A year ago today, I got an XLT, AWD 4k tow when someone declined their order. I really wanted a hybrid, so, as much as I really loved my Mav, when the order banks opened in Sept, I place an order for the hybrid. Well, 4 weeks ago today, 48 weeks to the day after I got my Eco, I became the proud...
This is funny. I traded my 22 Maverick XLT, Lux pkg, AWD with 4k tow package. When I bought it, the sticker price was $30,435. I traded it on March 31, but before they could sell it, they had to remove a few things to put on my new one (tonneau cover, dash cam), so I didn’t see it for sale on...
After 6 1/2 months, my Alto Blue hybrid XLT showed up today. They really screwed up the order, as I had ordered the lux pkg and Copilot 360. Didn't have either. Got them to throw in a few things to make up for it though - spray-in bed liner, front window tints, and trailer hitch, plus they are...
Three years ago, I'd had my new Hyundai Tucson for about 2 months and some idiot rear-ended me in stop-and-go road construction traffic. Damage, about $1500. Well, today, after almost six months of owning my Maverick the same damned thing happened again. Fortunately, the only damage this time...
Copied this from Facebook: Ford Model-T Truck hauling 8,000 pounds of hay down a paved country road in 1921. The dried fodder seems to overwhelm the small truck, yet the driver gamely travels along. Model Ts were popular for transporting harvest crops. They had earned a tough reputation among...
I don't know why, but I thought you needed Copilot 360 to have the auto high beam function. Was I surprised this weekend. Due to Hurricane Ian, my girlfriend couldn't fly into Orlando, so I had to pick her up in Ft Lauderdale. The only night driving I had done since I got my Mav was local with...
I wanted to buy a Hybrid, but since the order banks were closed when I first started looking, I ended up with the 2.0 EB. I love it. But, I still had this desire for a Hybrid. When the order banks just opened last week, I made the order for an XLT hybrid. How many of you have changed from an Eco...

A US Freight Rail Crisis Threatens More Supply Chain Chaos
August 30, 2022
Federal regulators and the White House have been scrambling to prevent poor service and a possible strike from jamming up a vital...
I was just reading on another forum about an issue when opening the door, and the Mav going into Park. I like this feature, but this post got me thinking. Sometimes, you may find yourself wanting to have the door open while slowly moving forward. To be honest, I can’t think of a reason now, but...
