Gotta be the instant torque from the electric motor that is causing these premature failures on the Hybrids. Well, doesn't have to be but it is all I can think of at the moment. :ROFLMAO:
I'll never forget talking to a guy with a Santa Cruz at the gas pump. He made it perfectly clear to me he was driving his WIFE's SC because his truck was in the shop. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
The Maverick is light years better looking and it looks like a truck.
Never could see the point of dual zone climate control in a vehicle where the front 2 passengers are sitting less than 3 feet away.
I have 12 zones of heating in my house where each room has its own zone. That makes sense. Having a zone for each recliner in the TV room never did. :ROFLMAO:
This started about 3 months ago. Over this course of time about 5 or 6 times while trying to play music on my iPhone with CarPay, the music only plays on the phone not on the trucks speakers, necessitating a reboot of the infotainment system. Not a big deal as tech is always buggy but hoping...
I'm not interested as I despise LED running light war paint headlights. One of the things I liked, among many, with the XLT Maverick was no war paint running lights.
Now with that said, if one favors war paint style running lights, those are the best looking after market housings I have seen...
Tariffis concerning vehicles made in Mexico seem more centric toward Chinese made vehicles, especially EV's, wishing to undercut US made vehicles thus putting US automakers either out of business or severely curtailing them.
Trump & Ford will work things out and I do not believe there will be...
Most EVs sold — 78%, according to JD Power — are still in the premium segment. Truly affordable EVs are few and far between.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk talks about this a lot. "There are lots of people who want to buy our cars. They just can't afford it," he told investors last month, reiterating a...

YES!!! Preach it brother. Who made the rule that all these EV's need to be pimped out with the maximum level of tech and bells and whistles and cost a small fortune.
Maybe this is a big reason why EV sales have tanked recently.
I've owned IH Scouts, a Jeep Commando (the one...
Those of us that live where the roads are sanded and salted in the winter would be well advised to stay away from car washes that use a brush during those winter months at least. It is just common sense, which is not so common anymore after reading some of the threads in this post. :whistle:
If someone wants to sell a ton of these EV small trucks, it just seems to me it is not rocket science. Just copy Ford's model with our Mavericks and make a small, basically no frills truck.
Seems like all these EV's compete against each other on who can make the most glitzy feature laden tech...
That's right, I live in a working class area where many men and women served in the military and work with their hands. We do not have 60-70K to dump on some glitzy EV you left coast Hollywood types seem so willing to embrace. But, good for you. You live in an affluent neighborhood of LA with...
