Have a deal with Carvana for them to buy my Maverick. Chase bank holds the note and Carvana needs a photocopy of both sides of the title. Two weeks and waiting. Three phone calls to Bopal. Cant anybody do their job?

I am at the Ford store waiting for their offer to buy my ‘24 Maverick. I had a recent cancer diagnosis and I want to get rid of all of my bills since I had to quit working until this chemo/ radiation deal is done in late march. I paid off my mortgage , cancelled the extended warranty so I get...

A Mopar engine block, some Peterbilt parts and a Christmas tree.

Wiith the onset of winter the tire pressure needs to be adjusted. I usually use my trusty tire gauge but I thought I would try the new fangled gaugescon the dash screen. So I set all four tires to 35 psi. Great. After driving one city block each tire now registers a different pressure... 28 psi...

Bought a used shop crane this morning that I need to install the engine in my '65 Dodge Coronet. My old shop crane does not have an extendable boom so this is more better! Good $75 investment

Sunday we drove the Maverick with the AC on. Tonite I made a fast food run and started the truck thru the Ford app. Got out side and the steering wheel and seat heaters were on and the heat was blowing at 76f. Darnit!!!

Still a pain with that skid plate...

Yeah I didn't think so... and it was only $600!!!! For a couple hour discussion. Am I missing something? https://www2.eoilreports.com/e/8822/register-4936450314089036887/95t6h3/1717019939/h/azFWErvxj8f4XKB3xZYF6x39Lb9Gfh_pB9XhgMDHcbY

A case of Techron fuel system cleaner and the Votex drain plug I ordered.

Does the 2.0 EB use a 12mm x 1.75 thread on the drain plug? Getting ready for an oil change and zi want to buy one of those fancy drain plugs that used a hose to drain the oil. I plan on cutting a couple holes in the steel skid plate to facilitate future drains.

Just wondering how much oil you Eco Boost consumes... I had to add a qt after 2000 miles at roughly 9500 miles total . Not worried just wondering. I may try 10W30 oil on the next change to see if it changes.

Well I broke down and bought a new floor jack. 37 years since I bought my Sears two ton so it deserves a rest. My son Derek will get it and he should be able to fix it with a little work. I gotta tell you lifting my F350 dually was about all the 2 ton could handle. The new one is a 3 ton. I...

Well my '87 Maverick Xtra Large is back in running condition after a 7 year nap. I got this from an online friend that needed it off his property in LosAngeles county back in 2015. It had been parked on his Mom's property snce 2001. A dispute with ConEd became an attempted seizure of his...

If I swap in one of these V-16 CAT diesels would I need to add a hood scoop to gain motor clearance? Polished 150 gallon aluminum fuel tanks and 8" chrome stacks would add some coolness to the Maverick. I can get a deal since I can pick them up at the factory...

Okay... I can get an oil burning smell from under the hood. The Maverick used 1+ quart of oil in the trip back from Florida about 2,000 miles total. It's due for an oil change(actually past due). So I hope to put the truck on my lift and pull the skid plate and change the oil plus look for...

Headed south to FL in the Mavarick last Sunday to pickup my bride ( who flew down one week earlier). Now we are headed to MS then Muscle Shoals, AL then Memphis then home. Fuel mileage is 29.4 right now... headed in the right direction. The warmer weather certainly helps. Used 1/2 qt of oil...

Great for city traffic...

0K.... So my Maverick has the FX4 suspension package. The ride, especially in this cold arctic blast , is way too harsh IMHO. And the seat cushions are hard. My F350 crew cab dually rides better than the Maverick. I'm a crabby old bastard but I have driven millions of miles in beat up, worn...

Back when I was selling Fjords back in the 90's every few years we would get a visit from our sales district manager. He would always have a corporate executive in tow...maybe from sales, engineering, Ford Credit or ??? Around 1994 our district manager came by on his tour of flyover country...

Well at 1284 miles I figured it was time to dump the oil and filter. I made the mistake of removing the entire 950lb skid plate... won't do that again! Refilled with 5w30 Ultra Pennzoil and used a Baldwin full size filter. Fit perfectly without any interference. Took an oil sample. Looked...
