  1. Dodge ram 1000

    Put in more power and level it a bit and it would sell, assuming they can produce them.
  2. Dodge ram 1000

    I have a 2.4 Trailhawk Renegade. Overall nice rig but it would need serious changes to compete with the Maverick. 180hp isn’t enough as is., the handling would have to be improved and it only has a 2000 pound tow capacity. So they would not only have to add a couple of feet for the box, and...
  3. Would you Flip your Mav?

    For me I’d still lose due to taxes…
  4. Toyo Open Country AT3 245/70r17

    Tires look good, when’s the lift/leveling kit getting installed?
  5. Ecoboost sound

    No worries, I’m not a troll though the wife might argue that at times. Iā€˜m a dormant gearhead (for a long time) that has successfully buried those desires but this truck has me planning and thinking. Extended warranty, or screw it and have at it… That is the question. I said I’d never build a...
  6. Ecoboost sound

    Yes, serious and thanks for the explanation. I haven’t owned a turbo, let alone been involved with the newer street scene, if that’s what it’s even called…I’m old, deal with it, lol.
  7. Ecoboost sound

    BOV noise? Whats that?
  8. Velocity Blue Maverick Modified w/ Cab Marker Lights, Hood Scoop, Cab Roof Spoiler, Tailgate Spoiler, Black Tailgate Applique, Fender Flares

    Like any styling exercise the results become polarizing. overall, very nice. some I like, some I question and some, well not for me. But that’s usually the case. The cab lights are the number one question; are they stick on (battery powered) or were holes drilled? I suspect holes and for me...
  9. What is it Trucklette, Compact Pickup or Small Sports Truck

    Why label it, it has its feet in so many genres it can be whatever you want it to be. Isnā€˜t that this generations kick, no labels? One of the best reasons the name ā€œMaverickā€ is appropriate. I’ll just label mine as ā€œnextā€ as it will be a car, a truck and whatever else I need of it at the time...
  10. Steel Bumper Options?

    SEMA had a lifted Bronco Sport with steel tube bumpers and it looked good. No idea where they are on actually selling them or if the Maverick is on the horizon but maybe in the future?
  11. Chase Rack / Sport Bar options?

    Not yet, but that SEMA truck already showed what is possible with a 3D printer so I would think in time someone will make something to take your money.
  12. Rust Issues

    I don’t see anything the dealer will entertain. Yes, you have some rust. No they didn’t make a stainless steel truck. The pictures show normal ageing I’ve seen on everything ever manufactured. While I might be wrong, the paint scraping on the pinchweld looks like someone used a jack to jack it...
  13. Is Production Anxiety a Thing? Is it new?

    Love the forum, so much information. So I read the threads, get semi educated on the subject, watch lots of YouTube’s and decided to test drive the new offering. Loved it but not exactly what I wanted, so with a clear and logical mind I decided to order my truck. I never did this before so I...
  14. Spacer lift vs. Spring lift

    There is no reason a whole new chassis is required or the change to a longitudinal drivetrain. You are really looking at what, 4 longer CV shafts, 4 coil overs, a bunch of control arms and a few brackets/tie rods/Etc. For a custom one-off you are probably light at 50k… And I would agree that...
  15. Wondering if I should get a tonneau or not

    I’ve had soft covers in the past, not big on them for several reasons. This time around I’m trying a tri-fold. From the ones I’ve seen they will keep your stuff drier, but not always dry.
  16. Subframe Connectors

    You know somebody will offer a back half kit eventually…
  17. Spacer lift vs. Spring lift

    The factory limitations will allow a moderate, affordable lift kit but will be limited to a couple of inches. Spring or spacer is moot, what’s quicker to install will win market share. Either way time will tell on where the line in the sand is on wear and detrimental handling so anyone going...
  18. FX4 vs Non-FX4 ride quality comfort

    Give me 6 months and I’ll have an answer for you, lol… My test drive is identical to my ordered truck except for FX4 and colour.
  19. painting calipers red with black rims.

    Give it a year and those big brake kits will come in the colour of your choice.
