  1. random radio station changes?

    My 2025 Mav Hybrid XLT is the best vehicle I've ever owned. But... All too often, the infotainment switches inputs, like from FM to AM, FM to USB. You get it: messes with my Zen, man. So is there a software fix? My cosmic tranquility needs your wise response, Bodhisattva.
  2. Got dissed at the Depot!

    "Funny. Your wife says it's too long."
  3. Eco mode question.

    I have a hybrid. I doubt there's regenerative braking on an ecoboost. Sorry if I answered the wrong question!
  4. Eco mode question.

    Eco mode changes the shift points in the transmission to increase regnerative breaking when lifting off the accelerator. You can feel it if you lift your right foot and try coasting-- there's a sensation that the trans downshifted like you're using engine breaking
  5. Check out this Decal

    So, what's the country of origin?
  6. 2024 XLT Hybrid BAP+, Fog Lights, Tint

    Nice. Would like to learn more about the fog lights, especially their installation .
  7. My Mav, FINALLY!

    I ordered the same but without the 4k towing package and in Canonized Gray Metallic. And still paid $500 less. Sometimes, it's better to be lucky than smart.
  8. My Mav, FINALLY!

    Here's my '25 XLT Hybrid AWD with the 4K tow package. It's getting some aftermarket glam but not much as it's exactly as I ordered it.... ....except it isn't. I ordered from a high-volume dealer back last November! Ford happily texted (the same day I brought mine home!) that they scheduled...
  9. Proposed federal yearly fee for Hybrids

    Gotta disagree. What it does is penalized efficiency when we should be taxing inefficiency. Best way would be a mileage tax, something more technologically feasible now than when usage taxation for transportation was first adopted. As it would depend on accurate reporting of distance...
  10. 2025 is already in the shop!

    When you build things in the tens of thousands, each with thousands of parts, a failure rate of even 1/10th of a percent means someone--- many someones--- will experience a failure. Ford isn't NASA, where parts are inspected and tested many times before assembly, each with its own paper trail...
  11. New 2025 owners - Are you paying MSRP?

    That's what I assume. MSRP = "Manufacter's Suggested Retail Price" or what Ford suggests dealers sell the vehicle for. Dealer Invoice is what the dealer actually pays. I asked how they make their money and the salesperson mentioned "holdback", which I understand is a payment from Ford for...
  12. New 2025 owners - Are you paying MSRP?

    I agreed to the listed dealer invoice and placed my order which hasn''t been scheduled for build, yet. So, we'll see if this changes on delivery, but I doubt it.
  13. Hope this isn't too disruptive to the group, but...

    Santa blew past my house and didn't deliver my '25 Mav XLT AWD in Slate even though I asked politely on November 27. And, I have been a very good boy. Signed, impatiently yours, Little Markie.
  14. New Member Intro

    Greetings, all. After enjoying 12 trouble-free years with a Fusion Hybrid, I decided that I needed an efficient hauler. I just special ordered a '25 Maverick XLT, all-wheel drive, got the acknowledgment from Ford, and .... ...now I wait. I live in Minnesota which makes all-wheel drive a...
