  1. Recommendation for Extended Warranty

    My 2023 Maverick just hit 32,000 miles, and its manufacturer's warranty will expire in a couple of months. I got multiple snail mail and emails from various extended warranty providers. My questions are: 1. Should I just roll the dice and hope it lasts as long as any Toyota? 2. If I buy an...
  2. Truck bed accessory 12V pigtail has no power

    I have never used this before this weekend so there's no reason for the fuse to be blown. I tried both side of the truck bed and neither side has 12v power. My quetions are: 1- I will check fuse box and #84 fuse to see if it's already blown for whatever the reason 2- If it's blown, does the...
  3. Can I Put Stock Tire and Rim on Where the Spare Used to be?

    I had a punctured tire that somehow has a hole on the side wall, which means the tire cannot be repaired. Now I have a dilemma: there remain 3 tires still have about 50% of threadwear left. So I probably not going to buy a set of 4 new tires. Instead, I will need to buy 2 new ones. Then I have...

    I don’t know if this is a design flaw or poor installation but these clips don’t seem to able to hold their place and keep falling off. Any suggestions to keep them secure?
  5. Help: How do I install LED strip lights with marine panel?

    I bought both LED light stirps and a marine panel. I need some help on how to connect the switch on the marine panel to the LED strips so that it will be one when I open the door or lower the gate. A diagram or tutorial would be nice. I looked everywhere it seems people were kind of vague on how...
  6. Steering Column's button layout is not intuitive ...

    I owned the truck for two years now, I still am not used to the button layout. Often I push the wrong button and/or I need to look down to remind myself which button is to pick up the phone and which is to hang up the call. Perhaps I am just too used to Japanese car layouts but I think the Ford...
  7. Climate Control Odd Behavior

    I have the basic XLT (2023) climate control. When I am driving normally, occasionally, the fan will increase to a higher level without my interaction. After a few minutes it will die back down to what it was. Is this normal?
  8. How often you should change oil for Hybrid engine?

    So I read in this forum that since the hybrid engine doesn't engage as much as the regular engine, you can just go with the recommended intervals which is about 7,500 to 10,000 miles per cycle. But according to this video, because the frequent start/stop and lower than regular operating...
  9. Educate Me: How Do I Sell My Car to Private Party The Proper Way?

    Hi, first, I am not selling my 23 Maverick. So don't worry. I love the thing. I am selling my other SUV and I posted it on Facebook Marketplace. I got an offer and the buyer is applying an auto-loan from Nevy Federal Credit Union. My SUV is fully paid for with clean title. I asked them if I...
  10. What Should I do (To Maximize Gain)?

    I have a question for all you guys. Should I trade in my 2023 XLT Hybrid with a 2024 XLT Hybrid? I took delivery of my XLT Hybrid almost a year ago and I loved it. So far 8,600 miles on the odometer and I am about to do the 2nd oil change. I also ordered a 24 one since at the time it's not sure...
  11. Would you buy a Chinese BYD PHEV with a whopping 81 mpg and 1,400 mile range? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    This has to be some of the biggest automotive news in recent years! A $14,000 car that can reach 1,300-1,400 miles range in one tank of gas. And the car looks like a premium car. There are some youtube videos where testers drive the new car cross country in normal driving mode with AC on getting...
  12. Is this a decent inverter for the truck?

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y549WB9?tag=slickdeals09-20&ascsubtag=494eeb0406a411ef8ab5ca32e05c6d670INT&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 Looks like a pretty good deal. I am thinking of adding a marine outlet in the back and using this to power some tools. What do you think?
  13. After recall firmware upgrade, my XLT Co-pilot 360's Reverse Warning (cross traffic alert) Is Gone

    I see a line on the reverse screen saying "be cautious of approaching vehicles" or something like that. Does anyone know what happened? Was that feature disabled or it's something I can re-enable in settings?
  14. Hybrid Default Oil Filter - FL-910-S or FL-910?

    It appears that Advance Auto Parts sells the FL-910 (missing an S) filter. I was wondering if this is the same thing as the FL-910-S filter recommended by the manufacture manual?
  15. Has anyone successfully installed the Power Inverter outlet + light panel from Lariat to an XLT or XL?

    I have an XLT that has the inverter outlet in the back of the center console. So the inverter is there. I'd like to route the wire to the truck bed and hook up to an outlet there. I like the look of the Lariat's panel but it's not necessary (unless the panel itself can be purchased fairly...
  16. Anyone seen this: Ford always charge me $11.68 then refund right after at the beginning of each month?

    I am not sure why this is happening. I know that I bought an accessory from the official Ford accessory website using this Amex card. Anyone see similar thing? I am worried that this is a "trial" type service they gave me for free for a period of time then start charging after the trial period.
  17. Backup Camera with Tow View... just lower your tailgate halfway (middle position)

    Ok, I really kinda missed this one function from my Honda Pilot where it gives the "top-down" view where you can see the link between your car and the tow hitch and trailer behind it. I use it all the time when I need to back off with a trailer attached. It also helps when you try to set up the...
  18. Vinyl Protector Spray for Tonneau Covers - recommendations?

    There are so many options on Amazon, not sure which one to get. My goal is to spray on the vinyl cover once a year and keep it from elements and UV for as long as possible. Your recommendation and experiences?
  19. Soft close door latches ...

    Ok, I get it, this is a cheap vehicle, not a Lexus, so don't expect a smooth door-closing experience. On the other hand, I feel there is something we can do to improve the door-closing experience. One thing I feel is that the door can add some sound damping and weight. I am not sure what the 2nd...
