  1. Members who seem to disappear

    I know I have not been as active as I once was. Although I have posted this a few times, I suffered a stroke a little over a year ago and as a result I lost part of my vision. My truck has been in storage since, and I still run it for a few minutes every couple of weeks. Personally, I feel I...
  2. Post an AI generated image of your Maverick

    So I was setting at my desk messing around with a new install of iOS 27 Beta and I saw a screen shot I had taken of my truck that caught a pop up by mistake. So I gave the newer version of the AI Cleanup a test and this is what it gave me… how do you like the rails for the roof rack? Cleaned...
  3. Storage Drawer w/ Magnet for dash cubby

    I have not looked for Maverick accessories at Amazon.ca for over a year (since my stroke and putting my truck in storage), but if I get to drive it again this will be the first purchase. I found Mabett has added a bunch of their items to Amazon Canada in the last year, Hopefully I will get to...
  4. What's everyone’s mileage now 👀

    Year - 2024 (03/24/2024) Hybrid Current kilometerage - 11661 Km (7246 Mi) Kilometers in the last 365 days = 0 Biggest issue so far (if any) - Has needed an oil change for 5 months (the oil life has timed out - the oil was changed a few months before it was put in storage). I have only had 2...
  5. Put truck in a bikini

    Yeah, that was the downsides. It also protected that area from UV light so the paint started looking different (brighter) in the area under the bra.
  6. Put truck in a bikini

    Before I clicked, I was expecting to see something like the old front-end protectors (front-end bra) that used to be popular. I used to run one on my mustang.
  7. Confirmed - Battery Saver mode doesn't look at the battery health!!! Time to complain

    It is not really about going into battery saver mode although as a techy having an app lock up is a tiny bit annoying. It's more of a timer reminding me to flex the engine and HV battery a tiny bit. It is also nice to sit in it and play with the head unit a bit as iOS has changed a lot since my...
  8. Confirmed - Battery Saver mode doesn't look at the battery health!!! Time to complain

    I have a 2024 Hybrid Lariat that has been in storage for 7.5 months due to having suffered a stroke. I have my truck on a trickle charger that keeps the 12v battery held a 12.7V and about 76% SOC but my truck goes into battery saver mode on the 14th day in storage like clockwork because that has...
  9. Coolant temp

    I like to maximize fuel efficiency so when I used to commute to work; I would not use heat I would use the heated seat and steering wheel. I would also try opening the window slightly to try and keep the windows from fogging up as I hated using the defogger even if I had the temp on cold.
  10. Be Honest - have you ever driven with passengers in the rear seats?

    Yes, but not often. Like others, the centre seatbelt error popped up so I have my guests buckle the centre seatbelt to allow me to clear it. Most of the time it's used for the dogs. I rarely have to remove the protector.
  11. Improved the ugly front end on 2026 Maverick XLT w/ black wrap on 2025+ facelift bumper

    I will admit the front of the 25/26 has grown on me a bit (I do love the 22/24 though), but this makes it look even better! Great idea!
  12. Replacing the Hybrid's OEM 12v. Battery

    I was able to do it in about 30 minutes with a tiny bit of difficulty. I did not remove the plastic base around the battery, but I used an expandable magnetic pen like instrument to pull out the loosened nut and bracket and reposition the metal bracket after the swap. I also used tiny piece of...
  13. Thank you, Ford Engineers! Saved by front crash alarm

    It had been over 2 years since I read the manual, but I thought I read the emergency braking was not intended to always stop the truck in time to avoid a collision. My understanding is it will prime the brakes to assist your ability to stop and if the active braking is turned on it will attempt...
  14. why i did not get to buy my 2025 lariat today in morgan hill calif

    My hand shook a little but my dealer took a personal cheque (Canadian spelling). I had called and confirmed and his replay was, "It's ok, we know where to find you!"
  15. Light Blue color 2026 Maverick coming later in model year (~February 2026)

    My thoughts exactly... I will stick with my metallic carbonized grey with black appearance. It matches my closet.
  16. Is the Ford Maverick Lariat Worth $40k?

    I am the same as you… recently retired and had saved up to pay cash. Even bought a good warranty and 8 year replace cost insurance.
  17. Is the Ford Maverick Lariat Worth $40k?

    So, I have not read all of the replies yet, but the price quoted in the video was $38,090 if I remember correctly (it was rounded up to $40k). I paid $49,500 for my blacked-out Lariat... was that a good deal - 🤣 ? Fortunately (or unfortunately) that was in Canadian dollars, so it was roughly...
  18. Replacing the Hybrid's OEM 12v. Battery

    I replaced mine with a similar sized battery (footprint was almost exactly the same but it was ever so slightly taller - AGM) without removing the plastic. It was a little tight to get the nut back on the bracket but it was do-able. I ended up holding the bolt on to the socket using a small...
  19. 2025 Lariat Hybrid order changed to 2026

    Yes, I had originally ordered a MY23 but it did not get scheduled so my order rolled over into a similar 24 unfortunately I lost the door keypad, heated wipers and it cost me a little more but I did get the spray in liner added as standard in my trim level. I think the wait back then was 344...
  20. Car locked me out with keys inside

    Good thing there is no down vote, because being an LA fan and cheering for Washington over Vancouver is certainly deserving of one! 😀
