Two things in your post are confusing. The hybrid does not have a tachometer but you mention .5-1(000) rpm. You also mention auto start stop being on, thats not a selectable thing in hybrids.

Those are what I switched to, they are a great tire but I am not sure they are available in 6-ply like OP wants at least not in a size that fits our trucks. Edit: I am having trouble finding ply count for the tires. But 235/70r17 the firestones are available in their xl load and in my opinion...

I haven't seen a front mounted bike rack on anything other than a city bus. Cons: worse aerodynamics, worse visibility, difficult to mount it to the truck probably will need to custom fab something. Pros: ???

The dealer mispoke about how payload in the truck affects tow rating. The tongue weight of the trailer comes out of payload(passengers and stuff in the bed). Lets say your boat and trailer weigh 2000lbs and assume 10% weight on the hitch (200lbs). You are at max tow weight and have 1300lbs left...

You are looking for a piggyback tune. Burgermotorsports jb4 is an example. It does not rewrite anything. From what I read is that it is not completely untraceable. Something about the vehicle opperating outside of normal parameters but it does not reflash anything.

Well you should probaby list some of your needs.

The one I went to had speakers you could clip on somewhere(admittedly pretty crappy quality)or the radio option. But still they are in the bed with a non opening rear window. I do like your portable radio idea though.

Why do you need the truck running at the drive in especially sitting in the bed? Running something from the 120 outlet?

I looked but have not found one for our transmission

That strip of rubber seems to be a common issue. I only hand wash and it pops up on me and a lot of other Mav's.

What if anything are you storing in the bin under the seat? Is something putting upward pressure under the seat?

Once the truck has warmed up it is fine.

22 xlt fx4 4k. 31000mi Recently my Maverick has had trouble catching the next gear when it is up shifting. It only seems to happen once after a cold start usually on my way to work and not as often in the afternoon after sitting for 8 hours. It happens under 30mph on moderate acceleration so I...

235/65/r17 wildpeaks are standard on tremor and were an option for fx4's. The speedo can be calibrated to that size. Mpg impact is minimal. I just replaced my scorpian tires with firestone at2 in 235/65 r17 because they are comprable in performance but weigh less than the wildpeaks. 245 70 you...

I would think a test drive is resonable for a drivetrain issue

If I remember correctly(my auto s/s hasnt worked in over a year) it will significantly decrease blower speed if engine is off to conserve electricity. But I read your other comment about the lights going off, i have no clue then.

Was your engine also stopped while at the light(auto stop/start) If so thats why your AC stopped.

If auto stop/start has your engine stopped at a stoplight the A/C won't stay for long and will restart once the engine restarts.

To get this straight, you want to paint the wheels while still on the truck. (With spray paint...) Do not do this. It will look like crap you will get paint on things you dont intend to and or shouldn't (like your rotors) Either learn how to dismount your wheels and do it off the truck...

The manual specifically mentions that slid in campers are not recommended. There are a handful being made specifically for the mav but not many.
