  1. Black Appearance Package - Any interior pictures? Thoughts?

    Well, so are the brown/blue seats in the Lariat. But I believe if you get the XLT, the BAP seats are black cloth. Frankly, I would have preferred the XLT interior with BAP on my Lariat order, but had to go with Lariat (plus Lux/CP360/Assist) to get the Adaptive Cruise Control. I ordered the...
  2. Email received after 23 order?

    I guess I was lucky choosing my sales guy. He sat down with me at the sales manager's computer, and we entered exactly what I wanted on my order. It took a couple of tries to submit it to Ford (kept saying "Something happened, try again later") but he stuck to it and got it in. Then we took a...
  3. [UPDATE] Forscan Mod: Enable 12v Outlets Always Hot or Change Delay Variable

    I currently drive a Prius C, which is a decent in town car, but not exactly a “road warrior.” I suppose I might (maybe) be able to ”camp” in mine with the seats folded – if I was 3’6” tall, and didn’t mind a 2-inch “hump” right in the middle of my back…. The cargo area is pretty small, and...
  4. Disappointing 31.5 mpg on 850 miles trip: LA-Arizona-LA

    One gentleman made an interesting video comparing mpg over the same 13.5 mile stretch of highway, with the only significant variable being the speed he drove. He drove at 80, 70, 60, and finally 50 mph (though the 50 mph speed probably had him in fear for his life, given everyone else was...
  5. Drive belt on the 2.5L engine

    Just be sure not to select the "Recirculate" setting! 🤣🤣
  6. [UPDATE] Forscan Mod: Enable 12v Outlets Always Hot or Change Delay Variable

    OMG... The thought of spending 12+ hours in a stationary Prius is truly horrifying. I have a Prius C (which I know is ever so slightly smaller), but I can barely sit there for 4 hours between Dallas and Austin... I can't help thinking 12 hours in a Maverick would be a LOT more palatable than...
  7. New guys/gals on the block -- you've just ordered a fantastic little truck!

    Hey! I have that exact same Aventon Aventure bike in Electric Red... Love the bike! Also like you, I purchased a Carbonized Gray Hybrid Lariat from a dealer for the same reason - the guy who ordered it got tired of waiting and bailed to something else... Should be picking it up this week...
  8. Ordering info for Atlas Blue and Tremor Package (as of 9/17/22)

    Sorry - my bad. I meant to say "Alto Blue Metallic" and typed Atlas instead... (I'm correcting my original post above...)
  9. Ordering info for Atlas Blue and Tremor Package (as of 9/17/22)

    Based on the 2023 Maverick Packaging Guide, Alto Blue Metallic is NOT available on the XL. Neither are Hot Pepper Red, Cyber Orange, or Avalanche Gray (which is a Tremor-only color, anyway). Better find another color you can live with... [Edited to say "Alto Blue Metallic" instead of Atlas...
  10. 2023 Maverick Retail Order Banks Closing Next Week + Tremor Package Ordering Starts Tomorrow (9/17)

    For those trying to order an XL in Atlas Blue - check the order guide. It clearly shows that Atlas Blue, Cyber Orange, and Hot Pepper Red are not available on the XL. (Of course, Avalanche Gray is also not available, since the Tremor package is not available on the XL model, either.) I think...
  11. 2023 Maverick Retail Order Banks Closing Next Week + Tremor Package Ordering Starts Tomorrow (9/17)

    I'm afraid you're right. Last night, the local news had a run-down on the largest campaign contributors to our state's governor's race. The single largest contributor to one of them was an auto dealer group. They contributed well over a million dollars. No way that candidate would ever allow...
  12. What’s new: changes for 2023 Maverick

    Yep - I was about to add that info to the original reply I had started, but my wife asked me to walk the dog, and when I got back, I forgot I hadn't actually added it... As I get older, the line between "I'm gonna..." and "I did..." gets more and more blurry. :sneaky: I've used that with...
  13. 2023 Maverick Order Guide [PDF] is Here!

    Given that the order window is closing soon (possibly 9/21 if the "rumors" are correct"), I would NOT wait to place an order. It's my understanding that you can change your order up to the point where a VIN is assigned. I'm not quite 100% convinced on the BAP myself, but ordered it anyway...
  14. What’s new: changes for 2023 Maverick

    And it doesn't require periodic updates to stay accurate. Yes. We were driving some backroads in a very remote area northeast of Taos, NM. Gorgeous country, but zero cell reception up there. The various cell phone mapping apps download "tiles" of data corresponding to your current position...
  15. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    And he would likely have had a stroke if you casually mentioned that your "empty" tank holds 13.8 gallons. In the RAM, that's what would be called an "appetizer" for the Hemi... Can't wait to get mine. (It's "in transit" and is supposed to arrive at the dealership in a few days!)
  16. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Yessir! That is THE color! Cyber Orange Mavericks just look so good!
  17. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Had to laugh about "Maverick porn"... That's exactly what my wife calls it. I'm waiting for my Carbonized Gray Maverick Hybrid Lariat to arrive at the dealership (it's been shipped, per the Ford tracking site) and the wait is just excruciating! I'm even going back and watching all the Ford...
  18. Any Black Appearance Package Maverick pics?

    Reading between the lines, I suspect the "black door handles" are only on the inside door pulls (in place of the "desert brown" pulls). I think the outside door handles will remain body-colored, as in the picture.
  19. Any Black Appearance Package Maverick pics?

    Too bad you're way up north and I'm in Central Texas, because I would swap the black ActiveX seats for black fabric seats in a heartbeat... (My wife said "Well, as long as both have the seat heaters... She loves heated seats in the winter.) If I could have gotten the Adaptive Cruise Control...
