  1. What did you do with your previous vehicle

    I bought my 2018 Honda Civic EX Hatchback (1.5T/CVT) for $18,000 as a CPO in 2019 with 27K miles on it. I traded it in for $20,000 with 57K miles on it. It was heavily modified, but I have a friend that is going to buy it (dealer is asking $23K) strip all the performance parts off and swap in...
  2. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    To: New exhaust and hood struts. Had ceramic tint installed on the front windows to match the rears. Ordered new wheels and tires in anticipation of lowering the truck. Removed the “AWD” badge from the tailgate. With: Drove to two of my favorite breweries to collect some special glassware and beer.
  3. Sparco Terra wheel

    Weird. Mine came with black center caps and no decals. I bought black lugs to make it match the cap/car. I’m sure you could probably buy them from Sparco if you opted for that color scheme.
  4. SLWKRT (Slow Kart): My attempt at self-control

    To each their own. I’m coming from a full bolt on turbo Civic. So clearly I have a preference and tolerance. Since I’m not building this motor, I at least wanted to be able to hear it. The tone is good and there’s minimal drone. The next proper project with be a 2.0T Accord. That engine will...
  5. SLWKRT (Slow Kart): My attempt at self-control

    I don’t hear it, but maybe that’s me. Luckily tips can be changed out. If it does end up bothering me I may cut and convert to a turndown.
  6. Sparco Terra wheel

    Had the rally bronze on my Civic. Absolutely love that wheel. Especially with the black center cap and lug nuts. Was very tempted to buy them for the Maverick too.
  7. SLWKRT (Slow Kart): My attempt at self-control

    No muffler is 100% the way to go. It is just the right amount of growl. Thanks again to @MRTperformance.
  8. Never driven a Maverick - thoughts on competition

    I’ve owned a Maverick for 500 miles. So far it is my favorite. Gas mileage, options, ride comfort, and styling are fantastic. I have had a Titan, Titan XD, and Frontier (P4X), and Xterra. The Frontier/Xterra will always be a favorite to me. The Maverick narrowly edged it out (when I remove my...
  9. SLWKRT (Slow Kart): My attempt at self-control

    So about that self-control… A big thanks to @MRTperformance for squeezing me in Friday. Going to get the exhaust done so I can actually hear the truck. Also getting the front tint to match the rears later that day. Also, my brother has a 17 Escape and is in need of new tires. So my factory...
  10. SLWKRT (Slow Kart): My attempt at self-control

    Drove from the north side of Metro Detroit to Grand Rapids and back. Started the day with a full tank and filled up to 35psi before I left. 325 miles and 29 mpg. I have to say I’m impressed. I did not expect it to nail the testing estimates.
  11. Hello from Metro Detroit

    Hello everyone. Just picked up my 2022 Ford Maverick XLT this week. Loved them since the day they were announced. Finally found one with the specs I was looking for and a price that was "reasonable". Hard to turn down a 2.0T, AWD, heated seats, remote start, and tow package in a daily driven MI...
