Having driven a long line of flat back SUVs, it sure would be nice to have a rear wiper. It seems the angle of the rear window collects everything from dew to leaves and doesn't clear aerodynamically in the rain. Does the Titanium model have a rear wiper?

I have been reading these threads and all the tips mentioned. It sure is a lot to digest, and lots of differing opinions. Of course, you're driving area is probably more like mine than someone in Texas or the long flat stretches of Florida. There isn't much flat around here! Today was local trips and it seems to be doing well, even in the heat. I don't blast the A/C anyway, so keeping it reasonable seemed to prevent any effect on performance. EV+ has even finally remembered home. Maybe soon it will remember work and we'll see if that makes any difference. I sure have come to realize how very aggressive most drivers are around here. I hope I wasn't like that. I seem to be a lot calmer driver in this car, though. They do not appreciated slow starts and stops! I have left a message with my original salesman about the upgrade, but no response yet. No big surprise there, as I'm still waiting for my second key which he misplaced on delivery day.

Bought mine from Portsmouth Ford. I haven't been in since I bought it. I don't think I have the update everyone is talking about, since I drop out of EV mode at 63mph. My commute is either Saco/Dover or Saco/Newburyport, so more highway than I'd like, but avg as of today is 40.7 lifetime and this 2nd fill-up is 43.7mpg so far trip total. I'll be looking for as many tips as possible, but am really pleased so far.

New to the FFH. Just put on my first 1,000 miles. Did you have yours during this past winter?
I am also in the Saco area.

Got my PCM update a couple of weeks ago. At the time, I asked about DRLs. They looked at me kind of funny, but I had the trusty directions from this thread in my pocket (just in case it was needed). I mentioned that I knew it was in the body control module. They said they'd see what they could do, as they hadn't had that request before. Two hours later the update was done and the DRLs were turned on. No charge, though they did explain that the DRLs are only on when the car is actually in gear, no in park. My dealer is a Ford/Lincoln dealer. I have an SE model, not a HyTi, but it should be the same software.
