I think 3/32 depth is the "break" point? Anyway, on weight. I have a 2003 Grand Cherokee 4x2 that gets only highway. It is a heavy car. Tires wear out quicker on it. BUT, the upside was when I recently got new ones I received a rebate from the manufacturer since the mileage on them was enough...
While I understand sometimes the need for winches if you spend lots of time where you either need to help people out of trouble or are in the business of doing so, just to add it makes me ask; what is your insurance company going to say about this (hide it from them and you are in deep doodoo)...
Definitely glad it wasn't worse! But, fact is the more we take away where wild animals live the more this will be and the more they will decide to be in our yards and on our front porches with this including bears and cougars and ... well, we can't blame them, really.
Mavericks seem to attract accidents! What a bummer, your loss!
And, while I am not sure about how this stuff works in the present day, but in the past the encouragement was things like soreness, etc, was a good reason to never sign off/close out on the insurance claim. Might that be in play here???
Ok, gotta ask: You say "other driver was the only occupant" but then refer to that "only occupant" as "they", "their"? Did "only occupant" request to be considered plural?
My thoughts? In respect to AWD, FWD, RWD, since 1979 we have lived in Fort Wayne Indiana with only a RWD then in the panhandle of Nebraska with quite often not heavy snow but with RWD cars at first and then a FWD Chevy Cavalier, then just north of Kansas City Missouri with that same Cavalier...
Oh, and running lights?
Two lanes each way with left turn lanes also.
I had a green.
About 4 to five car lengths back from the white line of the opposing left turn lane was a guy in a Mustang obviously intending to run the red light.
I (and other cars) exercised our legal right to go through the...
Very happy it is fixable and you are ok - except for shoulder!
Question: Did they look REAL CLOSE at the left front suspension?
Suggestion: make them put on all new factory parts ... no bondo!
And, the distracted driver thingie?
About 2010 I was on I-70 and was passing a vehicle with a bumper...
I wonder if this is a "fine print" thing.
When we ordered our 2022 Mav we added as "accessories":
1. a trailer hitch,
2. Maverick logo floor mats,
3. and a decal for the lower body side.
As far as installing:
1. the hitch (far less in cost when added at production) was installed in...
We had Ziebart do the coating on our Mav, and it is warrantied for life as long as we bring it in yearly for "maintenance". Both it and our 2003 Grand Cherokee are undercoated by them also.
I do everything I can to not use a drive thru car wash. I wash and chamois both myself. Have a utility...
I have a 2.0.
FWIW on another Maverick site when I went to change oil first time I was going to go with Pennzoil full synthetic. A user responded with:
"I'll bet it DOES NOT meet the Ford Spec!"
Another user responded with:
"It doesn't matter if an oil is a syn-blend or full-syn for our...
Just don't know if I am sold on putting a cover on an engine when for some reason Ford didn't put one on. Was it just to save money or did a test show a cover caused more heat retention than they wanted under certain conditions? Anyone out there know for sure???
Just wish they looked like a mustang. :cry:
But, seriously, the main host of a radio talk show I listen to here in the Indianapolis area was given one of these to drive for a bit by a Ford dealer that advertises. His comment: the unending continuous torque was awesome!
Changed my EcoBoost oil yesterday. Gotta admit, wasn't paying attention so it was at about 5,000 this time. But my "analysis" was it "looked" like typical drain oil, and the old school "smell" test netted nothing more to me than what typical drain oil "smells" like. I am using Motorcraft 5/30...
