  1. 6k fantastic truck

    Actually, I am pretty conservative with my driving. My RAV4 hybrid gets low to mid 40s, but the Mav just doesn't. It may be the addition of AWD and 4k towing package. Gas hasn't seemed to make any difference.
  2. 6k fantastic truck

    I doubt I will ever get 45 under any conditions, unless its all downhill. I hit 40 1 time in general driving. But, I am okay with it.
  3. Filling gas tank

    RTFM? NO! Ford didn't want me to read it or they would have given me one instead of hiding it in the infotainment system or having me search online for it! I usually sit down and skim through one after getting a new vehicle, but I am not doing that sitting in my truck or reading on my phone...
  4. Beaded Seat Covers on Lariat

    I do miss my leather seats! It's sucks that there wasn't an option on the Mav!
  5. Beaded Seat Covers on Lariat

    Do you mean my pleather seats aren't real pleather? 😱
  6. 2 years, likes and dislikes (not a review)

    No auto dimming mirrors and the seatbelt warning staying on for 2 minutes after I put my belt on are my gripes.
  7. Fuel pump shuts off while pumping gas.

    I had this happen once when I was on a trip. I got about 3 or so gallons and gave up. It was fine on the next stop, so I am pretty sure it was the pump. Try filling up at a different place.
  8. Full pallet of solar panels 1,056 lbs

    We used to load an old 1/2 ton pickup with 10 16 gallon kegs of beer and drive on the highway 7 or 8 miles to a nightclub and unload them. The tire were bulging and about to blow. The rear bumper was almost dragging the ground and the truck was walking all over the road. Any number of things...
  9. MPG towing a Harley

    I haven't pulled anything with mine, yet, and only took one long road trip with it. Mileage was about 33 mpg. I would expect you would lose another 5 mpg from the weight. I would offer to ride it for you, but my back just can't handle it anymore. I got rid of my Fatboy 13 years ago, but I still...
  10. Full pallet of solar panels 1,056 lbs

    That should keep your 12v charged!
  11. Damaged Front Bumper Wiring Harness 25’ XLT

    Use a multimeter and check the black wires to see if they are ground. If so, it won't matter which one goes where.
  12. Wife upstages me

    Well than, dont read this post. I am about to loose it laughing at them.
  13. Sunroofs

    My 25 Lariat has one and I haven't had any leaks. I rarely use it, but my wife does. I use the rear slider for my dog in good weather. He sticks his face out and watches cars and enjoys the smells.
  14. Locked key in Mav

    My grandfather used to say this! If I had locked my key in, I would have used the app to unlock it. I know, Ford tracks everything I do. I sold my soul for convenience!
  15. Trust Your Mav to The Dealer?

    My dealer lives here. His father owned the business and worked there. His mother was there, too. It is a family business and they own the Toyota dealership, too. I have been taking my RAV there for service since I got it and have no complaints. I even got a new tire there, because they were...
  16. Installing Dimming mirror - lost my darn mirror mount screw

    You will find it after you buy a new one and finish the job! 😎
  17. Trust Your Mav to The Dealer?

    I never rotated my own tires. I used to do oil changes, plugs, points, timing, carb rebuild, but now I don't do any of it. I don't enjoy it anymore and I got rid of my jack stands. My wife has freaked out if I crawl under anything since her grandfather had a car fall on him.
  18. 2025 Charging pad

    It is slow, but if you are driving why would you care? It doesn't get that hot. The hottest phone I ever had was in my pocket while it was searching for a cell tower. I charge my phone every night and haven't drained one since the 90s, so the charger in my truck is like gravy on a biscuit, nice...
  19. Best Vehicle Colors for Resale - Clark Howard.

    When I look for a new vehicle and the salesman asks what color I always say anything but white. Growing up, a lot of people had white vehicles that were former company cars. Everyone worked in the oilfield and they would replace them by 50k miles and sell them to employees. No white for me...
  20. Best use for my Ford points?

    I got the passenger side tool box, but the installation was a pain. I still need to drill out two holes to mount it correctly. I am not sure if it is because of the spray in bed or if the holes are justbtoo small. The instructions are a joke. Maybe take a pass on this?
