  1. Warning Message about Blocked Pre-Collission Alert Sensor

    It was snowing this morning when I drove to work. The snow was wet. Suddenly a warning message on dashboard saying my Pre-Collission Alert was disabled because of blocked sensors. I guess that is because of the wet snow accumulated on the front bump. And I'm surprised that the sensors don't...

  3. Had Trouble to Connect Android Auto When No Cellular Signal Availabe

    I drove my Lariat Lux onto mountains. There wasn't cellular signal available. I knew that before so I downloaded offline maps on my phone's google maps. Everything went well on my way onto the mountains with my phone connect to Android Auto via wireless adapter. Even when the cellular signal...

  7. Android Auto Refuses to Connect If No Internet Connection?

    I went onto Poconos Mountain the past weekend. My phone is on premium TMobile 5G plan but there is no TMobile network available there. To my surprise, my phone couldn't connect to Android Auto on my Maverick, even though the Bluetooth connected very quickly. I tried rebooting phone, turning...
  8. Over-Tonneau Bike Carrier Tested

    I had a hard tonneau cover. And he like to carry my road bike without taking off any wheel. Here is my solution and it passed my first test this weekend: The cross bars are not fixed. They are kept in place by the tonneau cover pressure. So it is not too hard to take off the bike carrier, cross...
  9. Added a cheap Android Auto Wireless adapter

    Got it at AliExpress. Received in about two weeks. Installation is easy and connecting time at start is about 5-10 seconds. I'll use a double sided type to stick it under the bay. Will see if the connection stay stable while driving. So far, seems good.

  11. 1500 Mile Round Trip Mainly on I-81

    On the south bound half, set speed on 65-80 MPH, while 60-75 MPH on north bound. In between, about 400 Miles on lower speed on local or local highway. Used 87 gas all the time. For the whole trip, got 30.1 MPG. I haven't driven long distance for a few years. I didn't feel tired for the 500-600...
  12. Add Easy-to-Take-Off Bed Cross Rack

    Not fixed/screwed to side rail. Just use the hard tonneau and it's own tension to keep it at place. Fit in to my purpose that is to carry my road bike occasionally while still have a closed bed space to take other luggage, and easy to take it off when I don't have the bike.
  13. Not easy to carry road bike in bed

    Here is the Ford original idea. The bed is just a few inches shorter to close the tailgate: Also tried the hitch rack. It won't have enough space to allow me to open the tailgate flat. It also triggers the backup assistance warning which I can disable (but you may not want to permanently)...

  15. Psycho or Real

    I usually just drive my EB Lariat in Normal Mode and I like the feel of it's firm acceleration (comparing with my old Outback 2.5 CVT). Today, I decided to try it's Eco mode, I almost immediately felt that the acceleration was so much softer. Is it real or I just psyched?

  18. What's Maverick's algorithm of collision warning?

    I've been very curious about the collision prevention feature. I've tried many times to drive up close to the vehicles in front of me. But everytime, I push the brake before seeing the system to take over. Until today, I was driving normally on a two-lane country road. There was one car in...
  19. Please Get a Dash Cam

    I can't imagine if I hadn't slowed down and stopped even when I was driving on straight with green light. This guy almost T-bone'd me. I waited more than 10 months and picked it up from over 1000 miles away. It would be totalled by the reckless guy
  20. What Can I Do With Another Ford?

    Xmas is coming. I must be the nicest kid on earth. I'm driving my Maverick after 10 month waiting. Ford now is telling me the F-150 Lightening I ordered long time ago should be available the coming summer. What can I do? Buy a new house with bigger garage to host them both? Maybe spare today's...
