  1. Selling my 2023 back to the dealer

    So odd how these things go. My 23 hybrid has been great. No issues except for the stupid computer programming recalls and the CV axles. All of which Ford fixed quickly on their dime. At ~ 46K miles I am still thrilled to have the Mav. Even more now with gas prices. Having said that, the worst...
  2. Thank you, great explanations and now I understand 🙏can it really go nearly 25 miles on electric only

    On a side note, when I ran out of gas I can verify the battery got me 12-14 miles or so to the next gas station.
  3. Front Speaker Upgrade and Sound Deadening Installed

    Just a couple positive comments for those still wondering if the sound dampening stuff is worth it. I upgraded the speakers in my 23 Mav and decided to apply the dampening material to the door as part of that. Because I don't have hours of time at once I did one door then the next weekend the...
  4. Will the insurance company declare this a total loss?

    I'm guessing they will total your Mav. I am going thru this right now. Not with my Mav, my other vehicle. Had an accident during a recent bad snow/ice storm. Damage looked cosmetic to me but once they got the car in the shop the repair cost was astounding. Insurance decided to total the vehicle...
  5. Tiny nick in windshield question

    Got a nick in my windshield like that over a year ago. Rock ding, round small. Just didn't feel like replacing a windshield for that. Went to the auto store and bought one of this repair kits. Stick the thing on the windshield, plunge the epoxy whatever down into the ding and let it dry. The...
  6. Slip sliding away

    The factory Conti's aren't very good in rain. After the first snow I had your problems as well. I don't anymore. Went old school. Bought Goodyear something or other model hardcore snow tires. I put them on towards end of October and take off sometime end of April. My 23 xlt hybrid drives...
  7. Front USB Ports (Types A and C) - Issues. Replacement.

    Wow, that's really bad. scrap if dropped. Absolutely not to be political but since the part and truck are made in Mexico shouldn't that be in Spanish? The USB port died on my 23 probably sometime in 24. The c port still works. I keep thinking about replacement but just haven't done it.
  8. Removed the Black overlay on the B-C Pillars

    I have to say I like it with the black covers removed. Once the weather gets warmer here I might do the same.
  9. Dealer tried to decline warranty for required repairs.

    I've had multiple computer programming work done on my 23 Mav and all were covered under warranty. On a related note, I had the wobbly cv axles at ~ 20K miles. Took the Mav in and the dealer replaced the cv axles, no questions, no problems, yep we'll do it under warranty. I just hit ~ 40K...
  10. Ford Owner Retention Certificate Program

    Dammit, I don't qualify. I am way too happy with my Mav. On a related note, I did go to the dealer a couple months ago and see about upgrading my 23 to a 25 when they were advertising 0% interest. Mav. didn't qualify for 0% so I didn't think about it anymore.
  11. wobble wobble, cv axles

    Sorry missed the model info 23 hybrid xlt I don't remember the exact date of replacement but it was about 1 year+ ago. I have to call the Dealer to see what they installed; original or updated. Does anyone know if the axles are covered beyond the basic 36000 mile warranty. I'm guessing there are...
  12. wobble wobble, cv axles

    My cv axles got the shakes at ~20K miles. As many others have I took the Mav into Ford and they replaced them no problem. I am just under 40K now and can feel the slight bit of wobble coming on. Apparently the cv axles have a 20K mile clock. A couple questions. Has anyone taken their Mav back...
  13. why i did not get to buy my 2025 lariat today in morgan hill calif

    As others have said there may be some info missing on this post. However, on a related note, a few years ago I was going to buy a vehicle. Checked it out, negotiated, had all the paperwork done, ready to go. Last minute the Dealer pulls out another sheet to sign along with all the rest. I sort...
  14. OEM tires didn't last

    I am at ~ 33K on the original Conti's. They are at or near end of life at this point. The fronts were changed out during winter with Blizzaks each year. Dry driving they are still sort of decent. Wet driving they have been horrible from the start. I am surprised I've gotten this many miles out...
  15. Deathtrap?

    Part of the reason I ordered my Mav with the copilot is that on my 2016 MB vehicle when cruise control is engaged the care basically drives itself. Slows down, speeds up, follows curves, etc. It's really stunning how good it is. The first few times I engaged it in the Mav I thought I was doing...
  16. Would You Buy Your Maverick Again?

    Can't tow anything with the Mav? I don't know who told you that but they are full of you know what. I have towed +/- 2000 lbs. numerous times with no issues. Truck pulls well, stays on the road, handles the trailer, etc. Only difference when towing is the gas mileage drops down to normal...
  17. Tonneau cover that’s theft-proof and waterproof - recommendations?

    Theft proof, not going to happen for someone who really wants to get in. Water proof, definitely not the Ford tri-fold
  18. What are your thoughts on these points against owning a hybrid truck?

    I don't know anything about fancy graphs or engineering calculations. What I do know is that before my 23 xlt hybrid I was spending ~ $100+ a week on gas for a normal car. Not a big truck. Now I spend ~ $45 every 1 and a 1/2 - 2 weeks
  19. Deep Sleep Battery issue (Hybrids)

    No I don't use the Ford Pass app
