Just got back from American Toppers with the install of the A.R.E. DCU 29" topper. I need to buy or make a wind deflector for the front (loosing about 10mpg), but other than that I'm happy. 3 100W solar panels will go on the top.
That just proves how much bigger they started making the Rangers. I had a Ranger around 1988 and 1994 or so. They both were smaller than my Maverick by a long shot.
I read somewhere that someone wanted a side by side comparison of an older Ranger to the Maverick. I just happened to pull in and park next to an older model Ranger so I snapped a pic comparing the sizes. My how times have changed!
I've never received an email. But the site shows mine is built on 1/29 as well. It shows XL instead of XLT also, but the sticker shows XLT so that is no big deal. It's been 15+ months for me so far.

My dealer told me that they did what they were supposed to do for my rollover and that the ball was in FMC court. So I wait. He said my VIN will change, but I just looked at Ford.com and I see that my order and old VIN are still showing as "ordered" and chat representatives are not available...
Everybody should go in and build out a MY23 with as close to the same specs as your MY22 and you're going to find the truck is priced ~2K higher than what your original buying price was. If FMC don't honor our original pricing along with the $2750 incentive, we are only gaining about $700 for...
I just got my "dreaded" Ford Tuesday email. Was changed again from 12/12 to 12/19. Why are they bothering if they are just going to push them to '23's?
It is just today Oct 17, 2022. Are you a time traveler? Be honest! Did you just mess up and give us information you weren't supposed to divulge? Come on, you can tell me. I won't tell nobody else! Promise!
I planned on a similar a.r.e. cap. But I'm getting a wedge cap. I was wondering about the front leaking because of the unibody. Glad to hear someone reporting in. Someone else suggested the spoiler. I too was considering this to help. But I think that would be helpful when driving, not if...
Take a gigantic bicycle inner tube, fit it between the topper and the truck. Air it up for a great seal. Another option is to form a trough between the cab and the topper. Only options to stop leaking in the front. Nowhere for the water to go other than inside, no matter how much a seal you put...
I don't think it's a shortage, I think it's a malfunction. I don't think they are deploying when they should. That was my understanding. I don't know anything about previous built Mavs from July. Just that my dealer has a fleet of Mavs for a business and they cannot leave the lot until the...
