  1. Strange observation: No one stocks our air filter

    Well, at least by me. I went to two different auto parts stores, and its not something they carry. Both said they would have to order it. Yea, I can do that too... Has anyone else noticed if part stores by them carry the air filter? Sorry, just had to rant.
  2. Hybrids: What tire did you switch to, and do you like it?

    I'm about to cross 43k miles, and the tire life is getting low (I'm surprised the factory tires lasted this long), so now I'm getting ready to start researching tires. People that have swapped out tires on their hybrid, what did you switch to, and what's your opinion of it? Looking something...
  3. Maverick Hybrid is inherently flawed (but I still love it)

    So crossing one year and 20k miles, I still love my Maverick, but I can't stop and think how it could be significantly better. The issue is the sizing of the hybrid battery. The Fusion Hybrid has a 1.4kWh, and the Maverick only has a 1.1kWh battery. This really cripples the Maverick at...
  4. MA1 stopped work. Replace with same or different?

    My MA1 stopped working reliably. It would connect, then disconnect, and repeat. Eventually the car would complain the USB device is not supported. Up until then it worked well. Should I replace it with another MA1, or an AAWireless? Anyone make the switch?
  5. What is everyone's Hybrid Maverick highway fuel economy MPG?

    And by highway, I'm talking 60MPH or faster. Maybe I still miss my Fusion Hybrid, but I feel a little disappointed in my Maverick's highway fuel economy. I only seem to average about 37-38 when traveling at speeds over 60. It barely wants to glide in electric mode while the Fusion was happy...

  7. Upgrade wireless charging pad?

    Has anyone looked into a better charging pad for the one that comes with the Lariat Lux? When running wireless AA, the pad struggles to keep up, and breaks even in charge, and just generates heat. I suspect this charging pad lacks coils for putting in more energy into modern phones. Does Ford...
  8. Is any company working on a rear view mirror riser?

    It would be really nice to be able to raise up the rear view mirror so its not hogging so much of the windshield. Someone makes a riser for a Taco, but it probably wouldn't work on the Maverick because of the 360 camera http://www.birddawgindustries.com/tacoma-mirror-riser.html Something like...
  9. Truck things you have done while waiting for your truck?

    Yesterday I was helping out at a friend's farm. Instead of using her F250, I loaded up my Saab 9-3 with a couple of bales of hay to move (fortunately, they were small, so 2 fit in the trunk nicely), and then had to go get feed from Tractor supply. Previous week was getting 8 foot boards for...

  11. Might need a gap vehicle while waiting for Maverick - suggestions?

    Unfortunately, I won't be able to get the Fusion into the body shop until the 30th of this month, so I'm rocking a Jetta rental right now (since I need to drive to NJ and back this week). But the rental budget that my insurance gives me won't last long. I have a sneaking suspicion that it might...
