Happy New Year - the Year of the Maverick:) The Maverick has recently won numerous accolades & awards from the press - and 2026 will bring new & prospective owners to the forum. Any advice for them? I’ll start: 1. Learn to use the search function. **hit the little google icon next to “search”...

Ford will once again build an F1 engine after a long absence from the sport. Very fast Hybrid this time around! I’m going to be a F1 fan in 2026 for the first time ever:)

I hear plenty of referrals to use Blackstone, and I have a kit from them I’m about to send in. However, I don’t like how they seem to always tell folks to extend their oil change frequency. I can figure my oil change frequency best myself - I’m the driver & a big boy. Not fat though. I just...

Not sure if an EB owner like myself can post a thread in the Hybrid sub forum? Also not sure if the Toyota latest Hybrid Gen belongs here either? But anyway, here goes:

Would you buy a Kei truck? Probably $17k-$22k?

Starting this year (2025), Top Tier gas will start changing to Top Tier+…completing the transition by 2027. Some Top Tier stations are already offering the Top Tier+ in their most expensive grade. By 2027, all grades will be Top Tier+ and OEM owners manuals will reflect the new requirement...

My 2025 EB “Trip 1” has not been reset since my purchase back in June. 1386 miles, 20.9 mpg, and 74hrs 29mins. Oh wait - make that 74hrs 30mins… While in “accessory mode” today (engine off) - I noticed my time was still ticking away. See pics below…74hrs 29mins & then 74hrs 30mins (a minute...

You’ve heard the expression of “putting lipstick on a pig”? How about “putting overalls on a princess”? Going to replace my pretty but damaged body color Lobo rear bumper with a black one to finish the look.

Could this fit in the Maverick engine bay? Currently used in the Lincoln Nautilus with a combined HP of 310. Maybe 360 HP with the “Big Turbo” from the 300T Ford Performance Maverick?

Announcement expected at the SEMA Show next week in Vegas:)

A few weeks ago I posted that my oil cap smelled of gasoline during my 1000mi break in oil change. The consensus was “relax - it is normal”. I relaxed. Until today. I noticed a TSB for oil dilution caused by the high pressure fuel delivery system for EB’s built from 10/24 to 5/25. My build date...

My Lobo allows me to disable the seatbelt alerts for the rear seat. Is this a new feature for 2025 - or do previous years also have this option?

Does jacking a tire off the ground put stress on a CV axle? AI tells me “Yes” - especially on a compromised CV axle…. Maybe I should rotate my tires less often than Ford recommends? Maybe the Tremor’s axles are designed differently to handle the droop of having a tire hanging off the ground...

Just fyi…Local body shop to replace my rear bumper that I smushed. My Progressive Insurance has $1000 deductible - so I’m not going to make a claim & pay the additional $300.

I cut off my muffler to tailpipe. Soundclip below. Edit - very slow to load… High idle sounds fartier than it did sitting in driver seat. Tomorrow I need to cut another foot or so off the pipe and the install a Borla catback after walking to Home Depot for more sawzall blades. The second...

I’m thinking you’ll only get this message if you attempt to give your EB engine “the beans” during break-in period? Not recommended or allowed by the cheeky Ford ECU it seems. Forum Member who hasn’t posted in years took this pic btw.

Tim Bartz is a fellow forum member & posts an informative “Maverick Monday” video almost every week fyi. Good stuff: Buy a Lobo at his dealer & mention this video for $4500 off? Not sure if I heard that right…

A few weeks back I noticed a stamping that looked like a stylish Maverick Logo. Made it my forum avatar because it looked neat. Did not know what vehicle it was from or where on the vehicle. Until today - F100Lobo showed a picture as he stripped the plastic trim under his back seat. There it...

My success rate at finding the “mode buttons” on the steering wheel without looking is maybe 20%. However, while applying some abrasive tape to my door sills - I decided to put a piece on my “mode buttons”. I now expect my success rate to approach 100%!

Ford recommends I change my oil every 10,000 miles & only use Lobo Mode at the track. I know the effects of a 10,000 mile OCI, but what are the effects of driving in Lobo Mode off the track? I do not plan on taking my Lobo to the track. But my daily driving has twisty turnys & a world class...
