    On the right has 4k tow.
  2. Transmission in too high gear at 45 - 55 mph

    Here is post from last year about this issue. Option are to use another mode as others have suggested, reset the PCM, or "teach" the transmission by accelerating to force a downshift before it starts to lug...
  3. When will Maverick hit a million sold ???

    Sales seem to be settling at about 11K per month. That puts the 1 million target at Q4 2029. Increase production capacity seems unlikely since supply and demand have equalized. Expect demand will soften slightly and 2030 is more likely. "prediction is hard especially about the future" Niels Bohr
  4. Oil Change Notification

    I received the oil change notification at 3,000 miles. It was exactly 12 months after the last oil change. Seems like there is a timer on the notification in addition to mileage.
  5. Why would I want to get a new Maverick?

    Order banks for '27 will open in about 9 months. OP is taking plenty of time for this decision.

    Park it next to this guy. And leave it parked until the snow melts.

    Listed cons, not great in snow: https://thetirereviews.com/goodyear-wrangler-territory-ht-review/
  9. Deer meet truck :(

    With that little damage the deer likely got away.
  10. DIYs and HACKs for your Maverick

    I didn't find an option I liked for a camera mount, so I created my own. Started with the Mabett dash tray. https://www.amazon.com/Mabett-Dashboard-Organizer-Maverick-Accessories/dp/B0C5LY63KH Built up from there with a scroll saw and wood scraps. Two binder clips hold it all together and makes...
  11. Traded the Maverick in today for a 2026 Toyota Camry

    Summary: Want a car, then don't buy a truck.
  12. Trailering 1,000 miles advice needed.

    For 2 MPG, I'd use the F-150. Might seem like overkill in normal circumstances, but having the heft of the F-150 in case of an emergency would be my preference. I've driven Chicago often, and the drivers are crazy. The mass of the F-150 will get more respect.
  13. Coming from car - will I miss trunk?

    All of the above... and back seat bottom flips up for expanded capacity. Advantage over putting stuff on the seat is skipping the seat belt warnings.
  14. deer guard for front of 2022 xl 2.0 awd

    Just never swerve to avoid a critter. Outcome is usually worse than hitting it. https://www.radiooklahomanews.com/post/minco-bus-crash-caused-by-deer-collision-7-injured-including-coach-and-students
  15. Honda Rescue

    On Thursday volunteering with a group at FMSC, friends early 2000's CRV had a flat when we finished the shift. His spare was rusted tight, so we tossed the flat in the back of my Maverick and headed to the nearest tire shop. They pulled out the offending screw and patched it. We had the tire...

  17. Tire Advice, Please!

    245 is the largest I've read about without rub or lift. 1/2" diameter difference from 235 which is only 1/4" radius.
  18. Maverick XL High Idle At Startup?

    Not just modern cars. All internal combustion needs a richer fuel to air ratio at startup. Before electronic fuel injection, there was auto choke on the carburetor. Before that was a manual choke. Before that, the horse needed some extra oats on cold mornings. :)
  19. Durability Poll - Mileage & Repairs/Maintenance Check On Your Maverick

    '24 with 5K and no repairs. At 300 miles replaced the Continentals with Falken Wildpeak AT3
  20. Oil life monitor?

    Just for fun asked Chatgpt about oil life. It recommended 3,000 -10,000 miles. Sometimes AI is wise. :ROFLMAO:
