  1. Howdy: Looking at Mavericks

    Make sure you have the latest updates on your phone and also Try someone else’s phone if you haven’t. I have 25000 miles on my 2023 XLT. I use a wireless plug and connect wirelessly to CarPlay. I’ve only had it freeze less than 5 times in all those miles. For the first 1000 miles I had my...
  2. Nervous to Order Now

    FYI, I’m 84 miles a day round trip commute with only 15 miles of that being non-interstate backroads. Yet I’m averaging 41 mpg calculated (42.5mpg) per the computer screen with my hybrid. I’ll admit that I’m not doing jackrabbit starts but I’ll have you know I’m driving about 80mph on the...
  3. Dealer wants $2,750 refund back.

    I think it’s the typical dealer with typical issues. That’s why I went with Tim Bart’s at Long McArthur and flew from Georgia to Kansas and drove it back home. Zero problems. Got my $2750 when my local dealer just wanted to play games.
  4. Just found a hidden cubby :D

    My understanding is the epa did due to how they classify them with mpg penalties. That’s why it’s hard to get a new shortbed single cab these days. That’s what I’ve read anyway.
  5. Think I saw a 2025 Maverick

    I used to work at that R&D facility. 1st job after college.
  6. Why do so many posts about hybrids talk about trickle chargers and jumpers

    Mine sat one day and went into deep sleep With everything dead?
  7. Maverick battery recall still not done after 3 days

    My 2023 hybrid has been trouble free. This morning though totally dead. Today is Saturday and I drive it 90 miles Thursday. There’s no way the battery should have discharged in a single day with nothing left on. I’m wondering if I should sell it while it’s still under warranty. I’ll always...
  8. Anyone had dealer resolve climate control (Too hot/Too Cool) issues?

    Im an engineer. I used to develop the algorithm via testing. There’s basically an equation with a lot of variables and constants. You bump the constants up or down as needed to achieve desired interior temps. Solar load has a huge effect. You measure that with a pyronometer when testing...
  9. “Free” DIY tie down options for tailgate assist and XL sportfish tie downs

    I grew up with a 1950 Ford truck that had latches that would pinch your finger when hooking the chain in. It also had chains to hold up the tailgate and if not connected if I recall correctly it would fall. It made me what I am today. I don’t think I need a damper. As a counterpoint though...
  10. Change rear sliding window to powered one…

    I need some parts from a wrecked unit to try to mod the manual sliding window.
  11. Would you buy hybrid again yes or no

    I’ve had zero hybrid issues. I’m now close to 15k miles. My only trouble is a squeaking dash that sounds like it’s just flopping up and down if I cross a rumble strip. I swear it like there is no rigidity. I’m guessing they are all that way so I have not asked for any warranty work.
  12. MPGs FAR below advertised and hype. Are you all telling the truth?

    I typically average 42mpg. With all honesty. That’s about 60%hwy. But it’s at 73-75 mph. If I run 80-85 my mpg drops to about 38. Those are real calculated numbers. I’m as honest as they come. Ask my wife. Sometimes she wishes I wasn’t honest aka how does this look honey? I will say my...
  13. Plastic Interior 2024 Seems less easy to scratch

    I had scratches there after driving home from the dealer. I still don’t know what caused them
  14. Change rear sliding window to powered one…

    Ideally I would be able to Swap parts from a power sliding window into my manual sliding window without having to fully replace the window. I’m talking replace the sliding small center window and swap the inserts with cables and mount the motor. Then I’d hard wire the motor and a switch and...
  15. Change rear sliding window to powered one…

    I’d love some photos. I’m an engineer and XLT manual sliding back window with power moonroof owner.
  16. Poll, Hybrid owners with NO problems

    2023 XLT. Delivered 6/2023, 10,400 miles, 0 problems (well except for occasional dash squeak I’ll probably just live with)
  17. Change rear sliding window to powered one…

    This thread is old. Now that the trucks are out could anyone with a power rear window take some pictures. I’m wondering if only the window and motor/cable system can be swapped from a salvage unit without actually swapping the whole rear window?
  18. 100% mpg gain

    Sombody playing critter-critter? Now I want some Taco Bell.
