  1. Missing the CD Player. How to copy & convert songs from CD to flash drive for playing in Maverick

    I agree with the OP. I tend to want to use actual CD's when driving as opposed to my phone/tablet/etc. I bought a CD player for around $10 off Amazon a year or so ago. USB plug in. For some reason (mostly because I'm old) I have trouble keeping my tablet connected via Bluetooth.
  2. Anyone ever have issues getting warranty service at dealers they didn't buy from?

    While not specific to the Maverick, my wife has a 2018 Lincoln MKX. We bought it at a dealer about an hour away from us. Bought at the end of the model year. I have a local mechanic that does most of my work. MKX has had some A/C fan problems. Unit was replaced under warranty twice by a...
  3. Are Canadians going to stop vacationing in Florida?

    So I've lived in Florida since 1982. For the last 4 years, I've had an annual pass to Disney World. In that time, attendence at the Mouse House seems to have gone crazy. I live outside of Tampa, and if I'm lucky, it only takes 2 hours on I-4 to get there. It's generally packed. So at least...
  4. Taking it easy

    I'm getting about 27 on my 2023. I've got 37k miles on it. The 27 is based on the fuel economy indicator. About 2/3 of my driving is local. I've taken 2 trips of about 4k miles each. I'm in Florida, so most of my local driving is flat.
  5. Be Honest - have you ever driven with passengers in the rear seats?

    When I bought my Mav, I really wanted a Ranger with the extended cab (jump seats). I had one years ago. I liked the idea of having an place to put stuff inside the cab where it could be locked. If I had to take a couple people, the jump seats were OK as long as you weren't going too far...
  6. Store key fob in faraday bag to prevent theft?

    I have keyless entry, but not remote start. So, I put my "spare" fob in a Faraday bag and put it under the back seat. If I would lose the fob I'm carrying, I can use the keypad to get in and get the other fob.
  7. State of the used Maverick market - anybody out there keeping track?

    I agree with Kevink. I've never leased a vehicle in my life (and I'm 69). In my case I needed a vehicle relatively quick. I was going to retire in the next couple months, so I really didn't want to get another big monthly bill. I really didn't want a stripped down model, so found a 23...
  8. Senior citizen Maverick owners thread

    I'm 69. Had a Silverado for years. I was a Project Manager for a large general contractor, so I showed up on jobsites a lot. Didn't really haul anything that I needed a p/u for, but that's what contractors drove. After I retired, started looking around. Didn't want a big truck again...
  9. Must have a rare ecoboost truck

    I've got a 23 Eco Lariat. Just over 36k miles. The only issue I had is with the glasses drop down compartment (which I don't care about).
  10. Ford Unveils New Dealership Design and Sales & Service Experience

    When I got my Maverick, I needed a vehicle now due to an accident. Have mostly always bought Fords because my FIL was a Ford Union employee, so we got (I think) A Plan pricing. Since he's gone, can't get it anymore. Anyway, go to local Ford dealer. Not totally impressed with what they had on...
  11. Small 4th July project.... Installed Power Tailgate Lock for 2025 XL.

    The locking tailgate with a hard bed cover was a key factor in deciding on a Maverick. 2023 Lariat.
  12. Is the Ford Maverick Lariat Worth $40k?

    Quote: "I've got a mantra that's served me well : If you want something better, and can afford it and can justify it (within reason), then just get it. If you buy the cheap version, the features you wanted but didn't get will still bug you a long LONG time after you've forgotten the price...
  13. Ford App Dead

    Also remember I think it was last Monday, there was a big internet outage due to a bug in Amazon Web Services. There are still some websites that aren't working right yet because of it.
  14. Is the Ford Maverick Lariat Worth $40k?

    I paid about $41 for a 2023 Lariat new. 4k tow. AWD. Eco. Hard bed cover. I wanted something that was going to be my daily driver as I had just retired. Did I care about the sliding rear window? Not initially, but it has come in handy. I live in Florida. Don't know that I've ever used...
  15. Maverick owners demographics - just curious

    I'm 68. Bought my Maverick 2 years ago. I had a Silverado but after 150k miles, decided to change. I bought an Explorer that I really liked, but my daughter was in an accident that totaled her car. She couldn't afford another one, I gave her the Explorer. What I wanted was a Ranger. I had...
  16. Haven't needed warranty over 36K miles

    So I just turned over 36,000 miles turning into my subdivision last night. 2023 Lariet Eco. Had basically 0 problems. I've owned mostly Fords for 40ish years. My FIL was a tool and die maker, so we got really good deals. I did buy my Mav from CarMax with 3k miles. I only went to a local...
  17. Can you make a portable CD player work in a 25 Maverick

    I have always liked to listen to audio BOOKS while driving. My local public library still has a decent selection of them on CD's. And yes, they also have ones to download. With a book, it's typically one and done.
