It was the Continental that came with the truck originally. Thinking about replacing them soon but it's fix a flat kit for now.

I got a flat on Monday. That was the first time I've had to drop a spare from the underbody, which I think is a slick way to store it. The factory torque on the lug nuts was almost unmovable by hand, but I did get it after a few attempts.

The real benefit is that it frees up room for your right knee to move around. Every time I drive my wife's CRV, my knee rubs up against the stick and it makes me think I am in a cage. I'm more free to move my legs in the Maverick.

First hybrid, first truck, and I'd have to say Yes. It's been a great vehicle for the last year. I go to the gas station once a month - that's definitely part of the convenience. I'm sure I'd enjoy driving the Ecoboost too, but I'd lose that convenience.

Put some reflective tape on this & people will steer clear. https://www.amazon.com/Apex-Traction-Aluminum-500-lb-Capacity/dp/B01M8L119S/ref=sr_1_1?crid=M7697TTCXA15&keywords=apex+hitch+step&qid=1696001398&sprefix=apex+hitch+step%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-1

It's a good question, maybe one of the Lariat owners can answer it. In my Honda, sometimes my wife would drop me off so I can pick up the take out order, she does a lap around the block and I realize the key fob is still in my pocket. The car will beep at you, but it still runs fine.

Can't speak to that, XLT here so the key stays in the ignition.

I thought I would have no use for the keypad before the truck arrived. I use it every day now. Useful when your hands are mostly full, and it is easier to punch a code than put things down and dig into your pocket. Or when you are keyless and already putzing around near your truck and suddenly...

It's a different calculus for 2024. You're probably better off with the XL. In addition to the small upgrades, for '23 you had a much better chance of actually receiving a hybrid if it was XLT, thanks to the crazy allocation system.

Yes, two things helped to solve this issue for me: 1. Get a usb-c to usb-c male to male cable. The truck's smaller port gives me fewer issues in general. 2. Unlock and wake up your phone screen right before you connect it.

If you press the 7 & 9 simultaneously on the keypad, the doors will lock. I could see a situation where I lean back on the door and inadvertently do this. Otherwise, it's a great feature when you don't have your keys handy.

I find that the higher MPG you achieve, the more discrepancy there is between the truck's calculation and my calculation at the pump. The truck said about 49mpg on one tank and I calculated 46, mostly suburban/country driving. 3mpg difference. Recently I did a 100% highway trip; the truck said...

I also had a brake issue this morning, and do experience the shudder occasionally. I crawled to a stop sign this morning and the truck jerked to a halt. I've gotten used to the regen brakes, but this was way different. I thought I hit something/someone from the noise.

That's fantastic for highway, well done (y) My commute home from work is a country road, speed limit is 35 - 45. I finally broke 70mpg coming home last night with eco mode. Slippery mode is not quite as good for this particular drive.

I experienced the audio popping today. It was only apparent on the bluetooth & android auto connections. I tried unplugging, turning off/on the truck, resetting the phone. Finally I did a "Master Reset" on the infotainment system. Everything works as normal now.

Putting mine to use with this fly fishing rod holder. Not sure if this helps your situation, but you can slide a 1/4" plexiglass window directly into the existing tract. I drilled a hole to fit the rod holder, mostly for theft/security purposes. I didn't want my rear window exposed and wide...

That's the new XLT Mullet Package. Business in the front, pleathery party in the back.

Try using the original charging cable that came with your phone, and have your phone unlocked with the display on when you connect. Doing these two things seem to make it work much better for me.

I call him Reggie. When we're feeling classy I call him Reginald.

Of the 4 you mentioned I have not experienced any on my 2023. There is a thread on here about a shudder when coasting and the engine switches between electric and combustion. I think I felt a minor version of that the other day - like a lighter version of hitting the grooved pavement at the...
