  1. New to the club. 2026 Maverick XLT Hybrid FWD. Impressions from a first time hybrid owner.

    I ordered my 23 in 22 and was Lucky I only had a 5 month wait. My only negative so far was the dealership hiding "In Demand" extra profit but that aside, I love my Maverick. I do have to agree that there are things that could be better such as the plastic interiors ability to attain scratches at...
  2. 2027 Kia EV3 start sales at $29,890 in USA

    I'm right there with you, at this time I wouldn't want to see the Maverick become a full EV. I wouldn't mind it if they made it a plug in Hybrid with a bigger battery and the ability to drive as an EV with a limited range. Even than I don't think I would be inspired to trade in my 23 Hybrid as I...
  3. Crutchfield Research

    The majority of the time , Crutchfield is spot on, but not always. In my 1990 Mustang, Ford must have had the speakers specially made with shallow depth and a full metal front cover attached to protect it from the door panel. I ended up with three different sets before I got the Morel components...
  4. Hybrid or EcoBoost — Which One Would You Buy Again?

    I have a 23 Hybrid and love it, so naturally I would go for the Hybrid but would like to see Ford put a bigger battery in it and make it a plug in Hybrid.
  5. Grill lights

    I added the Mabbet bug deflector to my hood and it has three amber LED's built in, just make sure you test the lights before the install and have someone flexible that can get to the fuse holder. I think it looks great and it has been through many a carwash and high-speed trips without an issue.
  6. Whoever designed the battery compartment for the 23 hybrid should be terminated

    I was going to say the same, even a piece of discarded plastic will hold the bolt in the socket long enough to get the bolt in.
  7. 2027 Kia EV3 start sales at $29,890 in USA

    That Kia seems more aimed at the Ford Mach E than the Maverick. My Mach E has the pushbutton exterior door openers and people that don't own cars with push button doors have a hard time in non emergency situations. If it didn't have good old fashioned door pulls inside, that might have kept me...
  8. Failing 12V battery causing deep sleep and eventually a P061A code and a tow

    I had a similar problem with my 2023 Lariat Lux but in my case it went directly into brick mode. After being stuck in the middle of my street I opened and closed my door with the vehicle off, I turned it back on and it unfroze so I went directly to my dealership. They found my 12 volt battery...
  9. Upcoming review for Mabett lighted hood deflector and roof mount auxiliary lights

    Good Idea, I will see if I can find one that is open and energizes only when the parking lights come on although there weren't many extra spots in my Lariat.
  10. Upcoming review for Mabett lighted hood deflector and roof mount auxiliary lights

    Thanks, a correction to my previous wording, I have located the fusebox in the pass side top of footwell but the box itself is not the same as in the instructions. I may just reroute the wires to a hot parking light wire.
  11. Upcoming review for Mabett lighted hood deflector and roof mount auxiliary lights

    Glad you have the hood deflector lights working, I could not find the correct Fusebox location as described in the instructions. My 2023 hybrid Lariat is not like the one pictured.
  12. Selling my 2023 back to the dealer

    Sorry to hear about your troubles and understand your motives. You apparently got a lemon as that can happen in any marque but is less prevalent in others. My 23 Hybrid Lariat Lux must have been built on a good day as the only issue I have had was with the battery and Ford put in the new AGM...
  13. Most of the time my hybrid works great, but….26.8 mpg is not good

    I see the problem, you got a bull stuck in your grill, that can kill your milage. Seriously, where did you get your fuel at. I had a similar issue going from Alamogordo NM. to L.A. and even though I was primarily freeway where I was still getting 34mpg, after a fill-up in AZ. my milage dropped...
  14. Plum crazy Maverick? or Lime Light?

    I l I like both, the plum crazy looks well matched to the Mav's contures and the limelight looks like an old Ford color, electric apple and close to "gotta have it green". Both would work well.
  15. 5/3/26 DFW Texas Meet

    It's the perfect truck for a roofing companies most important asset, the "Estimator". No roofing company could survive if not for the man who brings the jobs home. No Sales, No Company. All he/she needs is a ladder, some basic tools and is often the first person to make an impression, positive...
  16. Fix For Dashboard Creaking Noise

    If my 2023's dash rattle/squeak starts to bother me, I do the simple fix, Turn the radio up and problem solved.
  17. Rubber floor mats recommendations?

    I bought the factory mats with the Ford points I received when I purchased my 23 Lariat Lux Hybrid and the fit was perfect as well as having "Maverick" in raised letters on the mat. I would recommend them as worth the price.
  18. Spotted this classic keeping its cool… 🕶️

    I bought the type that functions like an umbrella a little over three years ago and still use it today. It fits my 23's windshield nearly perfect and the handle rests safely on the housing of the center screen. I have had to make some minor repairs to a few of the metal frame to shade material...
  19. Hybrid thoughts

    I purchas I purchased a 2023 Hybrid over the Mach E as I wanted the ability to drive long distance when needed without worries of charging along the way. I do use the pick up bed and use it as a light duty truck. I have been Happy with the power/performance of the combined 2.5l and electric...
  20. Maverick is being returned to Ford, hopefully our part ex 2019 Silverado is still at ford to get back

    Sorry you had a bad experience with your New Mav, you must have gotten a hangover Monday built unit. My 23 has had only one issue of all the complaints I have read posted to this group and it involved the flooded acid battery. I hope you can unwind your deal and get your old truck back if thats...
