  1. First Time Snow Storm Performance Review (AWD Maverick in Wisconsin) 👍

    I drove from Madison to Boise in May and hit a blizzard in Wyoming, dumped a foot, and I had my Continental ProContacts on. Never broke loose with or without traction control on the freeway at 75. I was as impressed as you with the way the Maverick took the snow and slush. Only problem I had...
  2. Garage Door Opener Solution...

    I have the same deal with my chamberlain door. I finally just went back to the original app for the door opener and it works perfectly. I can set up the geo fence but I chose not to just in case someone got my phone and knew where I live. Not paranoid, I just know the government has some...
  3. An Even Better Handheld Radio Mount (And Then Some) Using Dashboard Cubby

    I have a BaoFeng and it works pretty well with the added mobile 18" antenna. I just got my first 3D printer so I am, of course, printing everything I can find for the Mav. I like the FITS cubby as I can make a mont for my Garmin system, my cell phone, and my mobile radio. I am currently...
  4. DIY console button cover

    I want one of those cup holder cushions, hell I want to put one in the cubby hole blank out. Hmm, I do have a 3D printer now, guess I better learn the software.
  5. Mabett | Maverick Side Marker Signal Light Coming Soon!

    I agree about the lighting in the center, though I have an XLT and like the badging, how about the MTC Logo <long horns> in the center? I really like the idea of connecting it up to the turn signal, but wonder how much draw the blinker system can take. Yeah an LED draws smaller amount of...
  6. New Ecoboost Owners + Engine Cover

    I I had a 69 Torino 2+2 / Fastback that had a winsor 351. I had a devil of a time making horsepower above the standard due to the oiling system and the jam fit rocker studs. Made it close to impossible to put in adjustable solid lifters, which were more dependable than the hydraulics which...
  7. 3D Printed Tailgate Hole Caps

    yes. That one is big enough to hold my 1911 or Python but I don't take it when I travel anymore because I need to leave it in the truck and I don't like the idea of it being seen from the passenger window. I would really like something with a spring latch drawer that I could mount in the...
  8. Maverick Truck Club Window Stickers

    Yeah I bought some great FJB stickers from this one and she said she will do custom stickers so at Etsy contact: PurpleLeopardDesigns, contact Lauren Eades. Great person and she has a small shop so things like this are perfect for her. Nope I don't have any relation to her or the shop just...
  9. Fire Department "Chief's Truck" Maverick Build

    I am going to have to keep my eye out for that one. I have to drive through Meridian twice a day going to work on chinden and 5 mile from Middleton. I have seen a few more Mav's since I bought min in January of 22 but that is pretty cool that the chief has a Mav decked out with the MFD badges.
  10. 3D Printed Tailgate Hole Caps

    Ya know what would be great is someone to print a storage box that fits in the cubby behind the bottle holder. A spring loaded cubby box would be great to stash your wallet and stuff in when you go to the beach and no one could see it. I was thnking of making one out of sheet metal to keep my...
  11. The Old Switcheroo!

    After looking at the service manual, the block heater simply screws into a port at the upper back side of the block, so about midway down with all the plastic that is on the top of the engine. I found a block heater at Jegs as well as Rock Auto. If you want a factory type unit you can order it...
  12. The Old Switcheroo!

    If you look around you can find the factory engine heater, probably at 4WDParts but you can most likely order one from Summit. I have been able to find parts in the most unusual places that are identical to the original equipment. Being in Western Wyoming you will probably want to get one. I...
  13. Cut a hole under 2.0 engine shield for oil change accessibility?

    It is better to deal with the hassel of removing the shield before changing oil than cutting into it. The structural loss after cutting and potential added weakness from oil penetration is not worth it. In my opinion. The dirt and crud splashed up onto the engine over time makes it more...
  14. Aftermarket Sun Shade?

    I purchased the WeatherTech sunshades for all windows and they work really well. I use some small bottles between the visor and sunshade to keep it against the windshield but they really do reduce the heat in the cab during the summer, and with all windows covered it is almost bearable to get...
  15. 80 mph is top speed on Maverick? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS. Warnings & Bans Handed Out]

    I drove across Wyoming last spring and had the cruise set at 92 so, not sure what Mav you have but my XLT AWD Eco can do 100+ The digital speedo stops at 99 but the analog dial, which is silly because it is a digital gauge, clocks above 100, and I have the tow package so lower gears.
  16. Can you add 4K Tow Package after the fact?

    Well there you go. I had no idea that they would put in the smaller radiator in an "Off Road Performance" rig. Absolutely figured they would use the highest cooling radiator and intercooler available. Something to be said for opting the XLT over even Lariat edition.
  17. Can you add 4K Tow Package after the fact?

    I got the 4K tow and you can add it aftermarket but it doesn't have the same look and quality. If there is a cover on the drivers knee panel you may be able to add the brake adjust, and I would imagine you may be able to Forscan in the Tow package software but it would take a major chunk of the...
  18. 'Hacked' Thule TracRac SR for Maverick (with cantilever)

    I would absolutely like to know how you pulled it off. I have the hard trifold tonneau and I can see the room for a thin aluminum T-track but it is very close to the edge and with the snow and splash I get in the winter I really want to keep it away from the freeze and thaw which usually causes...
  19. Monument Valley and Four Corners roadtrip & camping with the Maverick

    I lived in Southern Utah and Northern Arizona for a few years and it is some of the most spectacular color scenery I have been in. And the four corners monument is kind of cool when you think about the folks that did the geological survey when the states were created. Even though there were...
