Well unfortunately my Maverick has moved on to greener pastures after colliding with Bambi doing 55mph. So my new truck is gone and I have moved up in size to a 2022 F150 4x4 with the 3.3 V6. I will miss my little Maverick, but I do really love my new ride. I’ll still be lurking around these...
Well I am now in the club of damaged Maverick’s unfortunately. I was driving on a rural highway last night and collided with a deer. The speed limit was 60mph and the deer jumped out about 50ft in front of me before meeting the front end of my truck. They really do just stand there and stare at...
Does anyone know which dealerships in Western Wa offer a loaner vehicle. Bickford Ford has loaners and no-cost rentals (whichever is available at time of service), however I was wanting to use a different dealership due to a previous repair that went south. Truck is all mended now, but I want to...
I’ve attached a copy of the oil analysis that I had done on my truck. I had the trans serviced at 25k miles since I have 1k-1.2k pounds of payload that I haul everyday (self employed, bought this as my work truck). The owners manual says to service at 30k miles for severe duty cycle so I was a...
I figured I would share some thoughts on dealing with Ford Corporate in regards to ongoing issues with my Mav. Unfortunately other than wasting a bit of my time, they really weren’t able to resolve any issues. I was contacted by them after making a post regarding some interior rattles and a...
I went to wire in an extra 12v cigarette lighter power socket using the handy pigtail in the truck bed and neither side has power going to it. I checked the fuse, and the owners manual and all seems well (if I recall it was fuse 84 under the hood). I don’t want to make a special trip to the...
Quite the unique noise cropped up today. It sounds like keys rattling on a dinner plate underneath the center console/shifter area. Now I’m assuming they aren’t actually keys rattling under there, unless there’s an employee at Hermosillo that’s lost their mind looking for them. I’m really...
Well unfortunately I’ve encountered my first round of repairs needed on the Mav. Mine is a 2.0 EB AWD XLT with Lux package. The drivers seat felt a little loose so the seat frame was replaced, as well as a rear axle replacement (not done yet, but diagnosed due to time constraints). My biggest...
Just called my dealership and they can order the tonneau covers now and they will take 7-10 days to arrive. I ordered a hard roll-up cover from them today since the one I ordered from a different aftermarket supplier hasn’t worked out. So anyone worried about them not arriving before your...
Called my dealership today as my truck was scheduled to be built this week (XLT AWD Ecoboost) and received confirmation that my truck has been built and was waiting to be loaded on the railcar. They also informed me that my truck was scheduled to arrive at the dealership on Oct 4th, ironically...
I just purchased a tri-fold hard tonneau cover for my Maverick. For those waiting on the factory cover, they are just starting to show up on the aftermarket, the delivery date for my tonneau cover is before my truck since mine isn’t scheduled yet (fingers crossed for this week). The factory...
I currently use an 06 Ford E-250 van for my work vehicle and it gets about 11-13mpg with the 5.4 Triton. I’m self employed and average about 50k miles per year, which means I currently fill the gas tank every day (36 gallon tank) and do oil changes every 2 weeks. I didn’t purchase the van new...
