Driving From Los Angeles to San Francisco on a Tank of Gas in a Ford C-MAX Hybrid

Ford C-MAX Hybrid LA to SF — Our trip from Los Angeles to San Francisco in a Ford C-MAX Hybrid

We made it to San Francisco with a Ford C-MAX Hybrid. Although we were 30 miles short of the entire trip on a tank of gasoline, we can blame it on the strong head winds we ran into.

I will write more about the trip and how the Ford C-MAX Hybrid handled, but needless to say, my co-pilot and I were impressed with the hybrid.

In the meantime, we are rushing back to Los Angeles to leave again for Pikes Peak.
