  1. Second catch can drain (worse than the first)

    '22 Lariat, 2.0 Ecoboost. I just emptied my catch can for the second time at ~13k miles during oil change. The last empty was at ~6k miles. First drain at 6k oil change on the left, second drain at 13k on the right. A lot more nasty stuff. Deeper red color (rust?) and more sludge...
  2. Using Maverick to move / tow a loaded roll off dumpster?

    I've got a problem. A contractor has left a roll off dumpster in front of my garage, and the company is having "trouble" picking it up. It's blocking the door from opening (they dropped it too close when I wasn't home). My question for everyone is, could/should I use my Mav with 4k tow to...
  3. First catch can drain

    I installed Buschur's catch can at my 1k mile break-in oil change, and just drained it after 5k miles. The fluid smelled like islay whisky, and had chunks of something in it. Glad this didn't make it to my Turbo! What you see in the cup was 5k miles of stop-and-go commuting, and a few light tows.
  4. Buschur's 2.0EB catch can installed

    I installed the 2.0EB catch can made by Buschur on my Maverick over the weekend. Build quality of the can looks pretty good. I peeked in the fitting and verified some stainless-looking medium inside. I do like the mounting location. I ended up using standard hose clamps as a temporary...
  5. 6 days of ownership and I get rear ended.

    Well, after 10 months of waiting and 6 days of ownership, I get rear ended at a stop sign. My beautiful Alto Blue Lariat..... Very minor, but the bumper got a nice little hole, the trailer plugs are caved in, and the hitch receiver took the brunt. I'm worried about the receiver being hit and...
  6. Highway vs City miles - Take the long way home? (over-analysing my commute)

    OK nerds, here comes a thought experiment based on my own commute: I have two choices when it comes to my commute. The shorter trip that is 52%/48% City/Hwy, or the longer trip that is 11%/89% City/Hwy. My question is, should I take the long way home (distance wise) and burn more gas to keep...
  7. Factory oil color is orange?

    Hey all, anyone check the oil from the factory (2.0 EB) and find it an odd color? The oil looks orange to me. I wonder if FoMoCo uses a dye to check for leaks or some kind of break-in additive. I searched the forums and couldn't find any info. Thoughts? *UPDATE* I called the service...
  8. 10 Months later and it's finally home...

    Took delivery today and no shenanigans at the dealer. Honored price and interest rate from 1/15/22. Such a nice ride home. Alto blue is such a nice color.
  9. Shipped!

    From built to shipped in 1 day! Hang in there folks, I went from "in production" to "built" to "Shipped" in a week and a half. Got the message that it's been shipped on 10/23 and estimated delivery is 11/4.
  10. Production started a week early!

    It's the little wins in life that keep us going. Was scheduled for 10/21 (per Ford chat), and the tracker showed "in production" on 10/14. Window sticker came next day. We'll see when mods go live. One thing I'm irked about the is the Wifi hotspot being dropped and only getting $20 credit...
  11. Production delay with no notice

    Just a public service announcement, my order scheduled to build this week (9/12) was delayed a month. There was no notification from the dealer or Ford. I ended up contacting support chat out of curiosity and was told it was moved to 10/10. It doesn't show up on the tracker either. You might...
  12. Got the "Production scheduled" email, shockingly

    Convinced I would be rolled to '23, I was shocked to receive the "scheduled for production" for my Lariat Luxury, Co-pilot, FX4, Tow. I had like 4 of the top 5 impacted options. Now I can't wait for October!
