To each his own. If you want to go by the Manufactures guidelines the by all means go for it. As for me I have seen more engine destruction and worn out engines from extended oil changes or lack of oil changes than I want to see. I have never seen an engine blow up (unless its a Kia/Hyundai 4...

Ran 15% of the time and probably never got up to operating temp and burned off any moisture that inevitably gets into all engines and oil and contaminants it. Thus the reason for regular oil change intervals (5,000) not extended oil change intervals (10,000), even on and more importantly Hybrid...

I did my first oil change at 1,500 miles, next one 3,500 miles later at 5,000 and every 5,000 since. Never has used any and OLM never went below 50% oil life left. Almost 35,000 miles and no problems.

I plan on doing mine at my next oil change at 35,000 miles. I use Amsoil in everything I have and use their EZ Fill QTs. Its basically and thin plastic paper like container that you can just squish all the oil out of, it works quite well. I will do it again at like 70,000 miles.

Even if he had the Hybrid they still got it wrong. Hybrids take 0W/20 not 5W/20.

Good vehicle maintenance will go a long way. Change your engine oil regularly with good quality oil and get the intake valves cleaned every 60,000-80,000 miles and you can probably get 150,000-200,000 miles out of an Eco Boost motor, keeping good clean oil to the turbo is key. Just my opinion...

There is no Belt in the E-CVT that is the Ford Hybrids. It is two electric motors, one that provides power to the wheels via the Differential, your drive motor, which also provides the regen braking/ charging HVB and another one that provides the starting of the ICE and the power generating when...

It does "feel" cool for it "shift" while getting on it in Sport Mode.

Yes in Tow/Haul and Sport Mode the Hybrids E-CVT will simulate shifts. it basically does it by speeding up or slowing down the electric Generator/Starter Motor that is coupled to the ICE via a Planetary Gear set that can vary engine RPM and feel like a shift. Subarus that have a regular CVT will...

First mod was some RockBlocz mud flaps. I also have the Musology Carbon Fiber interior covers, center console storage and the little storage in front of the center console. Still wanting to get the storage for behind the radio screen. Musology makes some nice stuff.

Did they ever check or change the 12 volt battery? Heard numerous people say it was the OEM battery going bad, causing the no start condition.

Your Maverick could do that if you have the 400 watt inverter. Been there done that.

2022 Hybrid, XLT with Lux and Co-Pilot 360. Picked it up Feb of 23, almost 30,000 miles. Had the grabby brake TSB done, mostly fixed the problem. I did have a leaky rear window that was fixed and a new Headliner installed. But other than that no other problems. Love my truck. I don't plan on...

I also have a 22 Hybrid, XLT, Built Feb 22. Almost 30,000 on mine and have none of the problems you have had. Other then the recalls, at least one of them is on the Eco Boost also, I have had no issues with mine at all, had it go into Deep Sleep only once and it sat for like two weeks, I was on...

While this is all good and everything, it seems you may be one of those people that annoy the heck out of me while on the Highway, speeding up and slowing down. Just pick a speed and go. I regularly get 41mpg in my Hybrid Maverick on my 36 mile round trip, mostly highway at 64mph, that's good...

The yellow wires tap into the right and left front turn signals. The right is a blue with white wire and the left is a yellow with green wire. They work good and look cool.

The two yellow wires will tap into the right and left front turn signals. Right turn signal wire is blue with white and the left is yellow with green. The blacks are all grounds.

Those are for the turn signal portion of the white light bars, hook them up to the corresponding turn signal. They will tap into the very bottom wire on the left and right turn signals. Right is a blue with white, left is a yellow with green.

Thanks. When I saw Shay from Test Driven TV do his install I thought it needed something more in the front instead of all the black so I decided to try and do the color matched letters which I think turned out really good.

Yes I had to remove the entire bumper cover. With Sam videoing the whole process and learning how to do it himself it probably took him longer. Since I watched him do it I knew what tools I needed and what to remove, beside that I am a mechanic and do this sort of thing for a living.
