Dammit. This has to happen while I am away, of course, and not home to put the code reader on it. 2023 Maverick XL, hybrid with low miles on it. My wife went to drive it today, and it took 6 tries to get it to start. Check Engine light came on steady, and the following warnings popped up:

This year, I finally got around to buying some cheap steel winter rims for our eco-boost Maverick. No TPMS sensors on these, but I can live for a few months with the yellow light on. But after the tire swap, no yellow tire pressure warning light.
I checked the onboard diagnostic and it somehow...
Ordered some 3 mm black plastic sheets on Amazon and some 3m tape. A little measuring, a little heat from a hair dryer to mold the plastic a bit, and in no time I made my own covers for those unexplainable cavities that Ford left in the rear wheel wells (where dirt and water and debris can...
Everything I’ve read says the 12v outlet on the dash is powered by turning the ignition key on, and coversely

Wow.
I have a feeling...
We have two Mavericks. One is cactus gray, and the black tailgate letters look great. But our second Maverick is carbonized gray and the black letters would have gotten lost in that color. I opted for the pricier ones with the red outline and I think it really was a good choice. These really "pop'.
We have two Mavericks, a 2023 XL hybrid, and recently added a 2022 XLT ecoboost. When they are parked side by side, I swear the 2023 XL hybrid sits higher. The difference is especially noticeable in the rear. Does anyone know if there’s a height difference between 2022 and 2023?
