Awesome numbers! Any plans to take it to the track? I'd be curious to see what it'll run in the 1/4.
The fact that Ford themselves designed and builds the 8F35 and puts it into an AWD truck with a 4000lb tow capacity and a 280 ft-lbs engine tells me that the stated 258 ft-lbs capacity for the...
You are right to express concern about the durability of any fire extinguisher mount and that is one of the main reasons I designed this one for under the rear seat. If all else fails, it is at least contained under the seat. However, not all aftermarket mounts are metal. I have one in my...
Well sure, but this is a forum for the FITS anchors and the only one not under the seat is the one on back of the center console. I may design a 2.5lb bottle mount for that one in the future. Personally I prefer larger fire extinguishers in my vehicles, but I think a single FITS anchor might...
Currently working on an under seat "5lb" (~8-9lb gross) 3D printable fire extinguisher mount. I'll probably share the final version on my Printables account if anyone's interested.
There will be a driver and passenger side version. Might work on a mount for a 2.5lb as well.

I thought the new color was the (already released) light blue...? Are there rumors of another one?
As I understand it, the 300T is a kit that'll be sold through Ford dealers (and likely primarily installed by those dealers). I don't think it'll be an option per se when ordering a Maverick, as...
I've started goofing around with designing things for the FITS system and I couldn't help but notice the vertical slot in the front of the FITS receptacle is about the perfect size to fit a single section of standard tactical-style rail mount. So, I ran with it. These are almost completely...
Hey everyone. I've been a Maverick owner for a week, so forgive me if these are dumb questions. I'd like to pull fuse #11 to disable telematics, but I'd still like to have the option to get software updates. Does the Ford app notify you when an update is available for your vehicle? Is it as...
Nice! I am a huge fan of BBF swapped Foxes. Sadly, the aftermarket for those is dying out as everybody seems to be jumping on the Coyote swap train. I have a roller 351W sitting on an engine stand in my garage that'll go in the car someday, although the aftermarket for that swap is dying off...
It did not. It was a 2009 AWD SEL that I bought in cash in 2018 because at the time my wife and I were trying to do the Dave Ramsey thing :sneaky: In hindsight, it was a terrible decision because those early Flexes (Flexi?) were very unreliable and I would have been better off financing a...
Funny story about blue- my wife has owned 4 cars since I met her, all blue. The car I traded in for this Lobo was a blue Flex. I honestly didn't want another blue car in the family, but IMO it was the "right" color of the options the Lobo came in. I'm a bright color guy so the black, white or...
Morning everyone.
When Ford released the Maverick for '22, I thought, "hey, that's a pretty cool idea". When they revealed the Lobo last year, I thought, "that's my next vehicle". Well, after almost a year of excruciating waiting, that day finally came last Thursday, and I drove home with my...
Probably so that it can always be engaged and ready to accelerate from a stop or low speed. Older clutch-style AWD systems that don't engage the rear wheels until the fronts start to slip during acceleration tend to hesitate and shudder in slick conditions. These newer systems that take a more...
Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I'd be curious to see someone do this with the Lobo and Tremor to see if those behave differently.
Bump for this. I saw on the official SEMA schedule that they were going to have another reveal this morning but I haven't heard a peep about it anywhere on social media. Was it a typo?
