Is it a hybrid or an EB?

[Ktowntimmy]

Is there a visual way to tell if the truck is hybrid or EB? Badges, different grills, anything? Or do you just have to ask the owner?

Hybrids have a little badge on the tailgate. That's it.

No hybrid badge or AWD badge is a FWD EB. That's about it.

If you're driving a hybrid and another Mav hauls up on you then pauses and then proceeds to fly past you. It's the Egoboost passing you.

Well, I never was built for speed…I’m built for comfort and endurance.

Well, I have an EB so perhaps biased. However, I do not see that the hybrid has more comfort, and the jury is still out on the endurance part. So far, many hybrid owners have had to have endurance for recalls and several messages on Ford Pass!!!

Hybrids are super smooth no shifting, unless engine shutters or brakes lockup.

Badges aside, because people do debadge, how else? You'd have to get underneath or pop the hood. What about radiator size? Is the hybrid the same as the FWD EB?

Of course FX-4 or Tremor decals only on EB AWD. Assuming their correct.
Edit: Tremor and FX-4 have different grill/bumper cover.

I was referring to the drivers, not the trucks

Assuming it's not debadged --
Left side badge, it's a hybrid.
Right side badge, it's an AWD Ecoboost.
No badge? It's a FWD Ecoboost and I guess I don't know why y'bought it unless it was just all you could get.

Inside the Maverick, the hybrid will have a power/braking gauge in the left side of the dash whereas the EB will have a tachometer.

Turbocharged engines have intercoolers that are usually mounted on the lower part of the front end. Is this true with the EB Mav? If so, you can tell by that. Hybrids won't have an intercooler.
