  1. How much mulch have you hauled?

    I've had about a yard and a half in the back of my Maverick. Based on the estimated weight of the mulch, that's about as much as I would want to try.
  2. Restraint Indicator Lamp Warning message via Ford Pass app

    Right now I've got this issue, three recalls and a customer satisfaction program to get done whenever I get my truck scheduled for service. Side note: is there any benefit to having warranty work done at the dealer where the truck was purchased over another one (such as one half the distance...
  3. Deep Sleep Poll Hybrid Owners

    Had my '22 Lariat for about 18 months and just short of 22k miles...the Ford Pass app deep sleep messages have popped up for the first time over the last week. No other issues with the truck. I'll have to wait and see if any other symptoms start to appear.
  4. Restraint Indicator Lamp Warning message via Ford Pass app

    Well, I guess you could say I don't use the app much, but last night I noticed that in the Ford Pass app that there was the following message: "restraint indicator lamp warning - the restraint control module has detected a fault with the second row driver side seat belt sensor" (Mar2023)...
  5. With hybrids and EVs, will "passing down"/restoring cars become a thing of the past?

    Just thinking out loud here and pulling in a bit of American nostalgia and Americana, but who thinks that with the rise of hybrids and EVs and given the current issue of a finite lifespan for batteries, do we think that most hybrids and EVs will become impractical to "rebuild" and restore like...
  6. Dog Platform

    Hey, BLachance75, where did you get the door covers? I've got a hammock for the back seat but have been wanting to get something for the doors given the known issue of the plastic being easily scratched.
  7. What if your hybrid gets totaled?

    I've pondered the original question also. Not sure what I'd do. I would want to replace my Lariat hybrid with another hybrid, but that would depend on the availability and price, especially now that after three years of working from home full-time the powers-that-be at my employer have decided...
  8. What age group Maverick owner / buyer are you?

    I'm curious if there is other data that offers different insight. The general Ford thinking seemed to be for the Mav to be aimed at mostly a younger crowd, but based on the highly limited data here it's rather evenly adopted by each age group.
  9. Hybrid Eco vs Normal vs Slippery modes - short distance

    I haven't used ECO mode much but have started to try it and have noticed that when I let off the gas the brakes grab a bit more. But as many has said....it's remembering to push the button each time that will be the biggest change in driving. One would have thought that with a hybrid, having a...
  10. Yetti Water Bottle Swag - but does it fit?

    This has been discussed. It will fit, but it 's tight fit. When I got my water bottle after the airbag recall work was done, I was surprised at the force it takes to get the bottle in there. "Give it a good whack" I really like the water bottle....I bought a Thermoflask at Costco a month or...
  11. Hybrid hauling and towing mulch

    Oh, man, you "disrespecting" the in-bed trunk. Say it ain't so. I loved that feature because I could store stuff in there without it being in the bed, but it was a pain when something was in the bed and you needed to get to something in the trunk. I'd much rather lock things in that trunk...
  12. Hybrid hauling and towing mulch

    So, was it easy to clean out the bed? In my old Ridgeline with the wonderful dual-action tailgate I always had to spend time trying to get the mulch out of the crevices and openings. I've got the Lariat with the spray-in, so I was wondering whether to use the bed or get a trailer. I'm also...
  13. Gift for getting the airbag recall repair done.. YETI tumbler!

    It's just a press fit into the door panel - definitely snug in my truck and the bottle won't rattle around for sure.
  14. Resale Value insane?

    In the process of researching a car purchase for my mom, my 2022 Lariat with 11k miles on it comes back from carguru with a market price of about $40k. Yeah, it's unreal. At least I'll be good for the next few months if anything happens to it.
  15. Gift for getting the airbag recall repair done.. YETI tumbler!

    Is it sad that at almost 59 years old I got excited to get the Yeti Mav tumbler in the mail yesterday about a week or two after getting my airbag recall done? :p I bought a Thermoflask at Costco a couple of months ago but that doesn't fit in the Mav, so I'll enjoy having this thing since it...
  16. Maintenance Schedule for 2021 Maverick [Oil Change, Spark Plugs, Transmission Fluid]

    I'm about to hit 10k miles (at 9500) in about 7 months with 23% oil life remaining. With my Ridgeline the oil life monitor always hit 0% at the 6000 mile mark as recommended in the manual. So I guess I'll go with the 10k/1-yr limit unless the oil life monitor gets to 0% before then. Edited...
  17. Fumoto drain plug

    Used the Fumoto valves on three different vehicles and just got mine for the Maverick earlier this week. Debated whether or not to get one for the Mav since it only requires 1 yr/10k OCIs, but since I plan to keep this truck for as long as it runs, I went ahead and got one because it makes...
  18. Backseat rattle

    Thanks, NWA, I'll check it out. Something like that would seem to create the type of sound I'm hearing, although I would swear it's coming from the rear passenger area more toward that door, but who knows. I'll post my results here after I check it out. I dropped my Maverick off at my dealer...
  19. Tire rotation pattern

    Question: the manual shows or at least seems to indicate that the rotation pattern is to cross-rotate the rear tires to the front and move the front to back. I ran across a video from Test Driven TV and they just rotated front-to-back/back-to-front on same side. I went with the manual when I...
