  1. TMS bed crossbars

    Sorry just saw this. Yeah from Amazon. Made sure they had the same threading as the bolt. Setup works great
  2. Rented a Santa Cruz

    I've had my Maverick for about 4 months now. Interior refinement of the Santa Cruz is better. But the controls, menus, and dials more intuitive on Maverick. I put a rack and cover on Maverick, and feel it is a good fit for a smaller truck. I keep my fishing gear in the back, and it doesn't feel...
  3. What questions to ask the dealership as we wait?

    Priority code matters within the dealer. If there are other orders, that puts you equal or behind them. Asking them to lower you to a lower number couldn't hurt your chances, but being a higher number could. It is a very real possibility you won't get built this year. Latest data from Ford...
  4. If Ford had planned the Maverick

    So why are you patronizing them? Just buy something else if it's so awful.
  5. Turn Off visual seat belt indicator

    It'll turn off once seat belts are buckled (after about 45 seconds or so). Drives me nuts that it won't go away when I'm parked and unbuckle. I've literally turned the truck off and back on to get it to go away.
  6. Omg! Carvana just upped thier offer from $25k to $28k …

    For some reason Carvana doesn't generate a price for mine. I've had it for 3 months would think they could process.
  7. Would you accept this custom order?

    I'd stop screwing around and go get the truck in my hands. If they are open today be there when they open. If not, do that tomorrow. Otherwise when you finally decide to pull the trigger you may find its gone. It's not the best deal ever, but for Florida and this market it isn't bad by a long...
  8. Lucky or Dealer Scam?

    They can't order anything. Probably keeping an eye open for cancelled orders across their network. May be MSRP but I bet there are mandatory dealer installed items.
  9. Collision Alert - does it apply brakes automatically?

    I've had it go off a few times when a vehicle was making a right. Wasn't even close to an issue. Once I had it go off when I had the Adaptive Cruise Control on. Vehicles were slowing, ACC started to slow, then red flash and sound. I was like "Well brake more dummy". It was a harder brake than I...
  10. Maverick A/C is 🥶

    Yep, noticed it too. Here in Houston I put it up to 72 on low Auto setting. Still quite cool. I imagine I'll need to adjust how it blows but it does its job for sure.
  11. Ford lane centering beats Toyota (my Mav vs. CH-R rental)

    Ford's centering as well as ACC are much better than Toyota, Honda, Nissan, or Dodge/Jeep. Hyundai and Mazda are the only ones that come close (of the non luxury manufacturers). Holding position, adjusting speeds when vehicle nerves within zone ahead, and ability to do very low speeds are some...
  12. Ordering With Multiple Dealerships

    I understand Ford's system. It's not rocket science. Not liking the system and not understanding the system are two different things.
  13. Ordering With Multiple Dealerships

    Ford has no reason to care. They build a truck that gets sold either way. It's up to the dealers to make policy to handle it (like charging a deposit). Dealers have no reason to stop it because the more orders the better. It hurts other buyers only, and is selfish IMO. But it is what it is.
  14. Kayak rack options

    Happy with my setup. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/tms-bed-crossbars.28583/
  15. Experience of tonneau / no tonneau

    Spray in and tonneau cover. The spray on protects, but also keeps things from sliding around. I am glad I have it, and thinks it looks better than a painted bed as well. Got a soft roll cover. Keep things protected and out of sight. Happy with the setup.
  16. "first right of refusal" dealership sold my order without ever contacting me

    I could see the argument for price increase over previous. Also any private offer. But what is your basis for saying you are owed the market adjustment? Typically in contracts you can't sue for hypothetical profits. You'd also would likely need to establish that was agreed to. That is a very...
  17. "first right of refusal" dealership sold my order without ever contacting me

    For what damages? Clearly OP could get the deposit back. Potentially lost opportunity cost on the money (say 10%?). Beyond that, what case do they have for recovery of damages?
  18. Ridiculous markup!!

    Well, it is a 50% markup. It's crazy. But since a poster above said they didn't try it on their order, sounds like it may only be for vehicles on the lot. While I am not a fan of the markup, and I wouldn't pay it myself, I don't question their ethics on this. They can ask anything they want...
  19. "first right of refusal" dealership sold my order without ever contacting me

    Maybe you should take the unwillingness of the lawyer as a sign. The case is a dog unfortunately... Likelihood of winning the case for any significant damages is low. I'd do the demand letter from a lawyer personally. That may make the dealer know you are serious enough to get them to settle...
  20. Which extended warranty plan and when should I purchase?

    I bought the premium care warranty. If you're going to be covered for a price, pay the little more for all the way. I got the $100 deductible. It was like $1500 for 8 year 100k. They take points as well so it took about $200 and I didn't need any accessories from Ford direct. I didn't get the...
