Ford apparently has an available traction control system update for the 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD as noted in this thread.
It will allow the hybrid AWD truck to finally pass the one wheel only traction test which might be very important this winter.
There has not been any feedback that I've seen...
There was a thread where a poster reported regardless of how hard or often his brakes were pumped, there was no effect in slowing the truck.
It resulted in a crash.
So what do you do in that circumstance? - Use the eBrake as it is intended to provide an emergency back up if your brakes fail...
For my MY25 XL hybrid, I discovered that all I have to do to prevent the AC from coming on EVERY time I start up the truck, which it consistently did, is to turn the fan setting to 0 before I shut the truck down.
The Ford Ai assistance bot had a different opinion, as it said turning off the AC...
Has anyone seen a difference in MPGs attributed to adaptive cruise vs standard cruise vs driver only with their Maverick?
I don't have ACC on my XL Maverick, but I use the standard cruise intermittently.
I'm in the habit from my other vehicles to cancel cruise and let the car slow down a...
So, per the title, I asked Grammerly, an AI article writer, to generate an article targeting vehicle enthusiasts, for an explanation of why AI written articles are are less than desirable..

Truck is driven and stopped with transmission selector in Drive or Reverse
Ignition key turned to off position

Perhaps my circumstances are unique, perhaps not.
When looking for a new vehicle, I needed:
A truck with a bed - I carry lots of stuff that I don't want to put in a trailer
Good MPGs - The more the better
AWD - Where I live folks have AWD / 4WD or they may have to walk home
Ability to tow a...
I watch local broadcast stations for the local news and weather, and low and behold, this morning there was a Ford Company (not a dealer) truck advertisement.
They mentioned the Ranger and the Maverick BEFORE the F-150.
All other Ford truck ads I've seen were for the F-150.
This was the first...
I was contacted by Ford to do a virtual meeting with a "subject matter expert" for any questions or feature explanations.
Doing my homework up front, I had a list of topics.
Few to none could be answered, like does "slippery mode" get better mileage? "Eco mode is designed for that" was the...
