  1. Just towed trailer 200 miles with XLT EcoBoost 4K Tow AWD (Santa Cruz to Lucerne CA through 3 mountain passes)

    Yes, for more control. It is very mountainous out here and cruise control is very annoying when you're doing lots of climbing.
  2. Just towed trailer 200 miles with XLT EcoBoost 4K Tow AWD (Santa Cruz to Lucerne CA through 3 mountain passes)

    Pretty sure Ford recommends not using cruise control when towing on large inclines. I know I wouldn't do it myself.
  3. Dudd

    Nice pics! I keep mine pretty clean most of the time - mostly to keep the salt off of it in the winter.
  4. 4k towing hitch class?

    I have the 4K tow package, but I won't be considering any trailers over maybe 3000lbs. You need some wiggle room for passengers weight and all your gear, water, food. Right now I'm leaning towards a hard side A frame pop-up in the 1700-2300lb range. Buying a 4000 lb trailer for this truck...
  5. Trailer Towing Review & MPG Stats with the Maverick Hybrid 2.5L

    That seems like a reasonable price at this point, but I'm no expert. They do seem to be hard to come across.
  6. Trailer Towing Review & MPG Stats with the Maverick Hybrid 2.5L

    Nice trailer! I've always wanted a scamp. Mind sharing what you paid for it?
  7. 4K Towing update after some serious towing with 2.0 XLT

    Good to hear. I'm pulling a 12' cargo trailer about 800 miles in a few weeks. Trailer should be about 3500-3900 lbs loaded. I'll be driving across much more rugged terrain, though.
  8. Indy Area - Maverick Tremor Delivery

    Paying in cash is the way to go!
  9. Maverick BS accessories and their alternatives

    I saw a post on here the other day of someone selling leather key fob covers. A custom leather cover... for a plastic key fob...? I just cannot understand why. In all my years of owning vehicles I've never had an issue with a key fob getting damaged or felt it needed a cover of any sort.
  10. Is there a soft roll up cover which is not short?

    I had a Truxport and it wasn't short. Good cover for the price. I tried a trifold first and hated it for the Maverick - it just wastes too much bed space versus a soft roll-up.
  11. Things I hate about my Maverick after 20k miles (from a Maverick lover)!

    Interesting to read other opinions. None of the things you listed bother me (I actually like the gear knob). My only real complaint after 16 months is that the plastics are too easily scratched. I can live with that given the price point.
  12. Meaning of symbols on OEM rubber mats?

    Pretty sure the last one is to not place the mats on top of other mats
  13. Roof / Bed rack

    My gut says to look into harbor freight. I believe I saw something for $350-$400ish that someone put on a Maverick with minor modifications.
  14. Utah Bed Extender - $135

    Generic Bed Extender (non-Ford). In great shape, but I am going to change to a different bed setup and don't need it anymore. Pickup only in SLC (Millcreek).
  15. Transmission fluid maintenance

    AFAIK the current government quotas are only for about 67% EV production by 2032 so I think there will be plenty of new gas and/or hybrid gas trucks for another decade or two.
  16. Transmission fluid maintenance

    Bought a 5 year extended warranty and plan to sell mine a month before it runs out and upgrade. Getting too old to worry about changing fluids all the damn time or mischievous ford engineers colluding with the execs to stretch their bottom line. Buy the extended warranty, stick to THEIR...
  17. Softopper order lead times (6+ weeks)

    I just wanted to give everyone a heads up if you are considering a Softopper. I placed an order 2 weeks ago and still hadn't heard any updated on my order. Today I got around to contacting their CS to see what the order status was and was told 3-4 additional weeks. Their product page and...
  18. Black Plastic Trim Care?

    Yes the bottle definitely seems cheaper to me. I get it, I go back and forth to Arizona. The 303 automotive protectant is what you want. It really helps prevent all that UV damage. It's $12.79 on Amazon.
  19. Black Plastic Trim Care?

    I find the wipes to be a waste of money. They also tend to dry out before you can use them all. Just buy a bottle of 303 spray and call it a day. That stuff works great.
  20. Destroyed Maverick - SLC

    I saw it on KSL a few days ago. Low price if someone wants a huge fixer upper, lol.
