The deep sleep mode and no interior lights on cab entry, no longer function as they have for the past two years.
I took my 2023 Hybrid in to the dealer for two recalls and when I got it back, I discovered that my interior lights come on when I open the door and the truck no longer goes into...
Thatās very believable. Here in Northern California, the local Ford dealership wants $250.00 to change the oil in my 23 Hybrid - that doesnāt include the 10.25% sales tax.
Nice write up. But comparing the cheapest ass Tesla to the cheapest ass truck really isnāt very useful. One is a truck and the other a very utilitarian electric car.
Well said. My Maverick cost me about 10 cents per mile (super expensive gas in my neck of the woods) while my Tesla cost me 20 cents per mile (super expensive electricity in my neck of the woods)
Took me about 30 minutes to install the actuator and wiring on the XL I had. Hardest thing was getting to the connection that is basically under the spare tire.
This is where I mounted my front plate bracket. Held on with a heavy duty zip tie. I no longer own this truck, but I mounted it the same way on my 2023. Zero issues even on the hottest California days.
One problem you may have is buying a new vehicle and trying to bring it into California. You will at minimum have to pay CA sales taxes. DMV might not allow it because it doesnāt have 7,501 miles on it too. We have some strange rules here.
Good luck š
Not buyerās remorse. My little truck has way too many things wrong with it for being as nee as it is. I donāt think it will last ten years without spending much time in the shop.
