This is probably because I'm missing something obvious, but . . . where in the blazes are the jack points on a '25? I can see from the diagrams in the manual roughly where they should be, but when I crawled under, I couldn't find the arrows that are supposed to be pointing to them (per the...

I'm really not sure whether this should go here in towing, or in maintenance, or . . . . [so I won't be offended if it moves] I connected the factory pigtail to my winch. It took some doing, as HF seems to leave the manual be when it makes changes to the product, but I got there (but with...

I'm about pulling my hair out here in this you-can't-get-there-from-here. I picked up a Harbor Freght/Badland ZXR 5000, a 5,000 pound winch, and their hitch winch frame. I also picked up both of the mount plates they carry--and neither seems to fit--the small one can't line up properly, while...

I have a 2025 lariat hybrid with 4k towing. When does it tell the trailer brakes to activate? When the brake pedal is touched, or when it pushes far enough to activate the actual brakes instead of regenerative breaking?

To be clear, we didn't buy the maverick to haul or tow. Rather, my wife had always wanted a little truck. While folks keep telling me we didn't need one, 1) My wife wants a little truck, and 2) I can afford a little truck. So we bought one. Forty years ago, she wanted a ranger, but her...

I'm getting request to install an update. On the last one, it seemed flash "system software" briefly. is this known safe yet?

I seem to get about 37mpg on average over almost 6,000 miles. This morning while crossing the valley, though, I tapped to current trip out of idle curiosity: uhm, really?

When heading to Tucson from Las Vegas, in both my '02 E150 4.6 and my '93 Cadillac Fleetwood, I tended to try to be down to a quarter tank before leaving (by not filling more than needed the last time before leaving). It's about 100 miles, and gas is so much less there! Anyway, I head down...

We picked up the 25 Lariat hybrid in march, and ever since, my pet peeve has been the idiotic seat belt sensor, which would insist on having "OK" hit, pre-empting all other access, even though it displayed that all used seats were belted. But a week or two ago, it suddenly stopped this...

I should’ve tested it ahead of time. My neighbor isn’t put isn’t much better than the Third World on electricity outages. Anyway, I pulled the hybrid maverick with his 400 W supposed up near the house to try to run chargers and the television and DVR. However, absolutely nothing seems to come...

With all of the things that want to send me alerts over the slightest whatever, why in the world does the antitheft system merely beep the horn rather than send an alert? For that matter, the mere fact of moving should trigger an alert! That wouldn't require constant gps; it could be triggered...

I'm not sure which pressure gauge to believe, the TPMS, my 18v Ryobi mini compressor, or something else. The first tire, after sitting overnight, read 33 on TPMS, and 35.5 on the Ryobi. The last said 35 on TPMS, and 37.0 on the Ryobi (and was on the other side, facing the mid morning sun, 70F...

While this has been hashed about in theoretical and generalized terms, I'm following through, and will post periodic updates. I have created a separate Roth IRA account, and transferred funds to exactly cover the loan--to the penny, both are $42,646.00 at this moment. There is a wrench in that...

Very much not happy. After waiting for build, and then through ford holding it hostage for quality hold, I was ambushed with an arbitration agreement at the closing. I was close to walking over it. If it were for me, I probably would have walked, but it was for my wife, who would have been...

Just heard from my salesman about my undelivered truck, on Day 19 in the train yard north of town. It seems that there's a new quality hold preventing delivery to dealers.

I'm finally getting perturbed. My build week got moved from 2/3 to 2/17. Fine, that happens. It was loaded Thursday that week onto the train car, which never successfully tracked, but my salesman was able to catch it stopped just short of the city las Thursday, and later at the unloading yard...

I thought I had another couple of weeks, but its on a train car now. I have a velocity blue maverick on the way. I live in Las Vegas, in the Mojave Desert, where we don't worry about tread life because the UV kills the sidewalls long before it's an issue. (I was actually stunned when I had a...

With my maverick supposedly loaded on a train in Hermosillo, ford is now willing to let me "manage" online systems with fordpass. But am I giving up any signup points if I sign up now rather than after purchase? some older online sources seem to suggest more points after purchase than before...

My dealer gave me the train car number that they loaded my Maverick on yesterday or this morning. I followed the instructions at https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/🧭-maverick-build-tracking-links.2882/ to call CSX' machine, and after a few tries, itgae me an answer: "Released by...
