The red screen was literally your collision warning system based on your description. I’ve had it pop up a few times on me when I’m not braking as I approach the rear of a vehicle turning in front of me because I know it’ll be out of the way.
As for the rest, I have a theory: Mavericks, unlike...
My truck has 19k miles and is on its *second* winter of living outside. Again, I know of others who have similar stories and have been fine. And Ford now has TENS of thousands of Maverick and Escape hybrids out there and if this were “widespread” then there would be TONS of people on these...
Now that part might sadly be true.
FWIW, I’m an early adopter. Put my order in 7/21, truck showed up 2/22, and I am closing in on 20k miles. Love the thing.
Impossible to get, but what we do know is that forums like this, while SUPER helpful, also tend to blow the scale of these kinds or problems up a lot worse than they really are. I suspect that if this shudder was even 1 in 100 that there would be a LOT more people screaming on this forum than...
Calm down. While these problems are real and I feel for the owners struggling with them, there are thousands of trucks not suffering from them. You’ll be fine.
Had it done a few days ago and can say for certain that it’s WAY better. You can still occasionally feel that servo pop but even when you do it has waited until MUCH later and closer to being stopped, so it’s far less jarring. But most of the time when you think you’re in the scenario where it...
Not relevant. The company that caused it is straight up self insured at this level and thus literally showing up at the dealer when it’s done to pay for it directly in whole.
If they don’t, then I’m going straight lawyer. But I was clear and professional about what I wanted, and they’ve been...
I had an appointment scheduled with my dealer to get the brake TSB done and before the appointment this happened:
If you look In the background, you can see I just came through a one lane controlled area for power line construction. As I was going through, one of the boom trucks smacked a...
I’ve got 16k on mine and have had this issue since day 1. Pretty much exactly like others describe…kept meaning to check j to it but never did. Glad to see they might have a fix soon. It’s never been horrible, but is embarrassing when you have passengers and it does it.
Yeah, different use case for us then, and that makes sense. FWIW, it’s hotter here in central NC than it typically is at sea level in Maui (during the worst of summer here, anyway), and the humidity is worse here. But again, we don’t leave them in there with the truck stopped for that kind of...
Curious what the dog problem is? I’ve got an F-250 that I’ve had for several years as my previous dog hauler, and it’s got a Leer top with the *exact* same style windows. Now, I never leave the dogs sitting in the back with the truck stopped for very long, but on normal road trips my two large...
Dissenting opinion on looks…I really like the look of the SnugTop better than this. The way the window has no lower or front gap to the truck bed just looks better to me. This thing looks like it doesn’t belong somehow. I think darker colors would look a LOT better than the white, though, since...
That’s mine, and that’s the Ford branded SnugTop. You can get it through a Ford dealer, though I think you can now also get them from Leer dealers (Leer now owns Leonard and SnugTop).
I think the SnugTop looks better, too.
It looks to me like they did two things, though the angle of the picture could be messing with it. But I think they split the difference in the height…it’s not quite as high at the front as the highest point on the roof, but it’s not as low as the rear of...
That’s what I’ve been trying to tell people, too. I like the flat top look better and have done that on five different pickups before this. But on this it would suck. Too low inside, and the view out the back would be impossible.
There is no problem with the fact that it’s a unibody, the water can just run out the sides as there’s actually nothing to trap It.
Not sure why you’re getting leaks at the front, mine does not. As for the back, mine also doesn’t leak at the back, but like others have said, if it’s raining or...
That’s cool. You’ve seen it and can make those calls. I’m just trying to make sure folks either see for themselves or know these potential issues exist. I’ve just seen so many people talking about doing things with this setup that it’s just too small to do, or at least it is going to be a LOT...
The cap is 19” from the top of the rail. The cab is 15” from the top of the rail *at the very back*. But there’s like an inch of drop from what’s really the “flat” part of the top to that rear edge, so I’d really say the SnugTop is really 3” taller than what I’d think you really want in a “flat...
