Agree 100%. Fun world it's becoming.

A quick search suggests nobody is really doing this on hybrids. My guess would be due to hybrids having notoriously weak CV axles, particularly early models. Not sure if Ford has changed the suspension on the hybrids. There just aren't good options for lifting a hybrid without spending a bunch...

I did the same thing shortly after buying my truck. Sold my steelies to a member here on MTC. I ditched the Bronco center caps and replaced with Ford.

I was one of the very few who had a Maverick in my area. I ordered in July of 2021 and took delivery that December. I recall people looking at me like I was driving a Ferrari or some other semi-rare car. People would ask me about it all the time. Now they're everywhere. No one even glances my...

Wow! I can't imagine having that much discretionary income to piss away on vehicles. Must be nice.

Thanks. I was not clear on how the base AWD systems differ from EB vs Hybrid. I'll check out the link....

Pardon my ignorance, but is there a difference in base (non-FX4, Tremor, etc.) AWD systems between hybrid and gas Mavericks? Am I to assume the AWD system in my '22 XL EB would perform like the "old" Maverick in the video?

I had a gas smell when I first got my '22. I ended up removing my underside shield and have no issues now. You may want to add some holes in your shield. Ford had a TSB about this back in '22. But it was for fuel smell. I've not read anyone having an oil smell.

Project Farm did a test of various ceramic sprays and Turtle Wax was among the best performers at any price.

Looks super nice! Where did you score the black oval BTW?

Nah, hit so hard the paint fell off. 😂

Probably overkill for most, but a solid recommendation nonetheless. 👌

I'm behind the knowledge curve on this. I thought only the hybrids had CV issues. No?

No need to upgrade your master cylinder. Ceramic pads are very durable and create less brake dust but can be noisy. You may want to use a quality semi-metallic pad. You will have more brake dust but better bite with less noise. For rotors, you could utilize drilled or slotted or a combination...

I said the Intercooler was a weak link. Not sure how you interpret otherwise. 🤔 Also, I never said the brakes were inadequate. Not sure how you interpret otherwise. 🤔 I simply mentioned I had upgraded mine.

In my opinion, the weak link in the Maverick's towing capability is the Intercooler. It is simply too small. I replaced mine with Buschur's within the first few hundred miles after I purchased my truck. I also upgraded my pads and rotors.

Pointless digital slop this next generation of car designers and buyers seem to appreciate for some reason. 🤷

Battery could be bad. Mine was replaced under warranty. Have it tested.

Unnecessary. But proceed as you wish.

At the very least you should check your fluid level. My trans went at 38K.
