  1. Adaptive Cruise Control First time FAIL...

    I wonder if the sensors were properly re-calibrated when the windshield was replaced? It is my understanding that this is a required step to ensure your ACC, Lane Centering, etc. will work properly. It makes sense because the camera is mounted up by the rear-view mirror, and is used in...
  2. Runaway Cruise Control!! (Or maybe an old dog that doesn’t know the new tricks!)

    Actually, there were two pages posted, one for "regular" CC (pg 213) and the other for ACC (pg 219). Both are correct for the type of cruise control referenced.
  3. Runaway Cruise Control!! (Or maybe an old dog that doesn’t know the new tricks!)

    Incorrect. That is for standard cruise control. (Page 213 of the manual) Page 219 of the manual is for the Adaptive CC, and the expected (intended) behavior is quite different. In the Army, we used to say "RTFM!" (Short for Read The Funny Manual - OK, not really Funny, but this IS a...
  4. Runaway Cruise Control!! (Or maybe an old dog that doesn’t know the new tricks!)

    Actually, it probably IS normal... Here's what the manual says in the section about Adaptive Cruise Control (pg 219): Manually Changing the Set Speed: Press and release the toggle button upward to increase the set speed in small increments. Press and hold the toggle button upward to increase...
  5. Hybrid to EcoBoost Maverick - my story, logic and result

    I agree it can be a tough decision. I was lucky enough to find a rejected '22 Lariat Hybrid First Edition at a local dealer, and also fortunate enough to make enough by selling my Prius-C (well above what I thought it was worth) to offset the ADM required to close the deal. I still have two...
  6. Screen black out and cancellation warning

    Exactly! You'll hear a "ding" sound, and the lane-centering icon will be yellow, and there will be a popup (which rather quickly goes away on its own) stating "Lane Centering disabled" (or very similar). Then 2-3 seconds later, you'll look down and it has re-engaged (icon is now green)...
  7. Hydroplaning Hybrid vs AWD EcoBoost?

    Well, speed is a relative term... When it comes to hydroplaning, increasing speed would tend to aggravate hydroplaning as you said, but decreasing speed would tend to alleviate hydroplaning. I believe the latter is what @MinntoMich intended.
  8. My dealer claims there's a recall on my Maverick and he can't sell it

    Uh oh... This is hitting pretty close to home for me... One of my Maverick orders is with Ted Russell Ford. I was also dealing with a great saleswoman who left the company, and my order was also handed off to another salesman that I'd never had any contact with before, and who has been pretty...
  9. Ford needs to deliver as many Maverick Hybrids as possible

    Good question... Since there appears to be excess capacity at the plant in Hermosillo, the main constraint would appear to be limitations in the supply chain. I suspect the biggest issue with the supply chain is that they severely under-predicted the number that would be sold, and placed all...
  10. Ford needs to deliver as many Maverick Hybrids as possible

    At least not anywhere NEAR the published MSRP... :rolleyes:
  11. 40k Mile Hybrid Maverick review (including how it handles mud riding)

    Parallels my own experience with my Hybrid Lariat FE. We are enjoying this truck even more than I expected!
  12. After 111 Days - Six Impressions of my Hybrid XLT

    My Reggie is clearly thrilled that you named your Maverick after him... But he loves HIS Maverick!
  13. Manual adjust drivers seat ??

    You won't easily mix them up the 6-way seat levers in any way that matters... At least not after the first time you do so! The fore/aft lever is actually a bar running behind your knees, across the width of the seat. When you pull up on it, the seat is released to move freely fore and aft...
  14. Go Frogs!

    And, just like the Maverick, there's always next year... Hope springs eternal...
  15. Original Maverick/New Maverick

    It was only my favorite when one or more of Charlie's Angels were in it... With any of the three Angels onboard, it was a very attractive vehicle. Otherwise it was distinctly uninspiring.
  16. Need more legroom - modify seat or pedals?

    On my Lariat Lux, "raising" the seat lifts only the back side of the seat. It basically pivots at the front mounting points.
  17. What does this REALLY mean?

    It means "Keep looking for a rejected order Maverick at a dealer near you, because your odds are still less than 50% for your Hybrid Maverick to be built in 2023."
  18. Texas Steelies for sale - Austin, TX - $200

    Wow! I must be going blind! Sorry about that! I go through the "new posts" list and open a bunch of threads in new tabs, then go through them one by one... I just realized that the thread titles NEVER show in that scenario!
  19. I'm looking for feedback on if I should buy now and trade when my new one comes in?

    Um... Aren't all Mavericks (eco and hybrid) fuel injected? For that matter, does anyone know of any carbureted automobiles still being sold in the US?
  20. VIDEO: TSB 22-2493 Hybrid Brake Fix - C Grade

    For inching up behind another car (or in my case - closing in on the water softener in my garage), I found that turning "AutoHold" OFF (toggle the right-most button at the rear of the center console - the one that looks like a "hand" surrounded by parentheses) prevented the "lurch" to a stop and...
