    Very easy to ignore, thanks for stepping out.
  2. I Hate the Stupid Dial Shifter: Now With Poll

    10 pages on this stupidity again? It can't be changed and won't be either.....Move on or sell your maveick. Good thing it's easy to ignore both people and thread.
  3. FOB Battery Dead at 2.33 years?

    I replace all my our vehicle fob batteries for me, wife and daughters even year....NY Eve. It's easy and a simple 5 minute job. Also replace the batteries in all my firearm scopes and red dots the same day, easy less simple 15 minute job. And of course Smoke alarms get replaced annually as...
  4. Solar panel for battery maintainer

    Just get an optimate battery maintainer. You can get 30ft leads with multiple attachment points. Put a pigtail on the battery and plug in to let it do its thing. Used on Motorcycles for over a decade and Porsche for about 5 years.
  5. Ford delays new EV pickup to 2027

    Forget the planet, EV's have a ton of power and are fun to drive. Too late to fix what's already been damaged with the planet as the will just isn't there to do and pay for what needs to be done. Eventually the planet wide disasters will convince/kill us, but until then, smoky burnouts are...
  6. Ford delays new EV pickup to 2027

    You completely made this up. Sold my 2017 Mercedes B250E last year to Carvana for 3K more than I paid for it in 2021, Range had dropped 1%. Used the money to buy an EB Maverick. Also sold my Porsche Boxster (ICE) back to Porsche for more than I paid and went out to buy a Rivian R1T EV. Best...
  7. Ford delays new EV pickup to 2027

    100% agree. I bought a Rivian R1T with 351 mile range after Ford screwed up the Lightning launch. I charge to 70% 252 miles and drive about 25 miles/week. Realistically I could have bought the 250 or 270 mile version based on my normal week. On the other hand I can get to Orlando with just...
  8. Ford delays new EV pickup to 2027

    Maybe, but Ford's problem is 100% on Ford, not Ford's customers.. They introduced the F150 lightning to huge fanfare with over a couple hundred thousand reservations. People wanted what they introduced including myself, not a pickup truck guy. Then a year went by and they could only produce...
  9. Dealers with high # of 2025 Maverick Allocations

    Find the largest multi branded truck dealer in your state and order from them. In my case Akins about 55 miles from me, ordered in Oct23, delivered in Dec23 with 1K deposit when ordered. Deposit was really to avoid them wasting time on uncommitted customers playing games (their quote). Truck...
  10. First EB Roadtrip, Pretty Impressed

    I did the rough math and the first digit was a 3 so stopped there. Mid 30's is definitely possible if I drove at 65 instead of 75 which seems like of amazing for the brick the maverick is in the wind. I would have been fine with 20 and honestly have never cared about MPG until today as our...
  11. First EB Roadtrip, Pretty Impressed

    Dropped my daughter off at college, 228 miles one way @ 75MPH with cruise control. Back seat and bed was packed solid and I was pretty impressed with 30.6 (was 32 on the highway) when I filled up the tank from halfway. Ride, handling, brakes all good, too bad it's with her for the year at...
  12. Michelin CrossClimate 2 Review - Hybrid - 10,000 Miles

    We put 30K on small mercedes EV with CC2 and their #1 rating in everything was well justified. I couldn't get them for my EB as they were OOS so grabbed Falken Wildpeaks another highly rated tire.
  13. '23 hybrid towing *gulp* 3k

    You're going to do it anyway and the liability is all yours to take. No-one is going to recommend it as it's unsafe to you and everyone on the road. As others have said it can be done, which doesn't mean it should be done. If something goes wrong this thread will be used against you.
  14. Ford files patent for "snitching"...?

    In some jurisdictions camera tickets and this sort of nonsense won't fly unless ticket receiver acquiesces. For example when I lived in TX I got a red light camera ticket and a friend was ticketed for moving near a stopped school bus. In both cases we were definitely wrong (I blew it and they...
  15. Ford Hiked The Maverick's Base Price By Nearly 25 Percent In Three Years

    The story is a bit misleading, discussing MSRP and not the actual price of the hottest recent Ford vehicle. When the original hybrid Maverick came out MSRP was under 20K, but clearly out the door was at least 25-30K if you could find one at all. Now the MSRP is between 25-30K and dealer...
  16. Anyone have a writeup or video to replace 12V EB Battery?

    Odyssey Battery......come on man, this is why people hate this site. Oh you're in Florida, I get it now. https://www.odysseybattery.com/
  17. Anyone have a writeup or video to replace 12V EB Battery?

    I bought an Odyssey and went to do the swap removing negative, then positive, hold down, etc. The battery won't pull up, saw another video where someone indicates front will lift up but rear of 12V is held by tabs and the battery needs to slide out towards front of vehicle. Anyone have a...
  18. Jimmy is bringing it down slowly and steadily

    Stock price is not a measure of a companies health or turnaround status. Consensus is nothing more that analysts guesses, not a measure of anything as a company can grow yet still miss consensus of what the street thinks they will grow. I recall years and years of earnings, revenue and profit...
  19. Flange nut left over after oil change

    Came out of the engine when you changed the oil. Good on you for getting it out of there. Looks like a nut from part of the suspension. Maybe an extra in the underbody shield dropped during production?
