  1. Flat towing a maverick

    Thanks. I understood for some reason the hybrid was capable of being flat towed but not the ecoboost. Still, don't know why. Totally different transmissions in hybrid ‘Ecvt’ vs eco boost conventional automatic tranny. Most automatic transmissions today require the lubrication coming from the...
  2. Cover for Wiper Well

    I like both of the above ideas, but the garage/carport is not feasible for me, or moving to the southern U.S. I've used a full windshield cover, but putting putting on/off was more of a pain than digging the snow out of the wiper well. I LIKE the pool noodle suggestion. Just brush the...
  3. Minor regret not getting an F-150 class truck

    Yes , A rental truck or trailer. Probably less $$ than the added car payment and even gas for month. You didn’t say how far the move is. 10, 100, 1000 miles. PERSONALY I wouldn’t hesitate to pull 2500 lb 20 miles or so on relatively level terrain. Ken
  4. Canadians can now buy Chinese EVs [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS & INSULTING BEHAVIOR]

    Not for me. Not just because of where they made but because it is an EV. We don't have the infastructure for EVs. Our community only has 2 public charging points and my house would need a total electrical upgrade to accomodate an EV. Ironically I just got my 23 Maverick Hybrid back from...

  6. Gripe with Mabett

    First of all, other than having a couple of there products, I have nothing to do with Mabett. As we all know this id the Christmas/New Years holiday season. Friday was the Boxing Day holiday, a statuary holiday in many areas, then Saturday and Sunday and up coming New Years. Most likely...
  7. Generic FITS "male" insert?

    If I remember correctly, lift the back seat and I think there is a tag that you can scan to get ideas and possibly get the needed instructions for 3D printing. (way beyond my skill level). As said before, the fits plug is available on different sites. Ken
  8. refueling from a jerry can ?

    All Mavericks are shipped with them, the funnell,auxillary wiring harness. My dealer leaves these items on the seat, so when taking delivery you know what's there and can store them where you want to, not where the prep person thinks is a good place. Then the question, what's this? that I...
  9. Remote start not working out of nowhere

    HeyBales, it's definitely not Roman (the cat), but as I mentioned in another post, a brand name fob battery and not using the remote start as much, has definitely extended the battery life. Ken
  10. Remote start not working out of nowhere

    Icegradnor, I think one reason that my fob battery died so fast was the new 'novelty' of having a remote start and old school thinking of getting the oil circulating. Also the spare fob hasn't been used since I checked when I took delivery). XLT , with turn key to start and NO proximity...
  11. Remote start not working out of nowhere

    Have you received any messages for 'battery saver' or 'deep sleep' issues. If so that would explain the App not being able to remote start the truck. The truck automatically cuts power to certain 12v items to save power for starting the truck, activating the necessary relays etc. My key...

  13. Are Canadians going to stop vacationing in Florida?

    I would without hestitation, but won't becuase of personal reasons. My neighbours 5th wheel RV is parked in the snow for the winter. I went to Detroit last spring for a family funeral, Serveral friends questioned my decision to cross the border, all because of perceived unfounded...
  14. Curt 31006 Hitch Spare Tire Carrier Install

    My memory just flashed. A 'Continental Kit' from the 60s. A vinyl or fibreglass cover? That's the nice thing about the Maverick, very easy to customize, mod, Make it your own. Ken
  15. Hybrid battery drain issue / ACCM update (as of 11/8/25) -- Latest info from a tech's perspective

    Thanks for the update. It sounds like you and my dealer tech are on the same page. After the one repair, Tech followed the SSM, replaced battery, I was still getting the 'battery saver' and 'deep sleep' notifications. After another trip, they advised me that FORD were working on the issue...
  16. Crystal clear widow cleaning hack or a big mistake?

    I asked the detail manager at my dealership what they used. Invisible Glass, it is meant for automotive use, do NOT use regular household window cleaner, they have ammonia and other chemicals that will eventually take the tint out of your aftermarket window tints. He said the to spray...

  18. Truck swallowed fuse 11.

    Time to buy a new fuse, probably less time than taking the maverick apart to find it. Just get an assortment or extras for the next time. Just like insurance good to have, hopefully never needed. Ken
  19. Behind the rear seat carseat brackets

    a 77 yr old here. Only travel a couple of times a month, but the car seat a absolute necessity, " Yes, that is the anchor I am referring to. Both carseats that we have for our carpet crawlers have a button to loosen the tether strap, but it is hidden behind the seatback so that when you...
