  1. Not a Maverick in sight from Fl to NY

    In Pensacola, I've only seen five in the 15 months I've had my Maverick. Two were on the road, one was in a Walmart parking lot, another was in the parking lot of one of the hotels I work at and one is on a used car lot. I stopped and looked at the one on the car lot. It was a '23 XLT FWD Cyber...
  2. Not a design flaw. Everything is fine. (Better?)

    About 160 miles west. Almost to the Alabama line.
  3. Not a design flaw. Everything is fine. (Better?)

    Northwest Florida. We still get them, but not as many.
  4. Anyone else thinking about solar charging hybrid?

    And now, here it is: https://aptera.us/vehicle/
  5. Not a design flaw. Everything is fine. (Better?)

    Amen to that!!!
  6. Ugliest of the Ugly… what’s yours?

    I'm hard pressed to choose the ugliest car I've owned, but I narrowed it down to three. First car I owned was a '68 Rambler American. I drove this thing to high school for a couple of years and sold it when and bought a '68 Firebird convertible. Next is a '78 Ford Pinto station wagon. My wife...
  7. Tremor tow vs 4k tow package

    Tremor and FX4 both come standard with only 2k tow. The difference is that you can add 4k tow to FX4 but not the Tremor.
  8. Interior door handles awkward to grab

    To be honest, other than an initial "wow, that's different", I don't think I've ever given a second thought to my door handles. They work just as well as any other vehicle I've ever owned, maybe even better than some. They work-enough said.
  9. Maverick Tremor featured on Fox News

    Saw the other day that the Tremor was featured on Fox News: https://www.foxnews.com/auto/review-the-2023-ford-maverick-tremor-is-a-tougher-little-truck
  10. Threads we see again, and again, and again, and again (personal favorites)

    It's not any particular subject, but I see a lot of the newbies (Sept 22 or later) replying to threads that are up to a year old. At that point, I think it would be OK to start a new thread on the same subject. Also, as someone mentioned in an earlier post, people who complain about people...
  11. 45 Day Notice

    Got my 3rd "We're thinking of you, but we really don't care" Thursday. Since I have a perfectly good XL that I've only put ~ 8400 miles on since December 2021, I'm really in no hurry. It will also give me enough time to save up a good down payment to go along with my tax return.
  12. Check Your Metal Keys!

    I did find that you have to tilt the key (the part in your hand) slightly down and the key goes right in. I don't lock my tailgate unless I have something of value in the bed. It really only keeps honest people honest, as a determined thief would just cut my tonneau cover. Hopefully "out of...
  13. Possible bed rug alternative from Coverking?

    I cut mine to fit in one piece. I cut it slightly wider than the bed (1/16"-1/8") so that it fit tight and not move. I have hauled groceries, luggage and trash in bed and the mat has not moved. I do have a tonneau cover now, but not when it was first installed (about 3 months) and it still did...
  14. Top 5 Stock Items to be Modified on Your Maverick?

    Let me see if I can remember all of them: Black tailgate lettering Added cruise control switches and programmed with Forscan Gator tri-fold tonneau cover Horse mat for bed liner Stainless steel eye bolts for eight added tie-down points Lasfit Switchback amber turn signal/white DRL LED strip @...
  15. Bed mat and backflip midgate on a budget - my custom DIY solution 🪚

    I got the horse mat from Harbor Freight. It was very hard to cut. I finally ended up using a jigsaw. The piece on the tailgate is just laying there and will only be used if I have to haul something heavy and don't want my tailgate to get scratched up. I may eventually secure it if I can figure...
  16. Auto Insurance Trackers

    I drive around 7500 miles a year, mostly to work and back home (~30 miles). Then there is the getting groceries, gun range trips both twice monthly and then the occasional "got to get away or I'll go mad" trip. I really have no idea how they calculate the discount, but the app does give you a...
  17. Auto Insurance Trackers

    I have one from State Farm (drive safe and save) and it seems to be very intuitive. As long as I keep my speed at 5 over or less it doesn't gig me for speeding. It rates each trip with 5 bars ranging from poor to average to great. I have yet to get less than 4 bars on any category and I mostly...
  18. Tonneau Covers and Bed Mat Options ?

    Amazon's replacement for the Flymotor is the Mixsuper. It cost a little more, but is essentially the same. Link...
