  1. Ford files patent for "snitching"...?

    If you're going to the hospital, then who cares about the ticket - you obviously had something more important to deal with. There could be an administrative review to clear it up - like a parking ticket that shouldn't have been given. If a kid was routinely speeding - wouldn't you rather know...
  2. Ford files patent for "snitching"...?

    So which is - do you want "law and order" with strict enforcement of laws, or not? Or do you want to only enforce certain laws against other people? With all the a-hole drivers I see, I'd be happy for a crowdsourced way of enforcement. If multiple people's dashcams show someone driving...
  3. How to check if wheels have TPMS Sensors?

    I bought mine off eBay with a "made in united kingdom" on the plastic packaging - hoping that would be more likely to be genuine vs Chinese one. Yeah, if I would have known, I'd have paid to swap my OEM sensors out of my steelies before selling them. Oh well.
  4. How to check if wheels have TPMS Sensors?

    OK. No dice here. I tried the Motorcraft (possibly knockoff) TPMS19 tool. Then the ring magnets. Neither works - so that leads me to believe the Bronco Sport take-offs I bought did not come with TPMS as the seller stated. If anyone wants to buy the magnets and tool off me, $10 and I'll ship...
  5. Are you impressed with your Hybrid's power?

    0-60 in the mid 7's is plenty fast for any non-sports car vehicle. The fact that it gets 40+ mpg in the practical packaging is what really seals the deal. At some point, speed/power is just a ____ measuring contest. There is always someone faster (really just costs money) - and what's the...
  6. Android Auto question

    I hit the audio button on my dash to "exit". Still takes another button or two to get to radio though. Poor design for sure. No pause on steering wheel. No mode cycle. On Toyota you can use mode to cycle radio/xm/AA and hold for pause. My one tip I've found - tap power button to pause AA...
  7. Maverick Spotted on CNN.COM

    Right. Like that photo didn't happen. It was made up by "The Left" to show impacts of "Climate Change". palate cleanser:
  8. Fuel smell in oil (EcoBoost Maverick)

    Seriously. Trolling? 2025 AWD + 4k tow AND HYBRID Battery and all hybrid components have a LONG warranty. Transmission is dead simple and reliable. I assume that any increase in maintenance / repair costs will be more than covered by fuel savings over the years. No fuel smell in the oil and...
  9. Buyer's remorse on FWD Hybrids?

    What is so great about sync 4? I use android auto. Also new, big screen means no physical HVAC - huge step backwards as a "feature".
  10. No FWD Lariat for 2025 makes me go looking for a different new truck

    Your truck is two years old and you don't need to replace it. Just keep it. Non-problem, solved.
  11. Another one down

    Time to order AWD hybrid.
  12. Buyer's remorse on FWD Hybrids?

    Price is way up vs my "23. MPG down also. Not worth the extra cost to me. I can afford it, but I wanted a cheap vehicle.
  13. Where is the 2025 Maverick info?

    and into the $30k range with state/local/utility incentives - wow!
  14. Rear ended Maverick hit so badly it flips.

    Requiring all vehicles to have PCA (Pre-Collision Assist) will help avoid accidents like this. Or using radar / ACC. Reverse cameras were a luxury car item, then became mostly standard, then became required by DOT. We'll get there, but old cars and dumb drivers will still be around.
  15. Introducing the Upgraded Mabett Windshield Sun Shade for Ford Maverick! Enjoy Exclusive 25% Discount!

    Great design. Just like the one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C9LXPCLB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 here that I bought for $20.85 back in November last year. Con confirm good quality and fit. Thick for a folding one, in a good way. Easy to use and store, unlike the...
  16. Stop/Start

    It likely is.
  17. TPMS Relearn / Reset?

    My truck never picked them up - but that could also mean that I bought them without sensors. Haven't wanted to pay to address that yet. Maybe at my first oil change, if I take it to the dealer to use my remaining points and ask them to see (but wouldn't pay for them install new OEMs - that'd be...
  18. Tailgate replacement: XL / XLT on a Lariat?

    ... and the power lock - which can easily be swapped over.
  19. how long did you wait for a Maverick Hybrid

    Between 0 and infinity. Also, why is this still a thing in mid-2024? Dealers have non-marked up hybrids in stock now.
