I basically did the same thing, tapped the harness for power to both a 12v to USB (Dashcam) and to feed the KIA Homelink/Auto-Dimming mirror. Works like a charm.

Part of your issue is the stock Continental that come on the XL/XLT models, they also came stock on the Subaru Outback and they do ride firmer than just about any model Michelin tire, or many other makes of tires. They also get hard and slick in cold weather faster than some other tires, and...

Anybody install one after the fact? - Been toying with the idea, so it would allow the truck to use electric mode quicker on cold mornings. We're getting a cold snap here in the mid-Atlantic, although nothing like Canada and parts of the mid-West get, but cold none the less. - But the seats &...

YES, Don't forget the keypad, depending on trim, although gone for '24. Haven't used it yet, but so glad I opted for the remote start option, for times when Ford-Pass is down, or not responding right away....or the truck has gone into deep-sleep for some reason. After thinking about it, I had...

I drive my step-daughter's Escape, which sits a tad lower, onto the curb between the neighbor & our driveways, using the driveway apron as a ramp. Vehicle ends up level, and the road crown gives plenty of space to unzip all the fasteners. I'll do the same with the Maverick, or pull out a set...

Something I noticed monitoring my battery after performing a 'Recovery' using my little 10 amp charger/conditioner (nearly 8 hours mind you) is that I don't believe the truck even attempted to send a charge into the battery until it fell to around 60%, then brought it back up. The monitor...

If I ever get my 3D-Priner re-squared and leveled, I was thinking of trying to make a set using TPU, as its somewhat more flexible than most of the other materials. PLA is probably the most brittle, although one of the easier ones to print with. Haven't done a huge amount of 3D Printing, but...

Just some fuel to the no towing package, to keep in mind the Hybrid models actually have a larger cooling system than the non-4k Tow Pkg EB2.0 models. - This is the engine cooling capacity, and not including the fluid going into the second battery/heat exchanger system. The Hybrid is something...

Just performed a 'Repair' or 'Recovery' using my smart charger for 6+ hours yesterday, and the manual indicates it generally takes roughly 4 hours. But it did 100% SoC overnight, so I don't believe its a drain issue. (For the record no deep sleeps the first four months of ownership, only after...

It's the right amount of truck for most ordinary people would be a better statement. Lets face it, most of us aren't towing huge trailers, or having to haul 2500 lbs of large objects in the bed, making the Maverick the perfect vehicle. Most of my driving is commuting, couple of road trips, and...

Just an expansion joint connection. The side rails of my tonneau have a high-density foam along the bottom, which prevents is from leaking at that area when the clamps are tightened, so not an issue.

Anybody installed a larger battery on their Hybrid? - It appears you can possibly cram a H5 sized battery, which is 1/2 an inch taller and slightly longer into the space under the seat. The thought is those tend to have 90-100 minutes of reserve capacity, if not greater, which is more than...

It should jump just fine and run to get to work. Haven't had to use it, but keep a small jump start pack under the seat, even in my previous vehicles. - Just remember to charge it at least once every month or two. My suspicion is the goofy BMS setup, that keeps the battery no higher than 80%...

I have the exact same raised black letter, looks awesome on Atlas Blue. Subdued by nice touch is what I wanted, and they look great.

Haven't had any issues with the exact same Adams Graphene Advanced on mine. It did the rainbow effect, buffed off super easy, and still looks great months later. I waterless wash with their CS3 to touch it up, as it also leaves some graphene/ceramic behind. That said, I had a HORRIBLE...

Thinking the same thing, I'd venture to bet at least half the members here will be buying on if available in their truck color. I'm pretty safe looking for something close to Atlas Blue, given the prototype is in some shade of blue.

Common issue, many of us think the battery is too small or of low quality. They all seem to be made in either Spain or China, and both have the issue. (Mine is Spain, but have seen others state their battery in made in China). - I think it's the very short reserve coupled with a rather low...

Probably going to jinx myself, but so far I don't believe I've scratched the interior in just under 7 months on my '23 Lariat. I do wipe it down with Turtle-Wax Graphene Interior spray monthly, so maybe the graphene helps prevent scratches. Yes, it's all plastic and not going to be confused...

Depends on your definition of 'Full Sized Spare'. Ford apparently means it's not a temporary spare (donut), with a 50 mph or 50 mile limitation. The rim will not match, and the tire will still be slightly undersized. Wishful thinking would be along the lines it would be a perfect match to...

Depends on what oil & filter, and if they'd let me supervise (watch) to ensure it's done correctly. I trust the oil change guys at most places about as much as I trust a shady used car dealer. :)
