  1. Lifepo4 battery use in olace of a 12v regular battery

    But I paid 2k for alternator extended warranty coverage! I want my money back. Just kidding. :ROFLMAO:
  2. Lifepo4 battery use in olace of a 12v regular battery

    I am aware. I drive a hybrid. But sure, if you want to pedantic. Feel free to sub in the word "HV Battery" for alternator. That is probably the most accurate since the traction motor/generator charges the HV, which charges the 12v. Blah blah blah. Either way, if there is an integrated BMS...
  3. Lifepo4 battery use in olace of a 12v regular battery

    If the BMS is in the battery, and can control the charge profile, then sure. The battery itself would essentially be calling for whatever voltage and amperage that it wants from the alternator. But on the Maverick the BMS is separate from the battery and can't be modified to use a LifePo4...
  4. 24MY Maverick Stop Sale - How Do You Plan on Renegotiating?

    Or for dealerships that have a rental or loaner arm, they sell them to themselves for use as loaners or rentals. Then sell them as used when they hit 20 or 30k miles.
  5. Lifepo4 battery use in olace of a 12v regular battery

    No. The charging profiles are completely different between Lead Acid and Lithium Iron Phosphate. You can't modify the BMS in the truck, so it is going to always charge it as if it was a Lead Acid. Look at the info and charts at this link to see what I mean. It won't explode on you or...
  6. What is this switch for?

  7. I have a developer/beta version of ForScan that has the 2025!

    It is the same on the 2025 as all the prior years. Same coding either by the EZ method (drop-down menus) or by the manual numerical/hex value edits.
  8. CSX says "released by shipper" last July!

    Just means the last time CSX tracked that railcar, it was unloaded in California. My 2025 Mav railcar tracking said something similar, but it was unloaded in Alberta Canada and only about 2 months earlier. Alberta is not close to Hermosillo, for those of you who are geographically challenged. ;)
  9. Did programming new keys change for 2025

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......I clicked that link and it is the exact same one I bought in January (and failed to program). I wonder if you got lucky. That code is not the same as the code on my keys..... But I have an 2025 Maverick XLT AWD Hybrid, so maybe I need to go back out and try again!
  10. Camera recall …any news [update: recall issued]

    That might be the nicest thing anyone has said about me in years!
  11. Camera recall …any news [update: recall issued]

    Wow....overreact much? I appreciate a dry joke/dry humor as much as the next guy, but don't insult our collective intelligence by claiming what you commented was a joke or meant to be humorous. You are the 10,003rd person to make a comment about the "good old days" related to this camera...
  12. Camera recall …any news [update: recall issued]

    Doctors used to endorse smoking, and asbestos was used as fake snow at Christmas time. Pulling out the "I survived" claim is a very weak argument against advances in safety (and medical) regulations.
  13. So what happens with the 2025?

    Correct. But the lazy side of me wants to make it so that I don't need to go in and slide that selector each time I start the truck. It resets to "turn off after 30" every time you turn on/off the truck, sort of like the drive mode defaulting back to "normal" each time you start the truck. In...
  14. Window washer empty icon

    From what I remember when seeing a diagram of the repair process, the sensor is not that close to the bottom of the reservoir. So it alarms prematurely when there is still a good quantity of fluid in there. Which also explains why it alarms when you go down or up a hefty incline. The sensor is...
  15. Window washer empty icon

    Ohh man does it airlock...... I fill to the brim, then rock my Maverick and can get it to burp A TON of air out of the reservoir 10 or 12 times before if stops. Major design flaw.
  16. Power meter question on 2025 models

    That is my theory.
  17. Power meter question on 2025 models

    Yes. You will see that sometimes when it goes from full electric to gas, those blue bars will be 8 or 10 high, with only a few grey above (making the total 12 or 14 bars). And then as you watch, the blue drop one by one until it is all grey bars and no more blue bars. The more "umph" you need...
  18. Power meter question on 2025 models

    Yeah, I believe the small more blue'ish bars are showing the traction motor assisting the gas engine, which is represented by the grey bars. The more bars, the higher the "RPM" that you would normally see on a classic tachometer. For me, those small more blue'ish bars go away pretty quickly as...
  19. 2025 Maverick. Do you use the funnel to fill your gas?

    The special funnel is only needed/used when filling from a non-standard gas pump that may not have the correct diameter pour spout. So for example, if using a gas can. This is because the cap-less fuel/filler neck inside the truck needs a very specific diameter funnel in order to open the gas...
  20. 2024 Hybrid - Auto Start/Stop not working

    Yes it does, and you even said it does. You said " When I am in electric mode when I stop, the engine stays off, but started a couple of times while I was just sitting there. " That is literally how the Auto Start/Stop works. It examines the power needs of the truck and turns the gas engine...
