Appreciate the photos, looks like you had a good time, I would say your fuel economy is close to what I get with my 2025 Tremor after 10,000 miles of driving. I get 23.5 MPG to 24.5 MPG per tank during highway driving which comes out to 22.5 MPG to 23.5 MPG in actual fuel economy (Calculated...
Thanks for bringing this product to my attention, this was one of my long term concerns with the Maverick, I will be investing in these shortly!
Is that going to dry out the plastic or otherwise damage it?
No drilled holes, it uses the holes under the hood where the gasket is held in to secure itself, all plastic hardware. I wouldn't expect it to stop a massive rock but even if it destroys itself protecting the hood, it cost less than $100 to replace.
I have a 2025 and mount mine behind my rear view mirror using a mesh bag for my Ez-Pass, no issues yet. I bought mine some time ago but here is the link to it:

Can you tell us about your bike? Can it also go full electric? I am looking to get back into biking and it would be nice to have something that can get me up steep inclines and can carry me if I wear myself out peddling.
Not my cup of tea, I keep my climate controls in Auto and use voice recognition to set the temp, but that's a neat solution for people who need or want solid switches for climate controls.
I switch from different sources, Satellite Radio and FM Radio using the voice commands, I tell the truck "Channel 6" to get me to the first channel I listen to on Sat Radio and then cycle through the channels with the physical arrows below the screen, I use the voice command again to get me back...
I can only really hear it when I don't have the B&O sound system going, which is 80% of the time but I actually like it when I do hear it.
I am glad to hear the sound is real.
It wasn't too bad, I have been driving with my seat that way for over half a week now, I will be keeping the seat in that position for the foreseeable future. I got my road trip next Friday with the Maverick so we will see how it goes on a multi-hour, non-stop trip.
It's one of those subjects where everyone has a different opinion and it's hard to find the proper answer since a concensus doesn't exist. Like the discussion if 10,000 oil changes are smart, even with motor oils that are rated for it or how often you should do a transmission flush/fluid change.
Sorry, I missed your post last week. As for the USB ports, I plugged in a diagnostic tool I use at work into one to charge, I know the car must have killed power to them when I shut the car off as it was at the same charge level when I returned. I can confirm the cigarette lighter port has power...
Its quite convincing, I can also hear the Turbocharger whoosh and whistle, I wonder if that's a sound enhancement too as I never hear that in my Fusion.
Thanks man, so many good memories in that car. That car is the reason I ended up owning 3 Ford's now. Its a shame how Ford moved away from the 3.7L, it had it all: Power, fuel efficiency and reliability.
