Towing isn't the only thing a truck does. I use my Maverick to haul Home Depot purchases and camping gear. I suspect the Fathom will do that just as well.

I have towed; I do not tow often. To me, the tow package is like owning a hammer. I don't use it all the time, but I'm glad I have it when I need it. I do haul quite a bit. So, I do get truck use out of my truck.

Don't discount the possibility that it is a drug-bust car. I know of a city that has a police Corvette specifically for that reason. In many districts, once the police confiscate a vehicle as part of a drug bust, it belongs to them.

I use CarPlay and it has everything I need on it. I don't play with my phone when driving. I do 100% agree the built-in charger is crap. I just plug it in with ye olde USB-C cable.

Top 3 that were new to me or Maverick-specific: Lane centering. My prior Ford had adaptive cruise control, but the lane centering is as close to auto-drive on highways as you can get without auto-drive. Intelligent AWD. In the circumstances where it is needed, it kicks in. While towing a...

This version worked for me. I will say that the airbags will only deploy if you are going a certain speed. My wife T-boned a Nissan in 2020, and her 2008 Escape did not fire the airbags, but it did fire the seatbelt tensioners. Due to the music, it is hard to hear the pedals (which is a me...

After reloading my browser, the video is still not working. The reason we want to watch is that most of us have dealt with people claiming X when it was really Y. If it is a legitimate brake system flaw, then we want to 100% support Ford in fixing it. However, it only takes a two-second search...

First off, I'm glad you at least walked away. That is a huge bruise! It's amazing how easily we can get injured by others' mistakes. Second, you will understand if I want you to not get near my truck. Your track record being what it is....

I live in Central Alabama. The A/C can turn off?

Well, at least we can park in "Green Vehicle" parking...

Most people assume my Maverick is a hybrid. Given you can now get AWD and 4K on the hybrid, the benefit of the EB has decreased. I"m not surprised Ford is removing it from some trims. That, and the Fathom keeps their AFE higher so they can put a V8 back in the F-150. Especially since they don't...

I will say this one is a touch less responsive than the buttons. So, I prefer the buttons on mine over the touchscreen on the Expedition. That said, I'm glad Ford is bringing this back as a wired option. The keypad is one of the best parts of buying a Ford over other brands.

That Ford Same. I don't want dealer stickers, and fortunately, my dealer primarily uses a license plate frame you can remove. Admittedly, some manufacturers use large branding when it is not necessary. The new Nissan Murano uses massive letters for some reason. That said, I doubt people will...

Last time I had it rotated, the truck seemed to know, as the tire display showed nothing for the first couple of miles, but then it found everything.

Maybe it's just me, but if I could afford a $100,000 travel trailer, I don't think I'd tow it with only a Maverick.

I was asking @WOLFBOX when we could expect a bed rack that fits the Maverick. I'm greatly enjoying the cover and recently picked up one of their pocket blowers. I have been satisfied with the quality of both. They have them for larger trucks, and I'm curious when they will make one for the Mav.

Wife keeps a step stool at the rear of the Expedition. Any word on when the bed rack for the Maverick is coming?

No water leakage. I mean, the tailgate itself isn't exactly watertight. However, I would consider my new tonneau just as watertight as my soft-rolling one, if not a little more. Honestly, I like the fact I can use it as a table better than the soft.

Pretty neat setup.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say, yes, it is totaled. I think once you are hit so hard that the rear wheel is ripped off, you won't be able to buff that out. Glad you and your wife walked away from that.
