I've got this bookmarked for the future whenever my factory AGM needs replaced. Thanks for the information!

The only thing better than a dashcam is TWO dashcams, lots of 2-channel options out there these days. You could have caught him coming and going in HD :)

The head restraint design spec that another forumer posted (Phimosis) shows the seat leaned pretty far back and the body in the seat had their head and shoulders tilted forward (i.e. slouching). If that's your posture, the headrests work great. If you sit upright and don't slouch much the head...

Connect the phone with a USB cable to one of the front USB ports near the 12v power port if you don't have wireless android auto. Follow any prompts to start android auto/carplay. Switching Android Auto™ On and Off - Ford Manual (HTML)

To prevent flat spots from forming on the tires while sitting for potentially long periods. The dealer is supposed to deflate them to recommended pressure.

Great choice ;) Personally, I think the CC2's look great on the Maverick. AWD + AW/SSS/M+S is a killer combo that will get you wherever you're going.

Can and should are different notions here. Sidewall damage is much more likely to compromise the structure of the tire leading to a blow-out. If it's a true emergency, sure... plug the sidewall and limp to the nearest shop at 20mph for a tire replacement. Tread plugs can last the life of the...

It seems to me that using auto hold keeps it "loose" without much brake press required to disengage. When I'm in a Ford vehicle that hasn't had it enabled it seems like it takes significantly more pressure to disengage once activated.

In regards to the OP, I don't think he actually has the technical expertise to get a salvage vehicle on the road given that he had to ask if his frame was bent. He should be stripping the vehicle down to the frame and doing a hand inspection of everything, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't know...

He's got work to do AFTER he rebuilds it, but he can get liability insurance. I'd wager someone who's trying to get a wrecked car on the road to save a buck wasn't going to put comprehensive on it regardless. https://www.progressive.com/answers/insurance-salvage-title-car/ To me, the headache...

You bought a vehicle that had collision damage hoping that it would be an easy fix that someone had overlooked. That wasn't the case, so your options are to cut your losses and buy a not wrecked used vehicle or to invest in the repair. Hopefully this was an absolutely loaded 2025 Hybrid Lariat...

Per wikipedia: The US Environmental Protection Agency offers gas mileage rating incentives to car manufacturers who ensure their auto stop-start systems default to the "on" position[citation needed]. If the system is "non-latching" (i.e., it does not stay off after the car is switched off), the...

Hybrids have a 12v battery on the other side, so sub boxes that fit underseat tend to negate much of the utility of that.

Diving in the manuals... https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/vdirsnet/OwnerManual/Home/Content?countryCode=USA&languageCode=EN&Uid=G2306730&ProcUid=G2311079&div=f&variantid=10113&vFilteringEnabled=False&userMarket=usa&buildtype=web...

There should be prop rods on the side that unclip and go in to hold the cover up, you can lock them in place with that. Put the prop rod in and unscrew, slid down on top, and screw it tight so it doesn't move.

There is no downside to ABS worth mentioning... in certain edge cases locking up the wheels stops you slightly faster... but you also have no steering (and flat spots on your tires 😆). I have a carb'd vehicle without ABS btw... fuel injection and ABS would be big upgrades. TC, ESC, A-S/S, Lane...

You can try adjusting the clamps that hold the cover to the bed near the areas you're getting water in. Look for any area of the cover seals not sitting flush and take a heat gun or hair dryer and a roller and see if you can flatten them out. Water will still come in around the tailgate unless...

You can try resetting the system and see if that helps, turn the vehicle on and hold down the audio power button and the seek right button until the display resets and reboots...
