  1. Black Appearance Package (BAP) Hood Graphics - XLT vs Lariat (photos)

    IMHO, they are both ugly and don't do a thing for the truck's appearance. I'd immediately remove them!
  2. TFL Slip Test on 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD

    Absolutely correct. The only time I have not been able to get my AWD Maverick to move, it was on a slope covered with damp grass. Turned off the traction control, and there was no problem at all getting going.
  3. Why new intake/manifold design for 2025 Maverick?

    One thing is for sure: they really made it a whole lot cleaner, more attractive! Thanks for the pics.
  4. 245/65r17 Michelin Cross Climate 2s - anyone got a pic?

    Why that exact tire? That size made by any tire company is going to look the same. 245-65R17 BFGs on a stock '24 AWD Ecoboost:
  5. Question about corrosion.

    Why do you say: "Ford has a no-corrosion warranty"? While this may not be ideal, there is a warranty: According to Ford's current warranty information, the 2025 model year corrosion warranty covers body sheet metal panels against corrosion due to manufacturing defects for 5 years with unlimited...
  6. Ecoboost owners who live in hilly areas… what is your avg mpg?

    The thing most are not saying is if they are posting the truck's computer mpg, or posting actual/calculated mpg. The computers on just about all vehicles these days err on the optimistic side. On my Maverick the truck's computer is about 3mpg high when compared to actual.
  7. Ecoboost owners who live in hilly areas… what is your avg mpg?

    I've charted mine since day one, on Fuelly. With quite a few hills, and 60/40 city/highway, I'm at 22.5mpg actual. If you go by what the truck's computer says, it's more like 25. It always reads high. The best actual was 24.9 mpg, and that was almost all highway.
  8. Dog Hair Help

    Adorable. I'll bet they are great dogs too.
  9. new tires and TPMS

    Yes to all. But I'll bet they still insist on "recalibrating" the TPMS's. It's a big money maker for them.
  10. 8 different types of fuses

    That is totally unnecessary over-complication. Ford is obviously determined to make owner servicing nearly impossible!
  11. XL steel rims offset? And are spacers OK?

    That's all I ever use now. They are fine.
  12. new tires and TPMS

    If the new wheels already have TPMS sensors, just put the new wheel/tires on the truck. The truck will automatically pick up the TPMS transmitters. Then it's a 5 minute job to assign the correct positions, if that';s important to you (this is whathey call "recalibrating"). They charge a lot for...
  13. Dog Hair Help

    Cute, are they dachshunds?
  14. XL steel rims offset? And are spacers OK?

    They make small (external) diameter lug nuts for just that reason. They are splined and use a very thin wall socket. I am shocked that the tire store doesn't know about these! https://backcountrybronco.com/cdn/shop/products/7cea913c059fce5a372010580746be85.jpg?v=1704648048
  15. XL steel rims offset? And are spacers OK?

    They make "hub-centric" rings to adapt a large wheel bore to a smaller hub. Adapters upon adapters... You might contact that company, I'll bet they can make any size/configuration.
  16. Dog Hair Help

    I was gonna say the same thing.
  17. XL steel rims offset? And are spacers OK?

    An 1 1/2" spacer will work, if it's the kind that is actually an "adapter". Here is one, but it's only up to 1 1/4" thick. https://ezaccessory.com/collections/5x4-25-108mm-wheel-adapters
  18. New 2025 Maverick XLT Hybrid w/ AWD - Eruption Green pictures!

    With BAP you'll still have a lot of blue inside, most of the hard plastic. Unless Ford has changed it since last year. I have BAP on mine, and love the black seats, and the blue/grey interior stuff goes nicely with the Azure-grey exterior.
  19. Well, it finally happened to me

    Ford has been throwing new batteries at faulty electrical systems for a couple decades now. I had 2 Fusions (not even hybids) an '07 and a '10. They both went thru 3 batteries , under warranty. I didn't keep either one long enough for them to be out of warranty. Seems as if the "techs" at the...
  20. New 2025 Maverick XLT Hybrid w/ AWD - Eruption Green pictures!

    Ford should never build anything green with a blue interior. That's awful, IMHO. Can't believe they don't give you a choice... it should be all black inside, or maybe even grey. Sorry. I still love the Eruption Green though.
