My college car was an '85 Crown Victoria ex police car with the 351 and variable venturi carb. Bought used with 80,000+ miles on it, it ran terribly, at least till the engine and carb were rebuilt. It seriously could "roll coal" before that was a thing. Boy we did have some fun with that car...
Somewhat surprised this wasn't mentioned yet, the potential issue with cracked fuel injectors on the 1.5L engines that could cause an underhood fire:

My 2 cents. Overall I don't think the truck is too bad looking. Like the blue painted bumpers and trim, but really hope that's only for a sport trim package, and not a base model working truck.
Wheels are interesting but not something I would want even for a sport trim truck. I'd just as...
Both Hot Wheels and Matchbox are owned by Mattel I believe, so they actually have the same corporate parent. Not sure if they share any dies/molds between the companies though. Now recently I was at Hobby Lobby and saw a Greenlight brand model of a 2021 Ford Bronco Sport "rally vehicle" that...
I'm at Walmart enough that I will go to the toy department and look for one. But the rural Walmart's sometimes have a better selection, so next time I'm on a road trip, know where I'll be going. And agree about Matchbox, I have their Bronco Sport and it looks really nice.
Thankful you all are all right! (at least that's how it sounds in your video) Probably best to give all the details and video to your insurance company, and let them do the hard work. Not even sure what's needed to make a claim against the USPS or government. Another bright spot is your...
This happened to me today as well, 2023 Ecoboost XL. Got the turn signal recall update a couple weeks ago, had no issues after that...but then had it parked the past week, took it out of the garage today and voila no radio screen after the Ford logo on bootup. However today it cleared after...
Well this morning I received my first Maverick recall notice, for the turn signal issue. Got it in snail mail, nothing showing yet in my Ford Pass app. So now I know I'm really a Maverick owner with having my first recall, lol.
After reading this thread I hadn't thought about the possibility...
Thanks so much! It's actually along Highway 79 just outside Louisiana, MO, on my first day trip with the Mav, went up to Hannibal and back to STL. 79 is neat because it parallels the Mississippi much of the way up there.
Hello MTC folks,
New owner of a 2023 XL EB in the Gateway City. A bit of background...when Ford announced the Maverick, I thought it was really a neat little truck and started lurking on the threads on this forum as well as watching videos from the automotive YouTubers covering it. But I...
