Still haven’t been able to update my radios software and dealer was no help, i try to connect to my wifi with the closest I can get to it (which is about 100 feet away) and the connection it does get is just not strong enough I guess, it drops the connection every few minutes and then just...

Looks like you have the stock Pirelli tires on there, that would most likely be a big part of your struggle to get traction, they’re ok for light snow but beyond that they struggle for traction

Enjoyed a day out on the trails today with the maverick, still surprises me the type of obstacles that this little pickup can overcome

Also have to take into account altitude when talking about turbo engines, generally they don’t like to run on anything less than 87 above 5000 feet and unfortunately what you tend to get at gas stations above 5000 feet is the less than acceptable 86 octane or lower

Personal preference, but also have to take into account road debris, never know when some idiot in front of you is gonna have something drop off the back of their truck and puncture your oil pan

So little update, I had to order the entire engine shield in order to get the ptu vent as they don’t sell that by itself, didn’t think much of it as it actually ended up being pretty cheap, or so I thought….. engine shield the parts guy ordered showed up and it was just the regular felt lined...

Do you happen to remember what the part number was or what it was called for the underbody felt liners? Also, do you happen to know the part number for the little air vent for the PTU? Pretty much tore up both the drivers side front and mid section for the liners as well as I believe tearing off...

Anyone know what the part number is or what it’s actually called for the plastic vent that is supposed to direct air to the PTU? Need a replacement as mine must have gotten caught on something and got broken off…. Also the “felt” liners for the drivers side if anyone has the part numbers for...

Coated for shipping, not for longevity…that coat is long gone the first time you use the brakes…. Just let any vehicle sit for a few days and get exposed to any moisture in the air and aside from something with high end rotors made out of carbon and they will start rusting

Just for comparison to earlier builds, fast forward to the 0:47 mark in the video for a shot of the older exhaust setup: Compared to pictures I took tonight:

Pretty much the consensus I’ve gotten through reading through the forums is that the 2.0 software ended up fixing a good amount of things for quite a few people

I mean if the system wasn’t freezing with the software that came with it I would agree, but I’ve never updated it since I got it and it’s freezing

You’re not alone on the speakers popping and then music cuts out and come back, ecoboost here and my radio does the same thing, was more frequent when my maverick was new, but now after a couple thousand miles it has been doing it a lot less, still gonna get it checked out, but I know your...

Is the muffler further up towards the middle of the maverick then?

I stand corrected, was looking at the exhaust on my maverick out of curiosity from this thread tonight and low and behold, mine has the same patch as well with no traditional muffler like the earlier Mavericks, I’m wondering if this will actually be a good thing though as I seem to remember a...

Just saying, outside of price…. There’s no comparison to be made

City truck does not equate to compact sedan though, still an Apple to oranges comparison…. Ford themselves never marketed as such as far as I remember, the first comparison I ever saw made to that was a review by a third party, even at that those reviews basically paint a picture of ford’s...

Exactly why I had mine built the way I did and kept it under the $30k mark, selected what I thought were essential things for what I was planning on doing with my maverick and leaving out luxury items as I have other vehicles that are more luxury oriented…. That’s one thing I’ve never understood...

Not really worried about any of those things you mentioned…. My 96 civic also has openings that go through from the doors to the engine bay and while things do get stuck in there, I’ve never had an issue with corrosion of any sort and I believe the same will hold true for the maverick…. As far...

Update: well, finally happened and the system froze on me, interesting thing to note was that when mine did finally freeze, when I went to go do the soft reset I could feel some heat coming off the screen area almost as if the thing had overheated and might have caused the freezing
