For sure, it's scary to read so many "Another dead Maverick" post. If only the owner would have known about it, they might have wiggle the 12V wire or carry a jumper pack in the truck.
Although the issue could have easily been replicated in the EB model if the 12V battery was in the backseat...
My average summer 45mpg will no doubt take a hit. Its my 1st hybrid, but I'd be surpised to go lower than 30mpg though... I could be wrong.
It gets pretty cold in my area, I have a block heater and will be using it to minimize warm up time.
I'm positive the youtuber made a mistake. He first says the Maverick will have an IDENTICAL powertrain like the 2022 model, then says ecoboost has 280hp.
No regrets getting the hybrid model. I'd rather have better mileage than AWD+4K.
I tried my brother-in-law's EB. When you step on the gas, it feels like a slingshot, slight hesitation and then your flying. As for my hybrid, its pretty much instant acceleration, but top end isn't as fast.
When...
I didnt use the supplied fasteners, I used the B196 I had in my spare kit.

The dealer prices for Steelies are a bit too much for me... Before I make a purchase, can someone confirm these should fit correctly? What would you choose, 40 offset or 52? I know 40 is closer to stock, but it's about $30 CAD more than the 52 offset.
I don't think they know themselves. I was in the same situation and convinced myself they didn't order correctly... I asked multiple times for a VIN, but they didn't have it. 9.5 months after ordering, dealer called me and said it arrived.
Got mine from dealer, Ford Motocraft brand. I tried it, maybe I'm doing something wrong.. but I can't seem to get it right. The felt pen doesn't do anything, then I press on it and a blob comes out, now its too much. My Nissan pen was so much easier.
Depends what you'll be doing with it. Hybrid is absolutely worth it for the MPG, but its a "city truck". The Ecoboost is worth it for the AWD traction and 4K. but.. do you absolutely need AWD in the winter months? No.
I tried out my brother in-law's Ecoboost AWD the other day. The...
Wait, a Brake recall??? The thing that makes your vehicle stop?
Gone are any regrets I had in choosing the hybrid over the ecoboost. :cool:
Kidding... I would never go on a EB thread and troll. Glad you liked your EcoBoost + 4K with decent MPGs.
Am I missing something here??
I see a lot of, "Why doesn't Ford fix the engine issue instead of poking holes?" Who said there's an issue with the Maverick engines? There's nothing to fix on the engines (yet). In the event of an engine failure and oil happens to spills out, oil and fumes will...
My 1st hybrid. My only complaint its super loud outside when running electric mode. I get weird looks from pedestrians, like something is wrong under the hood. But loud electric AC is normal for hybrids.
Maple loving Canadian here, confirmed that my Maverick needs the recall too. Only place listed is on the Ford.ca recall site.. Not on my Ford Pass app nor on the NHTSA site. And for those who checked earlier, better check again. Recall appeared after rechecking.
