This is good stuff, great info. We recently had a new bronco sport big bend as a rental with the basic audio setup thats similar to the mavericks non B&O sound system. I noticed its pretty weak and muddy sounding even with maxing out the bass/treble/and midrange about 3/4.
I think I'd...
Cool. I was wondering how the engine cover foamy thing fit over the Burchers catch can hoses. I have both among other things waiting in boxes for my maverick. Did you have to mod the cover any?
Ive noticed on our 2020 escape that there is a thin spot of paint on the one of the rear doors where you can see through it certain light but not unless you look for it. Otherwise there are no chips from driving.
Yep. I currently drive a 2016 escape SE with the 1.6 EB. Has the "covinience pkg" which includes the larger sync 3 touchscreen, reverse sensors, roof rack, dual zone auto climate, and power seats. Its a nice vehicle. I bought it from a southern state (no road salt) from a family member who...
I prefer Line-x over rhino. Had plenty of work provided trucks over the years and they seem to be easier to wash out and holds up well.
When I ordered my maverick in January of 2022 the factory SIBL had been substituted with the hard drop in but now that I had to re-order for a 23 I...
My January 22 order is a 23 re-order now. You're just gonna have to wait. As an experiment, we went up to the dealer on the final day of the order banks being open on the 21st and ordered a second base XLT EB FWD with no options. It'll be interesting to see which one schedules and gets...
Since I have all this stuff waiting in the garage for my maverick and nothing but time.......had a friend that owns a powder coating biz coat my brackets for the Ford tonneau cover and the DeeZee tailgate assist gloss black. Looks nice!
I know that the batches Ive seen coming in at the dealership I work next to have had SIBL in them. I have no idea when they were ordered obviously but I can say when I originally ordered mine on 1/24/22 the SIBL was no longer able to be ordered so my XLT lux was to be spec'd with a drop in...
Ive not driven one because none were available to drive. I have sat in a couple.....folks Ive seen that were getting in theirs at a parking lot and striking up a conversation. Didn't want to seem creepy or weird but they seemed happy to show me their maverick.
I had that ordered all along. I want the heated seats, steering wheel, and mirrors. And the bed lighting and plug back there will be handy for my uses.
Thats actually what I initially ordered and wanted. A FWD Ecoboost. Don't need AWD really and don't trust the hybrids yet after the issues we are now encountering with the wife's 2020 2.5 hybrid escape. Same engine and hybrid system the Mavericks have. Its been spending a lot of time at...
With the changes I did lose the XLT lux pkg items such as the bed liner and the tie down rails on the side of the bed that are now stand alone options but didn't opt to add those back in at an extra cost.
I'm not sure how their system works exactly but as a a leftover 2022 that never got scheduled the dealers are supposed to assign us a higher build priority above any new 2023 orders that get taken. Lower the number, the higher the priority build above higher numbers. Obviously with...
No. You have to completely start over. There's no "leftover" 2022 consideration except the private offer you get at the time of sale when you get your order. The dealers are responsible for putting in your order as a priority 10 above any other new 2023 orders that should be assigned a...
