Since I had to replace the OEM flooded battery with an AGM I'm more interested in what's going on electrically with the Maverick, and thinking that I should install a voltage meter (or ammeter) but unsure what's the best route to go. Any recommendations? TIA

Every week for the past two months, I get an "URGENT! Reply immediately!" letter from Ford's warranty division, insisting that I call or click or scan the QR code to purchase their extended warranty 'before it's too late' ... and that's how you can tell what a huge money-maker extended...

It's winter in Michigan and Steve Trucklet needs a good wash, but I'm concerned about damage to the added exterior parts (i.e.stone deflector and mudguards) so I thought I'd ask: which car wash brand gets your vote?

I had to jump the 12v battery last week and couldn't do it via the power points under the hood, so I went to the battery posts and got the truck started, and it got me thinking: do my power points actually function? My battery tender showed no connection but it needs a minimum amount of charge...

Not sure what happened, but my Motorola phone no longer automatically launches Android Auto when I get into the truck. I looked through settings in the phone and the app and the infotainment settings and I don't see anything amiss, but I have to disconnect and reconnect the phone to get Android...

A bewildering variety of dashcams out there and I'm thinking of getting one...so I figure, why not ask youse what your go-to unit is?

Unlike most of the folks on the MTC, I wanted a longer-than-OEM rooftop antenna to see if I could pull in far-off radio stations in the Maverick, so off to Amazon I went. Found the Eightwood universal radio antenna, with a 16" mast and three threaded adapters to choose from. Installation is...

The sun shade for the Maverick windshield arrived today from #Mabett, and like the other products I've purchased from them, it's impressive. Arrived in a large resealable bag with instructions on folding and unfolding the shade, and the shade itself is in its own black, zippered bag for stowing...

Very pleased with the packaging and the overall appearance of the kit...will take my time (hopefully this weekend) and install it. Pics to follow.

Purchased in March of 2024 - like new condition - original packaging retained and can be shipped at additional cost...(just give me a ZIP code and I'll calculate the charge) 0ver $700 new but can be YOURS for half the price! PM with your offer or any questions.

After a half year of wishing I had ordered a cap instead of a tonneau cover, we've pulled the trigger on a Leer® 180XL. Our first camping trip really drove home the need for it...just couldn't get everything we wanted to bring under the flat tonneau and ended up adding a cargo bag onto the top...

Purchased the kit (headlights, turn signals, front marker lights) and opened the box...then decided I just don't have the drive to install it...sealed it up again and am making it available to MTC members with free standard shipping included. Send me a msg if interested. Thanks!

A local tint shop (586 Tint Factory) is offering to do a full frontal PPF application on our Steve Trucklet: full hood, full front fenders, mirror caps, painted bumper surfaces and all front light glass for $2k and they'll do ceramic on the rest of the truck for another $1k. 10 year warranty...

Stopped at a local ice cream shop, and spotted this on the wall amongst other local sports teams logos.

Update: yep, the issue is brushing the lock tab next to the door handle as I exit the truck. I'll have to train myself to make sure it's unlocked if I intend to reenter it shortly. Carry on, nothing to see here. 😏

The sun was out and I decided I wouldn't wait any longer, so I broke out the tools and got it done: installed the long-awaited low-profile trifold hard top from Rough Country. It took awhile to get it done but it was definitely worth it...getting the drop in liner side panels off, trimmed (for...

I can remote start Steve Trucklet with the FordPass app but not with the keyfob. I searched the configs with FORScan but I don't see anything relevant to my task. Just curious why it starts with the app and not with the keyfob...

Finally got the flush mount 3-fold hardtop tonneau delivered from Rough Country for Steve Trucklet...and, of course, now it's too freaking cold and windy to install it (first day of Spring in Michigan), so I unpacked it and ensured there's no damage or missing parts...hopefully the current...

I decided to have a little fun with the tailgate letters, so I installed all of the letters except for the "E" and mocked up a single dash where the E would go. I figure, why not? That's how most everybody pronounces it anyway. What do you think? Poll above.
