  1. Calibrated MPG display

    I am only on third tank but its been pretty close to right for me. Maybe its because I have a big kayak on the roof its more accurate?
  2. If your Maverick encounters salty roads in the winter, how is it holding up?

    In used krowns on mine a few weeks ago. Will it work No clue. I also added a plate cover by driver rear tire. its wide open there and the mud flap i used off amazon doesn't cover it all. Easy to see take a look if you have your mav now. The rear driver light is also exposed to salt spray with...
  3. Cavity Wax/Spray for Rust Prevention

    I had Krowns done on mine. No way I would do my own,. I also added the shield by the driver rear tire. if you haven't yet see that thread its here https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/custom-fabricated-cover-filler-panel-for-left-rear-underbody-opening.13177/ it really does need some...
  4. Maverick was in a front end accident

    I know the battery is inside a case with cooling connections. I wonder if that 2 grand price you said is JUST the battery and it has to be installed inside the case? Could be a lot of labor?? Just throwing that out there. I really have no idea.
  5. Shuddering while accelerating.

    Since the drive axle on hybrid does the driving forward and braking with regen braking its a lot of stress on the drive axle. I wonder why some are failing. Bad metal? I sure would like to see the old axle and cv joints. Makes me wonder how long mine will last. Sounds like extended warranty is a...
  6. Smartliner floor mats wearing out

    I bought some too. I hope they last. I had the Ford rubber matts on last vehicle almost 3 years 27K mile Buffalo NY no apparent wear. before that Weather tech 6 years 80K miles looked fine. If mine don't last I bad mouth the heck out of them and get weather tech. All I did ever was wash them ...
  7. Are the Mavericks undercoated

    No it is not. I crawled under my Mav Hybrid and painted the exhaust with high temp paint. Worked great. Then had Krowns rustproofing done. its the oil type stuff done each year. With tax $172. When i first went under I checked it out. it has painted body on under side but just regular color of...
  8. Hate to be the bearer or bad news but the Maverick has for our family, proven to be unreliable in the worst way. No start condition on multiple HEV

    No issue but only a few weeks so far. BUT good to know what and how to fix it . Like to here from OP after fixed if its good now.
  9. What do you wash your Maverick with?

    Dawn??? Oh wax last about 2 months at best. Well every time you washed it assuming its dawn you removed ALL wax on it. Dawn is a know stripper of wax. Many car detail forums talk about its use to remove all old wax. Then they give it a proper coat of ceramic. I used to use an acrylic sealer...
  10. Rust prevention spray coating worth it?

    Just had krowns done on my Hybrid Mav. I forgot the hood was aluminum which they sprayed the underside. i would have told them not to. Will it work i have no clue as its the first time I used this brand,. Buffalo NY so a lot of SALT on the roads. With tax $172. You have it done every year. I did...
  11. What do you wash your Maverick with?

    Use ANY of the name brand car soaps and you will be fine . They are made to not remove either wax or ceramic coatings,. NEVER NEVER use DAWN. Removes all wax or ceramics. Its great if you want to remove old wax then coat with ceramic afterwards. If you use a cermaic then typically the maker...
  12. Shuddering while accelerating.

    Well it looks like they ONLY sell the entire assembly with axle and joints as an entire unit. BUT I HIGHLY doubt the axle itself is the issue. its most likely the joints which have many bearings and machine surfaces and grease. The joints can be removed , I have changed dozens of them in the...
  13. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Went kayaking with 16 foot Valley Avocet on Yakima cross bars with Thule hullivator . Still get about 39 MPG with the wind drag attached.
  14. Shuddering while accelerating.

    You guys keep say axle. I will assume the CV joint went bad. NOT the axle as its a piece of steel with splines. There is an inner CV joint and an outer one. I will assume the outer joint is the one going bad? Did you guys look and see of the rubber boot was leaking grease out of it? Was the...
  15. How to check if wheels have TPMS Sensors?

    Well the Ecosport SE it had sync 3 if that makes any difference is now gone and I now have a maverick hybrid for 2 weeks. I will eventually get wheels tpm's and snows from Tire Rack in another month. I will test them then. All I know was on the 2020 Ecosport i got 4 wheels and snows which Tire...
  16. How to check if wheels have TPMS Sensors?

    Humm. On my last car a 2020 ford Ecosport i bought wheels and snow tire from Tire Rack with tpm. It new with zero training where each tire was. I checked by under inflating a tire to 25 psi and drove a few miles then checked and it new which tire was low. It was Tire Racks own TPM's No idea who...
  17. The Walmart Curse Lives On

    I didn't read the whole thread so this might have been said, Nine times out of ten you parked to close. I always park way out by myself where no one will come out that far. Now MAYBE your walmart is packed BUT the two ones i go to have HUGE parking lots. I can park 100 feet away to closest car...
  18. Hybrid Winter Wheel Questions

    Yes you want to keep the over all diameter of the tire the same. They do this with larger wheels by having less sidewall on tire with larger wheels. Which in my opinion on a truck looks awful. Plus the ride is noticeably worse. Plus larger wheels the tire cost more. The Original equipment 18...
  19. Hybrid Winter Wheel Questions

    WHY choose 18 inch wheels for snows. The tires cost more with zero benefit. Get 17 inchers. Plus don't get wide tires narrow is better in the snow.
