  1. 2026 XL — 4-button flip key with remote start

    Unless there was a change from 2025 to 2026, you can follow the guide from @Quest to program compatible fobs : https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/2025-xlt-remote-start-with-cheap-replacement-key-fob.72026/
  2. Putting Mabett products to a real test on The Dempster Highway to the Arctic Ocean!

    Be safe, friends who work contracts in Northern Quebec have told me that they can have blizzard conditions starting in September up there EDIT: I checked weather and Fall seems to be a lot milder out West than it is in Northern Quebec
  3. Putting Mabett products to a real test on The Dempster Highway to the Arctic Ocean!

    Looks like an awesome adventure! But isn't it pretty late in the season to start a trip like that, with a FWD truck on what looks like all-season highway tires? That looks like a 20+ day return trip, and it starts snowing REAL early up there
  4. ECO Mode ON/OFF experiment (with data) - Highway driving

    Eco doesn't really change hybrids' gearbox behavior because there's no such thing; it's just seamless. Eco makes the throttle less responsive, it cranks up regen and makes the HVAC less responsive. I like it for city driving because it feels close to one pedal driving. YMMV PS I feel sorry...
  5. 400 Watt inverter uses

    The light above the outlet flashing usually means that the inverter's breaker is tripped. Either your bike charger is drawing too much juice OR there's a mismatch between the current it's drawing vs what the inverter is expecting I guess I have a 20A lithium battery charger which should work...
  6. 400 Watt inverter uses

    Name isn't Glen, but you're welcome 😄 Noco plugs into 120v outlet, and the 12v output leads have clamps for the battery posts If you want to charge your power station you better avoid the 120v outlet, most of them don't like the modified sine wave output and they won't charge. Get a 12v...
  7. 400 Watt inverter uses

    Ours powers a Noco Genius 10 10 amp battery charger which recharges the camper's 100ah LFP battery if there isn't enough sun to recharge it with the solar panels. We had a few cloudy days last time, the truck charged the battery from 25% to 100% over about 8 hours ... it sounds like forever, but...
  8. Do dual piston calipers made a difference?

    I don't know how the piston area compares in the single vs dual piston calipers but often the dual pistons add up to a bigger area. Increasing the piston area in the calipers without also upgrading to a bigger master cylinder decreases the hydraulic leverage ratio. So, everything else being...
  9. My Hybrid Lobo mash up

    Looks great. You should've got your rockers and rear bumper painted at the same time as the front bumper
  10. Changing Blue Interior Trim Color

    OK @710 and @Tbone91, you two get a room or something 😂 OMG, those cars are such a maintenance nightmare. EVERYTHING is 10x more complicated 💀 And once you've worked on it, any new problems that pop up afterwards are now YOUR problem because you've done work on it. I wouldn't touch BMWs with a...
  11. Changing Blue Interior Trim Color

    Just remembered - the seats, armrest, upper dashboard and front part of the doors get the BAP treatment while everything else stays blue. That's part of the reason I didn't get BAP, didn't seem like a great value for a half-assed job on the interior PS: There are specialty paints for car...
  12. Changing Blue Interior Trim Color

    Whatever's blue stays blue with the BAP. Only the seats and other colored parts get changed to black
  13. welcome lights

    Does dark mode turn off all exterior lights, the dashboard, centre screen and all lighted switches on '25+? That would make a true "stealth generator" mode for camping ... 🤔
