  1. Rust on any older Mavericks?

    There is body rust on yours, you just can't see it yet. Vehicle rust starts on the assembly line.
  2. Rust on any older Mavericks?

    Don't worry about other people's rust, worry about yours. The day you drive it off the lot, find a local undercoater who uses either Fluid Film, WoolWax or Surface Sheild. Do it again next Spring, then yearly touchups every Fall.
  3. What's your favorite car wash?

    I live in Canada and I don't wash my vehicle at all in the Winter, but I use this all Summer.
  4. B'laster 16-SS Surface Shield Aerosol, 12 oz

    I've been in the undercoating racket for a few years. S.S. is the newest Lanolin based undercoating to the market, along with Fluid Film and Wool Wax. All three are great products but have slightly different 'personalities'. Yes, its DIY, as long as you can get your vehicle up in the air and...
  5. Who uses a “Foam Cannon” for pressure washers?

    Ya, I was mislead too. You can't just foam your vehicle, rinse it off and have a washed car. You still have to wash it by hand. Cannons are basically a toy.
  6. Quality of Spray in liner from factory?

    My Ranger's factory liner is thin in spots, I can see paint through pinhole sized holes where it was sprayed thin....and it's peeling in one spot.....I'm guessing they don't sand/scuff the paint before spraying it. That said, it's better than a plastic drop in one. Those should be banned IMO.

  8. Say you had the cash to buy a Maverick outright and not have to make payments.

    Get it financed, but tell the finance person you want a no penalty charge if you pay it off early. After you make the first payment, then pay it off. That way you help your credit rating, and pay off the loan.
  9. What is the total profit for a Maverick?

    I don't know exact dollar amounts or margins, but I do know a scary story told to me my cousin who worked at a Ford dealership back in the 90's. I can't speak for the system today, I know times have have changed since the 90's, but I can't imagine things have changed to the benefit of the...
  10. Maverick review from a general contractor

    No Not sketchy at all if the knots are tied properly. Ratchet straps have only been around for 10 minutes compared to how long people have been tying knots. He seems the type to know what's he doing.
  11. 2022 Ford Maverick Pickup Truck Revealed with Standard Hybrid, 40MPG City, $20K MSRP

    Ranger Supercab XLT with FX4 = $39, 959 Canadian. I know my choice.
  12. AWD Nice but Not Necessary in Winter

    My favorite winter driving is good ice tires (I rarely drive in snow, usually icy roads), and traction control, not AWD.
