax Hybrid with 80K miles most of the miles are spent on an 18 mile slug into work each day. Have done the occasional trip to canada, florida, New Hampshire, ohio. so i do get around with it. The Cmax has known transmission issues so I'm looking to get rid of it before 100K
My hobby is Remote control sail boats which are getting bigger and harder to haul in the Cmax. very hard to haul extra people and boats with out a masters degree in tetris.
So i've been looking at vehicles online, and I don't need the big size of a minivan, but I do like the options for a minivan or a small SUV, just not fond of the prices. (did I mention I'm cheap) . a titanium TC could be had for under 30. lightly used ones for right around 20... even the xlt's are bad optioned out... nto sure the jump to a titanium is worth it from an XLT.
The TC Wagon has had my eye for a while (before I bought the cmax) and I like the vastness of the cargo area. (basically a big empty box) with options for 3 rows of seats.
There isn't much that I don't like, but Lack of power, looks only a mother could love, seats don't tryly fold flat into the floor, suspension (rear), fuel mileage.
I am used to driving a hybrid so the lack of power doen't scare me to much, but do I need to be concerned? is there a benefit of the 2.5 Vs the 2.0 I could probably get a fleet option based on my current employer...
talk to me folks...
