I tapped the battery under the rear seat. For a mount, I put my dual bander hanging from a bent piece of aluminum stock that hooks into the center console armrest hole. It has a remote head. I sticky-taped a magnet on a drop-in plastic tray (that fits behind and around the top of the screen) to...

If you have wireless CarPlay, yes. Our 24 ioniq 6 has wireless charging but not wireless CarPlay. USB only, but a $30 usb wireless CarPlay dongle from Amazon fixed that. Waze Works even with phone in my pocket.

I prefer WAZE with the crowd-sourced warnings and real-time traffic re-routing. I have found though that I usually look at the selection of routes as it tends to pick the shortest/fastest route that can sometimes be painful (residential streets vs major highways). A quick click on the route list...

We purchased a 10yr/100k/0 deduct for our Lariat when we picked it up from Granger last year, and just this week I'll be getting a 8yr/100K/100 deduct for my daughter's 25' Escape PHEV. She's leaving home so want her to have coverage wherever she winds up (British Columbia is looking good right...

Nice - we love our 25' Lariat. Your fist mod should probably be this.. A cheap USB-LED bulb that goes over the cubby and in the rear at the console. The Lariats have ambient lighting, but it's half-assed. No lighting in the back, and there's no lighting where you really need it (the phone...

I used folding ramps to put a riding lawnmower in the bed. Rear wheels rode on the tailgate it it worked. Something like these might work for you. They fold up. Just watch out for sharp edges… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085QH9FFM?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_product_details

I use this one with our Ioniq 6. Works ok though sometimes the phone takes 10-20 seconds to connect since the latest apple update. This one appears to have good support and has a firmware update utility too. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0FH4DS62G?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Called dealer yesterday. A tech just came out this morning and did the fix in my garage. Took about 10 minutes. Just just plugged his laptop into the OBD2, got online, and downloaded the patched firmware.

I stand corrected... though anyway you look at it, Hyundai is going to get hurt and won't want to continue any low selling / low profit vehicles.

If Hyundai would have offered it with as a hybrid and also a plug in hybrid with 40-50 miles of battery range along with AWD and 3,500 lb towing they'd had never been able to keep up with demand. The drivetrain lack of options was the show-stopper and it had the MPG of a full sized truck but...

Picked up a Yaesu FTM-200 vhf/uhf radio for cheap at a hamfest over the weekend. Put it in the Mav and found a lot of noise whenever I started the truck. Wound up being my Chinese dashcam. Some split-core ferrite beads on the cables out of the webcam and that seems to have solved my problem. I...

An FYI. I just did a maverick oil change in my garage. 5 qts 0w20 Castrol Edge FULL SYNTHETIC and premium STP oil filter for $36 from AutoZone + got a $10 rebate on the way back. Old oil goes back to AZ for recycling. Easy job and you know it's done right (you'll need to add a little more...

The owner's manual specifically says no additives needed. Dealer should have never added any without your permission, and certainly not charged you for it. " We recommend Motorcraft® motor oil for your vehicle. If Motorcraft® oil is not available, use motor oils of the recommended viscosity...

Just got a phone call direct from Ford acknowledging my earlier email and telling me that they’ll pass along my complaint / suggestion to engineering. I don’t know if anything will happen but the more people who would complain about this I think the better to repeat. The battery saver doesn’t...

You can read the rpm’s via an obd2 Bluetooth connection and sw. I use the free version of car scanner and put it up on CarPlay…

Is there a speed parameter that also effects the operation of the shutters? I've watched them through the ODB2 reader + the free version of car scanner (works with CarPLay!). I see they modulate based on engine temp, but not sure what else is figured in with the algorithm.

1. Yes. I use the free version of "Car Scanner" - the app itself has cool graphics but on CarPlay the dashboards are only 8 lines of text. Works fine though. Quick updated. 2. The carplay app has a "connect" button so if you close the app, you need to re-connect. It's minor. M don't use it all...

I picked up the obd2 reader that goes inactive after 15 minutes...

Thanks Andy. It's also not a show-stopper for me, as I think the Hybrid AWD Maverick is an excellent vehicle in most aspects, but damn this is a miss by Ford. A self-inflicted programming flaw that, I bet has been the cause a of lot of service calls where owners believe the manual and assume...
