I got some good news from Ford today. I did not update this post, but I ended up opening a case with Ford customer care. First contact via email a couple days ago. First call, yesterday. Today… my part will be delivered Monday. Funny how that works. That’s sarcastic, I do appreciate them jumping...

@Ford, if you see this, help!!! TLDR: Mavericks have zero parts availability and it is super-frustrating! First week of June this year, I entered my truck into the Carlisle Ford Nationals with the MTC, got to meet quite a few nice folks and see lots of Fords. On my way home (about 180...

No rubbing… with the caveat that the only off-road driving I do is in my driveway lol. Hand calculated MPG is about 10% worse on the highway. Speedo is off about 5%. So when the speedometer says I’m driving 60, I’m actually going 63.

I went a little wider but not as tall: 255/65R17

Wheels are stock FX4, tires are BFG KO2 255/65R17.

Very nice! I was quoted $1200. Seems to really vary by region and/or vendor.

When we pulled into the dealer and saw the truck, the wife accused me of ordering black instead of blue like I told her. 😁

Yes sir, hence the day and a half it took me to get it all done. I’m no pro lol.

If I was a Ford engineer, you best bet I’d be writing my name out with those seat heater coils. Or maybe a smiley face. Or both. Only to never be seen by anyone except clever dudes with thermal cameras 😁

Now THAT is one good looking shiny vehicle right there.

BFG KO2s... 255/65R17. And I always get asked so will answer now... yes they fit with no lift, and they do not rub. :)

The touchless carwash near my house has a "ceramic" spray that is part of the deluxe wash... What actually is in it is anybody's guess, but It has never clouded my windows.... and does seem to help a bit with keeping the dust off the truck. Or that could just be me justifying in my head...

I used Adams UV.

Ceramic coated the Mav over the weekend.... came out really nice, but man, a lot of work. Did it myself. It is not an easy job, took a day and a half more or less…. 2 coats. To do it right, the prep is kinda brutal, props for dudes that do work like that for a living. But I saved about a grand...

That’ll buff out. No problem. 😁

I have an XLT EB. I liked the seat comfort when I test drove one way back when. After mine came this year, I decided to get seat covers for protection, not comfort. Then before I bought some I was lucky enough to win a set in Carlisle at the Ford show… and I can’t say enough good things about...

I had mine done with fluid film, because it supposedly creeps into corners. Had a complete application including all the cavities like inside the rocker panels. I had to buy the clips for my guy, he didn’t have them. Took him about all day…takes time to remove all the splash guards and fx4 skid...

I also noticed that the screws can be over-tightened, which causes the front of the light assembly to pop out of the little thing that holds the assembly in place. Loosened those up a bit and haven't had any trouble since.

I have the same code. Been driving with the cel on for quite a while now, months. Dealer says part is back ordered.
