I just got finished with version 1 of my fishing rod holder for my truck bed. I got tired of cramming rods into the cab or having them rattle around in the bed. The key components of this design is the Builtright molle rack, and some folding shelf brackets. I’m trying to decide whether to...

This is a annoyance about the Maverick. The bed is 6” too short. On my way to the dump to rid some yard waste. A cheap ole garden tool fails to fit. Jeez Ford, if one of the target users is homeowners, garden tools should be a consideration.

Peering under the hood today and I spy, with my little eyes, evidence of some foul critters loafing around my Mav, on the topside of the front wheel liner. The mav has been sitting idle for the past week so I’m hoping that these guys were just cruising through. Gotta try out the peppermint...

I just installed a BuiltRight molle bed rack today. An impulse buy but I think it will work out rather nicely. Its designed to fit on either driver’s or passenger’s side of the bed. And because of the screwy hole pattern that Ford used, they had to cut slots and oblong holes for the...

Providing this as a data point for historical purpose, I rattle canned my stock steelie wheels a bronze using Duplicolor. I’m lukewarm on the results. I switched back to my steelies figuring to put some miles on the stock tires as gas prices are sort of high. I did 270 miles on this trip...

Scooting around Waikiki and was suprised to see one in front of me at a traffic light. Aloha!

Here’s a couple of pictures of a Yakima Bedrock (round bar) installed on my truck. In the Ford accessories catalog they label it as the low profile rack. As I had it in the garage I installed it along with the Yakima basket case. I’m not sure on the future usage of the basket case, will need...

Only 100 miles into it with my XL. Sort of like an extended test drive but with time to peek and poke around the vehicle. My mav is an XL, Ecoboost AWD, 4K towing, CoPilot 360, 400w in cab outlet, full size spare, spray in bed liner. I've previously owned a 1990 Nissan Hardbody and currently...

Hi all, just wanted to say hello and get my first post out of the way. Took delivery of my silver XL from the Dwayne Lane dealership up in Skagit this week. Just have to say, good dealing with them, no nonsense order process (July, 2020) and delivery - minimal time wasting. Sold the...
