  1. Rattle under Vehicle when cold

    Mine just did this the other day when it dropped down to 17 degrees F. Will be implementing your fix. Good info.
  2. What changes to Maverick engineering would you like for the next evolution?

    Truck staying in the last mode selected (eco, sport, whatever) would be a simple change they could make that would be an instant win for the end user. Default to whatever mode the driver last set it to.
  3. What changes to Maverick engineering would you like for the next evolution?

    Split folding rear seat. Would be nice to be able to fold half of it versus the whole thing.
  4. Wind whistle from driver's door area, 2025 XL

    Adding this in case it helps anyone searching in the future. I learned yesterday that the noise almost disappears when I change the hvac to recirc. Switch to fresh air, sound comes right back. Someone trying to trace a similar issue down the line may find this tidbit useful.
  5. Unpaid Maverick Sales Advocate !

    Thanks. I noticed yesterday that the whistle 90% disappears in recirc mode. Fresh air mode, comes right back. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/wind-whistle-from-drivers-door-area-2025-xl.68399/
  6. Would You Buy Your Maverick Again?

    Probably not, in hindsight. If someone came up to me tomorrow with an offer that meant I wasn’t taking a bath, I’d probably take it. But it’s paid for, and I can’t justify taking a huge hit by trading it and either having a car payment again or taking money out of savings to cover the...
  7. Do you get comments on the street about your Maverick?

    Never once, but I’ve only had mine since April ā€˜25.
  8. Maverick owners demographics - just curious

    I’m 56 and now that you mention it, I’ve never seen anyone younger than myself driving a Maverick or getting into or out of one in a parking lot. The only other person who I personally know who owns one is 78 yo. A guy in my neighborhood has one as well, again, I’d say he’s prob late fifties...
  9. Unpaid Maverick Sales Advocate !

    I’ve never once been asked a single question about my Maverick or had anyone express the slightest interest in it. Maybe because they are all over local roads at this point. Alternately, maybe I look like a scary troll, and there are people who are curious but afraid to engage the troll...
  10. Rough Country hard tri fold with Elevate rails

    Could have sworn I read somewhere here that they do indeed work together, and pretty sure back when I bought my RC tonneau, it was listed as working with the TS rails. 6 months later, seems the fit guide no longer lists the RC cover as being compatible, and searching around online says no, they...
  11. Light Blue color 2026 Maverick coming later in model year (~February 2026)

    My old sales manager at the dealership used to call it ā€œNo Sell Blueā€.
  12. Is the Mav the best vehicle and value you have ever owned - hybrid only responses.

    6 years working at a dealership In the 00’s.
  13. Is the Mav the best vehicle and value you have ever owned - hybrid only responses.

    Best can mean a lot of things. I added it up the other day, and Iā€˜ve owned 74 cars/trucks in my life including the three current ones. Nope, this isn’t the best. I give the design an 8.5/10, execution 5/10.
  14. Things I wish I knew before I bought my Maverick

    Things I wish I had paid more attention to pre purchase: The seats are the least comfortable I’ve had on a modern vehicle. I did some pondering on this and I think I figured out why. The bottom cushion is unusually narrow, to my surprise narrower than our tiny Prius. This puts the side bolsters...
  15. This thing rides like a buckboard...

    I find the ride quality totally fine on the highway, but pretty brittle at low speeds in town. Especially expansion joints and the like, the small sharp impacts. I probably notice this more than I normally would because the dash rattles a lot when I hit shallow potholes or expansion joints...
  16. Hybrid fuel economy advantage vs cost of battery

    Anecdotal data point for you, Our Prius is 8 years old now, 130k-ish, no sign of any battery problems yet. A coworker had one and the battery died around 250k miles. Similar setup as the Maverick.
  17. Wind noise while driving

    My wind whistle has me in the same head space. Highly interested in whether you find a solution. I’m pretty frugal, but at the same time I’m reaching an age where I just want stuff to work properly and have less patience than I used to for stuff like this.
  18. I Think The Maverick is The Best Entry Level Vehicle Ever Created

    Iā€˜d add on ā€œcurrently available for the money IF having a small pickup bed is a necessity.ā€ Sounds like I’m like you. I ended up with a Maverick despite it being significantly flawed due to lack of other options in the segment. If you want a small 40 mpg pickup, you’re buying a Maverick. i will...
  19. I Think The Maverick is The Best Entry Level Vehicle Ever Created

    Have owned two of them, an 81 diesel and 83 gas. Always wanted an early 80s Dodge Rampage, but could never find a decent one.
