  1. Factory Continental bad tires. Need replacement at 15K miles

    Do you have a Costco near you? I’ve bought several sets of tires from them, not many brands available but Michelin they do have. Only negative is you have to wait about a week, Sam’s pretty much matches Costco prices and I’ve used them as well on a BMW.
  2. Factory Continental bad tires. Need replacement at 15K miles

    I went to Mavis because I had a big nail/screw in one. I told the manager I would just get them at Costco unless he could get close to their price. He did, $881 installed with tax in Richland County South Carolina. . He only had one customer in the shop so he needed business. Ordered them but...
  3. What Maverick 2025 is missing is competitors.

    Toyota probably waited for Ford to raise prices to where they can actually make money. Ford couldn’t have made much money on the 22’s or 23’s. Toyota is pretty proud of the new Taco, they raised it $3-$4K if you compare the SR5 from 23-24. They could easily plop a truck body on the RAV4 hybrid...
  4. Interior squeaking when I drive + bad dealer visit. Anybody else?

    When my air bags were replaced and I got the truck home I noticed spots all over the area around the air bags on the interior roof. I was not up for driving it back and going thru the hassle of dealing with them after leaving it several days. I found that Tuff Stuff foam cleaner works really...
  5. For people who have had their Mavs for several years, and park outside, how is your vehicle aging?

    Had mine since March of 22, sits outside in hot South Carolina and exterior has held up great. Definitely get front window shades to save your dash and front interior.
  6. Another reason not to own a EV

    Ford lost $1.2 Billion on EV’s the first quarter of 2024 and expect to lose $5 billion for the year. I ran a $180 million business and our goal was to make money. We didn’t sell loss leaders, we at least broke even in margin on our worst margin items.
  7. Another reason not to own a EV

    Insurance is 30% more for EV according to Wall Street Journal, average damage is $6,000 to repair vs $4,000 for ICE. Hard to get parts and shops can’t fix them. Resale value has gone into the shitter for EV’s as well, just don’t hold their value.
  8. the best wax

    Another Turtle Wax Hybrid vote, so easy and it lasts. My truck is parked outside in South Carolina heat and it holds up. Cerakote for the black trim also works amazing, keeps it black and beads after 6 months but it is expensive.
  9. FordPass App Not Working

    Mine works on my iphone 15 with the latest IOS but will not work on my ipad with the latest IOS. Continues to say wrong email or password, deleted app, reinstalled, triple checked my password but no luck.
  10. Factory Continental bad tires. Need replacement at 15K miles

    I replaced my Continentals about two weeks ago at 20,000 miles with Michelin Defender 2 with 80,000 specs. What a difference in noise and ride, even got rid of most of my rattles in the dash.
  11. How much mulch have you hauled?

    18 bags of pine bark nuggets, 2 cubic ft each and doesn’t stick out above the bottom of the window.
  12. Maverick HYBRID outsells Toyota Tacoma in February!

    21,558 more sold than Ford Ranger should be the comparison. Try finding a 2024 Tacoma actually on a dealer lot.
  13. Latest on Engine Fire Recall for MY22 Hybrids?

    I’m sure nothing can go wrong with that since every other sensor has to be reprogrammed, seems like they will be creating more problems than actually exist.
  14. Why You Should Never Lock Key in Truck And Rely On Keypad for Entry

    You can definitely lock your keys. In a 22 Maverick and open it with the keypad. My wife went to the dogpark and accidentally locked her purse in the truck without taking the key (truck is 30ft away from fence and maybe 100 ft away at any time. She had to borrow a cell phone and get the pad...
  15. 4 or 5 recalls just done

    It lets the burning oil escape to the ground, Ford said they are still working on a solution. Some speculate a sensor with be added to shut down the engine if it throws a rod, camshaft , crankshaft etc. Chances are so slim oft his happening are so small. I’m more worried about them shutting down...
  16. Maverick HYBRID outsells Toyota Tacoma in February!

    Ranger has sold 303 units ytd, way to go Ford planning.
  17. Maverick HYBRID outsells Toyota Tacoma in February!

    This has to be about the dumbest thread I’ve seen in years, a guy saying how screwed up Toyota planning and production is that ordered a 2022 hybrid which he never got and waiting at least a year and a half for a Maverick hybrid. . Again, how is the Ranger doing?
  18. 4 or 5 recalls just done

    They don’t have a solution for the fire other than carry a fire extinguisher.
  19. 4 or 5 recalls just done

    Two questions, charge battery through the engine (not under seat) and I have no idea how to reset the BMS? It is driven every day but 10-15 miles usually.
  20. 4 or 5 recalls just done

    Hey I was expecting power loss before the recall so I’m really on alert. I’ve has deep sleep probably a dozen times or more in two years we don’t get much cold weather in South Carolina. Just leaving the doors open for 10 minutes while vacuuming has caused before. They didn’t address the deep...
