Now if there was a get your Maverick delivered early video that is one I would like to watch

I like that Ford is being proactive But I’ve owned “other” vehicles that have the same expensive problem 100% of the time but some examples managed to make it out of warranty first (like mine). Because people didn’t speak up each time it fails repairing it falls on my dime each time it...

Unless there is a crash, fire or a death it usually takes many thousands to report an issue before you might get a recall That is why it’s critical to report issues like these to the government so there is a paper trail and motivationto fix on Fords dime.

Up until fairly recently our state allowed you to check either truck or car for the plate application, no take backs. pretty much anything could get truck plates but only enclosed vehicles with rear seats could get car/passenger plates. Depending on the year sometimes car plates were cheaper...

Or take some of the ideas here seriously Many folks who like small long box stick shifts have zero options. PHEV Truck, ditto Many of us are waiting for someone to make a vehicle we can use that is also efficient. The hybrid Maverick is about 50% of what I need, and I don’t care about AWD...

If it has a giant PHEV battery on the bottom in the middle it’s likely anchored down fine

Possibly a PHEV Shift by Wire used to refer to manual transmission manual tcase

If your truck gets this problem report it to the national highway administration like any other safety issue. Enough complaints now and then if the issue translates from dead battery to fire later in life it’s more likely to get addressed and a recall Sadly these issues take years before they...

that explains why I’ve always had to oversize the hitch class and mounting Personally The Maverick hitch mounting system does not appear to be robust enough to tow, give it 5 years in the salt and a bike rack will fall off. When I’ve made a custom hitch to a unibody the mounting has been beefy...

when towing with a volt or a Prius the transmission does require a cooler and gets quite toasty, still are clutches and drivetrain electronics to cool I have used a weight distribution on a FWD vehicle , it can make tight turns harder but isn’t a concern during normal use especially when you...

Used to be you couldn’t sell a truck without a long box bench seat stick option And built in nav is critical for a good chunk of the population Where I drive my cell doesn’t work, having a working built in nav is wonderful and you aren’t supposed to play with your phone while driving anyway

Yeah unless you live in Europe the “towing” limits combined with the mass inside of the truck arent critical, and honestly more weight in the cab while towing is only a good thing as long as you don’t exceed the weight capacity inside the truck itself by tons. Ford is quite conservative with...

2.5na 6 speed stick Bench seat Long Box 4.k tow, trailer controller, hitch and trans cooler available on every model PHEV option is sorely needed With the reports of low to mid 30’s on ecobust I have no doubt a standard 2.5 with a granny 6 couldn’t do even better

Might this be better than OEM? Curious if it’s beefier or mounts more securely

Low tire pressure + low temperatures + HVAC use destroy Hybrid MPGs I would be happy with close to 100 miles per gallon also

What does normal or average have to do with the EPA rating? Crash tests and fuel economy tests all average out around 45mph at 75F In my area it’s difficult to hit the EPA rating because your MPGs drop in half during cold weather and short trips. It’s usually below 60F most of the year most...

Sort of like the Cobalt XFE, which is why I would love a long box bench seat naturally aspired 6 speed stick Maverick

You need an aero topper to do that https://ecomodder.com/forum/showthread.php/commercially-produced-aerodynamic-pickup-bed-cap-583.html Sounds like you wanted a naturally Aspired Diesel 5speed stick VW Rabbit Pickup, those would get a real 40-50mpg on the highway Unfortunate nobody makes an...

Bench seat Long Box 6sp Stick 2.5na (not hybrid) would be fine for a stripper base truck. Dodge and Chevy are tempted to import their small $9999 Mexican appliance trucks to compete, believe it when I see it but possible . Both options are small, manual and ugly compared to the Maverick Why...

in my area e15 is $3.669 E10 is $3.959 Premium is close to $5 If I happen to visit 12 miles north of here E15 is only $3.499 there Well worth it and on my vehicles that “require “ premium e15 seems to perform very well in terms of knock count, also can’t detect any difference in summer fuel...
