  1. Build Communication from Ford

    Should be Built and then Shipped notifications.
  2. Why new intake/manifold design for 2025 Maverick?

    Well, when those injectors need to be mounted in the intake...
  3. Add me to the blown transmission club

    Yeah, those sandwich an electric motor unit between the engine and transmission. Likewise the F-150 Powerboost and Explorer hybrid aren't (e)CVT. The non-manual transmission Hondas aren't CVTs either; they only have a fixed gear ratio and primarily operate in Series Hybrid mode. If anything...
  4. Interior Dome Light Does Not Turn On When Doors Open

    If the instrument cluster and radio screen also aren't booting up as soon as the door is opened then it's definitely deep sleep.
  5. Using Blind Spot Mirrors w/ BLIS?

    I have a set of these in the lower outer corner: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0925VLFMG/ If you want to get really fancy in theory you could order the non-CP360 mirrors with the integrated mirrors and remove a circle of the silvering on the backside to mount the BLIS LEDs.
  6. Simple B&O upgrade and sub solution.

    Power generation from the DC-DC converter has nothing to do with the status of the ICE running or not. The converter draws from the high-voltage battery and the ICE will start based on the charge level of that.
  7. Where are the 2025 Ecoboosts??

    If they were naturally aspirated vehicles it's because they have less air to produce power, but that lower atmosphere pressure makes knocking less likely so they don't need as high of octane. Forced induction motors are less affected because they usually can build more boost to compensate for...
  8. Can an order be changed?

    Ford chat can't do anything about your order. Refer to the sales manager at the dealership your order is through; they're the ones who usually actually do the ordering.
  9. Ford loophole for giving us the Farm Bureau discount? (Updated)

    It was in part due to dealers not familiar with matching incentives based on Order Date versus Sales date and price protection. It's also possible to generate a certificate for a prior year incentive program if necessary; when generating the certificate select 'I've already purchase the vehicle'...
  10. Can an order be changed?

    Even after the VIN has been issued/build scheduled some changes can be requested by the dealer; mostly things like options packages. The factory needs to approve the order change.
  11. Should I investigate other extended warranties for my incoming 2025 Maverick?

    It's worth noting that the Ford warranty only covers the hybrid drivetrain parts specifically. So other HV components like the A/C compressor aren't covered, and aftermarket warranties usually don't want anything to do with any of the HV parts. Whereas a Ford ESP would.
  12. X plan also for custom orders?

    If you mean the common boilerplate phrase of 'Must take delivery from dealer stock' then that still applies for factory orders. Ford builds it and sells it to the dealer whose property it is until they sell it to you.
  13. Ford loophole for giving us the Farm Bureau discount? (Updated)

    Your certificate should still work since the program was active when you ordered. Just a matter of the dealer selecting incentives at order date in SMART Vincent.
  14. TFL first hands-on with the 2025 Maverick XLT hybrid AWD

    Yeah, those two videos really were really heavy on the fluff. But I guess when you've got to feed however many numbers of channels they have now (6 7 8?!) with content you just ramble at the camera for 20 minutes and ship it.
  15. Over the Manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.

    Capability certainly is also a factor, especially cooling. I recall when TFL did their Ike Test with the 4k it ran on the hotter end. And the Tremor doesn't have much headroom over 2k.
  16. Why there is so much debate.

    Adaptive/matrix headlights have been legal for a few years now.
  17. Is the Maverick’s Telematics Data Reported to Law Enforcement?

    Y'know cops have this thing called 'radar'
  18. Experiences with Major Repairs OR Extended Warranty

    The main point is it would be a pretty dubious switch to declare the eCVT a hybrid unique drivetrain component covered under one warranty, but not a hybrid unique drivetrain component by the ESP where it isn't explicitly excluded. Was 'the woman on the phone' just a customer service rep, or...
  19. 2025 Maverick front Fascia bumper cover is a 2 piece design easier install of a Base Plate ?

    That's three pieces, but not in the way you highlighted. The top painted part, the black lower, and the silver insert piece.
