  1. 2022 Hybrid vs ecoboost reliability

    I have an Ecob and it’s been great but only has 2500 miles on it. I bought it because I have a Mach e GTPE and didn’t want two new tech new models at the same time. It has worked out great. The Mach e has 12000 miles and I don’t use it for anything longer than 200 miles round trip. It has never...
  2. Why the ecoboost?

    I already had a Mach e and needed a trip car.
  3. Gas consumption question

    I am glad I didn’t get a hybrid if it makes you drive like a little old lady to get higher mpg.
  4. Oil-O-Meter...says %51...and the miles on truck are 4100...change oil when it says?? what?

    I still need to decide on when to change my ecobost. I drive it so few miles I don’t know if I want to just do it once a year or every 6 months. It has 1900 miles now and will have a year in February.
  5. Dealer added too much oil

    Walmart has an oil change pump in the auto section that is made for what you are trying to do. It is powered by your battery with clips and has a long small suction tube and a larger outlet tube. It works great for oil or transmission fluid.
  6. I might trade my Hybrid for an EB? What the heck!

    I also retired and drive a Mach e daily and bought a 23 Maverick EB AWD to drive on trips. I got it in January and it has 1900 miles on it the Mach e is 20 months old and has 10200 miles and has never been charged on a DC charger.
  7. Senior citizen Maverick owners thread

    I am 77. I have a 2023 Maverick Lariat ICE. It has 1900 miles and is only used on trips of more than 200 miles round trip. I just took it to Panama City Beach for two weeks. My primary car is a 2021 Mustang Mach e GT PE with 10,000 miles that I drive locally around Atlanta.
  8. Should I buy an ESP plan? 2023 hybrid XLT

    I did not buy extended warranty on my 23 Maverick ice but if it had been hybrid I would have because it’s more complicated with more moving parts and less history of service. I did buy a 7 yr 100000 mi on mi 2021 Mach e for the same reasons. I will likely trade it at the end of 7 years or the...
  9. Rather annoyed by random “OK” from system

    Would definitely be better than NOT OK
  10. Why am I running LED Daytime Running Lights?

    Because a LED is solid state component its natural operation is ether on or off. Usually to dim them you use multiple LEDs and turn on more or less of them to give the dimming effect. I am sure there has been some changes since I did design work with them in the 70s. A great power saving device.
  11. If You Weren't a Ford Guy/Gal Why Did You Get a Maverick?

    The Maverick is my second vehicle. My primary is a Mach e GTPE that I drive 80 percent of the time. Mostly the only time I take the Maverick is for trips that are more than 200 miles round trip or I need to pick up something that fits easier in the Maverick. I wanted them both though the same...
  12. Some questions regarding the Hybrid vs Ecoboost

    This may not answer many questions but I have the 2023 Lariat eco w/4K tow. I got the eco because my other car is a Mach e GTPE so I am good around town. I got the 4K tow not so much for towing but for the other stuff that comes with it like HD Radiator, trans cooler and other things. It’s still...
  13. Alabama Ceramic coating on the paint?

    I am going to get it done. I have it on my Mach e GT and it’s been great. It’s been on more than a year and shines grate is easy to keep clean and things like bird droppings wash right off. It cost $600 and took a full day. It was well worth it.
  14. 2025 Ford Maverick Refresh / Facelift?

    I don’t think you will see any changes until the shortages and delivery are solved. I think the Mach e will be updated first and then the Maverick.
  15. Central Armrest too low and too short

    I am 6’2” and have no problem with it. I drove from Atlanta to Panama City Beach yesterday and it was very comfortable. Try adjusting your seat.
  16. Fluid INSIDE speedometer plastic and rotary shifter

    From the pictures I am not sure it’s inside. It looks like the spray was caustic and pitted the plastic.
  17. Reasons You Purchased EcoBoost Instead of Hybrid

    All my local driving is in my Mach e so I got the 23 Maverick Lariat for trips. I figured one new technology car at a time was likely a good idea.
  18. Tall guy finally got a ride in a mavy 6’4”

    First thing I did is remove the headrest.
  19. Ordered my Maverick Lariat AWD

    Here is my blue one. No sunroof or black package but everything else.
  20. 3 open recalls?!

    There is a recall on the 4K tow wiring. I have not heard anything about it since the letter. I wish they would get on with it. We are not supposed to tow until it’s fixed.
