  1. Terrible gas mileage!

    I would assume that you ignored the information about the break-in period for your truck? Keep an eye on your mpg if your obsessed with it but don't expect improvement until after about 4,000 miles. Don't expect good mileage during colder temperatures with this truck. The truck uses warmed...
  2. Maverick Bull / Nudge / Brush Bar ?

    I forgot to mention that the center of this grille guard had a removable plate for the camera to see through. I have not removed it yet on the photo.
  3. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    I drive pretty much as I always have with one hand on the wheel. Unless the situation is demanding where the road conditions dictate. I keep a light neutral touch on the steering wheel that the system does not always detect. The weight prevents those annoying messages asking me to do what I'm...
  4. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    Coo-coo, coo-coo. At first I thought, OK, here's a real whacko. If we already own the truck, then why take an Uber? There's little to no public transportation available in the country. That's why I own my Maverick. Well, I have six trucks, three cars and three motorcycles and I do occasionally...
  5. Maverick Bull / Nudge / Brush Bar ?

    After a minor collision sidelined this truck for four months while Ford finally decided to ship a few front sensor wiring harness' out of Mexico. A $135 part, but the entire repair was just shy of $10k. No sheet metal body panels were involved in the 10mph bump. Now imagine a 230lb deer at 70mph...
  6. I found my next battery !

    No time stamp available but I know they occurred shortly after the message on my phone. It went into battery saver mode at 9:28pm and was bricked by 7:00am. The overnight low temp was 31°F. I let Swope Ford keep it an extra day but the temp didn't drop below 48°F. I'm thinking seriously of...
  7. I found my next battery !

    Two dealers only checked the 12v battery. That battery is fine, it just gets drained. I'll see if they cleared the codes. I just drove 105 miles in the rain round trip to pick it up and bring it home. I'll get it unloaded and check for codes.
  8. 2025 Hybrid - Potential Battery Drain?

    Yeah, it has codes. I just picked it up from Swope Ford. They say there's nothing wrong. That is two Ford dealer's that struck out. I'm thinking of upgrading to a 900cca deep cycle battery and telling Ford to piss off, lol.
  9. ‘25 Lariat TPMS whats the Mhz i should be buying?

    Yup, I'm in the same boat. Mounted tires to '23 steelies to use on my '25. Surprise!
  10. Does anyone know what this liquid is?

    I worked for a company that forms mufflers, yes that is a crimped seam at the ends. It's fun to watch the machines build them! It's not fun to fix them when they malfunction though. The seams allow for condensate to drain.
  11. Does anyone know what this liquid is?

    You tasted an unknown liquid by the tire? Do you have a dog? 😆 Hilarious!
  12. I found my next battery !

    I'm absolutely annoyed by the '25 Maverick Hybrid 12v battery discharge issues. I had the battery charged to 12.3v and tested today after the fourth battery saver alert in five days. This time the battery was at 6v and the truck was deceased. I made an appt with a different dealer after the...
  13. The Maverick is a full size truck*, change my mind

    Full-size vs Fun-size trucks
  14. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    You would need to purchase a different vehicle to closer meet your driving fantasies. 😁
  15. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    If the lane keeping fails and the driver does not correct the Maverick will become a 3,500lb unguided projectile unless the lane keeping assist can re-aquire centering or a car brakes in front of the truck.
  16. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    No the truck does not detect a deceased operator and pull to the side of the road and stop, then turn on the hazard lights, nor does it call for assistance and notify your next of kin. Instead it will keep driving a long as they're is a 3lb resistance against the steering wheel, there are...
  17. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    No flashing lights except your brake lights come on.
  18. Minimal Hands Free Driving (Lane Keeping + Adaptive Cruise Control)

    The truck just stays centered in the lane and comes to a stop. Easy as pie.
