I do believe in free speech, bud. I actually generally enjoy free speech and the cordial yet passionate exchange of opinions in this forum, thus why I joined a long while ago when they opened this forum up after lurking in the Bronco Sport forum. What I do find annoying is once again see a...

6 pages in and all I see are people from all spectrums of the conversation arguing about topics they are not experts in nor have their views back by vetted scientific/academic sources. Typical modern day world. I think it's time for mods to close down yet another pointless thread.

It's just weird for them to release 3 vehicles within the past 2 years with the C-clamp design to then just drop it. What's funnier is that the '24 F-150 looks closer in line to the F-150 Lightning which has styling cues from the 13th generation F-150. :LOL: Must be something special about...

Here you go.

So some leaks have come out showing a snippet of what the refresh Gen14 F-150 will look like. Mush to my surprise, it looks nothing like the rest of the Ford line-up. The Maverick set the new truck design trend for Ford, especially considering that the new Ranger and SuperDuty took after it's...

It's nice exterior wise, and I prefer the simpler interior design seen in the lower trims (smaller screens and all). The major downside is that there is no PowerBoost hybrid version; I'm curious what powertrains Toyota will unveil with the new Tacoma next week. For now, I'm back to rooting for...

The Escape was to escape my Focus that didn't want to focus on shifting gears correctly. Whoever came up with that PowerShift transmission idea needs to be stomped on by Draymond Green. 🤬

As a man who is about to marry a Haitian in two weeks, it's definitely you. 🍑 Just kidding, I tease. :ROFLMAO: But seriously, it's different strokes for different folks. I know guys at work that drool over heavy duty diesel pickups with 2+ inches of lift and wide stance tires. I...

As someone who thinks the Santa Cruz actually looks good, it's no surprise the Maverick is beating it. It's kind of Hyundai's fault. I know they delayed the SC for the new Tucson chassis that ended up solving many design problems with the SC, but this allowed Ford to step in and steal the...

Here's a service department recommendation. Sheehy Ford of Springfield, specifically Tina or Aimee. They have been my main go to service reps since 2014 when I got my Focus. They work with me, keep me up to date, and also keep it transparent with me on service needs. It sucks I moved and...

Gonna watch it later, but I think this video will be more of a testament to the 2.0L EcoBoost engine if anything. I own a 4G Escape with the 1.5L engine going on 72k miles. EcoBoosts are good as long as you at least follow the maintenance schedule.

Well if I remember correctly from that leaked doc, the Mach-E is supposed to move to another platform in a few years. It's still interesting to see what ford is cooking up.

Pics have already "leaked" online of the new Explorer EV set for Europe. It looks like a Ford Escape with F-150 headlights and taillights and a Bronco Sport C-pillar. I figured it would be interesting for this forum considering that the Maverick is based off of the Escape's platform, and this...

I doubt the Mav will get 7k towing. The Explorer with the V6 tops out at 5,600 lbs. Maybe the 4k bumps to 5k, but that's about it.

I believe Ford will keep the Ranger for at least another decade or so. As others had mentioned, the Ranger can tow, haul, and cross more terrain than it's Maverick equivalent. The Maverick, however, beats the Ranger in fuel economy, cabin comfort, and compactness. The Ranger, especially the...

Probably. Thus the lack of AWD powertrain for the hybrid. Probably thought the hybrids main customer would be fleet owners. Congrats on picking up your Maverick btw.

This might explain why Hyundai didn't launch the Santa Cruz with a hybrid as their hybrid vehicles give them plenty of credit room. For Ford (since this is a Maverick forum after all), this might add a layer to why they seem to be pushing for EVs. Maybe they're hoping to make enough credits...

Saw this on Ford Authority. Curious of you guys think this will stay south of the border or if it will come to North America. https://fordauthority.com/2023/01/ram-1200-prototype-spotted-will-rival-ford-maverick/

It seems like some roofing/gutter small businesses have turned to Christmas light installation to make some cash during the slow season. It's actually pretty genius considering they have the equipment to get up on high places and have people who are familiar with doing work that high. If I was...

I'm glad many of you all are sharing road trip information in a rather honest way. I hope to be able to get a good AWD PHEV in the next few years (as my Escape has put on almost 65k miles in just over 1.5 years). My fiance and I have extended family ranging from 350 to over 800 miles away. We...
