I am no engineer or anything like that, but my thoughts would lead me to a crane/hoist that would have to have its own frame/base to spread the weight over the truck bed and not 1 spot.
My idea would be to add a thick steel plate the exact size of the truck bed and fabricate the crane to that...
Is this recall still happening? I recall logging onto the Ford website when this initial posting came out and my vehicle was listed as one of the recalled. I believe I got a letter too about it in the mail (will have to look for it tonight after work, but I am confident I got one). Of which I...
my dealer I bought mine from offered a 20yr/200k mile as well. Assuming you bought it brand new from the dealership*. I attached a screenshot of what is "covered" but I am crossing my fingers...if anything goes wrong... I feel my dealership is honest/good enough to do the right thing...vs...
im not sure if this link will work, and I hope it is not against the rules or nothing. but I think I have cracked the code...

if not go to the site https://archive.is/ and then copy/paste the autonews link and it appears to work (at least for the time being and that...
Dang, mine isnt. Ill just have to wait until they get the wiper parts in first to then make it a combo appointment to do the software update on the sync system at the same time.
Maybe ill get 2 new windshield wiper motors out of it. Now I just have to determine if my dealership will just...
if this link works there is a video as well just below which kind of explains it. Just a safety feature.

I can try and take some photos later(at work and found some quick stock photos I will attempt to draw out how I did it). NOTE: this is may not be the best path or anything, but it worked for me and was fairly simple. On the trim pieces... if I did not need to actually completely remove the...
If the link works, I ended up using my Ford points on this one... Dashcam with Rear Facing Camera Bundle | Accessories.Ford.com . (If link doesnt work the SKU: VHL3Z19G490K ) It came with everything included to wire it up to the OBD port for power. Has parking modes and wifi connection. The...
Ford did build for many years the Ute.... the Australian version of the old el-camino... a car with a truck bed. I think it was around till the late 20-teens. (but dont quote me on that), in which if you put in todays more fuel efficient hybrids with a streamlined car body type setup, I bet you...
Why is there ZERO information about the new engine?
I have a feeling that it is just the current stock EB (22-24) engine +/- a tweak here or there, and the new 2025-future EBs are either a new EB engine or a weakened version. Based on the facts that the 2025 EB produces less power than before...
The engine bay is even more spacious now. Based off the posting of https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/%F0%9F%9A%A8-2025-maverick-debut-pricing-tech-specs-order-guide-wallpaper-photos-videos.52370/ with all of the video links at the end, the one by the TheFastLaneTruck guys, actually...
Does anyone know for sure if it is in fact August 1st.... or could this have been more of a teaser and what you are seeing is the first part of "August 1" of "August 19th or 12, or something like that?
Well update on my auto start/stop. As you can see in my post last week I commented about not driving long distances and I had a feeling at some point the stop/start would not activate. I drive about 30 miles (15miles each way) to work and back and only 4 or so of those miles are getting to and...
like others have said, there are a ridiculous amount of parameters of which the stop/start will not work. I believe on this forum someone posted a screenshot or something with all the variables that will cause it to not activate. (too cold, not up to operating temp, have climate control setting...
I will second that. I have it and I find it useful. I think my next purchase at some point is going to be a net style cover for when I have to keep the trifold panel up and dont want things flying away...a net to hold things down.
I have the same feeling about the part car/truck...but to me its more like part SUV/truck...and that fits my needs perfectly as well. I have the ecoboost which can tow slightly more, but so far I have only filled the bed with household stuff helping 2 different friends move, and stuff for a...
Does it fit nice for the Maverick? Being universal, I have a feeling that it kind of sticks out like a sore thumb, or does it kind of fit nicely...not that it appears stock... but not like an eye sore that you bought something to put there...and does it help? I bought the center council padded...
I swapped mine back to incandescnet bulbs this week and driven the truck about 15-20 trips so far and havent noticed the taillight out issue that I was having before. I did change the forscan settings back to normal (with the exception of the bulb outage detection with the fronts as I still have...
Let me/us know what the engineer person may say. The Morimoto bulbs I had would not engage the brake light, but turn signal it would flash 3 times thens top flashing. Hazards were the same way, flash 3 times then stop. Seeing the Morimoto and Lasfit use different things in the bulbs to stop the...
