  1. Article - Next gen Maverick is very important to Ford

    The (worthless) article mentions absolutely NOTHING about the "Next gen Maverick" (being very important to Ford). It also appears to be more than a year old.
  2. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

    Radar detectors are not just handy to prevent speeding tickets, they also often alert to police presence in city or rural traffic - for example, coming up to a Stop sign or right turn on a red light, an alert can "remind" you to make a 100% complete stop - years ago I got nailed for a...
  3. Free Service Manuals

    Well I think Ford should offer original owners a service manual at no charge. Being that they need to produce them for technicians anyway, it would not cost them anything more to offer PDF versions of the manual. And considering the constant hefty price increases over the years it would be a...
  4. Name Something Your Truck Hauled That Made People Stare

    Full-size sofa + Love Seat:
  5. Another windshield cracked...

    I would say good luck finding a glass company that would install a new windshield without requiring the calibration. Furthermore, it's very unlikely that an insurance company would approve a claim for just the glass replacement.
  6. Kicker Key and Sub bad install

    Wow, that's unbelievable!! Just curious, have you looked up their Google or other reviews? Based on your experience I would think they would have a lot of negative reviews.
  7. Kicker Key and Sub bad install

    How did they secure the Hideaway, did they run screws into the floorboard? If so you may need to seal those holes when you remove it.
  8. Kicker Key and Sub bad install

    My Kicker amp is set to 120Hz for the bypass filter, suggested by a tech who evaluated my install. Note that I have not changed any settings via Forscan.
  9. Kicker Key and Sub bad install

    Yes, I would move the Key and put it above the glovebox. I would leave it "loose" until you adjust all of the settings. And of course move the sub to behind the rear passenger seat. For the harness, get the version with the subwoofer harness (Kit 11-2). I put together an illustrated PDF document...
  10. Kicker Key/Hideaway Sound System and Speaker Upgrade Issues

    The "cut/hack wires" install method is the main reason that I did not want to use a shop, plus I wanted complete control over the install myself (especially removing/installing the trim) and importantly I wanted to be able to easily "reverse" the install in the future should I sell or trade-in...
  11. Kicker Key/Hideaway Sound System and Speaker Upgrade Issues

    The harnesses that come with the key are open-ended, a connector on one end to go to the amp, and bare wires on the other end. They do NOT "plug in" to the factory stereo/wiring - they can't directly plug into to the stereo as there are endless vehicle wiring variations.
  12. Kicker Key/Hideaway Sound System and Speaker Upgrade Issues

    It sounds like they did not use a custom harness, which is surprising, makes the install so much easier, especially if they would have used a harness with the 4-wire subwoofer connections. I would take a look behind the center trim to see how they tapped into the factory radio harness. A custom...
  13. Front camera re-calibration (replacing windshield, etc)

    I, for one, would not trust myself, nor anyone else, to perform "self alignment" on something as important as the camera. And due to liability reasons, I would assume many or most shops would not replace a windshield without performing the alignment.
  14. Front camera re-calibration (replacing windshield, etc)

    I just had the windshield replaced on my 2022 XLT due to a large rock ship. Fortunately I only had to pay a $100 deductible, as the bill came to just over $1,000. The camera alignment portion was $275.00.
  15. how times have changed..

    On U.S. models, clockwise. On Canadian models, counterclockwise. It's because from the border northward, the ambient air is cooler.
  16. No more hate for the 2025 facelift's new front end design?

    The design was actually submitted by some third graders from a local school who entered a Ford-sponsored contest, and won.
  17. No more hate for the 2025 facelift's new front end design?

    Universally praised???, Say what? The only "award" I recall seeing was on a "Ugliest vehicle refreshes" list.
  18. No more hate for the 2025 facelift's new front end design?

    There are MANY factors that have played into the continuing successful sales of the Maverick, the goofy front design was certainly not on the list. In fact, sales would have been even HIGHER had they not ruined the front end.
  19. No more hate for the 2025 facelift's new front end design?

    One can only hope that the rookie designer(s) of the repulsive refresh are no longer working at Ford and that they have taken jobs at Toyota or Hyundi.
