We're not leaving until next weekend, hopefully by then it will be even colder here in Michigan and warmer in Florida. Just to make sure we get some good average MPG figures there, we'll stay for the whole month and report back.
I think the weather or temperature has a big influence on MPG. Rather than wait for it to warm up here in Michigan to find out if that is true, we're going to head for Florida and find out.
My Maverick didn't/doesn't have a seatbelt chime. It just mutes the radio until you put the seatbelt on. I like that a lot better than having the car/truck nagging at you to put the seatbelt on.
The report that Ford F1 Truck just attached above is what you want. Some dealerships might not give their salesmen access to that report, so you might have to talk to the sales manager there. Good luck.
The manual (p185) says that the temporary neutral is so you can shut the engine off. Do you have to use it, say at a car wash, if you just leave the engine running and are being dragged/pushed through the car wash? I guess the hybrid engine would shut off, but wouldn't it still roll through...
Ford has a hot wire running back to the tailgate with a connector on it, and they even put a wire in the glove box with a connector on it to plug into that wire. You'll be all set.

I got an e-mail today from Ford about my delivery experience with their dealer and dealer salesman, and the last question they had was what could Ford do to improve their service. I told them they should schedule every MTC member that ordered in June & July, and get those trucks built for the...
That is what mine did too. It had switched from UP to NS and went through Cincinnati and finally stopped in Walbridge (Toledo). It stayed there until Friday morning when they delivered it to Wayne Assembly. I went down there and looked for it and there were tons of Mavericks there. They of...
No you kind of have to visualize the trip in your mind. Someone on here plotted it out on a map which was nice. Too bad someone doesn't come up with an app like Flight Aware so you could watch it move, but then trains move pretty slow so it might no be as fun as watching a 757.
It is on their vehicle visibility report. Might need to ask the sales manager, depending on the dealer. You'll need your order # and maybe VIN # to get it, but I think they can get it with just their order #. Then click on the TRACKERS above and follow the directions for the various RR...
Some of the details are in my signature below. After it was shipped I got the railcar number from my dealer's visibility report and was able to track it with the various trackers here. It was on Union Pacific at the Mexico Arizona border, where it set for a few days. From there it went to...
