Dana, I have that same cover and that is the way mine looks, also.

I've owned a few rough riding trucks in my time, semi and dump trucks. Worst I had was a '79 International with leif spring suspension. That was brutal. And what made it even worse was it had a 5X4 transmission. A 5 speed front and 4 speed rear for 20 gears total. What a MF it was to shift. You...

John, that is a glitch with an app and not with your truck. I have the same issue with mine and I've Sync 3. I've read many others, with other brand vehicles also complain about it, too. It's not clear if it's a glitch with the Sirius app, or Android Auto, but it has been reported. Some said it...

Yup, understood. Without a wireless dongle, that monkeying with the cable every trip would stink. (y) For the OP's original question, today I tested changing the voice in Google Assistant, and it does change the voice that reads the texts. So, if they're using AA, that option does work.

MetalsGeek, one thing I do is have it set so Android Auto connects, but does not open. My Sync 3 radio stays as my default screen. If I do get a phone call, or text, AA will then open. Also, if I press the voice command button. Otherwise, the only way I know AA is connected is the option...

I had the opposite situation happen where I tried talking to someone else about their Maverick. A younger couple that live 4 blocks away, that happen to be on my dog walking route, brought home a new Maverick. He was just getting out of it and walking towards his house and I made a comment to...

RCS messages work thru the infotainment center when using Android Auto, at least thru Sync 3? Is that different with the other system (sync 2.5?) or when using an I-Phone and Car Play? I agree, pairing the phone directly to the vehicle does leave an awful lot to be desired.

Here's me being towed off the ice today because that dumb snowmobile lost spark. I should've left it in 1977! 🤔 Or, not strapped it in and let it roll out the back of my truck and into the ditch. ;)

Dave, nice looking Jeep! On the first pic with the blower, the pulley under the tensioner pulley, it doesn't look like there's much contact with the belt? Does the belt wrap around and contact it more on the bottom out of sight? If not, was there any issues with that pulley slipping due to...

PF, are you using Android or an I-Phone? If Android, you could try changng the voice of Google Assistant to see if that would change the voice that reads your texts. On my phone I go to setting > Google Service and Preferences > All Services > Search Assistant and Voice > Google Assistant >...

Last Call. Lee Ann Womack

I think this may be a first on MTC. A Maverick with a snowmobile in the back. I'm going to a vintage sled event tomorrow and didn't feel like loading the old sled on a trailer. It's a '77 Arctic Cat El Tigre' 5000, if anyones a sled head and wondered.

There's a rail with a lip that runs down the length of the bed on each side that hooks into the cover when closed to secure it. Those rails pivot to unlock the cover. Each rail has an arm that contacts the tailgate end of the cover when closed. Closing the very end then locks the cover in place...

I've a factory hard roll up cover and mine has frozen after a car wash. Once I learned how the mechanism worked I can now get it open if it's frozen, but I sure scratched my head the first time.

Hard to beat Dionne Warwick, but I think this lady does a pretty darn good job, too. (y) Not going to pretend I could pronounce her name. I think she just threw the alphabet in a blender. 🤔

I personally like the hitches with the ball welded on rather than the shank with a nut on the bottom. This is because I've rarely been successful removing a ball after its threads rust/seize up and I had a recent hitch that the ball came very slightly loose, but the threads were rusted/seized so...

I think that with this new information on yet another '25 feature not found on my '24, my wife will have no good reason to again deny my request for purchase approval of a new '25. I'm resubmitting my request right now. ;)

Ken, I don't know much about the '25 with Sync 4. Hopefully someone who has one can chime in. Dirk, the original poster, has a '24 Lariat with Sync 3. That's what I have and I did alot of research on that system. On that it is possible using the bootleg files from the site I linked. If that's...

Here's a link directly to the actual mod on the FMods website. https://www.fmods.net/community/dlext/details?df_id=7 As mentioned, you may have to join to see it.

Dirk, if you're comfortable with downloading bootleg programming into your Sync 3 system, and aren't concerned with the warrenty implications, I've read there is a way to do it. I can find the info on it, if you're interested. I'd personally not try it, but I'm not super saavy with programming...
