  1. Installing Running Boards - Is it hard?

    With the iBoard running boards cutting the liner was extremely easy. I was surprised by how easy t was to cut with a simple razor knife. I did a thorough description of my install on another thread in this forum. Just search for Running Board install, it should show up.
  2. Will Area 51 become a classic?

    I don't think Area 51 will become a classic but it seems to be attractive to some members of the opposite sex. I recently was at the local recyclers when I heard a woman say, loudly, "What a beautiful color." When I turned to see what had brought on the remark i realized that a very attractive...
  3. Prices in the used market

    Update: received a new estimate from Carvana this morning with a value of $36, 108. A $4,000 increase in the past nine days. Also, it is now higher than what I paid.
  4. Taillight seals seeping / leaking road grime ?

    FriarPop is correct. The area behind the light is wide open to any potential road debris getting in. You might just have to seat the taillight correctly. Mine came fully loose but I was able to get them to seat and seal just by applying a quick hit with the palm of my hand to seat the two...
  5. Tailgate cable (one loose one tight)

    I had the same issue on a new 2019 Ford Ranger. When I asked the dealer about it, he looked at all of the Rangers and F150's on his sales lot and found that all of them had this issue. He did not know why the cables are different lengths.
  6. Prices in the used market

    2023 Lariat EB, lots of bell and whistles, 1,500 miles. Carvana offered me $32,500 today. That is $2,500 less than I paid for it. So, don't get your hopes up if you ordered an eco-boost.
  7. iBoardauto.com Running Boards Install

    The running boards look good but don't really provide any assistance for me when it comes to getting into or out of the truck. At first I bumped my shins on them when getting in but quickly adapted to that. Getting out is a different matter. The boards rub against the back of my calves every...
  8. Fit and Finish - Loose Taillight

    I figured out and fixed the problem. All I needed to do, once everything was correctly aligned, was give the light fixture housing a good whack with the palm of my hand over the spots where the mounting studs were located. This effectively seated the mounting studs into the vehicle frame...
  9. Addition of running boards necessary on Lariat FX4?

    I installed a set of iBoardauto.com (from Amazon) six inch wide running boards on my Lariat. They do lower your ground clearance by a few inches but not any lower than your stock mudflaps so they shouldn't be an issues.
  10. Where to buy Running Boards for my XLT?

    Amazon has them from a company called iBoardauto.com. They have them in four, five and six inch wide versions. I installed the six inch version. The are too wide for the Maverick and get in the way of entering and exiting the vehicles. I posted a a message on my experience installing them. I...
  11. Having problems installing running boards with s bolts?

    I checked out Nunyabiznus' suggestion for alternatives to using a "S" bolt. I contacted the web site and asked for the dimensions of the head of the bolt to see if it would fit through the pre-existing hole of the truck. It looks like it should. The head is 23/32 of an inch long and 5/16 of...
  12. iBoardauto.com Running Boards Install

    In reply to Oneeye's question: The top of the running board is at 11.5 inches from the ground. The sill of the front door is at 19.5 inches. The running board gains you 8 inches of lowered access. It might help in your situation. If you are taller this could make it difficult to bend over...
  13. iBoardauto.com Running Boards Install

    I do hit my shins on them when entering and they rub against the back of my legs when exiting. Hopefully I will get used to it.
  14. iBoardauto.com Running Boards Install

    23 Lariat, Eco-Boost: I was given a new set of Six Inch iBoardauto.com running boards for my new Maverick (delivered by Amazon). My first impression was: Why? A Maverick really doesn't need running boards for the vast majority of owners and users. But since I had them, I decided to mount...
  15. Fit and Finish - Loose Taillight

    23 Lariat Eco-boost, 2,000 miles: I recently found that my passenger side taillight was very loose. When I tightened the mounting bolts they did tighten up but also caused the light fixture to pull away from the body. On closer inspection, I found that there are two plastic mounting/alignment...
  16. Maverick will not connect to home WIFI

    I drove over to the Ford Dealer and was able to connect to their Guest WIFI. I checked for updates there. I have the latest update. Came home and figured out how to add a second network to my modem (it allows me to have at least 11 networks on the modem). I gave the new network a simple...
  17. Maverick will not connect to home WIFI

    It is a T-Mobile Arcadyn KVD21 Gateway. Had it about one year. It is lightning fast with virtually no dropped signals, lag or difficulty logging in. I have five other devices using the same password. Only two devices were using the WIFI this morning when I tried to log in from the vehicle.
  18. Maverick will not connect to home WIFI

    On a 2023 Lariat. Had the vehicle for a few months. I have tried multiple times to connect to our home WIFI network. The vehicle finds the network easily. The signal is strong. But, it will not accept the WIFI password. The password is the original WIFI password supplied by the modem...
  19. Lariat Badging Lacking?

    I couldn't find any Lariat badges so I made my own. I took a picture of the side badge and had a local graphics guy turn it into a sticker. Not sure if I like it yet. Oh well it will peel off easily enough.
  20. Lariat Badging Lacking?

    After doing some research it seems that I must have seen a Raptor grill not a Ranger grill. Apparently, I can't tell the difference when looking at it through my rear view mirror.
