  1. Best Vehicle Colors for Resale - Clark Howard.

    I find it odd that orange and yellow hold value better somehow. To me those colours represent road and construction contractor/taxi vibes, which means lots of idle time, and are often beat on or in a lot of fender benders. Hard pass for me when looking at used vehicles. I get white and black...
  2. Trust Your Mav to The Dealer?

    Try breaking the lugs free, or torquing them down while a vehicles on a lift/jacked up, see how that works out for you. ;)
  3. 2022 Maverick Ecoboost - 190,000 Mile Review!

    In the manual for my 22 Mav the EB interval for the transmission is listed as 60k. 🤷‍♂️
  4. Young Maverick Owners Thread

    I'm 41, some store checkout people still talk down to me like I'm 18, I give them odd looks. I would think the odd grey hair in my beard and balding would be a give away... :ROFLMAO:
  5. 2022 Maverick Ecoboost - 190,000 Mile Review!

    Most people are wilfully ignorant and many others are just stupid (below 100IQ by birth) does that sound rude? I guess the truth hurts sometimes, to bad so sad. The fact that some people are too lazy to look up service intervals for their vehicles, and to lazy to look in the door jam for payload...
  6. 2022 Maverick Ecoboost - 190,000 Mile Review!

    He didn’t service the transmission at all up to the time it failed and he abuses the thing to. I wouldn’t put too much weight on his reviews unless you do the same kind of things. By that I mean loading and towing well over rated payloads, mud running, and other stuff that is very hard on a...
  7. Post YOUR Maverick TRUCKING!

    The Kayak (11 ft) is mounted on a Thule J rack that mounts on the bed racks T tracks. The Kayak alone doesn't have a big MPG hit, but most of the time I'm out with it the truck is loaded with camping gear, and I'm towing the little tent trailer. I still get typical freeway MPG, considering that...
  8. The robots are officially coming for tire shop jobs... 🤖🚗

    Looks less likely to damage the rims than the guys at a tire shops, so that's a plus. :cautious:
  9. Post YOUR Maverick TRUCKING!

    What’s the heaviest thing you’ve hauled? 1/2 yard of lawn top dressing. It was very close to max payload, maybe a little over, I didn't go to a scale. Would use a trailer if doing something that heavy again. What’s the sketchiest load you trusted the Maverick with? See above, steering was very...
  10. Did another thing today - 3rd brake light strip installed

    Huh? You said you got the low one because the high one wasn't working... Edit: I must have miss-understood your first post. This low strip was replacing another one, not the high mount?
  11. Did another thing today - 3rd brake light strip installed

    High mount brake lights are required, for a reason. Just FYI.
  12. Best riding all weather tire you've found

    The Michelin Cross Climate is the top rated all weather tire, nothing else even comes close in testing. Best winter performance, best in the wet, best in the dry, and best long term performance as the tire tread decreases.
  13. Did another thing today - 3rd brake light strip installed

    Is your truck out of warranty already, or is $10 worth of bulbs too much? If it functionally failed, make Ford replace it, makes no sense to do this.
  14. AC always come on at startup?

    No reason why it wouldn't, humidity is humidity. I cannot recall if the manual mentions the threshold for it, but my guess would be that it be 60% or higher (40-60% is considered idea humidity FYl).
  15. AC always come on at startup?

    It's not, my 22 does this as well. It turns on based on ambient temperature and humidity. If you live in an area with low humidity it might not happen to you.
  16. CVT in my 24 hybrid seems to be shifting now

    Using sports mode or tow mode by any chance? Those modes have simulated fake shifting sensations. If you are feeling shifts in other modes, you've got a problem.
  17. Toyota CEO confirms: RAV4-based Unibody Truck is coming for the Maverick!

    Not likely to look like that AI generated thing, it's the previous gen RAV4. Current Gen RAV4 is Hybrid only, so it makes sense that if this is true it would be a hybrid. Given the price point of the current RAV4, it won't be competing directly the the Maverick, it will be closer in price to the...
  18. ☀️ What’s everyone actually storing behind the Maverick screen?

    I store two things there, air or sunglasses, but usually air.
  19. Selling my 2023 back to the dealer

    Keep in mind, I'm not just talking about the Maverick, and I''m talking about actual battery drain/parasitic draw issues that charging alone would not fix.. The 80% charge bit, that's a Ford thing, not all hybrids do it, yet many still have the same problem. There are bigger things going on...
  20. Selling my 2023 back to the dealer

    Not the real issue here at all, they are charging just fine. 12v Battery drain is caused by a combination of things and has nothing to do with MPG chasing. It comes down to a lack of testing, poor software programming, sloppy manufacturing, and lazy engineering. The real cause? Greed, the need...
