  1. Why no accesories ready to plug into the bed wiring?

    Ford makes a big deal out of the convenient power taps terminated near the tailgate on both sides of the bed. How come no one is selling direct plug-in accessories? If I want to add a couple of 12V DC power sockets to the bed, I have to buy the sockets, buy the pigtails, wire them together...
  2. Oh no... battery or BMS trouble?

    The last few times I got into my Maverick at night, I noticed the interior lights were not coming on when I used the fob to unlock the door. Opening the passenger side door also failed to light up the interior lights. After driving about 15 miles, things are back to normal. I'm going to try...
  3. Who watches golf? -- The Masters today (Easter)

    I hope everyone had a nice Easter. I love watching the pros play but I rarely do (no network or cable TV). I watched the last several holes of the last round today. I used to golf a little but I don't know the rules the pros play by. On the 17th or 18th hole, the leader, Rahm, hit a ball...
  4. Another false alarm...

    Yesterday, I had my driver's side door open and was looking for something I left in the Maverick. With the driver's side door still open, I opened the driver's side rear door and the alarm went off. I don't get it... is there a reason this should happen? I always keep the vehicle locked...
  5. Feeling less and less hopeful about long life / rust resistance...

    I'm in upstate NY snow country where tons of salt and oceans of salt brine are put on the roads in the winter. I've yet to have a vehicle last more than a dozen years before the body rusts through or rust starts damaging operational parts. We got an inch or so of snow last night. I just...
  6. How does the electric parking brake work?

    Is the parking brake mechanical, activated by an electric control, or does it electrically control the brake hydraulics?
  7. Fordparts.com slow to process order

    A few days before Christmas, I ordered a second bed cubby to install in the driver's side of my Maverick's bed. I thought it would be easiest to use Ford's parts website rather than call the dealership, etc. Using Fordparts.com seems pretty seamless: you order and pay for the parts on the web...
  8. My neighbors must be getting sick of me setting off my Maverick's alarm.

    The first few times, I was laying on the couch and must have had something else in my pocket press the panic button on the key fob. Unlike my Subaru, where I just hit the "unlock" button to cancel it, it wouldn't stop. I had to put on shoes and run outside to open the door and start the...
  9. Radio/music/infotainment question from clueless non-techie...

    I've never owned a mobile phone. I do have an iPod Touch though. Can I use it to play my music in the Maverick via Bluetooth or cord connection?
  10. Do dealers not like to take orders?

    I went to the Ford webpages and built a Maverick. It was sent to my local dealer. They responded with an e-mail asking for more info. I answered it. They said they'd get back to me soon. After waiting two weeks with no further contact from that dealer, I cleared the Ford cookies on my...
