  1. The last straw? (Vehicle down for 3+ weeks, with no end in sight.)

    I would like to compare the Maverick Hybrid to the Maverick ICE. Anyone have those numbers. Recalls per each year and how many unit involved would be really good info. I am truly interested not trying to throw shade on either version.
  2. The last straw? (Vehicle down for 3+ weeks, with no end in sight.)

    Since you like everything else about the Maverick why not trade for a ICE version. I have 13,000 miles on my Lariat AWD 4K tow with no issues and averaging 29mpg for the whole 13K. Only on recall and it was update on software.
  3. Dealer wants me to trade my 22 Maverick XLT in for a 24 XLT

    I think the first mistake is talking payments versus total cost to you. Without knowing the details of your circumstances it is hard to know if your actually getting a good deal. You say the same payment but how many months of payments are you adding? If my dealer were to approach me with that...
  4. White Smoke out of my exhaust on my 24 Mav EB

    That is good news because that is what I had before my Maverick (2002 Ranger Tremor) I am still traveling so my truck is still at the airport but I will check my oil and coolant when I return to Cincinnati. I never remember my Tremor doing this on a relativity warm day. I guess all the pollution...
  5. Are maverick prices due to crash?

    I think a few things are going on. * Ford has raised the entry level price by a ton so the value equation is off now. * Economy is bad inflation is high so less people buying new. * Bunch of Mavericks on Ford lots now. (mostly $38K Lariats)
  6. White Smoke out of my exhaust on my 24 Mav EB

    So I was heading to the airport last week (69F outside) and noticed white fog coming out of my exhaust. Of course when I use Dr Google to find out what would cause white fog coming out of your exhaust on a non winter day I was not happy with the possibilities. Can one of you guys tell what the...
  7. 500K mile comparison between Synthetic and Conventional Oil on EcoBoost engine

    I think you would be right with an old school engine (No turbos, no direct inject) but I think you are fooling yourself if you think you can have long term reliability with Dino oil and long oil change intervals on a EcoBoost engine. I will be happy to waste my money on full synthetic and 5k oil...
  8. 500K mile comparison between Synthetic and Conventional Oil on EcoBoost engine

    What about guys like the person who owned this truck? Maybe if he used full synthetic and changed every 5K he would be able to keep that truck another 5 years? I am guessing if the dealer wants $22K then they gave him max $16K and he probably paid $32K for it so it cost him $5200.00 a year in...
  9. Who has the highest odometer miles on their Maverick.

    12,345.6 miles no repairs and 1 recall.
  10. 500K mile comparison between Synthetic and Conventional Oil on EcoBoost engine

    This video compares running 2 Ford explorers side by side for 500K miles. They have the 2.3L Ecoboost. I have been running full synthetic in my Maverick since 500 miles but my difference is I change at 5k miles and not the 10K they did. This is about as good as you can get for real world...
  11. How is $29,500 OTD for new 24 xl hybrid???

    Looks like they are charging twice for Tax?
  12. Can the Brand/grade of fuel reduce engine wear?

    I have been using Shell gas in my 2.0 Ecoboost because I am worried about carbon build up. I found this video on grades of gasoline versus engine wear and it blew my mind. What do you guys think?
  13. Maverick Wheel Well Liners Demand

    If you could make an after market replacement under engine guard that has access doors for the oil drain and oil filter you could sell a bunch. The OEM has no doors so you must remove every oil change which is a huge hassle. If you want to make a prototype send it to me and I will evaluate.
  14. The Car Care Nut :: 2024 [HYBRID] Ford Maverick Review

    I agree with his opinion about the build quality. For most people it comes down to this: How long do I plan to own this vehicle? If its forever than you might want to buy the $50k Tacoma. I myself have changed my strategy. I bought a Maverick Lariat AWD 2.0 Ecoboost with the 4k tow pkg and...
  15. Alert: There are no complaints in this post

    24 lariat eco-boost 4k six month ownership 11,000 miles no complaints averaging 29 miles a gallon for all 11,000 miles. I’ve had one recall for calibration of a thing a majiggy and love this truck.
  16. Service bulletins for dashboard rattles?

    I have a 24 Eco AWD Lariat and when I am idling with foot on the brake I hear a pretty sizable rattle coming from what appears to be behind the back seat. This started at around 10,000 miles. Any Ideas? If i take my foot off the brake the rattle stops.
  17. Maverick Insurance Raised 30%

    I literally left this thread and went to look at the news on the world wide web and saw the article/graph on inflation and copied it. The part I laughed at is the car insurance supposedly went up 18% in the past 12 months which is what this thread was talking about. I did not even look at the...
  18. Maverick Insurance Raised 30%

    Just got the youngest boy off my policy. I have 3 boys (22, 27 and 30 years old) and all 3 of them totaled a car at some point. My rates were over $5000.00 a year at one point. Now my rates with my wifes CX30 and my Maverick are $1200.00 a year thank goodness. I feel real sorry for parents with...
  19. 2025 vs 2024

    I agree with you 100%. My 24 Lariat AWD 4K tow is perfect and since its the 3rd year of production Ford has most bugs worked out. With the 25 you better bet there was some cost cutting going on and what is with the 13 less HP? Oh I forgot a extra smog filter that cost $4k to replace. No thanks...
