I picked up these vent vane trim pieces from Temu for less than $2.00 and thought I’d give them a try. They are simply cut to length and pried open enough to be slid in place. As you can tell blue is my color. They come in varied colors. I’ll be adding.some LED strips to the footwells for added...

Today I installed a bracket and quick release mechanism for my vehicle fire extinguisher under the driver’s seat. The bracket holding the extinguisher I obtained from AliExpress at a cost of about $10. When the silver knob shown in the photos is pulled out, the extinguisher, still attached to...

I'm just now starting to set up my '24 XLT hybrid, luxury package, 360, as I want. I have no experience with ForScan and, to be honest, I don't see enough utility for me to warrant investing in the hardware and software. That said, I am very interested in adding TSR capability to my truck. I...

I spent a good part of the last two days first installing Mabett’s side marker lights and then attempting to get the passenger side marker to work. Prior to beginning the install, I reviewed Fred’s Garage’s step-by-step YouTube installation video. (Fred thanks for producing the video.) I...

I recently took delivery of a ‘24 hybrid XLT with the DIBL that comes with the luxury package. I quickly spent some time today looking at and planning for a number of mods for the truck bed including wiring a marine switch panel, LED strips, and additional rear facing LED pods. I was looking...

Traded in my '23 hybrid XLT, and picked up my '24 hybrid XLT, lux, 360. Now the fun begins!

My first Maverick, a ‘22 XLT hybrid, I lost in an accident. I was fortunate to find an available ‘23 XLT (no options) just across the line into our neighboring state. It was not my choice of color, nor did it have the options I wanted. I always viewed it as temporary until I could get a ‘24...

Does the Maverick share the same third brake light housing with any other Ford model. F-150? I would like to trade out the OEM light for one with a smoked lens cover. I find any number of third party products for every other truck, just not for the Maverick.

As requested, I have added photos to my earlier post entitled "This time, I won't say I'm finished". I have tried to include photos for all the items on my list of accessories and mods. I welcome your comments. Many of those things on my '23 will find their way to my '24 when it arrives.

You may recall that my '22 VB XLT hybrid was lost in an accident before my first year was up. I was fortunate in finding a '23 iconic silver XLT as an immediate replacement. I have spent some time installing those items I was able to recover from my first Maverick and repeating a number of...

I recently installed a 50" dynamic under the hood light strip and three six-LED pods as Raptor lights at the top of the grill. I tapped into the parking light's power wire coming out the back of the driver side headlight unit. Independently, both work and look great. The problem is with both...

After I lost my ‘22 XLT hybrid (Velocity Blue, Lux, 360) in an accident, I picked up on a ‘23 XLT hybrid (silver, no options) as my temporary ride. I have an order in on a ‘24 Maverick in the color and with the options I want (XLT, Atlas Blue, Lux, 360). Regrettably, that means a DIBL rather...

I , perhaps in error, assumed I would find the '24 ordering guide available today online or through my dealer. When should I expect to find it available?

I’m starting to set up my new replacement Maverick with what I was able to salvage from my totaled Maverick before the insurance company hauled it off. It’s not as fun as the first time around. I have access to a free 48” tailgate light bar by Reno. My new truck is a XLT hybrid without a...

At the end of last month, I lost my ‘22 Maverick (VB, hybrid XLT, Lux, SIBL, 360) totaled in an accident. Since then, I have followed a scheme employed by others to find their Mavericks. I reached out to every dealership within 100 miles inquiring whether they had any inventory or expectations...

After having lost my ‘22 Maverick in an accident, I’m now searching in earnest for its replacement. My ideal would be to match what I had, an XLT, hybrid,, VB, Lux, 360, SIBL, but I realize I will have to settle for what might be available. I understand and appreciate I’m in competition with...

Last weekend, my Maverick was involved in an accident at a traffic light-controlled intersection. Both I and the other driver claimed we had the green light. With both of us entering the intersection, his Tundra with a cattle guard struck my front left fender with his right front quarter. Both...

I'm looking at adding a set of 3" LED light pods to the rear bumber. My options are to tie into the reverse light wiring so that the pods come on automatically when the truck goes into reverse. The alternative is to wire the pods to a switch inside the cabin drawing power from the 12V battery...

My XLT hybrid lux has a single pocket behind the front passenger seat. Is that the same for the XL and Lariat?

I had my Maverick back to the dealer for service. Top of the list was completing the side curtain airbag recall. I also had two items I expected to be covered by the warranty. The first was a common complaint shared by many, brakes grabbing during light braking below 6 mph (TSB 23-2060). The...
