Building a Luxury Ranch version of the Maverick - by Landon @ Korf Ford

[yank283]

fun concept, but it's an entry level vehicle, and trying to make it into a silk purse is kind of pointless. Just go ahead and get an F250.

I think it is a cool idea and look forward to the end result. Some (most) folks don't want or need something that big (or an F-150 for that matter). I just witnessed last week a brand new shiny F-250 back into a parked car on the street. The driver was about to jet until he noticed that me and my wife witnessed it. Then he slowed down and about the same time the owners of the vehicle walked up to the vehicle on the sidewalk.

Dealing with the never ending rattles and creaks coming from the dash would contribute far more to any perception of luxury than seat materials…

Put on a lift kit! either RC full kit or the Eibach with Bilstiens. Ditch lights. Cat back exhaust. and the new FORM lighting. Don't forget a subwoofer, Wolfbox TRI-Pro dash cam, back flip cover, tint, fender flares, tailgate spoiler, cab spoiler, console vault. should be a good start.

Idk how much I have to pay, but I’ll sell a kidney for cooled seats that match my lariat interior

One of my main disappointments going from XLT -> Lariat. The seats are so hot, not even perforated. Our F150 Lightning Lariat had cooled seats, most Lariat trims on other models do as well (I think). Okay that and no driver auto-dimming mirror.

I’ve had 3 Mavericks. Two OG ones- FX4 and a Hybrid. Now a 25 AWD Hybrid. The rattles drive me bonkers. Of course “we can’t duplicate the issue” when I take it in for service. I’ve also owned over time 3 F150s & 2 Escapes. This Maverick takes the trophy for rattles.

Ceramic film on the windows for IR takes care of most of the heat for me.

I bought some cheap but stylishly comfortable seat covers for my recycled plastic Lobo seats that were unbearably hot here in the desert southwest.

I’m thinking of somehow diverting the under seat AC vent up towards my keester. C’mon Mabett!

Here is an update. Have the plug-and-play kicker kit installed; wheels, tires, and upgraded springs too.

Waiting for the 300T kit to be released, and we will come up with a special edition. I have some ideas.

I think all the parts are available to purchase separately now - assuming the turbo from the 2.3L EB is 300T Maverick.

Wheels, Intercooler, Suspension are already available to purchase. No Tune is available yet - or the nifty Emblem

Eventually & supposedly a customer or dealer can order the 300T option on a new scheduled Maverick order - with the 300T to be dealer installed.

Maybe you guys will be the first You’ll get more love from this forum, Landon, than you did with the “King Ranch”

Until you release the price haha.

Not a terrible idea--

How much was that plug and play subwoofer kit? Does it just sit in the storage box or is it secured in some manner?

Bumping for visibility, though I will say most things I want are acoustic dampening. More power would also be nice.

Here we are, guys and gals. A few more touches before it is ready. Waiting to mount the graphics. Have another piece from Ford that is taking FOREVER. Custom leather is installed. Once we get the graphics on then it will all jive in the mind.

We also clear bra'd the hood, ceramic tinted all the glass, and we installed sound deadening to the doors and back portion for a quiet ride.
