  1. HYBRID 12V Battery Mystery SOLVED

    Good day It sure does sound like you are getting a better charge. It would be interesting to see what your battery is resting at, once the truck shuts down completely...then you would know for sure where the battery charge is at. Good idea, swapping out those halogen bulbs before...
  2. Random Maverick Photos of the Day Thread! 📸

    Good day My wife and I were out and about on Father's Day...at a little dam in the middle of no-where, for these photos. She caught a 2 lb Northern Pike and 2.5 lb Walleye! Both released again, like we normally do. A wonderful day out together, just the way we like it. Andy...
  3. HYBRID 12V Battery Mystery SOLVED

    Good day I have an early 2025 Mav hybrid with awd and 4k pkg and have the original agm battery in our truck. So I have been monitoring my battery voltage when driving and doing shorter runs for appts etc to and from the city. 10 km hwy into the city, city speed driving and then 10 kms hwy...
  4. EV Deep Dive - Ford/Toyota

    Good day An interesting and also informative video, from beginning to end as to how much change is needed and is also going on right now. Another generational change is taking place, it seems...like going from sail power to coal power, or horse and buggy to ice-powered modes of transport...
  5. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    Good day You have posed an issue which I have no experience in...nanny insurance plugs where you give any privacy away to an insurance company to save some cash. You can see I have an issue with anything of this nature, and would not allow it unless legally required. I don't have...
  6. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    Hello I think you are confusing the term OBD2. This refers to the single OBD port under your dash, normally drivers side. There was a previous version of OBD, but standardization (the 90's, I believe) between all major manufacturers the port is now called OBD2. There is only 1 port...
  7. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    Good day I did my research before I did my install of the camera system. I would recommend everyone who is installing a device to go and watch several videos online on doing a camera install. Watch several, and make sure you see one that warns you about the airbags in the pillars...
  8. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    Good day I don't think any manufacturer can produce something for the masses that can with stand the type of heat you experience. I would suggest the simple addition of an insulated and reflective sunshield may be your best bet! I use a Mabett front windshield cover, and I then tuck the...
  9. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    Good day, @Big-Foot Your story and reasoning of young dip-sh☆☆☆....using age of other drivers as a get out of jail free card excuse, screw the truth, is believable. Old people can be douche-bags as well, just for the record... trust no one! So, commiserating completed, here is what I...
  10. ❌ Rear Window Weatherstrip Splitting Already? Anyone Else?

    Good day I am one of the people that has posted on one of the other threads, and we did have our rear window trims replaced back in the beginning of May. I brought it in, they looked at it, ordered the parts for both sides as well as for a whistling drivers window seal and made an appt to...
  11. Is there a way to monitor the hybrid battery pack charge level?

    Good day I don't believe there is, unless you buy an add-on device to plug in and track it. If you are driving, the blue(?) brackets in your power meter window let's you know how much you have remaining and how hard you step on the go-pedal before turning your ice back on. The brackets...
  12. Post your Maverick next to ridiculously large trucks - photos thread

    Yeah, I worked with some guys like that...blue-pill boys who where always compensating for other short-comings in their life Andy
  13. Deer Strike

    Glad you are okay, Cherokee...and the truck isn't too badly broken...and I feel your Mitsy pain. We rented one...once. We called it the crippler after 45 minutes of driving. I know it is better then walking... Never again...my back, tail bone, psiatica etc, etc etc can't take junk vehicles...
  14. My Baby Has Been Wounded!

    A dang shame, and another person worthy of a clubbing...and I don't mean for a few drinks and dancing like you have no clothes on. ;-) I read this as I guard my truck in a Michael's parking lot...women get a wild look when driving here, and some guys get the wild look when leaving.... I...
  15. HYBRID 12V Battery Mystery SOLVED

    Thank you for all your clear answers, even though it does have me scratching my head. I have the tow pkg, but my Hitch light is plugged into my 4 pin trailer plug. I know I have had one in the past, and it is a simple 4 pin trailer plug tester. Inexpensive, cheaper even then a simple...
