  1. Wheels 17" vs 19"

    Did they swap the wheel/tire combo between the trucks and retest? One trip for mpg comparison? Meh, not the best "test". 17s seem to perform as good as 19", accelerate faster, will save gas in town (weight savings) AND cost cheaper. IMO look better too. 17 > 19 (y)
  2. Why are car companies dropping Apple CarPlay?

    So... if oil company execs give lots of money to someone/something and then the "EV agenda" goes away... how does that fit in to your views?
  3. Tire rotation question.

    Now do brake fluid! Is that 16 years fresh also? (I don't follow the brake fluid needs flushing every 2 year dogma, but I did replace trailer tires that had fine tread but were manu'd in 2016 and 2019 - if they were both 2019, I'd have waited)
  4. Changing rotors

    E-brake slides! ;)
  5. 2024 vs 2025 front license bracket

    Only good could happen.
  6. Changing rotors

    You mean calipers? (not a brake pun)
  7. Changing rotors

    Nah, I've done "pad slaps" and never had issues. If your rotors are good/within spec, bed the new pads in with repeated braking and you're fine.
  8. Changing rotors

    That's a lot of brake wear in less than 80k miles!!! Does salt affect it or just driving style?
  9. Stock speaker replacement recommendation please.

    I got Focal somethings that were half off - $70. Worth it for that price. BF sales coming up... wait for a deal
  10. Contemplating a front passenger seat delete

    To avoid the airbag light after removing 2nd row seats in Sienna hybrids, you can buy a plug in resister that someone sells for $35/ea or a 5 cent resister that you have to push in and tape and hope it holds. Might be worth trying the resister approach on the Mav. Heck I could mail you a couple...
  11. Is the honeymoon over ?

    Tremor with no off-road use. Previous thread about trading it for a Ranger Raptor. You know what rides plush and smooth around town? A non-truck/SUV Lexus. Wrong tool for the job, IMO.
  12. Car locked me out with keys inside

    Please don't reply to the AI BOT. Report them instead.
  13. Great deal on Ford Escape plug in hybrid. Wish mav was plug in

    Sweet deal. Double check with state, county, city and utility for any rebates. Fed tax credit went away, but there may be something else you can grab!
  14. Wife Refuses To Drive The Truck

    The Mav has a pretty bad turning radius. 40' vs 35' for a Crosstrek Length: 200" vs 176.4 Although the Mav is a small-truck, I don't think it drives small in town / parking lots.
  15. Cali shifting to 15% ethanol in gas

    And I'm glad CARB exists and has created standards that have lowered emissions all throughout the nation.
  16. Wife Refuses To Drive The Truck

    ...but what did you do with all your money and free time?!?
  17. DIYs and HACKs for your Maverick

    Bronco Sport wheels meet OP's criteria. And the Escape HVAC I'm going to install to get my temp display on the knob. ACC - Adaptive Cruise Control was a big DIY hack job :)
