I have trouble resisting cheap garage sale bikes. My normal bike.

The theory I've seen here before is that the fee is calculated based on the VIN codes. And that the truck code gets priority in Ohio's system over the hybrid code. It's something that could potentially get fixed at some point, but I ain't going to be the one telling them about it.

Park it next to an International "pickup" truck.

Here's their full 2024 list, which includes all power types. What's interesting about their scores is that EVs won't just automatically win. The scoring includes not just tailpipe emissions and fuel efficiency, but also the type of fuel used, the materials that go into manufacturing, and the...

Would be interesting to see the numbers if they removed the Tesla from the results. They make up the bulk of pre-existing EV sales and are notorious for build-quality problems that have nothing to do with them being EVs and more to do with cut corners and even blaming drivers for issues caused...

It's funny, usually when I run out from my house to get something from the Mav, I'm being lazy at not even looking for my keys because I have the keypad and generally don't have my phone on me in that situation. And always forget that I could have just unlocked it from the app before I go out...

I'm jealous because I'd love to put a wreath on mine, but it'd block the grill radar sensor block for the adaptive cruise control. Bah-humbug.

It makes me wonder how many people who would consider a hybrid hadn't considered a truck before the Maverick was announced. If their market research started with "Are you looking for a Ford truck?" it'd essentially start solely with the Ford truck market, which as others mention, tends to be...

For those looking, check out the Weego Model 44s. Well-reviewed, very small, yet powerful, and currently on sale during the Black Friday weekend.

I currently have front seat covers for my Maverick that don't pass through the heat well from my heated seats. Would love to find a set of reasonably priced covers that will provide some protection for the Lariot's fake leather seats while still allowing heat through quickly during the winter...

I have no skeletons in my closet. They're all in my truck bed.

Had an older Ford Ranger. Have a Maverick. The comparison for me is crash test videos for both. Yikes. So glad I was never involved in a crash in the former.

I was relieved to not see it when I went to get the new plates to replace the temp tags.

Yes, this confused me at first as there was noise but I didn't feel heat coming out of the vents. According to the manual (pg 128): So, turning Auto off and then changing the air outputs to the floor or both the floor and forward vents resolved this for me. The Auto setting may work best for...

The wireless charging pad is nice for those phones that can use it, but when you use your phone's GPS navigation (Waze, Google Maps, etc) I've found that it can't always keep up with the power needs. So I've always kept mine plugged via USB cable. Considering you need to do that to make use of...

It's kind of fascinating to watch videos from Prius owners on rebuilding their batteries.

Only vaguely related, but this is a fun bit of history.

The Prius has benefited from being seen as the early innovator for hybrids, but it also earned attention for years afterward by being a better hybrid than competitors. There are many ways to create a hybrid and not all of them are equally efficient. Looking back at 2010 reviews as Ford released...

It's funny how quickly you learn how to identify the same vehicle once bought and start noticing them.

I want to find a holiday decoration that look like our little Mavericks. I see trucks for every fall holiday appear once September arrives. Almost, but not, Cactus Grey. Now I need to find one in Carbonized Grey.
