  1. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Update: Finally purchased the trailer. HF 1720lb 4X8 folding trailer. Thanks to the advice in the forum, I'm going to prime and paint the trailer pieces before I assemble. While I'd like to weld everything together to make a stronger frame, I think bolting will be way easier. Bought some Loctite...
  2. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    I was also looking at used...for some reason though Northen Virginia used trailer market is kind of bonkers. Some of the Lowes trailers are going for market price.
  3. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Yeah I looked at the tractor supply trailers. They seem like a pretty good deal, just slightly out of my price range for how much I'd be using it Still, seems like good options for other Maverick owners who are towing more often.
  4. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Northern Virginia... but these look like pretty good. Wish I was closer.
  5. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Let's see if my HF mig welder can handle it. I swear I shop at other places.
  6. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    I was originally thinking about a nicer trailer, but I thought about how much I'd be using it. I'm estimating I'd use the trailer less than 50 times in it's entire useful life. With the HF trailers ($750 fully built with registration), that works out to $15 a tow. Any higher cost and I'm...
  7. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Bob, Good feedback. They are the 12" tires. I actually need to do some investigation about the tire speed ratings too. This trailer may see 55-60mph, but never more than that. I towed a small u-haul trailer on I-95 with my old Civic...never again
  8. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Ha! Maybe I shouldn't get either considering my weight trajectory. 🙂 I'm about 220 now, but have been telling myself for years I need to lose about 30-40 lbs.
  9. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    I'd be hauling typical weekend warriors stuff. Lumber for small projects, mulch, trash to the dump, etc... When my kid gets a little older, I'll probably get into dirt bikes again and be hauling those around.
  10. Which Harbor Freight Trailer for the Hybrid

    Hey everybody. I know if I wanted to tow stuff, I should have gone with the ecoboost and 4k tow package. I just couldn't justify the gas penalty for and activity I'd be doing less than 5% of the time. Harbor Freight sells the right trailer for me...a cheap one. However, I'm struggling to...
  11. Bought an Available Maverick Instead of Waiting (Feel Like an Imposter)

    Jsus pretending to be the guy who originally ordered the truck. He literally called after I signed all the paperwork asking if he could rescind his cancelation. I completely felt like crap for him.
  12. Bought an Available Maverick Instead of Waiting (Feel Like an Imposter)

    3k over. But, the final price for the lariat and all the features was about 15k over than my XL retail order at MSRP.
  13. What Do I Inspect When I Pick Up My Mav?

    I wouldn't worry too much about things breaking. Yes there are lemons, but there's waaaay more vehicles that are just fine... people just don't write about 'nothing happened stories. Still, if you're looking for a list... At the dealership: 1. Have someone show you all the fluid locations and...
  14. Hybrid Shudder from electric to ICE (video uploaded)

    I've had something similar occur on mine. I don't think it's related to the TSB related to rough idle since I'm not smelling sulfur. I haven't experienced a shake as severe as yours, but it has occured at least 5 or 6 times since ownership. Always at very low speeds.
  15. What are people buying who couldn’t/wouldn’t wait any longer?

    Used truck... probably an early 2000's Taco or F250. Resell seems to stay pretty high on both of these.
  16. Bought an Available Maverick Instead of Waiting (Feel Like an Imposter)

    I hope the non-leather holds up too. She 's sitting on a blanket as soon as as she's over 20lbs.
  17. Bought an Available Maverick Instead of Waiting (Feel Like an Imposter)

    She's completely ignorant to the fact that the minivan came with old McDonald's French fries all over the floor.
  18. Bought an Available Maverick Instead of Waiting (Feel Like an Imposter)

    So last month I made the good and stupid decision to buy a cancelled retail order from a local dealer instead of waiting for my 11/15/2021 Hybrid order to get built (or not). After 4,000 miles and 30 days with the vehicle, I continue to feel like I didn't earn this purchase. Buying a 2022...
