The New York International Auto Show is being held at the Jacob Javits Center in NYC..
Press only days were Wed, Thur Mar 28, 28. It opened to the public today Fri Mar 29 and will go until Sun Apr 7.
I haven't heard anything about the MY2025 Ford Maverick Refresh being shown. www.autoblog.com...
In the early 1970s, Ford Motor Company was producing the Maverick, a compact car marketed as an affordable and efficient vehicle. However, the demand for the Maverick was not as high as Ford had anticipated, and they found themselves with a surplus of unsold cars.
To deal with this surplus...
Folks,
I haven't listened to Tim and Sarah for a while since taking delivery of my Maverick mid January.
Today I listened in and then checked their inventory... 45 Maverick XLT Hybrids in stock... Appear to be rather bare, with just a spreay in bedliner on a few... None have the XLT Luxury...
Folks,
I've owned my Maverick about 6 weeks, regularly vaccuuming it and wiping down the interior plastics/vinyls with a clean damp cloth (no cleaners).
As I was cleaning it the other day just prior to taking my inlaws to the airport, I noticed allot of damage/discoloration on the left rear...
Wednesday, we were scheduled to take deliver of our Maverick and sell our Honda CRV (private person). Thursday, I would drive down to Álamos. So, that meant crossing the border quickly to surrender the MX permit on the CRV yesterday (Wednesday) so that we could take one out on the new Maverick...
Folks,
Considering ordering the Permiter Plus directly from a Ford site. (Fairway). But nothing I see specially calls out compatability of the KN1Z-19A361-A part for MY2024 Mav Lariat EB. I've sent an inquiry out to Ford, but suspect it will take a bit to hear with everyone coming back from the...
Interesting. I ordered a Maverick 7/17/2023. Received a build date of 12/4/2023 (week of) about a month ago.
checking two sources on the Ford website, I see a different Status on each; a mismatch. For the record, I'm still assuming the later date in December, and that nothing is really happen...
Yeah, I know... Silly thread. Got a build week of 12/4 for my EcoBoost Maverick... So feel good about acquiring a few parts, especially those that will be a harder..
Obtained the EcoBoost Engine Shield with the hardware kit from a member. Brand new.. Looks great..
Found this interesting. Don't care for the location on the shirt much, but I do like the empbroidered badge.

I live in both Green Valley Arizona and Álamos Sonora. I cross the border all of the time. Becuase I use a Sentry pass, I often enter the country via the downtown Nogales crossing, right next to the train tracks that ferry Mavericks and Bronco Sports from Hermosillo Sonora to the USA.
Took a...
Ordered the Black Appearance Package for my Maverick Lariat becuase I dislike the bowling shoe interior. OK.. now on to Rims...
I like the style/shape of the 18" Wheels that is used on the Black Appearance Package (it's the 1st Edition Rim, without the clear finish of the machine surfaces, it's...
Folks,
Just curious. MY2024 Maverick EcoBoost Lariat w/ 4KTow is pretty much like a MY2023 Maverick Ecoboost Lariat w/ 4KTow + Lux + 360Pilot + 360Assist. Does that give you enough gear to add the hill descent of the FX4 package through ForScan if you purchase the console button assembly?
Was at Horne Ford in Nogales Arizona today finishing up paperwork for my MY2024 order (I placed the order remotely on 7/17 but needed to sign something else in person), when a Maverick arrived for a customer.
The customer declined delivery so it's available for sale. I would have considered it...
About 6 months ago, the number of folks complaining about Dash/Windshield creaks and rattles was significant. Many were also complaining about the thinness and quality of the paint.
However, those complaints have seemed to trail off in recent months. Just curious, those of you who have taken...
Interesting that a base model of the Hyundai Elantra exists for the Saudi Arabian market that has no infotainment system... just a radio in that spot. A super basic model... (albiet with power windows)...
Here is a photo of a Honda Ridgeline Gen1 chassis structure:
Here is a photo of the Honda Ridgeline Gen2 chassis structure:
I've seen a few photos of wrecked Mavericks undergoing repair, and it seems more similar to the H R Gen1.

Pax side:
Interesting tear down..
Yeah, I know... I'm going for the look that is opposite of what most folks want.
If I get the BAP or the FX4 package (wish both could be combined) I'll be disappointed that I have jet black wheels. I like a little contrast between the rims and the tires, so I'd prefer the rims be lighter in...
Wife and I have returned to Green Valley, AZ, USA from our winter in Álamos, Sonora, Mex. I am seeing quite a few Mavericks in parking lots in the last 2 weeks. I would estimate 8 or more in every color imaginable. However, there are still none for sale locally (Nogales, Tucson, and places...
Think I've mentioned it before, but each week now for months on end I run a series queries that covers the entire USA (with about 17 searches). You can hack the URLs and save the quieries to a set of tabs and run them each week. Took about 2 hours to setup way back in October. Bear in mind, it...
Thinking out loud.
Do these wheels (Ford Escape 18" Hyper Silver 3946 OEM Alloys available from 2013-1017) have the proper offset for a Ford Maverick?
Updated:
Maverick 18" OEM wheel has an offset of 37.5mm
Escape 18" OEM wheels are 52.5mm offset
So in practice, when these wheels are...
