From an article on fordauthority.
“According to Dawn McKenzie, Ford Trucks communications manager, the 2025 Ford Maverick features the latest Ford hybrid transmission – the HF55. The HF55 gearbox has a higher torque capacity than the HF45, which was previously used in the 2022-2024 Ford...
The 2025 has a different transmission. Not sure if the axles are different too. They might just ride it out waiting for all the warranties to expire on the 1st gen’s.
I’ve been considering using a usb CD player as well. I take long trips through remote areas pretty regularly. Ever since I upgraded my stereo, sonic signature changes from audio compression has reared its ugly head even with lossless streaming services like Qobuz due to the fact CarPlay and...

My coworker’s alternator seized up on his 2013 Lexus is350. He was charged $1,400 to replace it. Granted if he did it himself it would have been under $200. That being said I rebuilt my Prius high voltage battery last year for about $200. It’s usually the cells in the middle that give out...

I got these cause I liked the small footprint and the water tight harness. Unfortunately the lenses weren’t protected and got some scratches during shipping. Nothing major I can’t polish out...
Considering it has the same tow hitch and brakes as the 4k, I’m sure the limiting factors are the transmission and cooling system. But that probably only comes in to play going up hill or higher speeds.
Nice write up. The only thing the XLT has over the XL in my book is the power mirrors ( my wife is a foot shorter than me) and the rear armrest for my kids. Initially I went for the “best” AT tires out and got some 245/70/17 KO2s. At 47lbs a tire I’m down to 34mpg. I’m stepping down in size and...
Anyone find a fix yet? I pass the LA river in 3 different places that smell like sewage on my commute to work. I’d rather not pump that through my air vents.
So I got a call from the dealership saying my truck was ready to pickup. I asked what happened to confirming my order and that when I spoke to them in November told them I wanted to change a couple options. They said Ford was not allowing them to make any changes to the block of 14 hybrid hold...
