Thanks for the responses. Wish it stayed a bit warmer, as even with bare hands in moderate temps it doesn't stay very warm - unless it stays warmer in really cold weather than it does now, I can't believe the heat will go through gloves very well.
I'm not familiar with the XLT trim enough to know if it also has the "leather" wrapped steering wheel, or if it's some other material that might have different heating elements in it due to different materials. Didn't mean to disparage other trim levels, that's for sure!
Have a '25 Lariat Hybrid that has interesting behavior for the heated steering wheel. When I first turn it on the steering wheel gets nice and toasty warm, but then after that first burst of heat, after a couple minutes the temperature of the wheel no longer feels hot, but just mildly warm...
It's my experience with my '25 Lariat Hybrid that a quick tap increments (or decrements) the speed by one unit (MPH or KPH, depending on how your units are configured). Holding it a bit longer bumps it up by 5 units multiple times for as long as it's held. This is opposite of our Subaru...
There's a big difference in reporting requirements of large financial transactions that require reporting to the government (I believe if it is anything over $10K). I am not a lawyer and don't know the specific requirements, but I believe that if it's a check (personal/certified/bank/etc.) then...
Do a search of the forums here for lots of recommendations on dash cams with various features, back or interior cameras, etc. I ended up getting an auto-dim mirror with Homelink from here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1869553566/22-25-ford-maverick-auto-dimming-mirror (he's a Maverick Truck...
I had an '05 Escape, and loved the boxy look that set it apart from all of the other mini SUV type vehicles on the road. (reminded me a lot of the earlier Bronco II). It was a very fun vehicle to drive, had plenty of pep, was very useful for hauling stuff, had great visibility, and was easy to...
Is there a separate TSB or recall for the '25s? I just checked my Ford app and don't see anything pending, though I have a '25 Lariat Hybrid with the block heater. I also haven't gotten anything in the mail yet, and I've had the truck for ~6 months now.
Interestingly, in my '25 Lariat Hybrid, if I go through one of those touchless car washes where the car is pushed along a belt, the camera views will pop up on the info screen as the vehicle senses nearby objects and puts up camera alerts. Was really funky the first time it happened.
Do you also have a bedliner, or will this rubber mat be on the painted metal bed? If your tonneau cover provides decent moisture sealing, the little bit that gets in probably won't be a big deal, even if it's on the metal bed. I have a generic rolling tonneau cover that seals pretty decently...
We just specify as part of our new vehicle purchases that no dealer badging or license plate frames be put on the vehicle. But those have been new vehicle orders and not dealer stock purchases where the dealer badge/decal may have already been put on the vehicle during dealer prep/acceptance...
Got home recently from a ~2700 mile trip from Iowa to NY and back in our '25 Lariat Hybrid. Had quite a mix of interstate 70+ mph, plus quite a bit of hilly driving in NY. Very pleased with the mileage and overall ride comfort. Had no issues at all with the truck. Has a soft-rolling tonneau...
We just got back from a ~2700 mile trip with our '25 Lariat Mav from Iowa to NY and back. Our transponder is an Illinois I-Pass stand-alone transponder that's about 8 years old (so not a new battery by any means). But it's the same technology and fully compatible with any EZ-Pass states and...
I had the same thing happen once on a 3 mile commute drive, but haven't seen it again and haven't taken the time to try and replicate the issue. I think I'd started my '25 Lariat Hybrid, turned it off for something after I'd backed out of the garage, then turned it back for the drive. But not...
Have a '25 Lariat Hybrid. Love the truck, but have observed that the steering wheel vibration when wandering across lane markings is not working on my vehicle. I have verified that my settings are correct to vibrate the wheel (have it set to medium vibration), and the shaker (usually) works...
I've experienced similar behavior in my '25 Lariat. It's almost as though it considers both speed limit signs, as well as stored map speeds when adjusting the cruise speed. I've had instances where it slams on the brakes in places where there were no signs at all (country roads), but are...
Where is your phone in your Mav when Waze is fluctuating your mph so much? If it's down low in the console, it may not be getting a good GPS signal. If you put it up in the cubby above/behind the center console display, do you see the same fluctuating behavior?
