  1. Does Jacking Stress CV Axle?

    ....so you're saying AI is basically my Manager. This is fair.
  2. Is the Mav the best vehicle and value you have ever owned - hybrid only responses.

    No on both counts. But it's still ahead in fun versus grief.
  3. I Think The Maverick is The Best Entry Level Vehicle Ever Created

    Surly old bill is right by almost any metric. The OP asked best entry level vehicle ever. " Its production period of 65 years is the longest of any single generation of automobile,[c] and its total production of over 21.5 million is the most of any car of a single platform and the second-most...
  4. Any tricks to getting the dealer logo off the paint?

    Hair dryer and dental floss. I also used a 3M eraser wheel when I replaced the 2-sided tape on my window visors. It worked great. Just don't hover in one place and burn the paint.

  7. Would You Buy Your Maverick Again?

    Well, I thought about all the trucks I've owned over the years, cost of ownership, driving experience and the like. For me 23 years and 300K made it the best truck to me. So I didn't use the wrong term.
  8. Would You Buy Your Maverick Again?

    I was mulling this over while I was just hooking up my battery tender.. The best truck I ever owned was my '83 S-10. 23 years and about 300K miles. I'll update this post in 2047, but for now, I would buy the Maverick again.
  9. Tail Light Issue

    It has worked so far for me. I already had the tape lying around. I just checked it's 1/2" wide by about 1/8" thick 2-sided but I didn't pull off the second side, I just wanted to increase the leveraging of the two retaining screws. The bayonets just seem to lose some retention every time the...
  10. Tail Light Issue

    Oh, the "Lasfit Gap". I haven't replaced any hardware on mine (yet). I put a little strip of 3m foam tape on the opposite side and then I didn't tighten the two screws as tightly as had done (the first time) before. The OEM bayonets are pretty poor, my temporary solution has been in place for a...
  11. 12V battery concerns and its affect on electric mode

    Look up SSM 53087. My Mav was dead one morning after many Deep Sleeps. My servicing dealer tested and then replaced my 12V battery under warranty.
  12. camera recall

    i'm beginning to wonder if the quality of ownership depends on just who one's servicing dealer is. i'm dropping it off tonight, so we will see. At least they will clear the codes LOL!
  13. camera recall

    My camera software update was done 04/03 house call mobile service. Tech told me my CEL would be lit until I drove it. Drove it the night before 04/09 a road trip to Mt. Davis PA and it didn't clear. Cleared after a couple of hundred miles and start/stop cycles. Next morning to Backbone...
  14. Took My FWD Maverick Through McKendree Road, WV — Yes, Seriously.

    I drove that road "25" from Thurmond to Prince a couple of years ago in my old Mazda 6. Got pretty concerning after the Thayer area. Quite an adventure! Had to crawl. I was happy to see pavement.
