It's a great feature but nothing new. Ford station wagons had the 2 way tailgate back in the 60s!
Per the video - it looks like the Maverick driver did a much better job of keeping momentum up than the Wrangler driver.
I've owned many Ford products over the years (all of them served me well), but the Maverick is the first one I purchased new. Previous new purchases were Mazda, Honda and Toyota. So far, I'm very happy with my Maverick.
The ticket has already been taken care of and was a major PITA. I didn’t want to get points on my license (and pay more insurance for the next 3 years), so I retained a lawyer from the Virginia county where I received the ticket. He advised I get a record of my license from NC DMV (it’s clean)...
I'm questioning how they were able to track me down 20 miles down the road. I suppose it could have been a traffic camera that grabbed my license plate number.
Earlier this year I was driving through a rural part of Virginia to visit my daughter which is known to have speed traps and got a ticket. The speed limit frequently changes from 35 to 55 etc. on this stretch of road. At the time, my wife’s iphone was connected by wire and we were using google...
I received the recall notice for my 24 XL but have yet to experience any camera freezes. I was at the dealer this week and saw a half dozen 24 XLTs sitting on the lot that obviously can't be sold.
My current average reading (AWD 4k tow) is 28.6. It's a little better in warmer weather - around 29.5. I live in the foothills of NC and am mostly easy on the gas in normal mode.
Nice, thanks for sharing! I'm planning to do some month (or more) long trips in my Maverick when I retire next year. Did you stay in hotels, camp, or RV (did you tow a trailer)? I got the 4k tow package so I can tow a smallish travel trailer.
I know someone that has a Bronco Sport with the Ecoboost 2.0 that had similar symptoms. It turned out to be the battery. It was covered under warranty.
I wouldn't have bought an XL if it didn't have cruise control and the power amenities that come standard on just about every car nowadays. I added CP360 mainly to get power mirrors.
I think a case could be made for a no frills "work truck" configuration for fleets like is available in larger...
Gas particulate filter for emissions. Another reason I'm glad I got my 24 when I did.

I may have considered a hybrid with 4k tow if it was available, but I definitely would have paid significantly more if I waited until 2025. I don't do enough city driving to make it worth getting a hybrid. I'm glad I got my 2024 when I did! I'm not a fan of the new front fascia styling and don't...
