I'm a retired computer programmer. I shouldn't have any issues learning it. Thanks

Nice! I'm going to have to learn Forscan some time. Thanks

Yes it does take a while to get up to speed in electric mode. I often do go out of electric mode during that time. Once I'm up to speed, I ease off the accelerator a bit and it switches to charge, then as I ease back on the accelerator again, it switches to electric. It's a very fine line...

Thanks, I'm a retired computer programmer so I'm hoping it comes somewhat naturally once I get into it.

How do you do the forscan programming thing? It just be the solution to a lot of things like this. Is there a training link?

Gotcha. Yes I'm talking hybrid. And, yes, I use the ev coach as a feedback loop. I can boost my mpg by 10mpg or more if I keep it in electric as much as possible. Granted, you lose power but you save gas!

I beg to differ. I see a big difference with eco mode. If I select EV mode and "listen" to it, I find that eco mode allows me to stay in electric mode much longer and more consistently than regular.

Thanks, I figured that. Dang, I should have asked for that while negotiating for my Mav.

Cool! I was bummed to see that it's not on paper by default any more. My single eye vision (bad eye was my close-up eye) doesn't lend itself well to looking things up on the screen in my Mav. Any chance of doing one more? Haha

Agree. It just seemed odd that they would be chattering already so soon after purchase as a new vehicle. Thanks to you and all the others on here for your advice.

I'll check it out. Speaking of bug guts... what do you clean your windshield with before applying the ceramic spray?

Hi - did you see my DM in this tool?

Agree, I'll just learn to accept the look :)

I found the spot, and my wiper is parked right over it. I can push the wiper lower but that's where it comes to rest when the wipers are turned off. If this is as per design, it sure looks odd. Oh well

Good thought, I'll check both wet and dry. Do yours drop all the way down below where the hood flares up (so they are protected by the hood and note aerodynamic I assume)?
