  1. Ford talking about Maverick

    I was out and about yesterday and on one of the various places I read up on Maverick stuff I saw that on Sunday at 7pm eastern time that Ford was planning a livestream to talk about Maverick. I marked it on my calendar, since that's a new thing and I wanted to hear what they have to say. What...
  2. Shifting to park while driving

    So, from what I have read the rotary style shifter will default to park when the Maverick is shut down. What occurs if there is a loss of power while driving? Its an electronic transmission, will it try to drop into park? I assume there are safety features in the design to prevent that, but...
  3. The odds of getting a build date

    I checked on my odds of getting a build date today in the most scientific way possible. I consulted the magic eight ball. Looks like I won't be getting that email today after all.
  4. I wonder what changes 2023 will bring

    Looking at how things are going, and the fact that my Nov 1 order will be constrained for several reasons I'm pretty much resigned to ending up with a 2023. If only I would have ordered a few days earlier I could have gotten the first edition hybrid i actually wanted. (Dealer took the order in...
  5. Changing default drive mode

    Just wondering if anyone has found a way to change the default drive mode from normal to eco (or any other mode for that matter). One thing I like about my current car (a 2015 Kia Forte) is that I was able to put it in eco mode and just leave it there. I thought I read that folks were trying...
  6. Purpose of Underbody Plastic Shields?

    I was reading in another thread about changing the oil involving removing underbody covers, which plug gasket to use, etc. I didn't want to derail that conversation, but was wondering about the covers themselves. I know on the FX4 there are skid plates that protect vital components from...
  7. Best way to black out wheels?

    For as long as I have been driving i have just rolled on whatever was there as far as the looks of my vehicles go. This time I am planning on keeping the truck pretty much forever so I actually care. I want the Maverick to look good, with whatever mods I do lasting as long as I do. One of the...
  8. Suggestions for Ford

    I had a thought this morning while waiting for the coffee to work its magic and reading our forums. There are a few accounts here like @fordvideoguy and @Ford Motor Company that either represent Ford or at very least work there. Now, we are a pretty friendly and reasonable bunch for the most...
  9. Worst car/truck features

    Talking about Maverick features this morning got me thinking. Well, maybe the coffee helped,, but ill take it. Over the years I have had quite a few vehicles. I assume most of you here have as well. I was thinking about "features" in cars that I had that I didn't really care for. In this case...
  10. Difference between 17 and 18 inch wheels

    I never really paid much attention to tire sizes, just using whatever came on my car. Since I have been researching Maverick I realized that there are two different rim/tire size combinations sold as stock. Everything I have read when wondering why seems to say that the 17 inch tires will have...
  11. Maverick size comparison with Frontier

    When I was doing my research I noticed that the 2004 - 2021 Frontier crew cab short bed has almost the same dimensions as the Maverick, from the outside at least. The cab is roughly the same size with about 6" more bed. Obviously there are a ton of differences between the two, but for those...
  12. Seems everone is getting in on "market adjustments"

    Yep, even Target is making market adjustments. Must be a turkey shortage.
  13. Why did you choose the Maverick?

    I know we all have our own reasons for choosing Maverick over other vehicles. Assuming of course you have already made your choice and aren't just coming here looking for info. If you are hopefully this post helps you make your choice. When I got into the market for my next vehicle I had a lot...
  14. Wondering if I should get a tonneau or not

    I have had a few trucks over the years, never had a tonneau cover as I didn't have the money at the time. I am considering getting one for my Maverick, for a combination of looks and keeping my stuff dry if it happens to rain on me while I have gear in the bed. Yes, I could (and likely will)...
  15. Ford no longer taking hybrid 1st edition orders

    I ordered a hybrid 1st edition on Friday. Stopped in today to get a signed slip with build and price on it like I had been advised here. Found out that when their person tried to send in my order it bounced because they are no longer doing hybrid 1st edition. I changed it to a lariat hybrid...
  16. Well, I didn't plan to order a truck yesterday...

    I have been doing a good amount of research, and a lot of YouTube watching, in preparation for replacing my little Kia with a pickup next year. We went to the local Ford dealer yesterday to drop off my daughters Explorer for scheduled maint and decided to take a look at the area 51 color in...
