Not sure I just searched for ‘gray ford Maverick’. Mine is Area 51. Maybe I should be watching out for aliens?

Probably turned some heads driving that setup.

This is gray: This is a grey: :p

From what I've read on various truck websites it seems to be a few percent improvement in MPG. Soft covers are better for MPG, since hard/folding covers offset any aerodynamic improvement by being heavy. I don't have a cover currently, but will eventually get one mostly for keeping rain off...

Guess it could be the AC, I usually keep it on Auto at 68F. Didn't open the hood to check, just thought it was louder than other vehicles I've driven.

Started the truck to cool it down while loading up the bed, it was parked.

I don't know about the AC, but in my hybrid when the big radiator fan kicks in it sounds like a small airplane taking off from outside the truck. Could probably fly an ultralight with it! I'd rather have the cooling over engineered than under, but it was surprising the first time I heard it...

I read the title as 'cow mangled my antenna' and thought you got off pretty lightly! o_O

Averaging just over 40mpg so far, using the fill up/mileage method. Onboard number runs about 2mpg high, but seems to be getting slightly more accurate (tenths of an MPG) with each fill up.

I find the front seats pretty comfortable so far (2 month old XL). A little firm maybe. Longest stretch I’ve driven straight through is a little over an hour though. 6’3”/230 fwiw

Pulled out my paperwork, didn’t see those but there was a $699 “dealer processing fee”.

Stopped by the dealership yesterday to drop off some papers, people in the lobby were complaining about wait times. One of the sales guys apologized and said “we’re getting hammered by Maverick orders the bank just opened”.

Knew a guy back in the 90s who would “burp” his tank when filling up, he’d fill until the click then bounce up and down on the rear bumper, then fill another half gallon or so. Otherwise you have all the bed space, maybe try a auxiliary tank setup like this: :cool:

Gotta slap a performance cam in there!

I went with NFCU when I purchased about a month ago, best offer from dealership was 7.5%.

Hydro Flask Sport, confirmed fit.

Been very impressed with the TW Hybrid line. Gave me almost 5 months of water beading over the winter on vehicles parked outside (no garage) with little maintenance. NC winter so more rain than snow but that’s impressive for a spray on wipe off product.
