This is a DECKED brand Cargo Glide bed system for the 2022-2026 Ford Maverick. It is the top of the line system (1st generation) that was featured in the video I did for TestDrivenTV shown below. It was sent to me by the manufacturer to be installed and demonstrated for that video. I then...

Factory take-off 17-inch steel wheels for 2022 Ford Maverick (fits 2022-2026) with remaining Continental tires. Tires have "legal tread" and in decent condition, but are used and close to their end time. These are painted white and include factory lug nuts, center caps (painted black) and still...

The 2025 Ford Maverick EcoBoost features an all-new completely redesigned 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Who knew? Many of you do and did, but it was news to me in putting together this video. I popped the hood on the 2025 Maverick Lobo I'm reviewing this week and had a WTF moment. Well this is...

It finally hit that mark, two years with the Maverick and all its drama. Would I do it again?

I just installed the 100% opening top drawer (pardon the pun) bed slide from DECKED in my Maverick. Here is a video on some of the installation notes and my thoughts on the product. I installed it with my factory drop-in bed liner so it IS compatible. The system is pretty beefy and heavy...

While the IIHS reporting on the new moderate overlap and side impact crash tests are out there now for a few weeks and pretty much stand on their own, I wanted to put my own take on them together. I have been kind of a safety geek and a pretty big fan of the people over at the IIHS (Insurance...

In the pursuit of building up our long-term test Ford Maverick Hybrid to have more capability out on the trail, a leveling kit was at the top of the list. There are a number of them on the market, the most popular a low cost product from Rough Country. In further searching I came across a kit of...

I just spent the first thousand miles on a new set of 245/65 17 Firestone Destination A/T2 tires mounted to some LPAventure LP5 wheels. Also installed is a Zone Offroad Leveling Kit. Full review on the drive and its upgraded capabilities:

Just added some new hiking boots to my XL Hybrid. Wheels are 17x8 LP5 from LPAventure and Firestone sent me a set of 245/65/17 Destination A/T2s to try out on them. I will be adding a 1" leveling kit from Zone Offroad here in the coming week. The point is NOT to make it a Raptor or a Tremor but...

The Ford Accessories Fender Flares for the 2022-2024 Maverick are made by supplier Air Design and are at current only available through Ford approved dealerships and online through the official Ford Accessories website. They retail for a pretty spendy $669 but at some dealerships that price...

I finally isolated my dash rattle and fixed it, without tools in less than 1 minute. And it cost absolutely nothing! Now that I know how to do it, I'm going to get more straws. Really though, it will inform now where I put extra foam pieces between the dash and the windshield to create a...

Here is the video report of my own experience with the second round of software fix for the 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid grabbing brake issue. TSB 23-2060 performed, gets a B grade - so long as the fix sticks. Full written report below. The saga of the Ford Maverick Hybrid...

Just finished a lengthy installation project - a lot of work - of the new "Raptor" style LED grille for the Maverick. No instructions included, video covers it all including an important harware issue you need to know about before digging into your own installation.

Title says it all, one year 19,000 miles later, full roundup of all of the issues the good and the bad. Oh and real world MPG. 🙂

Here is my video update on the grabby hybrid brake fix of TSB-2493. Not impressed. Somewhat fixed, but not 100%

Looks like Ford has finally issued a TSB for the grabby brakes on Maverick Hybrid models (in addition to another problem combined into the same TSB). Now owners can contact their dealership with this TSB number (attachment below) and schedule for the software to be updated and hopefully solve...

I saw one of these Keko Sports Bar (by @Keko Automotive) in person at the SEMA Show earlier this month and just had to try it out. Here is a video of the unboxing, installation walk through and my thoughts on it.

It took a good week to get this one put together, showcasing the top five custom build Mavericks at the 2022 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. I reached out to all the builders and some took longer than others to get back with me on information about the builds. A couple of these are by forum members here...

Just got back home from the 2022 SEMA Show and was able to check out a lot of new stuff for the Maverick from DeeZee, our forum sponsor Keko Automotive and several of the brands under the Truck Hero umbrella. The show was huge as usual, plenty to see but a huge hole was left in the middle as...
