  1. Contemplating a front passenger seat delete

    I'd be curious about what some of those "pet protector" back seat things do for rear sleeping. Because some of them have an extended platform that covers the footwell... gives a bit more width. I am a fair bit larger than "fun size" but can sometimes get comfy sleeping with my legs out in an L...
  2. Need help with winter wheels

    Well yeah if you're sure there's asphalt down there, within a foot or so, otherwise you wanna go full tundra buggy balloons.
  3. How to display hybrid power screen

    Is it the one where you have the drive mode main screen up and select it on there?
  4. Bed Mat

    At the tighter than a ducks arsehole end of the budget, there's EVA foam, I have been impressed my how little anything moved when I put it down on this https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/20-dollar-bed-bedecking-marvel-at-the-opulence.71988/ and drove it home. You can also find...
  5. Daily Driving in Lobo Mode

    It's not hyperactive? The PTU. Compared to trundling round in basically FWD most of the time.
  6. Four Power Modes

    Nice explain, I don't think it fully clicked until now that it can seamlessly flow from generation to series, to parallel and percentages in between. Addendum explainer for Whovians. "Wibbly wobbly drivey wivey stuff"
  7. Daily Driving in Lobo Mode

    I would anticipate increased wear on the diffs and PTU and servicing should be adjusted to reflect that.
  8. Need help with winter wheels

    Test fit is best check. Had one back in the day, 14" temporary spare, 15" wheels on the car, temp spare fits of course, try 14" alloys, couldn't even reach bolt holes. bouncing off the caliper. Try a 14" steel I had hanging around, because alloys are somewhat chunky monkeys, and I could just...
  9. Is there a pinch weld grinding video for the Mav out there?

    Yeah I was figuring if there was any "Poking the Gods of structural integrity in the eye with a sharp stick" going on, the XJ crowd would be in the thick of it. Maybe the Bronco Sport dudes have done something too.
  10. How to Turn Off Reverse Beacon / Alert Sound?

    Heh anyone seen those videos of people who have hacked those "Big Mouth Billy Bass" animatronic rubber fish to "sing" an mp3 or streamed music. Mounting one of those on the back that actually pronounces "Beep, beep, beep, sigh, beep, beep, beep" would be somewhat hilarious.
  11. 2025 Ford Maverick featured on Motoworld

    That's some tasty numbers they put up at the strip, 6.7 0-60 and 15.3 in the quarter at 94.... I am hearing something about the HF55 in 2025 awds allowing the traction motor to access more battery power if the battery is happy and "up for it."
  12. Tailgate letter changes on Oxford White

    I get terrible temptations with the letters, like ordering a set of the fill ins, throwing a couple out, modifying another, so I get like...
  13. Maverick Price Increase ("Apples to Apples")

    Apparently it's the safety systems involved that make it spendy... https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/why-car-power-windows-work-differently/
  14. U-haul 6x12 trailer, what ball hitch and drop do I need?

    Following along, as I want to have a "generic" as possible hitch on hand for whatever comes up. Thinking the one I've got similar to that Curt is probably okayish for now. This showed up in the reddit group, seems to have a similar hitch and that open utility rides just a touch high on it, by...
  15. New to the club with my 2025 Azure Gray Maverick Hybrid Lariat AWD.

    I get that with the officially blue Vapor Blue on the Escape, at night it's grey, and under cloudy skies, but then it pops when the sun is out.
  16. Poll: Who here is interested in Buying the New Ford EV Midsize Pickup in 2027

    Calculate a different one? "Rumours" 1977, Track 5.
  17. New to the club with my 2025 Azure Gray Maverick Hybrid Lariat AWD.

    Noice, I think this color would have been the box I clicked if I was custom ordering, but it was almost a dead heat with this Velocity Blue. I had to buy from stock for the Ford Canada employee pricing, and a VB was available while the AGs were gone around here, some units still coming in...
  18. DIY HOW TO: Install adaptive cruise control in Maverick Hybrid XLT with Luxury package

    If it was between a couple of internal modules a few inches apart I would have said don't worry about it.... buuut, we're talking about that thing right up front, the other side of the engine bay, and exposed to all kinds of signals from other vehicles nearby. So between engine bay noise, length...
  19. Feels like a truck until…..

    So I got this somewhat less mechanically bright nephew, and when he was 18 his inlaws passed him along a i6 Chevy that had just been trundling round town with a landscape trailer for 20 years, 200,000 miles. Anyway, I guess he was informed it was "bullet proof", so he'd be commuting 40 miles in...
  20. Poll: Who here is interested in Buying the New Ford EV Midsize Pickup in 2027

    Remembered what the hell it was.. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/b40068311/ "3M 5151" Got to thinking I might remember where the hell it is. I think Uline carries the stuff but price is eyewatering, $500 might be on the mark for Canadian pricing. Gotta figure surface prep/priming for that...
