  1. Does anyone have a GPS tracker on their Maverick?

    If so, what one ? We want to put one on my GF's Mav right away ! A little late for my Prius 😢 It got stolen from in front of the house last Sunday. We found it the next day, completely stripped of traction battery, (probably the cat converter... hard to tell the way it was parked and a flat...
  2. Tire pressure for best MPG ?

    I was pretty surprised that the tires on the Maverick (Continentals ?... Are these put on all stock Mav's?) had a max pressure of 51 lbs ! These are certainly not put on compact cars... In any case, I checked the pressure, and 2 we're at 42 lbs, and 2 were 44 lbs. Thinking about 48 lbs each ...
  3. SCORE ! The Maverick will darn near be paid for ;)

    So we took my GF's 2016 Kia Soul to Car Max yesterday (after I spent about 6 hrs of detailing on it) and holy $#!# ! I mean yes, it only had 29K miles on it, was in excellent condition inside and out.... but still, it was more than 4 yrs old.... and you know the whole thing about cars losing...
  4. A few MPG and Eco mode questions ?

    So my GF is on her second tank, and is only getting 36'ish MPG. Granted, she had been driving it in the "Normal" mode. I just switched that to ECO, but is that likely to help to any noticeable degree ? This has been a pretty standard mix of freeway / city driving. Any suggestions on how to get...
  5. How do we get Google maps...

    On our Maverick screen ? I found one video that talked about using Apple car play, which our phones are not Apple iPhones. But do we need to connect our phone by a USB cable ? That would be a problem, as our cables are not data cables, but for power only (magnetic... and the greatest thing...
  6. Looking for a tri-fold, hard top bed cover.

    I want to get it for my GF's new Maverick, as a Christmas present. She already knows it will probably be late, but she is pretty excited about her new Maverick, and I think anything I get for it, she will be really happy with :) I've seen a couple different ones in the $1000 range. Anybody buy...
  7. But here's a big question ???

    So most of you have probably read about our ordeal, being drug through the mud for 6 hrs, to finally get the original deal (MSRP) that we were offered. Okay so a friend of mine asked me a very fair question..... "WHY would this dealer come all the way down from $38K to $23K if this truck was in...
  8. Still can't get a straight answer from Ford

    first off, I'm sorry, but it freaking kills me when I call by phone, to talk to a Ford representative with a technical question, and they connect me with some lady, most likely at home in her living room, and maybe changing her kids diapers, or feeding the dog, while she tries to answer my...
  9. GF got her confirmation email, but I haven't got mine ?

    And if you will remember, I had asked if my GF might be able to get the one I ordered instead of me, since I will not be getting mine ? I'm thinking we should go down and talk to them about this ahead of time... Oh, and do you think hers will be ready sooner than mine, because she did not add a...
  10. Okay, max amperage draw for the Hybrid ?

    Do we have an answer yet ? I even called Ford Motor Company a couple months ago, and they still couldn't tell me anything, except to check back soon. Okay, so now that they are on the road, surely this info has been released. It's funny, yesterday morning I had made a post asking what was the...
  11. Do you think they will let my GF buy mine ?

    So my GF and I had went in and (with no money down) both ordered a Maverick several weeks ago. Right from the start I was only about 30% sure I'd end up buying mine, and now I'm sure I will not. Anyway, now we have both gotten emails that confirm our trucks are being built, and will be shipped...
  12. Who's going to get the first Maverick ???

    So, is there going to be anybody with priority status ? I mean like a big name YouTuber, or an athlete, or an Actor ? Or will it just be total luck of the draw ? Or, will a dealer get one somewhere and start showing it off for a day or two before it gets sold ? And the $10K question... On what...
  13. I'm not in a position to be pressured 🙂

    So the dealership called me today and said, they forgot to get a $100 deposit from my GF and I. My response... "Well we are not $100 sure we want them" 😀 lol The dealer kind of choked up for a second, then came back and said, don't worry about it. We will call you when they come in. I told him...
  14. Why I'm not getting it, but my GF is...

    {this must be one of those rare times in my life, when I actually have a bunch of different things to base my decision on... instead of just the usual three, tired, hungry, horny :) Maybe this is what my GF goes through on a daily basis > She usually has 57 things swirling around in her head...
  15. Went and saw a Maverick in person today...

    And it looked fantastic. So we actually built and ordered two of them, no money down, and no obligations. The dealer actually told me, he hoped we bought them, but even if not, us ordering them was about the only way they could get them sent to their lot, as Ford was only sending out pre...
  16. You want some color choices ;)

    I've been threatening to do this for years. So many cool aspects about it. For one thing, its much more DIY friendly than paint. And even if you did screw it up, it is 100% peelable. For another, the combinations of base colors, color shifting peals metallic, clear satin, or semi gloss (gloss is...
  17. Chevy's new Mini truck !

    I guess they didn't want to be outdone ! 😆😄😃 Lol
  18. What headlights in XLT ?

    Maybe Im just overlooking this info ? Sure hope they are LED's, and if not, then at least a standard size. LED's are cheap and easy to add to most vehicles aftermarket, so long as they are one of the few standard sizes.
  19. For those of you without hybrid experience

    Okay, yes. Hybrids get "slightly better" mileage in town, than on the freeway. But I just really want to stress something here > The only reason this gets so much attention, is that every ICE vehicle produced over the last 100 years, got better mileage on the freeway. So this makes it a big...
  20. If interior sound noise level is important to you, Sound Deadening (with Dynamat / Noico)!!!

    Its really not that hard to do, or expensive, its just a knuckle ripping PITA ! You will have to remove door panels and the roof liner. One nice thing, in a new car, all of the plastic clips are new, and pliable. In an older vehicles, these are much more prone to snapping. Its not important to...
