  1. Two Thousand Miles in - Lariat Owner Review

    Very similar to what I would have written. I have about 1000km on mine. One feature in my Lariat that I would have mentioned is that I have dual climate control knobs....one that will likely never get used. I wish that was for fan speed selection like some of the other trim models instead of...
  2. Tonneau cover supplier / availability?

    From Nova Scotia I have been looking and haven't been able to find a soft tri fold in Canada. I did place an order with autoeq.ca. Their web site said they had them in stock, they took my money but later sent an email saying it would be a 4 to 6 week wait. I quickly asked for my money back...
  3. Impressed with FX4 factory Pirelli Scorpion tires in the snow (feedback / review)

    I had started another thread yesterday about driving in the snow. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/any-other-snow-mavericks.6114/ In short the Pirellis Scorpions worked very good in thick snow...at least when they are new.
  4. Any other snow Mavericks ?

    I'm still wearing shorts....maybe not today. Our weather can be quite variable this time of year. This weekend is supposed to be 12°C so about 54°F. Last week some nearby areas got 300mm rain or about 1 ft in 24hrs.
  5. Any other snow Mavericks ?

    First significant snow since getting my Maverick. Only drove rear wheel drive Rangers for last 30 years so this AWD is a big change. I still have the original AT tires on the Maverick. I have snows to put on just didn't get there yet. There was enough snow on my road such that it was touching...
  6. Is the Maverick connected to the internet?

    You can turn some of the tracking off by turning off the Sync. This I think is most of your personal data and movement. You will lose the ability to remote start and some other features. This is Ford's way of coercing us to accept data collection. I have chosen to turn it off for two...
  7. Maverick poses with spiritual predecessor 2000 Ford Ranger

    I had the blue Ranger (2008) and the now have the Area 51 Mav...
  8. Removing Visor Stickers

    I removed both big white/yellow stickers from the driver side visor. The one on the backside (roll-over warning) on the mirror flap is easiest as it is a hard surface. I did that one first to see if it would work. The front side is a little harder as you have to be careful not to stretch the...
  9. ....

    my inverter is only in the cab behind the arm rest.
  10. Tired of the Auto Stop Start? Install Autostop Eliminator

    For those who drive in city traffic I a can maybe see a small fuel saving but for me I am not waiting at traffic lights much so this feature is just a nuisance that I would like to be able to have the option to engage or not to better suit my needs and driving style.
  11. Make your own Maverick bed tie-downs: DIY bed side rail tutorial by Ford

    I think learning a few good knots and a length of decent braided rope is better than trying to manage ratchet straps in most circumstances. I have both and I am more inclined to grab the rope for securing most items. Look up "trucker's hitch" and "bowline" for knots. Ratchet straps...
  12. Annoying "Some functions are disabled when moving....." warning.

    Thanks as I did not make that clear. I have turned Sync off so no more messages and I am sending less data to Ford. However the Terms and Privacy Policy states: "Uninstalling FordPass will not turn off sending data to Ford" so it seems some data always is being collected.
  13. Annoying "Some functions are disabled when moving....." warning.

    I have the same 2 pop messages when Sync is turned on. Every time the vehicle goes below about 10km/hr they pop up and stay on until speed is increased. That is very annoying and maybe even illegal as we are not allowed to text and drive in my province! I view these messages the same as if...
