    Mine beeps twice when I shut the door with the fob in my pocket,
  2. Horn blows

    Standing next to my truck, both left side doors open. Doors locked on the key fob, I shut just the back door, Key fobs in my pocket, Panic horn starts up only to be turned off with the fob. Yep some younger did that.
  3. $22 for a 10 or 12 oz can of something Ford wanted me to use.

    Got my 20,000 miles service today, Full synthetic, Tires rotated, Fluids topped off, only my windshield washer fluid was low. New Engine air filter at my request, New cabin air filter at my request,,, And it made a noticeable difference in air flow and smell, Plus that mechanic in a can they...
  4. 2026 XL 2.0 w/4k tow didn't cut the mustard on my steep dirt driveway

    Traction control off, Slippery, puts equal amounts of power to all four wheels. Low is best for crawl climbs. 500 pounds of crap in the bed would have got you up it. Next time start with the Tacoma. It’s Whut Idda done.
  5. Mav seems to use significant cell phone data; how to reduce?

    I think mine being only $250 was because I have FIVE devices on the plan. Again my plan was unlimited data so no throttling or data banking no roll over bullshit.
  6. 30,000 miles on my 2025 Maverick Hybrid Lariat AWD w/4K…

    20,000 this month. 18 month old 2024 Ecoboost. I just got it broken in. Not even close to considering a trade up.
  7. First Sight! $30k Midsize EV Pickup Prototype

    ā€œ Plus, at my age, I have trouble hanging halfway out of the drivers window to grab my prescriptions and food take-outs at drive-thru's!ā€ Hahahahaha Roflmao ! They don’t build em for us old farts, we’ll be dead soon. We don’t matter, we may be on our last or next to last vehicle. They are...
  8. Mav seems to use significant cell phone data; how to reduce?

    No throttling on my Verizon plan. Two IPhone 16 pro’s, monthly payment included in my bill. Plus an Apple Watch my wife loves. And the two free IPad elevens we got with the package. They add $10 a month each. $254 a month. Again no throttling back, ever.
  9. After 2 years, I’m back!

    Yup :’P
  10. Max Gas Mileage Tire for Mavericks

    I can’t, I got this info from Ford when they tried to order me a set of defender 2’s. The 2’s that are still available are showing up with only older date codes. I don’t ever want that. She said she could still get them but it might take several days to scrounge up a set. The big tire houses...
  11. Mav seems to use significant cell phone data; how to reduce?

    My Verizon plan was the best deal, bang for the buck with unlimited data, By far. I thought most everyone was on unlimited data. Especially with 5G up in so many places. At work I can choose 5G It is so very much faster.
  12. Max Gas Mileage Tire for Mavericks

    I tried to get defender 2’s Only three left at the warehouse. Seems production has ended because the Defender 3 is on the way. I purchased Pirelli Scorpion AS plus 3’s in the factory tire size, they are plenty wide enough to give me superior handling. They are super quiet, even on the crack...
  13. MPG related to MPH

    Very Interesting, I will contemplate this on the, ā€˜Tree Of Woe’
  14. Change oil light

    I think our 2024’s were the last to have it. Take it out of the glove box, mine sits on the back of the toilet. It’s good for some light reading from time to time
  15. MPG related to MPH

    Above 75, my Ecoboost turns In a consistent 29-30. And above 80 she easily holds 30 and 31 mpg at 85. Around 60-65 28 tops. Turbos work like that I guess. In stop and go city traffic I get around 22 mpg.
  16. Change oil light

    ā€œ Since they don't give you a paper copy anymore, some people may think, "Read the manual, what manual, I only got a pamphlet !" Can you still hit the parts counter and buy an owner’s manual ?
  17. Change oil light

    I hear you, but I seem to be able to find the applicable page just as fast in my owners manual. Reading it and watching paint dry, yep good point. When my truck was new I’d make a list of three or so things I wanted to know then use the index and find the answers. But there was a few...
  18. Change oil light

    I’ve made an observation, Ecoboost guyz find answers in the manual first and if they can’t then they ask in here. Mavbrid guyz ask in here first. I think it’s because us old farts buy Ecoboost’s and the Youngers buy Hybrids. It’s a different mind set. Us old guys consider asking for help...
