About 10% of all Maverick owners have registered on this site. And I think that is a pretty high number. 1% come here about daily. Also pretty respectable when you think about it. 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻

My father-in-law moved from a home to an apartment. We mowed his grass one last time, then he gave me the lawn mower. I didn't need it right away so I put it in storage. Before I put it in storage, I drained the fuel tank. Regular, 87 pump gas. This was Fall of 2020. I put about 3/4 of a...

Mavericks should be sold in a mandatory 2-pak. Ya know, one to drive, and one for parts. 🤔

2022 Hybrid Viewpoint from Windshield Park - Drive - Park - Drive - Park Your Comments? 6/6/2023 Update. Dealer says THIS is "normal". He's got two hybrids in the shop right now (no surprise there) and both do this. What are the chances he's got TWO ABNORMAL Mavericks at the same time?

My father in law has a 2018 RWD Toyota Tundra. We tried to put a ~7000 lb. tandem axle trailer in the backyard. This involved going uphill, in reverse, over green lawn. It was mid-day, 2 or 3pm. The grass was green but not wet with dew or anything. The Tundra wouldn't do it. Excessive wheel...

I live in CA (not Ca Canada) but will be visiting many areas of B.C. this summer, driving all the way into Alaska and Yukon Territory. One reason I got a Maverick Hybrid and not an EV was to go to remote places. I have the very Dark almost Black Alto Blue. The back windows look great on...

My hybrid came with the FREE LUNCH package. I can drive to work in the AM, stay the whole shift, then drive home in the PM. Or I can drive to work in the AM, drive to lunch and back about noon, then drive home in the PM. Driving to lunch is "free". My commute is 10.5 miles one way. My...

I started in EV on level ground. Accelerated 0-33 mph in EV. Gently braked back down to 3 mph. HV Battery started at 54%, drained to 46%, regenerated back up to 49%. Recovered 37.5%. Distance traveled, about 0.3 mile. Accelerated 0-25 mph in EV. Gently braked back down to 3 mph. HV Battery...

This is weird. But this is what can happen when everything is computer controlled. My radio will not shut off. I had to go into work. I could not stay and wait to see if it times out in 10 minutes or 20 minutes or 30 minutes or whatever. Stuff like this may account for some people's low/dead...

Dear site owner- Suddenly there is a malfunction at MTC. I am getting notifications about threads I have not subscribed to, nor have even read, no am interested in. Did this happen to anyone else?

Look at just how far we HAVEN'T come: A 1977 Pickup Truck at 33 MPG. Just saw one still on the road. And it had a towing ball. 😎 1200lb payload.

Big question mark. But this was weird. Sunny Dry Day about 60°F. A) Went to Drive Thru for breakfast B) Drove 3 miles to gas station with a car wash C) Refueled D) Started and drove through Car Wash in EV mode E) Left Car Wash in EV Mode F) Drove one block to Freeway On Ramp in EV mode...

What is maximum tie down strength? Well, according to the manual, we don't know. I've looked at the 2022 and 2023 and the page numbers are different but the info is cut & paste identical. Ford makes a distinction that the immovable ones are "anchors" and the movable ones, *if equipped" are...

At Pittsburgh Penguins Arena

First off I admit this is kind of a bonehead move. Not only did I do it once, I did it twice. I forgot about the first time and "Ops, I did it again." But I'm curious if you think this is also a bonehead move on Ford's part. I'm making a thread of this so hopefully I remember not to do it a...

Ladies and Gentlemen.... Please check your metal keys. I have an XLT. My metal key DOES NOT operate the tailgate! (Thankfully it does operate the driver's door.) No. 🚫 Yes. ✅

TESTED & CONFIRMED* HYBRIDS HAVE 16.5 Gallon Gas Tanks Hybrid Mavericks have 16.5 gallon gas tanks, but you are not supposed to run them dry. I did, once, to get the correct information confirmed. The computer uses 13.8 gallons for computing your range. 13.8 is the safe limit of fuel you can...

I'm sitting in my truck during lunch hour reading MTC. I'm in the driver's seat for just about 30 minutes without ever starting the truck, turning the key, or using any accessories. 30 minutes in: a bunch of clicking and clanking. No big deal. I've heard stuff like this before. It's like...

Area 51: Blue? Or Green? Since Area 51 is about aliens and everyone knows aliens have green skin (obviously) this is therefore a green color. Or is it? You're going to have to choose one or the other when you register in most states. Own one or not, Vote! Vote just for fun. What came to...
