  1. All Hybrid & Eco Models - Transport Canada Compliant Usage of Centre Console Cubby

    I’m pretty sure that I saw this regulated in the federal Motor Vehicles Act. Something about being able to reach your Timbits without having to take your eyes off the road.
  2. Tremor with 245/70R17 Toyo Open Country AT3 = Highly Recommended

    TLDR: I love this setup. I am more concerned with practicality than looks, so I was kind of reluctant to swap out the perfectly adequate stock 235/65s for something bigger. But I really wanted a little extra lift, and wider profile as I am clumsy and tend to bash rims. And yeah, it looks...
  3. Another vote for tailgate pad + hard rollup tonneau for frequent bike shuttlers

    One of the main reasons I bought a Maverick was for the ability to throw four mountain bikes quickly into the bed for the quick 5-45 minute rides to the trailheads from our place. Happy to say that the Fox Overland Midsize (which is a rebranded RaceFace T2 as they are the same company) fits very...
  4. CANADA Falken Wildpeak A/T3W 235/65R17 (OEM A/T) CAD$600

    Set of 4 takeoff Wildpeak A/T3W 235/65R17 OEM all-weather, all-terrain tires from my Tremor as I am upsizing. Located in Vancouver BC - can pickup or dropoff. Less than 2500km with no off-road, $600 Canadian for the set. Photos are on my rim, but they are coming off tomorrow and will be unmounted.
  5. Stealth DSP-Tuned Audio Upgrade with Before/After RTA

    I love building completely stealth systems that maximize audio quality but only use stock controls, locations, or completely unused space in the vehicle. Commensurate with the economy nature of the Maverick, this one will have components that are definitely a league above OEM, but not...
  6. Eco & Sport Mode activation on Tremor Maverick - Review and Engine Sound Comparison

    All SDMs can be activated on the Tremor, and there is no difference in Forscan programming versus a regular Maverick. Just follow this YT tutorial and it will work fine. Connect, go to module programming ABS Module configuration (easy mode) SDM - ABS flip from enabled to disabled SDM - Eco flip...

  9. Upgraded stock console phone holder to a wired CarPlay mount

    Originally had my iPhone by the screen cubby via an AkroHD adapter and RAM mounts, but I was unhappy with the stability and found the location distracting, since I never use the phone itself with CarPlay. I actually like the factory location but HATE having to mess with plugs and wires when...
  10. Yes, the XLT Tremor gets Lariat taillights

    This was mentioned in passing on a couple other threads, but not called out specifically. I really wanted the signature LED lighting front and back, but went XLT for other reasons. So even though Ford doesn’t call it out (because … Ford) I am thrilled to confirm that XLT Tremors, along with XLT...
  11. Maverick Tremor vs. Tacoma SR5 review, back-to-back for a week

    After taking delivery of my Tremor earlier this month, I travelled to Colorado and had the opportunity to drive a new 2023 Taco SR5 4x4 crew cab for a week, tackling a combination of mountain highway driving, basic dirt roads, and urban commuting. My random thoughts: The Tacoma sorely needs...
  12. Obligatory "My Tremor is Here!" post and first impressions

    Six months was long enough - I salute the folks with hybrid orders, or just receiving their First Editions, and their next-level patience. 24 hour first impressions: Driving refinement - pretty damn good for a cheap truck. There is some wind, road, and especially engine noise, but it's not too...
  13. Daily Motor Tremor Review - Off-road Performance Exceeds Expectations

    Some good, spirited off-road driving here that comes to the same conclusion as the Car & Driver editorial - close to being a perfect little rally truck if it had a DSC kill switch and maybe some paddle shifters. They even manage a little bit of drifting in the snow. They specifically call out...
  14. Tremor Maverick POV driving video with binaural sound

    Apparently, this guy does POV videos of vehicles with binaural sound - I guess to capture the feel of being in them. So if you're still waiting for your Tremor or other eco Mav, and want to feel the feels of slamming the tailgate, hearing that direct injection tackle some snowy dirt roads, or...
  15. Tremor as a Jack Russell Terrier: Delightful New Maverick Review from the WSJ

    Some of the lines are hilarious in a new Tremor review from the WSJ. "Second, with respect, why the hell aren’t more of your pickups like the Maverick—affordable, approachable, applicable, and that’s just the As? The Maverick with the Tremor package is a little knucklehead, a daily delight, as...
  16. Maverick is the Autotrader.ca 2023 Best Overall Truck, Dethroning the F-150

    It knocks the perennial winner F-150 off its perch for the first time ever, by receiving the most votes for any truck regardless of size or class. https://www.autotrader.ca/awards/20230216/2023-best-overall-truck-ford-maverick/
  17. Sumitomo Encounter AT

    Anyone give these a try? I’m at the tire shop getting new shoes for my Volvo, and saw these on the rack - they are a good looking tire, well reviewed, mountain snowflake, and seem perfect for a FX4 or Tremor that gets wintry weather - very similar to the Wildpeaks. For some reason they don’t...
  18. Maverick is the Cars.com 2023 Pickup Truck of the Year for 2nd straight year

  19. It's (Almost) Alive! Canadian Tremor window sticker

    My XLT Tremor switched into production yesterday, and this just showed up. I have heard of maybe one or two Tremors built and on the way up here already, but I don't think we've seen a sticker with NRC fuel mileage numbers yet. Excited to have mine get built next week! Edit: Grrrrr, looks...
  20. "Scheduled to Week" added to the Ford Tracker?

    I don't recall if this step is usually shown on the Tracker, and couldn't find a similar screenshot with a cursory forum search. Is this a new feature getting rolled out, or just my imagination? If the former, it might partially explain all the screwy data the page has been throwing lately...
