  1. What does everyone use their 110v outlet for?

    Mostly for powering my laptop for work at remote jobsites. It's not uncommon to have no utility power, a lot of sites only have 24vdc power available for their site equipment. Sometimes it's while I'm in the truck working, and I have a tray that slides over the steering wheel to hold the...
  2. Traction control

    Yeah that's when I've heard it makes sense to turn it off. When you're actually stuck...meaning not going anywhere. At those times you might benefit from spinning the tires, to power out of a situation, instead of the traction control stepping in and reducing the spin. But otherwise agree with...
  3. My First Withdrawal

    Man I hate that, big pet peeve. Embarrassed to admit it, but I now write down some measurements after I think I've got the seat position nailed down. Like from brake pedal to front of seat and brake pedal to seam on seat shoulder. Because after I readjust it blind after someone else uses it...
  4. How bright are the Maverick headlights?

    I think the basis of the illegality is just the simple law that states one can't have low beams and high beams on simultaneously. So they don't meet that requirement due to their wild technology and I guess changing those laws are a slow arduous process. Technology always seems to out pace law...
  5. How bright are the Maverick headlights?

    Adaptive Beam headlights. They're in use overseas. Pretty wild stuff. The beams will reshape themselves. So for example if a car is coming towards you, it will lower and reshape the beam to not hit the driver, but it will still illuminate the other side of the road with a high beam shape. US...
  6. Here’s kind of a weird take: the Ford Maverick is embarrassing.

    I've had some neighbors make some snide comments about my Maverick. I think it's rooted in jealousy. Sure, it doesn't come close to their full size trucks' capacities. But like most, they hardly ever use them. I think what irritates them most is I have 2 brand new vehicles, one being a truck and...
  7. Buying used mav with magnaflow, need some info

    Can't say I'm familiar with Magnaflow's offerings for the truck, but I've never heard of a vehicle needing tuned for an axle back or a cat back. From previous experience turbo backs, or any change to the downpipe, on most vehicles often require a tune.
  8. QUICKER OIL CHANGE

    On top of protection from debris, the lower engine covers on cars are a functional part of the cooling system. They create a greater pressure differential between the front of the car (outside the radiator and AC coil) and the engine bay. This increases the amount of air flow that comes through...
  9. Who uses a “Foam Cannon” for pressure washers?

    Like others have said, it doesn't replace a hand wash, you gotta get in there. It mostly just speeds up the process a little for me. I foam the whole car, wait 5 minutes, then a rinse. This initial rinse just helps knock of the heavy stuff. Then I'll foam one side of the car and wash it with a...
