  1. Considering This Travel Trailer....

    I think you are going to have to stick to 15-16 foot trailers to stay comfortably within weight limits.
  2. August 29 build week members - update 9/22/22

    I checked this morning, my build week moved from 8/8/22 to 8/15/22. I realize it's not the 8/29 build week you mentioned, but I bet we're all going to keep getting moved back. XLT, EB, AWD
  3. Velocity Blue Orders Scheduled

    XLT, EB, AWD, Velocity Blue, scheduled for August 8th.
  4. Drop In Bed Liner Question

    I will be having a DIBL installed as a dealer-installed option. My XLT Ecoboost is supposed to have one Rear Cubby Storage and Ten Pickup Box Tie-Downs. Will the bed liner block access to any of those?
  5. i ordered a maverick before the price increase, what now?

    So, in my case, we signed a contract and paid $1000 deposit on Dec. 29 but the order date in Ford's system is Jan. 3, 2022. It was a holiday weekend, maybe that's why it didn't show until then? Anyway, we should be price protected to the MSRP sticker price on Jan. 3 which we agreed to. Is that...
  6. Stuck at the Car Wash

    I totally agree with you. It adds needless complication and failure points to the brake system.
  7. Stuck at the Car Wash

    Okay, stupid question as I am still waiting for my build date. What is the brake hold feature in the first place? Is it on Eco boost and hybrid models?
  8. Maverick completely dead no power!

    Search the site for threads on the wiring harness in hybrids. Lot's of people posting here about it. It's a known problem for Ford.
  9. I think I am glad it's taken so long for them to schedule my build

    Dash noises, windshield noises, fluttering hoods, holes in fuel tanks, recalls, wiring harnesses, yada yada yada. Maybe by my build date in August (yeah, like that's going to happen without being pushed off) they will be incorporating some fixes in the production line to some of these problems.
  10. Full size spare

    If the full sized spare was a constrained item, maybe it isn't now(?) I left in on my EB XLT with AWD (dropped the SIBL in the spring) and now I have a VIN and a "build date" in early August. Ordered late December, by the way.
  11. Not Boomer Friendly

    Boomer here. I plan to go with a streaming service through my phone (I have a good data plan, so no worries there.) But when I'm home, you can keep your MP3's and streaming, it's vinyl all the way, baby! With CD's as a secondary source for music I don't have on vinyl, I listen thru a vintage...
  12. New Maverick Recall: 2.5 Hybrid Engine Fire Hazard [Updated w/ Safety Recall Notice to Dealers]

    So what kind of mileage will EB owners see before they start dealing with carbon issues?
  13. Ford can remove the Auto Start/Stop at the factory?

    Somewhat related to this topic...still waiting on the truck so I haven't seen an owner's manual...can auto stop-start be temporarily disabled by dashboard controls?
  14. Factory Installed Drop In Liner Vs Dealer Installed Drop In Liner

    We have an XLT EB AWD on order (order date 12/30/21) with full size spare, floor liners and mats and, I thought, a drop in bed liner. A few months back the dealer called and asked if we wanted to drop the SIBL due to constraints, so we did and asked him to add the DIBL. This week we got a VIN...
  15. This is the e-mail coming at 3PM today (6/29) to unscheduled order holders

    We didn't get the email but today we did get a VIN and a production date of mid August. In Spring we dropped the spray in bed liner which was constrained. We asked the dealer to add a drop in bed liner instead. Well, looking at the order online today it seems the dealer didn't add the drop in...
  16. Some 22MY Mavericks may get pushed to MY23

    I see your point, but for me, I think it's a non issue. My current plan is to drive it into the ground, as I have my current Ranger (with a Mazda B2300 nameplate.) So resale value won't be a problem...unless it's a lemon and I try to sell or trade it. Then, it's a whole other ball game.
  17. Dragon flies

    On eastern Long Island, NY, we have a problem with deer landing on our front bumpers and hoods. Hope it doesn't happen if I ever get the Mav!
  18. 2022 Maverick Final Scheduling Cut Off Date = August 4

    I spoke with my dealer yesterday and he told me that if we don't make MY 2022, our order will automatically roll over to MY 2023. But I thought I saw in another thread that if you don't make 2022, your order will be cancelled and you must re-submit an order, and for those people, the order bank...
  19. The Cold, Hard Truth

    Ordered Dec. 29, so of course we haven't heard anything. XLT, EB, AWD, full size spare, drop in bed liner, floor liner with carpeted mats only options. At this point, it might be preferable to get rolled to 2023 model if some of the glitches are fixed in the new model year. But with two...
  20. Disappointing 31.5 mpg on 850 miles trip: LA-Arizona-LA

    I read in another thread that high ambient temperatures can decrease hybrid MPG. The truck relies on the gas engine more in high temps.
