What video? Honestly, I was a little disappointed that the 110v plug wasn't standard as shown in the Ford site. I'm not sure what to do with a 12v plug.

There are thousands of 12v accessories out there, get creative.

Jerry Can.

I thought I read somewhere it’s supposed to come with two. But I only had one as well.

I had one as well. Can anyone say exactly what was included in the bag with the floor mats? I have two mats, the 12V cord, and the gas funnel. Am I missing anything?

The 110V/400W outlet in the cab was always an option and not standard. I added it to my order for $140 invoice price ($150 MSRP).

The one shown in the bed I believe only comes with the Luxury Packages.

I did the same, I have lariat non-Lux and only have the 110v in the cab

You can still get metal jerry cans. They are stated to be for "non potable water" but the product is lined with a solvent proof coating. I may or may not have several in my shed, filled with gasoline. They may or may not be orders of magnitude better than the crappy plastic carb cans.

Any thoughts on jerry can mounts in the maverick? I’m thinking about it but was not sure about drilling holes.

IDK. Just strap them in using the existing tie downs? If you get a can holder you would likely have to use screws.

I was looking for a locking option so I can leave them in full time

I just wanted to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.

In a city of tweekers there is no locking option

You can also buy one designed to ride along in an HOV lane.

The issue with metal gas cans is they sweat on the inside and are prone to water build up in the gas. Plastic cans aren't supposed to do that. With that said I have both like you filled with gas in my shed and make sure to treat every can with something like stabl regardless of how long the gas is being stored.

Do you really think I would be here if I hadn’t looked?

That can only happen if the can isn't full and it gets colder than the dew point AND there is sufficient humidity in the air inside the can to condense. Store them full and you will never have a problem.

Also stabil is basically a waste of money if you keep them full. Jerry cans seal well enough that they don't off-gas or oxidize. Rotate the fuel once a year and never worry about it again. Been doing it that way for years.
