Thanks for the replies. I will take them all into consideration as I search. My main reason for asking is that we will need to put luggage in the bed for a short trip. Not sure if I will keep the on the bed after that. Bandaid

I need to install a bed cover on my 2023 Maverick. What is a simple one to install that will be reliable.

I have a 2023 FWD XLT and there have been two rattles since I took delivery. One seems to be located in the right front part of the dash and the other is on the right hand side of the center black light housing near the windshield. That one id most prominent when driving about 20 mph over a...

I called the dealership about it and they sent a mobile Ford Mechanic van to my house. The reflash of the computer took maybe 15 minutes. They also had to go around the vehicle and reset the TPMS sensors. Done gone and saved me a 70 round trip and a half day of time! Bill

I will be calling the dealer Monday morning to set up an appointment. Seems odd that it should take a half day to reflash the computer with the software fix!

I too have a rattle either in the dash, or near the mid front window speaker, in my 2023 XLT. Locating the exact point of the rattle is difficult, as it only happens when driving down a road with a rough surface! Living in Florida and the truck sitting out in the sun, I would not expect the...

No, I think they are just greedy and look for Retired people to rip off!

I ordered one when I placed the order for my truck and the dealer forgot to add it on. They provided one from Ford. I would have liked to find one with a turned up lip to direct the airflow above the windshield. Those do help to keep the Love Bugs off the windshield during the seasons here...

Update on my towing lights. I made brackets out of 1 1/2" aluminum angle and fastened the trailer lights to them. I removed the upper tie down holds at the rear of the Mav bed and bought longer metric bolts to hold the light brackets in place. I did have to make a 1/2" wood spacer between my...

I don't know if it was due to the Collision avoidance, or my quick reactions, but I almost got my six week old Mav totaled yesterday. I believe a pickup and another vehicle were having a road rage issue. I had my blinker on and was about to change lanes when this Pu squeezes between me and the...

I think a lot of it also has to do with so many tires that have aggressive tread, especially those used on pick up trucks. Also, the large dump trucks that carry grave and crushed rock. Just driving by those and you can see the piles of rock along the tailgates and the sides of the truck. It...

I just got my 2023 XLT five weeks ago and it did come with carpeted front mats only. I live in Florida and have the same sand problem as the original poster. I ordered front and rear tray mats, through Amazon, to catch the tracked in sand. They are not Weather-tech, but are made the same way...

From what I was told in talking with a tire engineer and then confirmed by the manager of the tire store I was using, The compound is different on the OEM tires. Our 2014 Ford Edge Limited went through its tires in 20 K. The same brand replacement bought at the tire store mentioned above are...

My 2023 XLT has a rattle in the passengers area of the dashboard. Originally I thought it was the plastic emergency gas filler funnel that was put in the glove box. NOPE, that is now out in the bed storage compartment and the rattle is still there. I have a feeling there is a section of...

I wonder if this is similar. The one thing I have noticed on my 2.0 FWD is after coming to a stop at a light, or anywhere, when I release the brake pedal and start up again , the brakes seem to be "locked on" and release all at once. Personally, I am not a big fan of all this electronic...

This Friday I am purchasing a tow dolly to tow our FWD 2.0 XLT behind our camper. I was reading in the Manual about towing the Maverick and it said something about the electric parking brake. Does this brake come on automatically when the vehicle is put in park and the ignition turned off? If...

Very nice job! Certainly something I can consider doing, as they look a whole lot better than what I have made up out of scrap materials!

My wife always complains about how much "junk" I keep. I happened to have kept a pair of saved boat trailer tail lights and have made brackets the go on under the top hold tie down zorts at the back of the bed in the truck. Once it stops raining long enough to install them, I will create a...

I have a Harbor Freight about a mile from my house. I may look into them if the ones I am creating don't work. I would have had them done this afternoon except that we got 8 " of rain since 5 AM this morning which kept me from doing measurements with the truck sitting outside. To be continued...

Yeah, I thought there would have to be some kind of way to prevent back feeding the whole system on the truck. My original plan and the one I am going with for now is to wire up a pair of auxiliary trailer lights mount to brackets, wiring them to the campers light plug. This will mean more...
