  1. Article - Next gen Maverick is very important to Ford

    I've been saying for years the Maverick is the gateway drug to the F-150. Buy a Maverick and realize the convenience of a truck. When you need a larger vehicle, you get a larger truck.
  2. adaptive cruise control runaway problem

    Only time I have had it exceed the set speed was when the terrain changed. Basically, it had shifted down to get up to speed just in time for the ground to start going down so it overshot. But it usually catches itself and slows back down.
  3. Is 4k Towing Package Worth It

    Easy recommend. As others have said, better to have it since you cannot upgrade after the fact.
  4. First Sight! $30k Midsize EV Pickup Prototype

    Looks like an EV Maverick. We'll see what the price and range look like.
  5. Review - Wolfbox SmartSlide Electric Retractable Bed Cover

    Update: After speaking with Wolfbox, it seems there is a way to change the lighting mode without taking the phone out. While you need to use the app to set up the alternative lighting mode, simply hold down the light button on the cover to switch to the other light mode.
  6. Now Ford is offering mobile service?

    My dealer has gone all in on mobile service for the past few years. Given I live a mile and a half from the dealership, it is a win for both of us. I don't have to wait at the dealership and they spend very little coming to me.
  7. Consensus on preferred engine oil?

    Do oil changes. That in and of itself will do more for your engine than the flavor.
  8. Ford Issues Do-Not-Drive Advisory for Certain 2021-2026 Maverick; Owners Urged to Contact Dealerships Immediately (June 1, 2026)

    Given it is less than 1% over five years, it makes me wonder if it was the parts manufacturer that discovered the potential issue. Like a manager finally saw a resource wiping off the extra grease that was there on purpose and so they had to let Ford know that one employee had been doing...
  9. Ford Issues Do-Not-Drive Advisory for Certain 2021-2026 Maverick; Owners Urged to Contact Dealerships Immediately (June 1, 2026)

    For context, this is only 0.5% of all vehicles made over six years. This is only 4,700 vehicles. Last month that factory made 30,000 vehicles. Honestly, the fact Ford was able to find a common denominator is pretty amazing.
  10. Review - Wolfbox SmartSlide Electric Retractable Bed Cover

    The only thing that really required two people was lifting it to install. Honestly, I think my daughter made me take a touch longer because I watched her figure stuff out and only stepped in when teenage girl strength couldn't finish the job.
  11. Rain-X windshield washer fluid - yes or no?

    I have used Rain-X windshield washer fluid in all of my vehicles since forever. Never an issue with the level sensor.
  12. Review - Wolfbox SmartSlide Electric Retractable Bed Cover

    I want to start by thanking @WOLFBOX for the SmartSlide Electric Retractable Bed Cover I recently won via a forum contest. When they contacted me for a mailing address, they asked that I provide a post outlining my installation and thoughts. Since they were giving me a $2,000 bed cover for free...
  13. Maintenance and What Breaks Warranty?

    Important Caveat: I work with computers for a living.... The K&N filter will not void the warranty. However, it actually sucks at dust prevention. Given that you own a hybrid, I wouldn't bother. The whole point of the hybrid is to reduce the amount of time you run the engine, so using a loose...
  14. Auto hold

    I never use it. I like being able to lift my foot off the brake and have the truck start rolling. Almost 30 years of muscle memory on that one. Wife loves it, however.
  15. [Quick Survey] If you were designing the perfect windshield wiper for your truck, what would you improve first?

    Honest answer: something that is effective at removing bug guts rather than just smearing them.
  16. The robots are officially coming for tire shop jobs... 🤖🚗

    Return on investment. The robot, operator, and maintenance still need to be cheap enough to justify using it over minimum wage high schoolers.
  17. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

    I haven't used one since I was in the Army. Honestly, I usually just do 75 in a 70. Cop buddy of mine says they won't even put down their coffee for anyone under 10 MPH over unless they appear wreckless.
  18. Co-pilot 360 - how much do you use it?

    All the time when on interstate. Not too useful driving through the city. But I feel CP-360 is the lowest thing it should have. I honestly love the BlueCruise in the wife's Expedition.
  19. Toyota CEO confirms: RAV4-based Unibody Truck is coming for the Maverick!

    Vaporware until it happens. We'd all be rich if we had a nickel for every post that claimed this over the years. I will reserve judgment until it is actually announced with a delivery date.
  20. 🚀 Giveaway Time: Wolfbox SmartSlide Electric Tonneau Cover! 🚀

    Wow! I'd been camping with the scouts all weekend and just now saw this. Thanks; I never win things.
