I just had my cracked XLT windshield replaced with the Lariat standard acoustic laminate windshield. I have a 56 mile commute home this evening. I will report back with my observations,

I should have taken better before and after pictures. It is the Mabbett shield wraped in aluminum heat shielding. Definitely not frail as I beat it into shape with the orange hammers. Not frail but still easy to form. 100% I did it just for looks. I was going for the look of the driveshaft...

Mabbett shield + Embossed aluminum heat shield + 2 hours labor = a more OEM look, plus exhaust tip heat blocking, plus corrosion protection?

It less about you being obnoxious and more about me still being slightly bitter at Ford for making my '24 Maverick the "old" Maverick lol.

I can't say you are wrong but the scoop is definitely added to cool the PTU. The correction was given in good faith. A lot of people, including myself, rely on this board for accurate info. I have been wrong before and will be again. My first point was maybe a little petty. I am a 2024 owner...

2. The Tremor has a water cooled PTU and no scoop in it's skid plate but you are entitled to your opinion.

1. not a skid plate. 2. Air duct is to cool the PTU not the turbo. The turbo is water cooled. 3.welcome to the club.

My experience with extended warranties, road hazard packages, screen replacement insurance, etc. I buy it: the product I bought it for is trouble free for the entire time I own it. I don't buy it: unrepairable flat, smashed screen, etc. within a month from purchase. I bought a 100k extended...

The gloss black hood with the matte black hood protector looks great. Good choice.

Red Blade. Yes I know license plate is showing. Come at me bro.

Checking back in. PUTCO FTW! I also installed the tailgate Red Blade. No more Lariat lighting envy!

I just finished installing Putco Virtual Blades on my 2024 XLT FX4. The work perfectly with the old style grille bar. Not sure how they would look on a 2025 front end. I installed the 15” pair with minor modifications to the grille bar.

Laptop OBDII adapter w/ Forscan. Don't waste your money on anything else.

That is the one I used, as well. It had very negative reviews. I checked it over pretty thourghly and everything looked good. So far it is working perfectly with a Putco light. For the price you can not beat it, in my opinion. Ford/Motorcraft branded pigtail connectors are stupid expensive. Even...

Sell it. Buy a Santa Cruz. No gaps anywhere.

Checking back in. I just finished installing the Putco 48” Blade using the OPT7 harness as a plug and play option. Everything is working 100% with no modifications to the harness or the Blade. I decided to skip the ACC 12v feed to the Blade driver for now. Wired direct to the taillights. I took...

My experience with the 8F35 and the Ford transmission shift strategy is that is anything but smooth. I have tried to adjust my throttle management habits to suit the vehicle. For example, I don't rest my foot on the gas when cruising at low speed due to the constant engine lugging. I am either...

Looking at your previous pictures that really hurts. My condolences.
