  1. Window Tint & traveling across country via I-40 and back via I-10.

    You’ll be passing through both “red” and ”blue“ states. Get rid of bumper stickers. When approached, be nebulous, but respectful, with your answers. Keep ‘em guessing!
  2. RECALLS

    Or………. My truck is a ‘22 Lariat, non-lux, (NO SYNCH). Three years have come and gone. I see the low battery notification occasionally. Even left it for 3 months last summer. NOCO‘d it overnight…..started right up. If and when Ford issues new batteries, will I be getting one?
  3. Potential issue with my 25

    Just for the hell of it, ask the dealer to NOT tell you where the damage is. See if you can find it. If you can’t, THEN have him tell you. A good test of the repair quality.
  4. New 25 % tariff on mavericks on 02/25 [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS; INFRACTIONS GIVEN]

    It’s not important for whom I voted (nor any of us, for that matter). Four years from now, he will have moved on, and someone else will be sitting in the Oval Office. In the meantime……… We should ALL be hoping that he does well for our country. And that his successor will do the same. As...
  5. 2025, hybrid, awd.... in hard packed snow

    So, after you ”showed him buttons and gave brief orientation”, how’d he do?
  6. Funny: Confirmation that Mav owners (one in particular) can be dumb...

    Just be glad that you didn’t try to insert your “key”!
  7. Dealer says they've never heard of Maverick battery problems

    I’d like to know……….. Just how does one “push the dealer” to give an AGM, instead of a conventional lead/acid? Plead? Beg? Put him up against the wall? He has the final say. Seems that there are some dealerships that are amenable, and some that are less so. How does one convince him to do one’s...
  8. Thinking about selling my Maverick

    How much did you pay for it? How much more did you put into it? How tight are you with your nephew? (From ” He’s a good kid” to “I love him dearly”) Make a small profit? Take a small loss? Its intrinsic value is mostly moot when dealing with a relative.
  9. Shaking While accelerating only.

    The three year part of the B-B warranty is coming up for the first group of Mav buyers. We’ll be watching to see what happens to guys like you. So……… Please keep us informed!
  10. Rear window vent visor

    Hi Mabett, Your rear side window vent is an interesting idea. Could you possibly make a rear window vent/visor for the Maverick? Including a version that would work with the roof spoiler? Check out these photos. They stayed on for 30 years. photos of my old Toyota which my Mav replaced.
  11. Temporary cover/fill for tailgate gap?

    After all……… We’re all in this together. Keep your stick on the ice.
  12. How bright are the Maverick headlights?

    My ‘22 Lariat (don’t know about the XL or XLT’s) has 2 low beam lamps lit, adding a third for high beams. Some see the two as a high beam showing. And there are some, rather insecure in themselves, who take it as a personal affront that one would dare shine his highs at them. So they up their...
  13. Audio testing… favorite testing music?

    First couple of minutes of Lou Reed’s long version of “Sweet Jane”.
  14. I got my first dent

    It’s a truck. Dents inside the bed don’t count.
  15. Blinker noise too loud

    As I posted earlier………. With your blinker contributing to your “cover”………. Pull over, get out to check the oil. Expell.
  16. Blinker noise too loud

    Pull over and check your oil.
  17. Parking Lot Commandos: Door Dings

    Pick your spot………. -away from others - next to 4 door vehicles (doors are smaller) - if given a choice, next to passenger side. - next to “classy” cars. Folks are more careful. - away from clunkers. - away from vehicles with vertical door edge guards. They only protect themselves. They may not...
  18. Dial Shifter

    Which knee?
  19. Random high revving

    I was under the impression that “reverse” only works electrically. If the ICE was operating, it was only to charge the battery, or to help provide heat. So my question is…….. Was the high-revving ICE trying to move the truck, requiring unusual brake pedal pressure on your part?
