"...Don’t anticipate mileage to equal that of my trade vehicle, a 2014 Mazda 3..." I have a 2023 Maverick XLT hybrid with approx. 3500 miles, and my last fill-up I averaged 48.1 mpg. Don't discount the mileage you can get with a Ford hybrid!

I bought my 2023 XLT Hybrid from Van Bortel Ford in East Rochester, NY. Paid invoice (about $700 below MSRP), + $182.50 in dealer fees and temp tag, nothing else. Paid sales tax in Florida when I returned here to register it. Had to order the truck, they have none in stock (all their allocation...

I bought all the rights to WEIRD many years ago... ;)

Damn, this adventure could be an incredible TV ad for Ford...

I must be the truly weird one. I removed all THREE the day after I picked up the truck...

Not a Maverick, but maybe it's "stepfather?" Found this Ranger had parked next to me as I was at the the DMV, paying the sales tax and getting my Florida tag.

Thanks! Now that I think about it, if you owned one of the original JP Explorers, it wouldn't ever be parked outside in your driveway, now would it? ;)

That "Jurassic Park" Explorer... a genuine "souvenir" from the movie? I ask because of the glass roof.

I have a quote for the local Line-X shop to apply their bedliner material as an undercoating. Not for rust-proofing (in Florida?), but as soundproofing. I'm having second thoughts as to the material being used. Comments? Concerns? Suggestions?

65 3/4... ;) 2023 XLT Hybrid in Hot Pepper Red. Only factory option: trailer hitch Dealer-installed accessories: spray-in bedliner Ford hard tonneau Ford hood deflector Accessories added since taking delivery (surprised how easy it was to add all of these): mud flaps dash trim below screen...

I have the Ford accessory tri-fold hard tonneau. It's pretty good at keeping water out, but "waterproof?" No. I'll find a little bit of water at the front of the bedliner after a Florida summer deluge, which is a better job at keeping water out than I expected.

I'll have to try that one, as the "Ossyl" device is totally worthless. Same price, too.

I'd love to add that to my truck, but when you live in Pinellas County, FL, and every road is a straight one going north-south or east-west, well... there are better places to spend my $100.00. Just sayin'... ;)

Through all of 2022 and the 1st 6 months of 2023, Ford has built approximately 134,000 Mavericks. While it certainly sucks to be one of the owners of a troublesome Maverick, I'm thinking the "bad" ones compromise a very small percentage.

Well, I THOUGHT it worked when I was on the road, but now (with my truck in the driveway) it's trying to change the temperature of my home thermostat. I'll have to get back t you on this.

You can also use the "voice" button on the steering wheel to raise and lower the temperature.

All I can speak to is availability and price (I have an XLT hybrid). You're not going to find a demo on any Ford dealer's lot, but I was able to find three to rent on Turo (https://turo.com) here in the Tampa Bay area. Had the exact one I wanted for three days and loved it. If you're not...

Most times when I get in the truck, start it up and then connect my phone for Android Auto, nothing happens. I have to disconnect the phone and re-connect it to get it to work (sometimes twice). Anyone else with this problem? Any solutions? I've searched dozens of other posts, but could find...

I think there was a time we bought extended warranties because we were afraid the vehicle might have problems, which meant I almost never bought one. Today, I bought the PremiumCare ESP because I KNOW there will be problems, and the ESP is a hedge against inflation. Case in point: the 2013...

OOPS! Someone forgot to tell me that I'm not supposed to post my opinions here. You see, I'm not a mind reader. But I've made a note to avoid anything that says "numike." Happy now?
