  1. AWD mud performance

    Everyone has different preferences, but if you want to keep your MPGs up and road noise down and you do mostly road driving, you can stick with the standard all season tires and carry a set of chains for potential mud excursions, it will outperform pretty much every tire you could buy for a...
  2. 2025 Hybrid Tow MPG with 1800 lbs 23mpg and then 3600+ lbs 11.5 mpg- 600 miles RT

    It wasn't the weight but the aero in this case, that's a parachute and the trucks frontal area is too small to cut a hole big enough for that to fit through easily. Great trip stats though!
  3. What have you fit in your Maverick?

    Ok this is the best and craziest thread I've read on hauling yet. I read the text first, and I was like 32' ladder ok, yeah, hay bales, ok yeah, etc. Was not expecting to see the extension ladders sticking out of the bed of the truck or the hay bales on a hitch carrier though! Absolute...
  4. AC Hygene

    This is probably a sensible idea to dry off the evaporator after each use to extend the coil cleaning intervals, not sure about the lysol spray - but it's nothing I've ever done myself. Your vehicle, your rules though - if the passenger doesn't like it, walking is good cardio.
  5. First oil change 2025 hybrid

    Longer drain intervals and older engine oil reduce engine friction and wear due in large part to ZDDP deposition on surfaces. Each oil change "washes" these antiwear film deposits off, leading to a spike in surface scarring and wear metals immediately after each and every oil change...
  6. Farley on possibility of Maverick production moving to U.S. - when financial numbers are compelling & can retain affordability

    Quite possible you're right, the big thing this earnings season is no one knows anything, most companies have, or will, cancel forward guidance; uncertainty is the buzzword of the era. Right now the "best" or safest moves seem to be paralysis. They're throwing out stuff "like this could...
  7. Farley on possibility of Maverick production moving to U.S. - when financial numbers are compelling & can retain affordability

    Makes sense, I think it's been too strong of a seller to lose their market advantage in the segment simply due to taxes! Once I stumbled upon the Maverick I was really blown away by the value, it would be a shame to lose that, although I'm sure there's a big challenge to keeping the price down...
  8. Pushed the towing limits

    I don't have my Mav yet, but towing is one of things i'll be doing a lot of with it. Currently the highest payload vehicle I've ever owned (~4500 lbs.) is a unibody - Transit 350HD; and it's done a lot of towing at (and slightly above) its factory suggestion of 7,500 lbs as well. I really was...
