When I had my shop, we used to install hitch-mounted snow plows on unibody vehicles. I used to tell these customers the same thing - don't let the storm get more than 2-3" ahead of you and don't try to compact snow stacks with the vehicle.
The problem with the Maverick is more about the...
It's all a matter of perspective, I guess. Yes, there are complaints and sometimes the nature of them is truly picayune. But I'm also a MINI Cooper owner and those groups are far worse.
Imagine someone coming here all brimming with excitement because they're in the process of buying a...
Did you check with Gervais Ford in Ayer, MA.? They are an MSRP, no-pressure, no mandatory add-ons dealer. I bought my 2022 XLT EB AWD Lux there off the lot as a refused order. There was no ADM, just straight MSRP plus standard fees.
Yes, the finance guy pitched extras but it was clear that...
I previously owned a truck and offroad shop that also installed what we sold (we were the only ones in the area that offered installation).
I remember one customer coming in for a Putco product, then deciding he could get it cheaper online. A couple of weeks later, he came back with the...
Took delivery of a refused order 10/21/21. XLT Lux AWD and no problems whatsoever after 11K+ miles. I just had to deal with the fuel tank and side curtain airbag recalls but both went smoothly.
I'm reaching waaaayyy back to my days as a component-level electronics tech, but here's a couple of things worth considering. The speakers would not continue producing sound unless something was driving them and they are on switched power as far as I know.
The smell of burning and the presence...
From the previous posts, it appears your state allows diminished value claims. I think the other consideration is whether it's worth it or not.
To judge that, use the normal sites for establishing vehicle value and run your vehicle through twice, once with no reported damage and once with...
It looks like Nationwide Recycling in Lancaster has a set. They're priced at $199.00 per wheel, but I think that includes the tires. You can look them up on car-part.com.
My 2022 EB AWD is a fairly early build. I took delivery 10/21/21.
The only issues I've had were the recalls for the fuel tank (since I have the SIBL) and side curtain airbags, both of which got taken care of without much fuss by my local dealer. So my experience has been good thus far (11K+...
Thanks for those videos. I would have liked to use one of those T-connectors for my dash cam but they aren't compatible with the Maverick wiring from what I can see there.
This prompts a question I've had. There is a power adapter cable available for dash cams, basically using a T-connector from the plug on the back of the mirror. However, I checked the mirror in my 2022 XLT Lux and there is no plug there.
So, are these mirror upgrades only applicable to Lariat...
We ran power from the battery primarily because we didn't think about using the 12V in the bed. I think I prefer it that way anyway, since I can have the light bar augmenting the hazards even if the ignition is turned off.
You can do the SIBL aftermarket, so consider that a wash. You don't care about the moonroof, so leave that out of the decision. That basically brings you to one available now with a feature you can't get on the other two but that will have clear value in your neck of the woods. The tradeoff is...
It has happened now. If you haven't seen it yet, there is a post here about a multicar accident triggered by a non-Maverick that drove one Maverick into another. One Maverick driver was injured and hospitalized and her dog was killed by the airbag. The other Maverick driver was less seriously...
Whatever you choose, make sure it is not silicone based. That will actually damage the cover over time. I typically use Surf City Garage Back to Black and Black Max on my vehicles as well as Aerospace 303. The SCG products are applied rather than spray.
