I'm picking up my XL today. Did a double take when I inspected the interior. The geometric plastic is gone, replaced with a more traditional look.

Thank you! Shows no recalls, so here's hoping. I don't have a vehicle right now so I'm betting on being able to pick this truck up in about a week...

Is there a tool to check if your maverick is affected by the stop sale? I have a deposit down on one and haven't heard back from the dealership...

Should I instead try to clue them in that forums are for discussions and to wish them good luck with their immutable library of Alexandria project?

You're welcome 🙂

Right, none of the pro's and con's here take into account personal preferences. The video's points are mostly to slow people's roll if they think hybrids are made with unicorn dust or something. I'm probably one of those people, so it helps to consider the fire risks, insurance costs, etc.

I stumbled across this video while looking at Maverick reviews, and I think some of it is really good, and some of it doesn't quite land for Mavericks. First off, watching the video does have me questioning things like maintenance costs with an engine + hybrid system, and longevity +...

Non political (hopefully) take: Now's the time to get the EPA to fix the gas can standards. The "always leaks when you pour" plunger contraptions are the epitome of bad design all around.

Thanks for sharing your view on it. I agree about the vapor contributing to the bloat. But the link in the quote shows the volume change due to temperature. It is a real thing.

Thank you for clarifying for me. I misread your post and thought you were putting VHT or window tint over the housing itself.

Thank you, I had mis-read ZEP as VHT (As in VHT Nightshade). But he did put something on, the lights housing are visibly darker.

It looks nice, but given how easily a rear end seems to total Mavericks I wouldn't want the insurance inspector seeing that I intentionally dimmed the brake lights...

You're right. But I got lucky and they refunded the deposit. Second post in the thread.

That would be great! My truck's window sticker has a blend date of 4/15/25. The website said "3-4 weeks" which seems generic. Would love to have it in two!

Gasoline changes volume in temperature too. That's why jerry cans get bloated when it's warm out or if a dummy (me) leaves it in the sun. https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/mc-mc.nsf/vwapj/VCF_Gasoline_Ethanol-Blends.pdf/$file/VCF_Gasoline_Ethanol-Blends.pdf So if you fill up at ~75 degrees F...

I've always looked at the stickers on gas pumps here in Alabama that say "Unit must start from 0.0, government does not check accuracy" and wondered just how accurate the little spindle counting gas flow is.

Yikes!

The fuel economy and seating capacity is what made up my mind.

They refunded the deposit. If you haven't seen my other thread, some context is that I've never bought new or worked with an auto dealer before. I felt a good bit of anxiety about running up against sales pitches, but the local dealer has actually been great to work with. Looking forward to...
