  2. Poll: Who here is interested in Buying the New Ford EV Midsize Pickup in 2027

    I have a cmax energy a plug in hybrid and love it.
  3. K Trucks (Kei Cars) - Would you buy?

    You started this making claims based upon a statistic not conducted in a scientific manner. Kinda like the tobacco lobby adds. You made a statement regarding the safety of motorcycles not I. I was criticle of the statistic you quoted and recommended nothing. I used an example of a coworkers...
  4. K Trucks (Kei Cars) - Would you buy?

    But those numbers do not take into consideration safety devices used in the incidents so cannot be scientifically compared. So many bike injuries are caused by riders not wearing helmets, leathers while all cars today are equipped with air bags even if belts are not used. I for one never use a...
  5. Maverick mileage versus my calculations

    chuckle...didn't notice I just noticed the numbers came closer to matching when i added the two together
  6. Upgrade list for 2025 hybrid powertrain to reach 200k+ miles

    Do you really think this is necessary? look around at all the old old Ford trucks still working. Replacing the plastic tubing and proper maintenance is a must do I agree and is a good idea.
  7. Spark Plug change w/ cylinder boroscope photos (2022 Ecoboost @ 53k miles)

    I can see your using gas without a good additive. I use Lucas gas treatment in every tank on all vehicles diesel or gas aids lubricity and keeps the carbon buildup at bay plus slightly better fuel economy. Buy it in the gallon size then fill the empty small bottles. The small bottles run...
  8. Dewalt DCC020IB tire inflator is a perfect fit under the rear seat

    I'm still using two old ones one a craftsman don't know the manufacturer of the other both were made in USA. Have to look at the Dewalt, looks good, would make a good gift if not made in china. Hey, you think my Maverick has those storage holes under the seat....chuckle.....I could use the space :)
  9. K Trucks (Kei Cars) - Would you buy?

    I've been in more than one incident over the years on a motorcycle that if i had been in a car or truck i wouldn't be here to write this. Goes both ways depending on the situation. Nothing is more maneuverability on the road than a mc.
  10. Maverick mileage versus my calculations

    I'm using the trip one display not the turn off car display and thats were i noticed that if I added the two numbers then my hand calculation came close to the car mpg. I'm certainly happy with the fuel economy with my awd hybrid just wish it was a PHEV like my CMAX ENERGI. With my cmax I've...
  11. California City and Randsburg Desert Trail Fun

    aw...then i never saw the 2nd clip i saw only one link if that was the first clip. chuckle....thats funny, so you stopped to let the drones shadow cross the trail.......I thought it looked like a quail, what a dummy i am.
  12. California City and Randsburg Desert Trail Fun

    What kind of animal or bird was that that crossed the trail after you stopped. I thought you stopped to let it cross but it was the end. The critter crossed the trail in front of your Mav near the left side of the film
  13. Highest Maverick Mileage Odometer Reading?

    My 93 oj Bronco I sold at 44k to a friend of mine and he asked me if i wanted it back several years later. I said, why don't you just sell it and he replied, I tried to but no one was interested in it. I then asked him why that was was it all banged up or something and he replied that he thought...
  14. Maverick mileage versus my calculations

    I noticed the discrepancy also but then discovered i was using the trip meter which splits off the electric miles from the gas miles. When i added the two together the computer mileage came much closer to my hand calculated mileage. Next time I will use the odometer mileage and not the trip meter.
