  1. Looking for a soft tonneau that doesn't need hardware

    Any of the Soft Tri-Fold Tonneau Covers you see on Amazon should meet your requirements. I bought a TIPTOP but I suspect they're all made in the same factory. https://www.amazon.com/TIPTOP-Roll-Up-Tonneau-Cover-Maverick/dp/B0BF9LH5Y4 It costs a little more than the boxes of cling-film plastic...
  2. Hot Air not coming out of vents under dash on 2025 ford maverick

    After I'd driven a few miles to warm up the engine I pushed buttons on my 2022 XL to select floor vent only and cranked up the fan speed to maximum. There was a lot of noise but there seemed to be no hot air coming from anywhere. When I got home I got out to kneel beside the truck and wave my...
  3. What is this (Found it in rear seat compartment)

    Search this forum for: NZ6T-12663 and you'll see it's a 12v accessory pigtail that connects to a plug in the bed.
  4. First long distance driving impressions in 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD

    It's supposed to prevent flat-spotting. https://www.theautopian.com/why-automakers-overpressurize-tires-and-how-that-can-affect-your-handling-ask-an-engineer/ I think my Maverick was delivered with 40+ psi.
  5. First long distance driving impressions in 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD

    Did your dealer remember to lower the tire pressure from the 50psi pumped in at the factory to the recommended 35psi? (That's American psi; I don't know what it is in Euros.)
  6. Ford ESP from Granger and Flood?

    I believe that the high voltage battery of my 2022 XL Hybrid is covered by Ford's STANDARD warranty for 8 years or 100,000 miles, which is why it's not included (or needed) in Ford's EXTENDED warranty. Has anyone told you something different?
  7. Comparison Photos: Purchased 2025 Maverick XLT Velocity Blue vs. Traded-In 2024 XLT Atlas Blue Metallic.

    Thanks for the comparison pix! Both blues are nice. I've no complaints about the paint quality of my Velocity Blue Papa-Smurf-mobile. Mine was parked by Ford in the desert for a couple of weeks before delivery in a late-2021 holdup and I think the extra bake time was helpful. :)
  8. Gas mileage suddenly significantly lower in Hybrid

    I'm seeing 36-38mpg now compared to 40+mpg in summer. The difference probably reflects my changeover to snow tires (which you did not do), winter gas formulation, and more use of the heater (I don't crank it up to max). I do keep my tires inflated to 35psi. Have you changed driving habits or...
  9. Unlocking Innovation: Convenience Redefined in the Passenger Seat!

    I respect you for coming up with a new idea, posting pictures of the proposed product, and being receptive to feedback.
  10. Warranties are running out on the '22's... extended warranty?

    You can calculate on-line the cost of a Ford extended warranty purchased from one of the dealers that were recommended by this forum. https://www.grangerfordextendedwarranty.com/ford/maverick/ https://www.floodfordesp.com/ Read about what's covered by the different plans at...
  11. FordPass rewards

    My "first" was that I'd never bought an extended warranty before. Since I drive only about 6,000-7,000 miles a year, an 8yr 60K warranty wasn't expensive, and I used up my FordPass points to reduce the cost. This forum recommends Flood and Granger for a good deal on a Ford warranty.
  12. Good bye mini duty

    My theory is that people drive too close because they want to see if your Maverick is a hybrid or not and Ford made the text too small. That's why they removed the tailgate badges from the 2025 models.
  13. Symbols

    If you'd bought a hybrid, you'd see 40MPG and 600 miles to empty. The display is programmable using the buttons on your steering wheel (see owners manual per Ice's post above) and you must have hit one of the buttons by accident if this display is new to you.
  14. MotorTrend Tacoma test drive: The Last Stick-Shift Pickup

    2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport Manual First Test: The Last Stick-Shift Pickup https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2024-toyota-tacoma-trd-sport-manual-first-test-the-last-stick-shift-pickup/ Unrefined powertrain and ride Cramped second row A new truck that feels old At least it's big (213" long)...
  15. Maverick Van prototype shown to Ford dealers (for 2025?)

    The Maverick compact pickup has a starting price in the 20s, provides up to 40MPG in hybrid models with 0-60 acceleration under 8 seconds, handles well, and is a sales success. The Ford Transit Connect had none of the attributes above - it wasn't inexpensive, economical, or quick - and it was...
  16. DIY Bed Mat

    I'll argue that if you've got a spray-in liner you don't need 100% bed coverage. Tractor Supply's "Thick Rubber Stall Mat, 4 ft. x 6 ft." is 94 lbs before you trim it to fit the wheel wells; it's heavy and unwieldy. Tractor Supply's "Utility Rubber Stall Mat, 3 ft. x 4 ft." is only 37 lbs...
  17. Blizzak performance on a FWD Hybrid?

    Love my Blizzaks - much improved winter performance compared to the Continental racing slicks Ford put on my FWD truck in the factory. However, your Falken Wildpeak AT's should also be good in snow, so you may not notice a big difference. I don't know if they've got the same soft rubber...
  18. Steering Feel New 2024 Maverick

    I don't use SPORT mode, but the manual says it's "For sporty driving with improved performance handling and response. This mode increases throttle response and provides a sportier steering feel."
  19. Prospective buyer, lowdown on E-CVT

    Nice discussion of the 2.5L Atkinson-cycle engine that goes back more than a dozen years: https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/2-5-liter-for-the-maverick-only.9382/
  20. Recommendations for Southern N.H. Ford dealer to perform routine recall service?

    My 2022 XL Hybrid will be 3 years old in January so I'm thinking of getting recalls done before then, in case I have any problems subsequent to servicing. I haven't visited a Ford dealer since I picked up my Maverick, and that dealer is an hour away. Has anyone had good or bad experiences with...
