  1. Imperfect alignment?

    While sitting quietly in my two week old XLT Hybrid Maverick I realized the driver's seat is angled ever so slightly to the left. It's very slight but definitely noticeable. Is this an intended design detail or design flaw? Anyone else notice this. BTW, I'm only 300 mile in and am averaging...
  2. An unexpected little Easter Egg on the Maverick.

    I've had my XLT Hybrid for a week now and as I was giving it a coat of wax I noticed that the contours of the two front door skins near the mirrors, just under the black moulding under the windows are very reminiscent of the F-150's front door's sloping dip at the window's base by the mirrors...
  3. No auto start/stop?

    On my XLT Hybrid there are three function switches on the console. Drive mode, traction control & auto hold but no auto start/stop. I'm assuming there is NO auto start/stop on my vehicle. Is that feature exclusive to the EcoBoost?
  4. What's that noise?

    Whenever I open the doors to my Hybrid XLT I hear a sequence of clicks that sound like relays or switches activating. It lasts several seconds to nearly 30 seconds. Anyone know what they are? I'm assuming it's normal but it's seems unusual. Thanks
  5. I just picked up my XLT Hybrid from the dealership!

    After nearly 8 months of waiting I finally have my Maverick. I drove it home today and it's in PERFECT condition and runs beautifully. I've only put 40 miles on it but I love it already. I'm 6' 1", 220 lbs. and I have PLENTY of head, leg and hip room The seat is very comfortable an...
  6. My XLT Hybrid is being prepped for pick up.

    Two days ago (Wed) I got the e mail from Ford stating my Maverick is at the dealer and being prepped for pick up. I don't want to bother the dealer too early so can anyone out there tell me how long a wait I can expect? Thanks.
  7. Where's the crash test safety ratings?

    Has anyone seen any information concerning the federal crash test safety ratings on the Maverick? I've seen nothing about it anywhere.
  8. Cat anti-theft anyone?

    Has anyone out there in Maverickland installed a catalytic converter anti-theft device yet? I'm interested in what would work. Cables, shields or whatever.
  9. Parking brake as emergency brakes?

    My vehicles have always been "old school". ( '69 Chevelle, '95 F-150, '08 Grand Marquis) This will be my first vehicle with the toggle type parking brake. My question is; Can the parking brake be used as an emergency brake in case of main system failure? Thanks.
  10. Dash Pad anyone?

    Have any new Maverick owners gotten a Dash Pad yet? I've looked (Covercraft for example) but still haven't found one. THANKS!
  11. Buy outright or max out the 3 year, 0% from Ford?

    My 8/3 ordered OW XLT Hybrid Lux Mooned Maverick should be arriving to my dealer soon. I'm interested in opinions as to weather to pay cash or have 3 years of higher monthly payments at 0% interest of say five to six hundred per month. At those monthly payments I'll need to layout only 10k or...
  12. Why no tach in the hybrid?

    I know that the Hybrid Maverick is not equipped with a tachometer. Instead, is has a gauge to monitor/measure electric vs. ICE usage. But, is that due to it having an ECVT as opposed to a standard automatic transmission. Does a tach serve any purpose in a vehicle with a ECVT? Thanks.
  13. Not all that small.

    I just saw a Santa Cruz parked on a street today so for the hell of it I stopped and took a look at it. (I haven't seen a Maverick in the wild yet) It's not as small as I imagined it would be. Therefore, the Maverick will not be as small as I imagined. The Santa Cruz is very stylish in...
  14. Moonroof Markup!?

    I just viewed my window sticker in the tracker feature and I saw that for my Hybrid XLT the price of the moonroof was listed as $995 BUT when I ordered it on 8/3 the price was printed out as $795 on the form. What gives? Can they do that? Anyone else have this happen?
  15. Additional 12V Outlet With Smoker's Package?

    Does anyone know than when the SMOKER'S PACKAGE is ordered that it includes an additional dedicated 12V socket for the lighter along with the ash cup and element? I've tried to search it but came up empty. Thanks.
  16. 2.5 liter for the Maverick only?

    Is the Atkinson 2.5 liter engine used exclusively in the Maverick Hybrid or is it also used in other Ford vehicles? I know the 2.0 Ecoboost engine cover from other Fords can be transplanted to the Maverick 2.0 but I don't know about the 2.5.
  17. Maverick VIN decoder / translator?

    I'm curious as to what the VIN coding means and has anyone deciphered theirs yet? I've got a build date and a VIN so I was just wondering.
  18. Sprucing up your garage?

    Is anyone else out there cleaning, reorganizing or just generally sprucing up their garage in anticipation of getting their new Maverick? I've been waiting over five months for mine to arrive. Meanwhile once a month or so I'll do something to the Maverick's side of the garage to better it...
  19. How's the horn?

    Hey New Maverick owners. Is the horn a weak beep or a loud blare? I haven't heard anything about that. Thanks.
