Ford did a great job with Maverick styling. From a distance it looks like an F-150.

Agree for the most part flawless. Two minor complaints on my 2024. One was the windshield rattle in below freezing temps. Fixed with some weather-stripping. Second is the recalled engine block heater.

No need to wait, unless the tires are frozen to the ground. If the tires are frozen to the ground, the windows likely need scraping and that will take longer than the engine needs to warm up.

If able to shift some trailer weight from front to back, that could bring the tongue weight in line. Be careful not to shift too much, better to be a little heavy on the front than light. In any case keep the tow speed a reasonable 55-60 mph

Would have not ordered the engine block heater. Recalled and no parts available. Could have saved $100.

Ditto. Same length of time, mpg. I'm only at 7k and usually use 88 fuel.

Very common problem for Toyota frames in the rust belt. Toyota should only make unibody. Those hold up well for them.

Slow down is excellent advice. Trailer tires are not designed for high speed. If I had a dollar for every blown trailer tire I've seen on the highways over the years, I could buy another Maverick.

Bring them to the corn belt. Deer up here are well fed.

Don't know why they would need a law to prevent access. Manufacturer could just encrypt the data and lock it down. Unless their data security team is incompetent. Oh wait, I just answered my own question :ROFLMAO:

Look at a Chevy Equinox/GMC Terrain. My wife switched to the Terrain after my daughter claimed the Escape. She said GM and Ford are interchangeable.

Yes, adult daughters have traveled with myself & wife. However on longer trips we prefer our 2017 GMC Terrain which has substantially more room in the back seat and the seat back reclines.

XL stock wheels are 17" steel. Anything different is not original.

7k on my 2024 EB. Averaging 29.5 MPG. Mix of city, country and freeway. Always run 10% ethanol 87 or 15% ethanol 88 octane.

After reading comments I think the answer is: SIBL, DIBL, bed mat, bed rug, DIY cargo tray layered in that order. Also a hard cover over a soft cover for good measure. ;)

I never heard of having to replace brakes due to lack of use. Who diagnosed this?

My first car was a 350 Nova custom. Majority of the weight is on the front axel. It was good for putting on a show smoking the tires or whipping donuts. Handling was horrible. Keeping it out of the ditches on anything but perfect dry pavement took a lot of effort. EB Maverick has more muscle...

Good to know in winter Ecoboost gets about the same MPG as Hybrid. I was getting 30MPG yesterday in the cities.

My CG looks the same. No worries, winter will be over in 4-5 months.

Reminds me of the old DMI hitches we used to use for pulling Ag wagons. Also deters tailgaters. ;)
