True. I'm coming from a 2007 Colorado that could do a u turn in a phone booth.

I know! It's pretty embarrassing to have to do a 3 point turn while doing a basic u-turn in a compact truck. It makes me feel like I'm driving a dually Super Duty.

So, after driving the Maverick for almost a year and a half, the one thing that continues to irk me is that it seems to have the turning radius of a whale. Any particular reason it is so big? I often have trouble making u-turns on the first go. I have had many cars over the years (including...

There is a great, free app on Google Play called "Simple Music Player" which works extremely well for playing music off of SD cards. It is also ad free, and works seamlessly with Android Auto. https://play.google.com/store/search?q=simple%20music%20player&c=apps I am in to old radio shows...

I finally got around to installing my 2M mobile rig in my Maverick. It works fine, but every time I key up to transmit my Android Auto connection disconnects and disappears, and will only reconnect after I unplug and reconnect my USB cable. Anyone have any ideas on what I can/should shield in...

Ah, it hooks to the hinges. I was trying to visualize how it would hook on to the rear edge of the hood. This makes a lot more sense...

How does the tent attach to the top of the cab?

I guess I'll wait until they get the camera recall software sorted out. Maybe Ford can re-calibrate when they install that.

I keep having an aiming issue of backing in to a spot using the rear camera. For instance, when I backed into this space, the white lines on the rear camera image were perfectly parallel with the parking spot lines as I backed in. As you can see, it's not straight in real life. Is there a way...

Jack is in the box...

I parked at my local Best Buy and came out to find some super duty guy had flexed and parked in front of my Maverick. Nice color, though...

Anybody have any advice on the best way to load a queen sized mattress in a Maverick? I have to move one in the near future and I'm just trying to wrap my head around it...

I think the Hansel family owns every car dealer (of any marque) north of the golden gate... I recommend Walnut Creek Ford, if you have the option. Quality dealer :)

I drive past a salt marsh, and sometimes I can smell it with the recirc on and sometimes I cannot. It's annoying.

Does anyone else have an issue with the AC still letting in outside smells when the recirc button is engaged? I have not had that issue with cars in the past...

Yes, but Ford only likely sees maybe a thousand in profit on each Maverick (if that) Compare that to the $10K-$20K they make on each F-series...

Any good reports of ways to remove a scratch from the rear bumper?

I have no tow package. Just the Ford hitch. This load was probably close to 2000 with the trailer and stuff included. I'm pretty pleased overall. Now I can start building that teardrop trailer :)

Made the 300 mile trek to pick up my daughter at college and clean out her apartment for the summer. The trip there I got 40 mpg, all freeway running 75-80 the whole way in slippery mode. The trip back I was towing an 8ft U-Haul open trailer full of stuff and did 25 mpg in tow/haul mode. I...

Great advice about the Santa Cruz...
