My mother in law is looking at getting a Maverick while on vacation in a couple months in sunny Detroit MI. She is looking for a replacement for her EcoSport daily driver and her 03 Ranger she uses for spraying microbes for soil rejuvenation here on Maui. She needs AWD hybrid for the economy...
To be fair I do not know for sure that this Cybertruck and Bronco Raptor haven't been to Moab. But it is likely given the fact that we are on a small island in the middle of the ocean. But I do know for a fact that one of these costs less than half of the cheaper of the other two. I do know...
Aloha everyone, sorry I haven't been on here in a while. My laptop recently crashed and I ran my tablet over with my tractor, and then life just started getting in the way along with everything else going on in these crazy times.
Glad all you 2025ers are enjoying your hybrid AWDs. We are still...
I just want to say to all my fellow MTC members in Appalachia and the central South, I hope you are alright and safe. Living on an island in the middle of the ocean we always fear the storms, flooding can bring ultimate devastation. From what I have seen it looks like many are in the grips of it...
You all know me as the Maverickman. Some of you may even know the my wife is a 5 year survivor of stage 3 breast cancer. A couple years of chemo, 4 surgeries, and 5 years of hormone therapy and she was feeling pretty good about things.
Unfortunately this spring she started having nausea...
Not sure if this should be in the Off-topic or the Automotive segment of our forum here. Either way me and my wife are very excited to have put a downpayment on a brand new Bobcat CT2025 compact tractor. Many of you know We live on Maui, some of you may know we live off grid down a dirt road on...
Got a couple things done on the Tremor today. After our camping trip last week it was evident we needed some rear end support. It was time to put in the AirLift load bags in. I decided to do it the slightly harder way and not jack up the truck. I just ran it up on ramps and fought the folded up...
Well we made it. We are finally here at Kipahulu campgrounds in the National Park outside of Hana, Maui. It was a long(lol) arduous journey through closest tropical rainforest to my house! It took us 2 whole hours to get here. 42.3 miles and about 900 turns lol. The road to Hana is a very fun...
Aloha! We havent camped for a very long time, its been nearly 5 years. Those are the years since my wifes cancer diagnosis. Today she is doing alot better. Working full time building houses, keeping me moving, and still time in her day to love 3 cats and 2 dogs. We used to go with a really nice...
I remember a while back someone being concerned that the Maverick wouldnt have all of its AWD traction while in reverse, either for offroading or backing a trailer or whatever. So I hauled a load of lumber home the other day. Just a rough guess I put it around 1900lbs given its overall mass...
Just found the Subaru Brat test truck everybody is talking about. It's Forester based and has a lowered ride height to appeal to the mini truck crowd. Makes my Tremor look huge by comparison!
It was actually a custom project car for a body guy on island. He did it himself rear window is...
Crazy prices for a Tremor on Maui. It is the 2nd one on island after mine and also HPR. I get it's a lariat but I paid 29k for mine. This is crazy!!

Saw a color matching hybrid the other day at the Lowes lumber yard. Not sure what he was working on but said he has nothing but love for that truck. We were buying material for a utility cabinet and battery shelf for 8 golf cart batteries for our new solar system in the carport we built for our...
Just came across this new youtube review from some boys up north. They took it on some decent trails and got it almost as dirty as Ive gotten mine.
They did bash it for not having more cameras, would be cool but only at a certain price point. Like I wouldnt pay $1500 extra for em. But otherwise...
I hauled 4 solar panels and a couple of mounting rails home today. This is in addition to 2 good sized dogs, 3 big bags of laundry, 15 gallons of water, a new Milwaukee shop vac, aswell as our truck fridge. Here is some pics of it along with every other pic of it working that I have taken.
Has anyone installed a switch in-cab to control the flex bed 12v power outlets?
I have a XLTremor that just had the blank 12v wiring doors in the bed. I put a 12v outlet on one for my fridge/freezer and on the passenger side i put in a lighted switch that controls 10 led lights I put throughout...
Canopy just named their pickup which is a derivative of the one they built to test for the Army. It's the one vehicle I am also considering buying as new. I like the designs the company uses. After seeing the beds capability I honestly think it could possibly be useful to me as my work vehicle...
