Sorry it didn't work out for you, but sometimes the grass isn't greener. Toyota has some growing pains of their own right now as they attempt to switch to smaller, forced induction setups. They are swimming in recalls, especially for the Tundra (Taco has issues too). That said, I'd be a...

There's really only one person that has (and still does) give me grief. Most people I meet are curious and ask how I like it. I've heard more times than I can remember "I really wanted one but couldn't find one that wasn't marked way up" or something along those lines. They are everywhere now...

I remember my dad throwing a wrench while working on our '91 Dodge Caravan for like the 20th time when I was young. He hated that "everything is plastic now". This tired complaint has been going on for decades. The difference now is cars are way WAY more reliable across the board. 90's...

Eh, only thing that would make me even consider a trade up is the 2.3. The screen is nice though, hopefully that can be swapped in to 22-24 MY.

I'm not really into lowered trucks but man, yours is gorgeous.

Careful, those kind of statements will attract the "pull yourself up by your boot straps, slacker" type folks. I got into an argument with a forum member over the state of the economy, and how absolutely awful it is for younger people. Even showing him median income vs. cost of living now vs...

It's a perfect amount of truck and utility for 80% of truck owners in North America. Then you factor in the price, and it becomes even better. I'll agree with the OP that the tippy top spec'd Mav is probably not as good a value as mid/low spec'd Mavs. But what is the purchaser using it for...

Went for a little bike ride today; slowly hoping to get back in to more technical trail riding. Also hauled a bunch of old PCs/electronics to the recycler yesterday but didn't get a photo of that. Bed getting all kinds of use lately

They are everywhere now in my area. I was out at lunch yesterday by a busy downtown road and counted 4 or 5 go by, and those were just the ones I noticed.

This is really the only answer. Forums will be skewed by people looking for solutions to problems, OR people who just like nitpicking and complaining.

Delivered Jan 2023. 10k miles on odometer. A couple minor recalls and one dead window switch (5 minute repair at home) are the only issues. It's a great little truck and I have no plans to get rid of it. Mod list in signature

Tentatively planning to drive to southern IL to see the total eclipse. We're getting about 85% here. A lot hinges on weather forecast though.

To answer the OP: a lot of the time, sarcasm and friendly jabbing doesn't translate easily through the keyboard. So, people can sometimes take it the wrong way and get their undies in a bundle. Sometimes people are naturally assholes, though. But, I am never sarcastic (see what I did there?)...

Dealership near me has finally reduced their markup from $5k to $2k on MY24 Mavericks. I've noticed their supply steadily increasing over the last few months, at least according to the website.

This thread is way too civilized. We need a troll to come in and knock us down a few pegs. (joking aside, my personal butt dyno also confirms improvements running higher octane)

You can find out a lot about a person by their plate. It takes 45 seconds to block it out in a pic, and to me that's worth it to decrease exposure/risk from the entire internet, down to a handful of locals who see it daily.

'23 w/ FX4 no recall listed for me; maybe it's related to the standard cluster? Or, someone else had mentioned that no one with EB had it listed.

This thread, so far, is the equivalent of someone dropping ass in a crowded room then leaving right away with everyone else scrambling to find the cause.

Can't speak on the hybrid, but as far as new vehicles go the Mav so far has fared reasonably well. Airbag recall (mine I believe was fixed at the factory), tow package wiring; I have yet to service the turn signal recall. Other than that, my master window switch died. Rather than deal with...

Got mine from Metro Ford of Madison. The actual sale of the vehicle went smoothly, and the sales reps were fine to work with. I sent the rep my build, I stopped in and put down a deposit, and he kept me updated over the following months. Delivery was painless. The service department...
