  1. Members who seem to disappear

    just so long as they've been washed since you bought your maverick! Gosh, I always thought that that color stood out . . . :crazy:
  2. My Baby Has Been Wounded!

    You've been a member here long enough to know that it's clearly totaled! :eek:
  3. Carvana Used Maverick Trade In Values are NUTS!

    decades ago, my girlfriend's father asked about the trade in for his rabbit pickup (yes, they really made that, and it suited his needs for a farm truck just fine). Flipping through the booklet, $1,450. Less $500 for over 100k, and less $1,000 for diesel."You owe us $50." "I think I can do...
  4. No longer in the MTC.

    We initially looked at the Maverick for me (a '24, iirc), and the left leg room was disqualifying. She was not a competent salesgirl, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was something she hadn't shown me, or if the seat was obstructed in the track, or . . . We got the '25 Maverick for my wife...
  5. Let’s talk Dash Cams

    I had to handle a final personal injury case in spite of being retired. The punk who hit him not only immediately lied about what happened, but had a cousin following himk who backed it up. Aside from the sheer improbability of his story, I immediately informed the adjuster that I needed the...
  6. No longer in the MTC.

    When I first sat in a Maverick, while considering it for me, after I ruled it out, I also tried a Ranger. Both seemed to have identical left leg room (my primary consideration!) Both of those were XLT I ordered the Lariat for my wife, and it seems to have a bit more (enough that I can drive...
  7. Top Tier+ Gasoline

    Utensils with pizza is like wearing something under your kilt! (which, for the record, makes it a "skirt") :teehee:
  8. Interstate driving with a 2024 Maverick Hybrid?

    just a note: if you're a taller person, make sure you have a couple of towels or small pillows handy. Around town, not a problem at all, but for longer distances, being able to insert support under left thighs makes a huge difference. And the same for being able to add a bit of lower back...
  9. Is 4k Towing Package Worth It

    in that case, buy the extra cooling, and get the 4k towing thrown in free . . .
  10. Symbol of a red triangle with an “!” In the middle of the triangle

    On those ones, all you had to do was have the engine running and open the door, iirc. They just didn't have the ROM storage to record something like, "the door is open". Try a Santa Clara county light rail. :rolleyes: those relays click hard enough to knock the squirrels off the roof.
  11. Is 4k Towing Package Worth It

    I assume that Chandler is the one in Arizona? I live in Las Vegas, where 117F isn't a rare temperature to drive in. Without ever expecting to tow, I ordered it just for the cooling. Lose one car to to heat death, and, well .. . And then since I did have it, I picked up my car hauler early...
  12. Article - Next gen Maverick is very important to Ford

    aww, nuts. apparently my wife is right, and I' a Centurion. At least I can pass for Alpha rather than Proxima Centauri . . . I think that they were shift-option- n & m respectively on a Mac, but word processors have changed single and double hyphens for nearly four decades now, so . . ...
  13. Symbol of a red triangle with an “!” In the middle of the triangle

    Remember the old Chrysler, "door ajar" to fit? and on my '97 Eldorado Touring Coupe, I was trying to figure out what it wanted me to do when it told me to "Turn signal on." Turns out that it meant that my turn signal was on . . . :blush:
  14. Symbol of a red triangle with an “!” In the middle of the triangle

    And when the dealer hands the poor schmuck his bill, it will be spelled, "gouge" . . . :crackup: uhm, the word for unable to eject her is "totaled" ! :eek:
  15. More Math Mayhem

    my new house was built as 2,000 sq ft, and later got a 750 sq ft addition, for a total of 25,000 . . . House 250, Math 0!
  16. Hybrid MPG gauge too high by 5.6%

    Blindly believing the odometer? 😜 Your arteries, colon, and other assorted organs thank you! :teehee:
  17. Symbol of a red triangle with an “!” In the middle of the triangle

    It rather obviously means that your Maverick is low on warnings. Stop by your dealer to have your warnings topped off ASAP! :facepalm:
  18. adaptive cruse adjustments 2026 ford maverick

    It's mostly good, and I have it on most of the time. But it definitely has its quirks, like the 100% failure rate on school zone signs, the gross overreaction to a decelerating vehicle ahead of me (or in the next lane).' It's certainly useful, but you have to keekeep your eyes on it. And you...
  19. Full pallet of solar panels 1,056 lbs

    Nah, he's just feeding all those solar panels back through the power sockets in the bed. (well, at least until he blows a fuse, or. . . .)
  20. MPG towing a Harley

    Trailer? And all my wasted effort trying to figure out how he was going to keep the Harley balanced on two wheels? 🤔
