Every recall completed, while parked at the house, by a Ford Mobile Service rep, arrived on time and completed in @ 30 minutes. No issues post recall. No fear…

Could be the new definition of fugly, rivaling the Tesla Turd Truck.

Doesn’t ’suck’, it rotates, as designed. 0 issues. [ There’s no way to verify this, but I’d bet there was blowback from Mopar fans when Chrysler produced their ‘push button shifters’ for their automatic transmissions, moving away from a ‘3 on the tree manual tranny’. Oh the horrors it must...

400 daze…(13 months)

Interacted with this ‘Fugly Angular Turd’ on the Tollway last week and as fate would have it, exited at an oasis and the driver had just plugged in as I rolled past. Wife not happy that I rolled down my window, erroneously thinking I’d have something to say. Nothing said, choosing instead to...

Unfortunately, both. It’s weird to be seated in the truck, locking & unlocking the doors with a key that’s “not detected”. Eventually the computer recognizes the fob and the ‘ready to drive’ message appears, triggering a sarcastic “Thanks HAL”. To date HAL hasn’t queued up “A Bicycle Built for...

Driving this computer can be maddening, enhanced by interactions with Ford Service (disservice?) Managers. This ‘No key detected’ glitch was 1 part of a Dealer Service Drop Off a month ago; all the other items were addressed, this one was not, because the Service Manager said “it’s not showing...

Similar concept, with a couple more tweaks: hinged in the center, with a latch to index and a top support to stabilize the joint deflection. Port & starboard ends have strips of all weather carpet glued to achieve a ‘snug’ fit when installed. A fun bit of functional whimsy!

This thread helped illustrate a void in both the printed and digital versions of the ‘22 Owners Manual. The Instructions in both stop at the step of ‘depress the left and right side tabs to fully open the glove box’. After that… nothing. No mention or pics of the process to open and remove...

Easily the Smoothest, most humorous well-written and subtle ‘Enough of this Madness!’ response I think I’ve ever read on MTC. Plus , I guessed #2 was coming. Thanks for the grin!

HAL: one alphabetical digit before the letters IBM, definitely not a coincidence, definitely evidence of subtle genius imho.

No regret, AWD not needed in my patch of earth.

Similar, just thinner, ‘holier’ and with a few easy hard points for connections.

Arguably 2 years late…

Posted in another thread… Mobile Service was scheduled and arrived on time to address both open recalls (under hood flash/boom/flame notification and the ‘no rear blinkies’), done and gone in 35-minutes. Mobile Services to address recalls minimizes hassle and inconvenience, definitely the way...

Waiting for the Mobile Service tech to arrive to handle this (and a different) recall. Hope the 2-for-1 goes as planned… [Edit update] Mobile Service Tech arrived on time, plugged in & booted up the rolling computer known as a Maverick, addressed the 2 open recalls, was finished and on his way...

Wonder what your brother feels about the assertion “no one likes a quitter”. Best suggestion viewed so far is ‘stay off forums’.

Resurrected from a long ago thread, of a Maverick T focused on THE distinctive Maverick element (1 of only 4 t-shirts in existence):
