I think I'd like the behavior you have described. The Toyota does NOT behave that way. It's a short-term rental so I've not learned how to customize or disable the system. The basic control choices allow you to adjust the sensitivity when the cc is on, but that's the only adaptive cc control...
I loved my '06 Frontier, and the new ones are greatly improved, so good for you. If I needed a truck for heavy hauling and towing, the Maverick would not have been my choice, but for what I wanted and needed, my XLT Lux Eco FX4 with towing package is exactly what I needed and wanted. I test...
I didn't get the Lariat and had been regretting my choice--no adaptive cruise on the XLT for one thing. BUT...I've been in a rental '23 Toyota Tacoma with adaptive cruise now for several days while I'm getting some warranty service on my Maverick and I absolutely H A T E the adaptive cruise...
Not precisely. I was told "a driveline was warped and must be replaced." When I asked what could have caused that, they said it must have been a faulty part from the factory. The shake was only noticable under acceleration hard enough to engage all four driven wheels. Under cruise conditions...
My Maverick is still at the dealer awaiting parts (since the 22nd). I've been contacted directly by a Ford Motor Co. customer service representative, who has assigned a case number of CAS-40191535-P9Q8G8. I got a call from the dealer (Robert Horne Ford, LLC) this morning to tell me they are...
Got mine into the dealer for service yesterday. They just reported to me that the driveline is 'warped' and causing the shake and must be replaced. They have ordered the part and are treating me well.
Thanks. My VIN is 3FTTW8F95NRA22857. My local dealer (with whom I have the appointment for diagnostics) is Robert Horne Ford, 3400 S. Tomahawk Rd, Apache Juntion, AZ 85119, phone 480-474-2500. My service advisor is Ashlee.
My XLT FX4 w/Lux and Towing packages, 13,000 miles, has developed a shaking on moderate to hard acceleration -- like accelerating from 45 - 65 to merge onto the freeway. The shaking, which is a 'low frequency' shake (almost like a knot on a front tire), can be felt in the floor boards and the...
I'm in my mid-70s and I'm quite happy with the XLT sound system. I normally use Apple Car Play through a wireless dongle. The sound seems fine with lots of bass and medium treble. Of course, being old, I don't play it much at volume 20. I find 14 to be very comfortable on the highway. I'd...
My 2.0 EB AWD is nearly at 12K miles. I have noticed that I can now feel the shifts through the lower gears, which was not the case early on. Good luck and keep us posted, please.
I love, love, love my XLT, but if I were doing it again I’d get the Lariat for the push-to-start (which I didn’t think I’d miss, but, boy oh boy, do I) and the adaptive cruise control. The reason for getting the XLT? I wanted fabric seats. My XLT Lux, AWD, 4K-tow, and FX4 is wonderful. The radio...
I didn't do any manual calculations on this trip, but I've done that before on this Maverick and the trip meter checked out to be quite accurate. I just bought the lowest grade of fuel available from major retailers (quite a few COSTCO tank-fulls in there.)
Just completed a three-week trip through Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, and back to Arizona. 2,606 miles, much of it on unpaved mountain or desert, some in town, lots on the freeway. Not a single hiccup. 31.7 mpg overall on the trip. At this point, with 11,105.9 miles from new, the lifetime...
