  1. Full size spare question

    I will, as I have always done, bought a set of wheels with snow tires mounted and switched back and forth with the OEM tires/wheels. Then I keep one winter/summer tire in the bed to use as a spare. screw the donut. Ohhh my gawd, how many brand-new donut tires and wheels must there be in...
  2. No AC

    Okay your dealer is likely to recognize you. Is there another in about a 30 mile radius? So fill a hair spray (empty preferred) bottle with water and spray your face and hair (do not forget the pits) just before you drive into their lot and say that the AC ain't working...You're getting a bit...
  3. Cheap Harbor Freight hitch extender modified as 3rd roof rack cross bar.

    Leave it as is and weait for a good track day to see if a piece of plywood can help lower your lap times. This ain't NASCAR, not all winnin is cheatin.
  4. These dealers need to be reigned in

    I believe in a capitalist society, but I also believe that these dealers should be allowed to charge whatever they want as long as they also agree to free housing, three hots and a cot in our prison system. I would say it is a fair and equitable trade for screwing the rest of us. MSRP should be...
  5. Maverick in Ford commercial during Kentucky Derby

    It's one second more than anyone has seen before. They won't advertise more until they know they can build more than the custom orders. Why waste the ad money... it keeps it's pric ing down.
  6. Ford cannot fill all the orders for 2023

    My dealer told me that they do not know what their allocation is prior to the order banks opening. They also said that they have no clue about the percentages of hybrid vs Eco boost vs XL vs XLT vs Lariat will be. They notified me as soon as they learned that only 15% XLs would be built and...
  7. Sad times for me... fender bender today

    I handled insurance claims for 4 decades. I knew when they stopped painting bumper and face bar covers and put a texture on, it was a ploy to sell lots of covers "because that texture can't be duplicated". So I suggested that they just paint the cover to match the body color. I suggested this...
  8. Permaplate protection worth it? Is my dealer trying to pull a fast one?

    Dent Protection is PDR (paintless dent repair) for minor door dings, not a hail loss (you're already insured for that with your Auto insurance policy), nor collision dents (same reason).
  9. Received wrong spare tire?

    It is a full sized spare wheel (if you drive an XL), the tire not so much. I live in the north so I've bought 4 other wheels for snow tired and just keep the donut spare in case I have two leaks/punctures and one of the snows stored in the bed under the tonneau cover
  10. My lemon saga is ending

    I'm in Iowa and Granger and Flood quoted me $1,790 for an ESP ($50 DED, 8 YR, 100k/MI) except Granger is IN Iowa, as am I, and they have to charge Iowa tax of $123, soooo makes my decision to BUY local much easier. NOT!
  11. My lemon saga is ending

    Try Flood ford out east then Pricing is very similar
  12. Email versus Ford Tracking

    What KdeB said. I wondered the same thing two days ago. I called FoMoCo and they confirmed what my letter said and acknowledged that it may take a week or two to update that site. Also if you ordered two, buy both, do not CANCEL. There are people on this site that won't get their 2023 and list...
  13. Curb, meet Wheels. Seeking two FX4 black wheels.

    contact Co-Part, i know they have taken in a few Mavs and they will know if they had an FX4 and where it went to be parted out
  14. They are finally both Here!

    I have heard others mention that the metal panel behind the rear seat have items clipped or screwed to it that vibrate, check those connections.
  15. My lemon saga is ending

    For an ESP quote go to Granger Ford ESP site and you chose your deductible, years and mileage preferences and it gives you the price.
  16. Ford Maverick Extended Warranty at $25 Over Dealer Cost from Granger Ford- PAYMENT PLAN AVAILABLE!!!

    I went to Granger's web site and priced out mine 8 year - $50 deductible - 100k miles and it was $1,790 plus tax. It is not fishy at all, they can't quote a price until you tell them what you want... those three things I just listed. $0 deductible, costs more $100 or $200 deductible costs less...
  17. Can someone (really) explain allocations?

    What Paneubert said... I just got off the phone with my dealer and he said it has to do with their past years sales history over their whole vehicle line, then it narrows things down to truck/suv sales. My dealer said they took in 22 orders and only 15 will get built. Mine is scheduled and I was...
  18. 🗓️ Maverick Scheduling This Week (4/20/23) For Production Weeks Through 6/26

    Nah you can panic now. I never wanted the hybrid as I wanted awd but the very moment I learned they only would make 16% XLs I went to the dealer and changed to XLT and BAP to enhance my chances on getting. They can’t build all of the hybrids so you’re doubly hung out to dry. Sorry buddy.
  19. Chapman Ford Questions

    LOL, I know right? I was babysitting a two and a four year old grandkids while trying to text. Hit send w/o proof reading. In a nutshell, all warrantees are bets, akin to insurance. You put your money down and hope you don't have a need to collect. Is it a waste? No, just another form of...
  20. Canada - Anyone traded their Maverick in or sold?

    Ask your dealer for a quote, then go to another FORD dealer and just say you'd like to order another MAV (top[ of the line) for 2024 but you need to get rid of this one to buy your girlfriend an engagement ring (worth at least three mavericks), and after the wedding you'd tell her you sold your...
