  1. Can the new 2025 Hybrid AWD be flat towed?

    Now that is a great question... I will be watching this
  2. Cold Starts and Multiple Hybrid Engine starts

    I am going to wait until after the the 10k mark oil change to get a baseline sample... will be doing the tranny too. It will be about the same time I need to do the RV. The 89 F250 I am not worried about and I can't find the motor or tranny on the Tesla 😋
  3. Cold Starts and Multiple Hybrid Engine starts

    YA I do it passed on past practice. I have no idea how the build the motors, if the motors are just put together based on parts available or if the parts are mic check by the lot before install. Does the motor get a test start and run for a few hours ant then an oil change before it is...

  5. Cold Starts and Multiple Hybrid Engine starts

    Ya, I kinda agree with you on that but to let it go the full 15K doesn't feel right. I use to work at an engine rebuild shop. I pulled and stripped the motors and saw what bad oil does to an engine. I also , and more often, saw what bad owners did which was not check the oil levels or oil...
  6. Cold Starts and Multiple Hybrid Engine starts

    First a foremost, I am not flaming you but would like to point out a few things the video mislead on... 1. The Video leads one to believe the only way water would leave the engine oil is once the temp reaches the boiling point... not true. Evaporation rate does drastically increase an...
  7. Yes! 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD can be recreationally flat towed.

    AL, I will tell you later this week. I already have a brake in a box but am gettin the base plate installed and buying a new tower.
  8. Is Maverick 200k miles reliable?

    https://www.motortrend.com/features/ev-battery-lifespan-degradation-replacement-cost-study/ You are talking about a small 12 volt verses a drive train battery. That is an apples and oranges. Neighbor had a first gen Prius and changed the battery at 130K, we use to replace engines with that kind...
  9. Bound to happen; Found my first unknown ding. Any fix recommendations?

    It is hard to tell, is there a crease? If not I have seen hot water and dry ice used to make it pop. won't work if there is a crease. I use to had a rubber mallet and various shaped rubber "pucks that I used to get small dents out but that looks more trouble then is't worth. Is the location the...
  10. Bound to happen; Found my first unknown ding. Any fix recommendations?

    My dad put a small dent in the bottom of his new car just out of sight... He claimed it would stop the next ding... LOL Ever see the WC Fields film where he gets a million dollars over night... Goes out and buys a new car and is hit as soon as he rolls of the lot. Walks back buys 20 cars and...
  11. About that weird engine sound when coasting at low speeds

    Anyway to customize the sound, like to a Ferrari or McClaren?
  12. Waiting to flat-tow a 2025 Maverick may take a long time.

    Heard fro Glenda at RoadMaster and she is hoping to get it to market on the 14th... hoping being the operative word. Wait and see.
  13. Towing - Loose hitch in receiver on 4k tow package.

    Never has a receiver that didn't have slop... Nor a pin that was close tolerance either
  14. Flat Towing the 2025 Maverick AWD Hybrid

    I posted Glenda Apple's Roadmaster E-mail address on one of the other flat tow threads... write her direct and ask her. Check your direct message I sent
  15. RoadMaster Base Plate UPDATE

    Got this from Glenda, "The adaptive cruise control was not a problem. I would lean to think that having the 4K we will be safe with the 2K." If you want to send Glenda Apple a direct message I got permission to post her email address and it is on one of the other threads. I guess I am not...
  16. Flat Towing the 2025 Maverick AWD Hybrid

    Awesome. I just got mine and with only a few days on it I am quite satisfied. We travel the off season and our next trip is in April. I am sure the base plates will be ready by then. I have a really good installer that did my buddy's Maverick in 23. He is in Tacoma. He is the one that suggest...
  17. Waiting to flat-tow a 2025 Maverick may take a long time.

    So I got this from Glenda "The adaptive cruise control was not a problem. I would lean to think that having the 4K we will be safe with the 2K." Sounds like they are making a plate that covers both and the ACC isn't why they are having to redesign the plates.
  18. Ordered a 25' Lariat Hybrid , Having second thoughts ...

    I would go with the 2.5 for the fuel efficiency. You already have the power covered with the dually. If you want power and gas savings.... Go EV... We have a Tesla and it is fast handles well, and is cheap to run. I hear the Stang EV is really nice if you want a ford. I would explore Cars not...
  19. Waiting to flat-tow a 2025 Maverick may take a long time.
