Interesting conversation. I've owned my Maverick Hybrid for two years and have 35,000 miles on it. I finally put a hitch on it last month and towed my 5'x10' tilt bed trailer for the first yesterday. 160 mile round trip and it towed like a dream. The load was only a couple hundred pounds...
It's a touch screen. There is a separate rear facing camera place in the rear window. You can display the rear camera or the reflective screen. I don't care for the rear camera view so I use the reflective screen. It's probably not the greatest mirror but it's sufficient for me.
The mount fit the camera just fine, no adjustments needed. I vaguely remember having an issue getting it fitted onto the windshield mounting block but it might have been the order in which I was doing things. In the end it fit just fine. The only issue is I periodically have to reposition the...
I purchased this camera.
4K 12" Rear View Mirror Camera
And this mount.
Mirror Mount
The only issue I have with the mount is the mirror is rather heavy and I periodically have to readjust the mirror when the road gets a little bumpy. I am also having an issue with recording with the...
I believe I've got a working solution that I'm happy with. I've set up one of my old phones, a Samsung Note 8, with OSMAND (paid version) and removed any and all apps that I could. The Note 8 is not able to connect to the internet so that problem is solved. I paired the phone with the truck...
Jeff, I did a google search a little while ago and it said my Galaxy Note 8 didn't need an internet connection for the location feature to work. Location services uses the GPS satellites so I believe I can use my backup phone with Android Auto along with either Sygic GPS or OSMAND. So cell...
My main goal is to not have my phone connected in anyway (wired or bluetooth) to my truck. If my backup phone doesn't end up working I'll likely use my TomTom.
I downloaded all of the US maps for the Sygic GPS app that I am currently using. I think I'm going to give the OSMAND app a try once I get my backup phone powered up again (need to replace the swollen battery first)
In my previous vehicle I used a TomTom and had no issues. Since the Maverick has a reasonably nice screen in it I'd much rather use that for the navigation.
So no matter what the phone has to be connected to the truck whether it's with a cord or wireless dongle.
I still have my previous Samsung phone (saved as a backup phone). From what I've been able to find out the gps location service will work on that phone even without an internet...
Hi, this is my first post. I bought my 2024 Hybrid XLT in early July and am loving the heck out of it. So far it seems to be a great vehicle.
My problem is I am confused on how best to get navigation and music. My current setup is a TF card plugged into the USB-A port that I've loaded with...
