  1. Torture test towing: 104 degrees, 5% grade, 3600lbs trailer, 4 adults & more

Now I’ve haul over double this weight through the...
  2. Brake upgrade (EBC Yellowstuff rotors & pads) for my 2.0

    Ok so I’m labeling this an upgrade because I’m sure thinking it will be. I swapped out my factory rotors and pads with EBC Yellowstuff. I’ve had very good luck with these pads in the past and they have the best feel of any pad I’ve had ever. Including my expensive race pads. They just wear out...
  3. Duster KIt received

    Received my duster kit from wolf box. This will be a perch fit for my maverick as it’s a work truck and I take it off road a lot. So keeping the interior clean is a task. So far so good. Product looks great and the attachments look like they are gonna get all the tight spots. I haven’t had it...
  4. All fluids changed @ 70K miles

    Hit 70k so swapped my oil to 5w50 amsoil because I’m doing some heavy hauling in the heat the next few months. Trans fluid with amsoil not the ultra low viscosity. And ptu fluid. Also drain flushed and filled with engine ice for coolant. All fluids looked good going out. Did rdu a few weeks...

  8. Blackstone Oil Report at 50k Miles (2024 EcoBoost Maverick)

    So at 50k I was able to run my 2.0 ecoboost to 0 percent oil life with recommendations from blackstone. This timeline just so happened to be the Pete time to test worst case scenario for me. First I hauled a trailer slightly over 4k down and back to Texas never shutting it off down or back. 23...
  9. Rdu fluid change

    So my truck got 50k on it and that’s a lot of towing, and off road. The rear drive fluid is probably on the harsher side with how much I drive it off road. I’m constantly in the sand dunes, mountains and snow and mud. My rdu works overtime. Good news is the fluid didn’t look terrible. The...
  10. Michigan to CO

    So recent trip to Co. Empty going out. Very loaded coming back heavy headwind going out half way very mild headwind back. 75mph set cruise. Very happy.
  11. Another load

    Well this is certainly way way above the max 4k. lol But the maverick does it regularly for short trips 60-80miles
  12. Before and after

    So I have been running 265 tires since I got this truck. Love them but I also drive a ton. I haven’t had my 24 for even a year and I have 50k on it. So I decide to take the stock 19” rims from my focus rs and wrap them in some more street friendly rubber. I know which one I like better but...
  13. Wrong ATF fluid!

    Ok so I bought my maverick spring of 24. As some know I drive a ton. So wasn’t long and I did my first transmission fluid change. I ordered what was on the amsoil recommended sheet. Lv fluid. Today I see they have updated to ulv fluid. Now some would panic and think oh boy. Know I have...
  14. Another successful haul with the Livernois tuner.

    Just got back from another trailer trip. 1900 miles total. Trips down I had just under the 4k limit in my 10’ enclosed trailer with twin axles. I ran my 87-93 flex octane tune. That feature was great as on more than one occasion in the Kentucky mountains I only found 92 Oct. trip back only had...

  16. My Maverick did well in the Rockies

    So took my maverick and my 12’ enclosed trailer to Co for a hunt. Handled the 20 hours of hauling just fine. Averaged 13.8 at 68 mph. Keep in mind I have big heavy tires on this. I took this little truck much farther off road that I thought I would be able to. Very impressed with it again. Just...
  17. Silver lake sand dunes

    So went a few weeks back and went better than I expected. But I went back today and realized some issues. First even with all the Nannie’s turned off my stability control kills it. I can be moving right up a very steep hill which our driveline is shockingly good at. Then you hear the brakes...
  18. Video: Test Hill @ Silver Lake Sand Dunes

    This is the first hill at silver lake sand dunes. Test hill. The video as usual doesn’t show just how big and steep it is.
  19. Silver lake sand dunes

    So today my boys woke up and asked to go to the dunes. So we jumped in the maverick to see what it had. This thing is shockingly good in the dunes. I did have the awd turn off 3 times but it wasn’t anytime I was just using it. It seemed to be when the stability was trying to keep it straight...
