  1. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    LOL, that is the part that I get attention with every time I load or unload. Obviously some long ramps. But the trick is the remote control for the golf cart. It's a Cricket Miniature Golf Cart. You can get that thing with a remote control option. Well spent money. I push a button and that thing...
  2. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    Our Ranger is exactly 5000 lb with the Golf Cart on it. Just within the limits of our RV.
  3. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    I kinda miss the Maverick but I also don't. Coming from a Lariat First Addition with active cruise control and all that good stuff to an XLT Ranger was a step-down. But! That Ranger is more off-road capable than I could ever imagine. While boondocking in Utah and Wyoming we drove the Ranger into...
  4. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    I like what Demco did. That wasn't available to us in 2022.
  5. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    When we got the Maverick, there was no tow kit available yet. We transferred to 4 down in September of 2022. Roadmaster to be precise. It worked well for many miles. Well, until a dealership in Reno crashed the truck. We now tow a 2023 Ford Ranger. That thing got us into places, the Maverick...
  6. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    I saw that when doing my research. We will keep this one for a while. Took the rig over the scale not too long ago. 5000 Lb on the dot with the miniature golf cart in the bed. I am impressed by how off-road capable this truck is. It already got us into places the Maverick would have never gone...
  7. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    It's a 2023. Only the 4x4 Ranger can be flat towed. You can always consult the Ford Towing Guide if in doubt.
  8. Towing behind RV on a dolly

    Maybe I should write a final update. As already written, we had a flat tow kit installed. At first, things worked well, but by June 2022 we started having issues with the 12-volt battery. I ended up disconnecting the Invisibreak system most of the time. In April the truck went dead on us. I...
  9. My Ford Maverick EcoBoost caught on fire and exploded!!! 🔥

    That's right! And it was for airflow so fumes could escape, not oil drainage.
  10. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    Sorry, I am done with the Maverick. The dealer is hoping that they don't total it. They are willing to give us 35k for it. And that's precisely what a new Ranger would cost us. Plus! We are traveling and have to be in South Dacota for 4th of July. They will never have that repaired on time. New...
  11. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    The last update. After adding brake issues to the mix, and drooping it off at yet another dealership, Larry was crashed by one of the techs.They think it might be totaled. We should know more in the first week of June. We are moving on to a 4x4 Ranger.
  12. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    Time for an update. The truck sat at Borman Ford in Las Cruces, NM for a week without even looked at. My guy from Customer Experience Specialist/Dealer Experience Specialist, Ford CX/DX Team (short my Guy), arranged for a transfer to Viva Ford in El Paso, TX. Monday they were able to look at...
  13. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    The problem cable is for the BCM
  14. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    Anything is possible. But now I have the wiring diagram. All 2113 pages of it. :) Will be digging into that tonight. For now, we are still on the road. Driving to Phoenix.
  15. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    No, I am talking 12 volt system only.
  16. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    This dealer is actually pretty cool and thankful for all the info I could give them.
  17. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    LOL, you can't make this easy can you? Well, we will leave the truck behind and enjoy Phoenix and the Grand Canyon for the next two weeks. Hopefully, they figure it out here and don't take too long. Although I admit that I am itching to figure this out. As much as this is a pain in the rear end...
  18. ****REGARDING DEAD HYBRID MAVERICKS ISSUE****

    Darnon informed me that that's the power connection from the Underhood Junction Box to the Body Control Module. Once you apply 12 volts to the cable, it drops to 3.6 volts. So, either some bad connection somewhere within the cable itself or ground or maybe a bad BCM. It's definitely an...
  19. Tracking DEAD HYBRID Mavericks Reported Dealer Solutions / Fixes ...

    I posted my NEW issue on another thread on this forum. The link is below. Basically the low voltage issue moved on to a different cable. I fixed the original harness issue with below pictured terminals. I also used a piece of copper plate to make the whole thing a little longer and take the...
