  1. Any DIY ideas or projects anybody planning?

    Thinking about taking back seat out and diy a seat delete platform like the one goose gear makes for jeep gladiator.
  2. Winch in front bumper?

    I started a small conversation about wishes for a hidden winch in the sema measurement post Dont know how hidden it can me due to cooling ducts are so low on Maverick. Someone posted a picture of how creative they have gotten with winches on Subarus Time will tell once the experts get ahold of...
  3. What am I missing out on XL besides cruise

    Good point. Ill unscrew the door floor plate so I can look under carpet. If it doesnt help with sound ill take carpet out. It is SO much easier to use a mini power blower to blow junk out after a weekend beach overland or weekend on the trail
  4. What am I missing out on XL besides cruise

    Crap. XL doesn't need carpeted floors for what it is designed to do. IE: Work, play bare bones truck. Looks like I will need to put a new blade in my box cutter.
  5. Backseat delete, DIY Jeep Goose Gear storage plans

    If I pull the trigger on the Maverick, it will be an XL to use as a light adventure truck for weekends and up to 30 day trips. We are planning to start with the Southeast route of the Trans America Trrail. WV, NC, GA, TN. It will just be my wife and I and a dog and I don't need all the back...
  6. 2022 Maverick bed length with tailgate down = 78 3/4” - 79" Inches (Tape Measured Dimension)

    Great. Assuming that Honda's and Pringles tape measures are calibrated to industry standards, the Honda 125 trails we have ordered squeek in at 77.2 inches long. Hoping for an adjustable bed rack for rooftop tent and will not have to fiddle with the handlebars every time. Ordering the...
  7. For all you new trailer towers

    Small adjustments in steering while backing up go a long way to be successful. When you make a slight change it will take a few moments before it corrects back by the trailer. It is ok. Quick, large movements will bring damage and trouble. Use a combination of mirrors and actually moving...
  8. Towing a boat with Maverick?

    That is me and the 3200#. There isn't any science behind it. I usually only pull 80% of max trailer weight throughout the years. It gives me some wiggle room when needed and I have found out that is the sweet spot with all of my trucks so far. Plus I don't have to try to figure out the...
  9. Towing/Off Road Overlapping features and XLT keypad question

    I drove my 2wd, manual, 4 cyclinder Toyota pre runner up and down the Outerbanks for years without “sand mode”. The key was deflate tires and NO SPINNING. Heck I see more off-road package vehicles stuck now because they think if I push the button I am good to go and leave tires fully inflated...
  10. Towing/Off Road Overlapping features and XLT keypad question

    Skip the FX4 package to keep ECO and Sport options. With the higher gear ration of 4k towing and your little time offroading and what the Maverick will be capable of, you can replicate the other modes with two foot driving and a little practice. All these computer modes werent around but...
  11. Changed my order from XLT to XL

    You are commended for making a decision on what you need versus want. Congrats Now you have money in your pocket to customize it I dont know how much the rail lights are from Ford but my understanding is it is prewired to the cubbies and an easy aftermarket DIY My teenager wants me to...
  12. 2022MY Maverick will no longer offer FWD (W8E) with Trailer Tow Package (53Q). Must add AWD for 4K Towing

    It isn't that I don't have faith in Ford. Drinking 100% of a company Koolaid isn't healthy. I think it is a good decision they have made to halt orders on this setup for many reasons. If it was a supply issue it would say delayed and still take orders. Ford looks better by halting this...
  13. 2022MY Maverick will no longer offer FWD (W8E) with Trailer Tow Package (53Q). Must add AWD for 4K Towing

    We will see. You give Ford to much credit. This could be an example of "Upon further review it isn't a good idea" Ford thought it was a good idea to have a gas tank unprotected on a Pinto and to keep a certain Firestone tire on the Explorer for way too long. Plus, add the law of Physics to...
  14. 2022MY Maverick will no longer offer FWD (W8E) with Trailer Tow Package (53Q). Must add AWD for 4K Towing

    Glad to see this change. Was surprised this was even offered when Maverick was launched. Towing 4,000 pounds with a FWD, 2.0 L engine on a truck that weighs 3700# on a good day was not going to end well for some. Not to mention the front tire wear if you tow on the weekends. Even with AWD...
  15. What are you trading in / selling for your Maverick??

    Will sell my 2015 Honda Civic myself. Neighbors are begging me to sell it to them because they have a new driver in the house. Then begin the search for a dealership to sell me a Maverick.
  16. Any hard side pop-up campers for the Hybrid Maverick

    I doubt it. Pop up in cab for midsize trucks have porta potties as an extra option Space and weight is at a premium adding a toilet that needs a black tank is impossible Look at: Alucab Four wheel project m Superpacific And you will get an idea what a 5 foot can offer. A Maverick version...
  17. Article: Price Is Key Factor Why 2022 Ford Maverick Will Dominate Small Truck Segment

    I find it ironic on people/press saying this truck is a new segment. It is the original segment of what the Ranger, Frontier, S10 were not too long ago. You have to hand it to the manufacturers and the pr machine they have. Lets make trucks bigger and bigger and bigger over the next 15+...
  18. Cash / Lease / Finance your Maverick?

    There are large profits in the dealership when it comes to selling cars. Yes the Maverick has a low profit margin when it comes to $ amount but selling a lot of Maverick units helps a dealership make larger profits from incentives of x total units sold per month gives them extra coop advertising...
  19. Cash / Lease / Finance your Maverick?

    Thanks. After agreeing on price, Im very transparent with them and let them know they will lose a multi thousand dollar sell so keep the dealership bs in their pocket. Why lose thousands of dollars haggling over quarters. Plus I would hate for them to lose their Ford monthly kickback or...
  20. Cash / Lease / Finance your Maverick?

    Put it on Fidelity cash back card, pay it off during grace periods. 2% of purchase will go into retirement accounts.
