  1. OK, Hear me out: strange 'fix" to odd braking problem...

    I've had my Mav about two months now, and in all that time I've been bothered by the braking, which has been nowhere near as effortlessly unnoticeable as I'm accustomed to in my work CMAX. Every single time I stopped, whether in traffic or utterly alone on the road with no one near me, the last...
  2. OMG, Textra has a Hot Pepper Red gif!

    Was texting a friend using Textra and telling her about my truck, went to gifs expecting to find some dorky little truck gif, searched for "pickup truck" and couldnt believe my eyes when a gif of a Hot Pepper Red truck - like MY truck - came up! Had to do a double, triple take to make sure my...
  3. Any Interest in a North Alabama/TN/etc Meet Up?

    Good morning, trying to see if there's any/enough interest in a North Alabama meetup, which could easily include Tennessee folks, maybe even parts of north Georgia and Mississippi? I know there's quite a few on here from North Alabama/Southern Tennessee area. Any interest, and if so any good...
  4. EGR Valve code in 2023 -- anyone had it fixed (TSB supposedly applies to 2022?)

    600 miles of ownership, I got in my truck at work, drove just 2 short miles home and shut it off, and before I got to the door I got a notice from Ford Pass with a check engine / get service message. Checked the code, the P0402 code, EGR thing. I'm aware there's a TSB (22-2493 and then 23-2059...
  5. Today's Episode of : "Your Dealer's 'Service Center' did WHAT?!!"

    On Monday, out running errands, got back in my three week old truck and had a Tire Pressure Warning, 10 pound loss in pressure suddenly. I was maybe a mile from my dealership, so pulled in and they spotted a screw in the tire, service center said it's too close to sidewall to plug, go over to...
  6. Even an old woman can install the Ford Modular Bed Liner! -- DIY instructions & tips

    So my salesman was Johnny-on-the-Spot and took personal responsibility for making sure my Ford Pass Points were on my account two short days after I took delivery of Lil Red on August 8th. Ordered the modular bedliner on a Saturday, it arrived on Wednesday and I installed it this past Friday...
  7. Door Sill Protector recommendation

    Ordered these colored door sill protectors on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/AJLOTMO-Reflective-Decoration-Accessories-Compatible/dp/B0BBMYSKM7/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8), even though I had mixed feelings about installing them, concerned about longevity for these "sticker" type things...
  8. This is NOT a small truck!

    Now, granted, I'm moving from a 2008 Ranger single cab, but MY GOD, after picking up my truck yesterday I can't get over how HUGE it feels! Interior cabin feel is enormous, cavernous in comparison even to my old Honda CR-V. Even the exterior "feels" big to me, I went to apply a quick spray wax...
  9. Lil Red is coming home! And shout out to Woody Anderson Ford

    Lil Red has arrived, picking her up tomorrow afternoon. Hybrid XLT, no add ons at all, I took the hitch off long ago to get it scheduled and because I honestly didn't need it, added it on only because at $100, why not. Scheduled for 7/25, shipped 7/27, arrived Huntsville Alabama 8/8, which seems...
  10. TIL: Helps to SIGN IN when checking the tracker

    So my truck was built on Tuesday, talked with my dealer on Wednesday and got a delivery estimate on it, got my "Built" email from Ford this morning, but when I clicked through that email to the Pizza Tracker link, it suddenly shows "Confirmed, your order will be built eventually, etc." -- the...
  11. What are your First Settings Mods recommendations?

    Okay, so my Mav is coming soon, and there have been all kinds of conversations on here about first mods, like adding the tailgate assist, tailgate letters, that kind of thing. But for the uninitiated, what do you think are the most important first settings changes to make? Like how to turn off...
  12. Tracker seemed to have updated yesterday for the May18th folks, heads up

    Just FYI to those (like me) in that big May 18th scheduling batch, looks like the tracker updated yesterday evening? My email had me scheduled week of 7/24, tracker is updated and shows week of 7/27 -- which is still the same week, so whatev. Yes, I know it can/will shift a couple more times...
  13. Am I delirious? Isn't 300a INCLUDED?

    So I occasionally click into ads I see locally for a Mav, mostly just to drool over one until mine gets built. I saw a Hot Pepper Red today at a dealer, and clicked in, and of course went to the window sticker to see how much the dealer was adding on to the MSRP. Pulled it up and it shows a...
  14. DIBL, has anyone removed storage pocket first?

    I'm going to be installing the modular bed liner when I get my truck, have watched several good videos about it, but I have a question about the side storage pocket. On all the videos I've seen, they do a cutout for the pocket and install the side panel over the existing pocket. It seems to me...
  15. Has Ford kinda abandoned the whole FITS thing?

    Picked up a simple FITS hook from my local library today, they 3D print for free (really involved prints get a small material fee), got the pattern from Thingiverse, and I know Ford initially released about 1/2 dozen CAD files, but was thinking about how there really has not been the explosion...
  16. ONLY Hybrid Mavericks being scheduled this week on 1/12/23!

    Per Tommy Brogan, only hybrids will be scheduled this week. That's... Unexpected. Has this happened before? My first instinct was Ford attempt to get a bunch of hybrid orders to see, at week end, that they'll probably NEVER be scheduled, should switch to EB?
  17. Is FordPass App "necessary"?

    Assuming I get my truck someday, and after I've linked it in the app and used my points, is there an actual reason to keep the app? I won't ever use Remote Start from the app, not really interested in another app in my life or phone if it's not terribly useful. So... is there some actual reason...
  18. Consumer Reports: Hybrid more dependable than gas

    Engadget: Consumer Reports finds hybrid cars are more reliable than gas-only models. https://www.engadget.com/consumer-reports-hybrid-reliability-ev-phev-170003341.html?src=rss
  19. How hard is it to move rear license plate mount?

    For those of us furiously removing the constrained hitch: how hard is it to move the license plate to center? I know the light would have to be moved, how involved is that. Is it something the dealer should be able to do as part of dealer prep?
  20. Next Color Suggestion for Ford

    I know ya'll are crazy for the Eruption green to be included, but I would REALLY like to see this color on a Mav. When they first introduced Maverick and I read about a "Cyber Orange" option, I got all excited...only to find out it was more yellow than orange! I want a pure, good orange...
