Toyota just released this teaser image of what many believe to be their Maverick competitor. Others online speculate it may be some kind of crossover or SUV. Curious what everyone here thinks? I feel like the proportions make it look more like a truck than an SUV. It feels like there's some...

After some further research, I settled on the Nokian Outpost APT in 245/65R17. Upon further research, the Pinza ATs seemed to have mixed reviews once you start to exceed ~25k miles. I looked briefly at the Falken Wildpeak AT Trails but found some reports on Reddit of balancing issues and only a...

The A/T Trail looks interesting to me. Looks like its meant for someone like me who mostly needs a good road tire but something that is still capable when I go up gravel logging roads to go shooting, or down dirt roads to get to campsites in the woods. Nothing extreme. I'm going to do some more...

Looking at swapping the factory tires on my Mav with something a bit beefier. I'm looking at going up to 245/65R17 from the factory 225/65R17. I'm considering a pair of AT tires (either the Vredestein Pinza or Maxxis Razr) but I've read that I can expect a 1-3mpg decrease by switching to AT...

When I bought my Maverick, the dealer automatically knocked $3,000 off because it was one of three remaining MY24s still on the lot. They wanted to make room for the MY25s (which they said they were getting more demand for because of the hybrid AWD option). I was also given $1,500 in rebates for...

Came across this video on Youtube. 2022 EcoBoost FX4 AWD w/ 4k tow with 165k miles. He doesn't seem to report any issues with the powertrain. He did say his right tail light occasionally pops itself out, which I found to be odd.

I don't know about other states, but where I am regular gasoline and diesel are both taxed at 40 cents/gallon.

I haven't read too much about the issue of gas tax vs mileage tax, but I've seen a third option proposed - weight mile tax. It's basically a tax that is levied with some formula determined off your vehicle weight and miles driven. We have it here in Oregon but its limited to commercial vehicles...

I think OReGo was voluntary for hybrid and electric vehicles, with reduced registration fees in exchange to encourage people to use the program. Seeing as how hybrid and electric vehicles can have registration fees near $400, it can be a decent discount by using the program. The ODOT website...

Here in Oregon we are currently battling it over a bunch of tax increases that were meant to fund transportation. The original proposed plan was nuts. - 50% increase in gas tax (40 cents to 60 cents/gal) and then tied it to inflation rate going forward. - 3% sales tax on tires. - Increased the...

Finally installed the vault. I've been waiting to see if any console trays would come out but I've decided to resort to 3D printing one. Only complaint is that mine came with 6 screws. So I just installed the screws in a 2-1-2-1 pattern. I've included some guns for reference so users can get an...

I have a similar one and generally those drop in ones are not compatible with console vaults because the vault is too tall. If the trays were only about an inch deep they would fit. I've seen some 3D printed ones made by others that basically make a tray with a little hollowed out rectangle in...

I've been looking for a center console tray that is compatible with center console vaults! I just recently detailed this in my thread about the Musology center console vault. You guys could easily take the top center console tray from this product and cut an inch or two off the bottom, and it...

Love seeing good reviews on the Mav. Makes me confident in my purchase. Sometimes when you browse forums all you seem to hear are the bad things and it can make your confidence start to slip. The guy who made this video seems like a really nice guy. I agree with him that the vehicle clearly...

Ironically, I typed my comment with a Glock 43x on my desk while wearing a flannel shirt. In my defense I had jeans on. A flannel shirt and jeans are the standard issue outfit for people from the Pacific Northwest. Its only a problem when I say it is. In this case that problem is people with FDE...

The Tacoma became popular for its bulletproof reliability. But... my controversial opinion is that its also popular among some men who need a tool to affirm their masculinity. I'm sure we all know the guy whose a modern version of Eugene Tackleberry that drives a sand/FDE Tacoma (sometimes its a...

The Maverick continuing to outpace the Ranger in sales numbers. I love the Ranger and have owned two in my life; a 1992 square body when I was in the Navy, and a 2008 that I owned from about 2015 - 2020. However, the current Ranger falls into a weird area. Its not a small truck - heck, its near...

Revisiting this thread about 10 months later - does anyone know if a console tray that is compatible with the console vault is on the market? Wouldn't be hard to make. I was looking at my current console tray, which seems to be mass produced by a dozen or so brands on Amazon, and if it was maybe...

Installed mine today after its been sitting on my workbench for ~6 months. I bought the Arana version from Amazon. Took maybe 10 minutes from start to finish. I opened and closed my tailgate a couple times and it seemed to work pretty well. I will report back if problems start to arise.

I'm just hair under 12,000 miles right now. Bought my truck in March. I've made a few statewide road trips with it which added probably 2000 extra miles. Next week I'm driving to Portland to visit family for the holidays and when I get back I'll probably be just hitting 12,500 miles. I'm...
