Lol. All I can say is I feel much smarter after buying the Maverick than I did after buying a Mini Cooper.

One of things I like the most about my Maverick is the flexibility of the bed and tailgate. I like to use my tailgate as a seat and a table or bench. I put some indoor/outdoor carpet on a piece of 1/4 plywood. It makes for a simple tailgate protector/leveler. It's comfortable to sit on...

I'd even say B+ overall. Very solid effort for sure.

Here is more detail. Another poster has details on his sweet cover build in the thread as well. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/made-my-own-diy-tonneau-cover.30965/

Such a nice job! Well done.

I made my own. I wanted racks and a cover. I also didn't want to take off the racks to roll/fold the cover to access the middle or front of the bed.

I have the Pirellis. They have been fine. I do look forward to new rubber though!

The seats are comfortable and no issues in heat. The interior is fine, I have dinged and scratched the surfaces a bit. A quick clean up with most interior cleaner fixes the problem though.

I bought an extended power train warranty at purchase. Everything else is on me now. I like having it but it is costly.

Let's just say from the beginning my sales contact has not been doing his job. Because I have one, I'm mainly just hanging on for entertainment purposes.

After 35k miles, two recalls, one warranty repair and receiving my Yeti water bottle, it is time for a long-term review of the Maverick. Not just the truck itself but Ford customer service and the overall experience of owning this vehicle. I put in an order in July of 2021. I am still waiting...

I like the look of your tires. Looks like you still have plenty of space. Impact on MPG?

Simply Fantastic. Love the concept and the execution.

It is! I'm happy with the easy access and water tightness so far. And the gull wing look is growing on me so much at times I just leave them open in the garage just because lol.

Spent the afternoon surf perch fishing. Such a great adventure vehicle.

Quick update on what the approach to sealing hinges. I ultimately settled on using 3 layers of waterproof fabric (silicone rubber backed Cordura) that spans the hinges for each of the hatches. I used pieces of trim I had laying around to hold the fabric on each side of hinges and edges. It's...

They sell waterproof "moving bags" on amazon. They are nowhere near as substantial. However, a pack of 6 is very cheap. They are huge. My kids and I used them for a whole ski season without incident.

I plasti-dipped them in an attempt to protect them and provide a bit a texture. However I think just painting would be more than sufficient and much easier.

Great question. I went back and forth about this. I have a friend who is a Shipwright and he always says "water will find a way". We had our first heavy rain this week and indeed water drips around the seams and edges. Not a lot, but more than you would want carrying groceries lol. I have some...

The market is providing a ton of choices for cross bars and tonneau covers. You can get cross bars at many heights, even some that are adjustable. You can get tonneau covers in a wide range of prices from value to insane. Even with all those choices, after a year plus with my Maverick my...
