Yep. I'm convinced the hybrid system itself is solid (based on my experience with previous vehicles as well as the Maverick). Ford just needs to fix 12v charging.

Looks good. Anybody who makes a special seat for their pup is ok in my book.

It's to compensate for the owner's tiny pen.... Oh sorry, I should just shut up now.

Thanks for coming out of the shadows—I had the feeling someone was lurking just out of sight 😉. Welcome to MTC. Sorry to hear about your '24 XLT, but your new Lariat looks great.

The mental game is the key to happiness 🙂

Agree it shouldn't matter until cold weather, but you have to ask yourself why would a tech not double check the oil spec when the VIN lookup returned a different value than that on the filler cap (and I assume the shop manual). I know oil changes are entry level work, but that inattention to...

Wallow in the sadness. Go for 1K! 😉

I haven't found it to obstruct my view, but I'm fairly short (although I have the driver's seat at the maximum height). Maybe it's more of an issue for taller people.

Maybe this will spark an uplifting discussion on how stoopid backup cameras (and maybe seat belts and self-adjusting brakes) are. Hoping against hope that it doesn't.

Hello and welcome! Nice looking truck.

Thanks for posting the pics and sharing your impressions. I don't think the Slate would be a good fit for me personally, but I love to see companies inovate, and I particularly like Slate's attempt to deliver an affordable, utilitarian, and modular vehicle.

Howdy, and welcome! Love the description of your location in your profile. I think you've got everything covered.🙂

As icegradner noted, the brakes feel a little different and take a lighter touch. Early Maverick hybrid drivers reported that the transition from regenerative to conventional braking was very rough and abrupt, but I've not found this to be the case with my '24. I suggest displaying the brake...

Seems like a big assumption that touch screens will necessarily be the UI of choice in 20 years. Maybe by then younger people will snicker at those ancient Millennials who express any reluctance to get the neural implant required to be part of the truly connected society, or at the eccentrics...

Clever solution. "Driving by Braille" is certainly an attention-grabbing title. 🙂

You might want to test drive a hybrid to help answer the question: "Which makes me happier, the extra acceleration or 10 more mpg?" With either version, I think you'll enjoy the improved gas mileage, ease of parking, etc. compared to the F-150. Good luck!

I've always thought that '55-'57 Chevies were some if the best looking cars ever.

I'm so old I got the Dagmar reference. I was just a young lad when she was on television, but I'd started to notice certain features on...cars.

Looks good. I know you're glad to be (mostly) done fooling with this. Now it's time to enjoy your Maverick.

Floor mats. Carpet in a truck makes as much sense as carpet in a bathroom.
