Anyone look into Polydrop campers to pull behind a hybrid? Lightweight and aerodynamic. Optional kitchen. P19 Shorty - Aerodynamic Trailer for EVs | Polydrops Looks better and more secure than tent camping, while not losing much mpg at all.
Picked up a bag of 8 of these M8 304 stainless shoulder eye bolts for the threaded bed insets. They were $9.99 for 8. Basically a $5 upgrade for 4 extra tie down spots. One piece, so nothing to rattle either.
On the 5th day of owning my Hybrid, we took a 5 day trip. First we drove to Radica campers in Colorado to checkout the moonlander campers. We wanted to see if these units were feasible for the Maverick.
After a bit of measuring, we determined that for the camper to fit properly, it needed to be...
OK, Ford offers price protection on all orders within a model year against increases. I ordered my truck at a price level 315, and the sticker at delivery was price level 330. I called Ford CS, and they confirmed I was eligible to lock the September 22 pricing in on my 23 order, since it was a...
A relative sent me this video of his uncles truck. It caught fire at 4 am.
UPDATE: Fire Department investigators confirmed the fire started under the hood of the Maverick.
I talked to Moonlander Camper about making a camper for the Maverick, since theirs sleep sideways. They said they had several requests to build on a Maverick. They were not sure about dealing with the Curved part of the bed plastic where the back of cab meets the bed. I found a pic showing the...
Probably due to the SIBL, but so far my truck has been "in build Production" for 8 days. Anticipation is killing me. I feel like I'm trying to get the last bit of ketchup out of the bottle here. I'd imagine most trucks are done within 10 days.
Trying to figure out if I'm going to add lights, or color to the strip between the horizontal grille bars. Does anyone know the height and width of the strips in the pic that are orange?
I won't have my truck for another month, and it's an XL if that matters. Trying to decide between lights...
I'm surprised the Maverick didn't get this package, but not really. Ford dosn't want more Maverick attention.

I've seen several new GFC style campers, but so far none have committed to making one for the Maverick yet. I want to have a camp option by spring, and hopefully one that goes in the bed. A tear drop style would be my second choice.
Does anyone have a picture of a truck with Lime green tailgate letters? Looking for a light green, but online only see more of a medium green, or the color of a real lime. Other lime green decals seem lighter.
How many options did you add on your truck? (Not including engine choice) I ordered an XL, but have 5 options. CP360, SIBL, 400W, Manual Slider, And Hitch.
My 2023 Maverick is scheduled to be built next month. I decided long ago to make it into an "STX". I previously had a F150 STX which I lowered a bit, and put 2015 20" Lariat sport wheels on. Added the side stripes too, then accented with red pinstripes to match the red on the STX decals.
So...
I was thinking, if I decided to just keep the steelies, how to make them look good.
1) Not a fan of Police car black.
2) don't like universal hub caps that show the wheel underneath.
With those out of the way, I'm thinking outside the box. What about body color (in my case Atlas Blue), with...
Getting my Maverick in a couple months looking for aluminum wheels to replace my Steelies. Will buy outright or trade up. No shipping, must be within 150 miles or so of Chicago.
Finally after 8+ months, my Hybrid order previewed recently. What are the odds it will be built after being previewed? I am at Priority 10, and have no idea of my Medium size dealers allocations. A good sign or just a glimmer of hope?
I didn't see anything posted on this, but the Maverick plant is adding a 3rd shift!
I hope this means more hybrids coming.
