Probably has more to do with how you drive it rather than any mechanical in deficiencies. There can be a pretty big spread in mileage depending on how you drive it, extreme weather conditions don't help either or any vehicle. I would just follow the maintenance schedule. I don't see where the...

Would you mind providing an Amazon link to what you know worked? TIA I have a 22 XLT hybrid with the original battery and I was thinking the same thing... It's always gone to sleep after a few days and I just throw it on a battery tender when I know it's going to be sitting there.

If you're talking about on startup... Generally the gas engine starts slow then ramps up when cold and in drive. I'm guessing it would do the same thing parked? I kind of like the idea how the gas engine starts slow, particularly when it's really cold so that there's oil pressure before it's...

I was trying to figure out if that was AI generated and it seems really strange to have six people that look pretty much exactly the same, even the clothes. I don't think I would trust a company that uses AI generated photos, particularly one that's going to be making parts to help trucks break...

I'd worry more about the turbo, the weak transmission on the EcoBoost and the Long-Term reliability of a direct injection engine with the EcoBoost. Sure. The hybrid is more complication but the engine just lumbers along and Is just a standard Port injected simple engine and the high voltage...

might be the phone limiting the charge due to overheating. Inductive really isn't an ideal way to charge a phone at a high rate unless you have some type of cooling. Being that it's a flat charger and you have it in a case kind of aggravates the whole cooling issue to shorten the life of a battery.

The AI video is draining my brain. Why are these things so repetitious and they just repeat so much garbage without getting to the points. It's almost like someone says generate me a 20 minute video and then it automatically pads it out with garbage. It was kind of bad enough when you couldn't...

I have the hybrid, but I always go the neutral set the parking brake then Park route. Also make sure it's out of auto brake hold mode so the load is firmly on the locked parking brakes before the parking pawl is engaged. Then there's no load on the transmission pawl. In reverse order, you take...

$1.12 in today's $ for the map, but who misses the windows down and the giant map flapping in your face and trying to correct a missed turn without pulling over. "Free GPS", aka Google maps. I remember when it went live. What an amazing evolution, particularly if your job requires finding places...

I've seen it on window stickers with the $795 conductivity "option" included that the dealer ordered with the truck. That would just annoy the hell out of me to see that on a retail truck on the long list of things that I have to get and don't want

At least, unlike GM, You have a choice just to use your connected phone through Android, auto or Apple carplay that your already pay for. Your Crestliner just had a paper map that You were responsible for buying.

I just get the "works" package at my local Ford dealership for a 22 hybrid. What's nice about this is that you've got someone that understands the recalls + how everything works on a Maverick. And all the work Is archived in the event of warranty questions. The advisor actually runs the VIN to...

Maybe get them to document that they used full synthetic compatible oil and you could always bring your own motorcraft filter And keep the receipts for warranty work. Nice part about the dealership. Is that it's all archived for any dealer in the United States If you should move and need to...

It's kind of annoying when you're looking at a row of new Mavericks and you can't tell what they are until you look at the window sticker of each one. If you have 20 trucks sitting there, it's really time consuming to figure out.

You get an A++ for effort and documentation. I wonder how many luxury packages Ford would not sell on the XL if they just offered electric seats. I pretty much didn't want anything else. As an alternative, you could buy an aftermarket seat pad For $75 and plug it into 12 volt port.

I like to have it at Max with a hot engine. It gives you some extra coolant in the system if you should get a leak. If you're worried about coolant consumption, just mark the bottle at hot and see if it changes.

I guess the fluorescent green ooze is just too delicious.

This can be kind of normal for the hybrid With extreme cold and short trips. The engine really doesn't warm up (Which also means it isn't burning a lot of gas) I've had a little bit of this once. It's pretty much going to be just up in the cap. Probably has something to do with plastic...

I've never understood why people want to pay $20,000 more for a trim level in a $27k truck. When the production run started it was 20k, base. And then there were tariffs and what not and 4 years passed.
