  1. Hybrid touch screen - an after thought?

    This is the first vehicle I've owned with a touch screen. While size seems ok, why isn't screen integrated into the dash rather than added on? From a drivers perspective, what is the little "pocket" to right of the screen good for? With that being said, what about the little 'bowl' behind the...
  2. Phone Charging

    Just about everyone knows we had cat 4 hurricane hit the southwest coast of Florida resulting in massive power outages. For me and thousands of others, we were forced to charge our phone from our vehicle. Some could activate their car by putting the ignition "on" (possibly running their...
  3. ECO vs Normal mode for 60+ mph speeds?

    I went to my GF's house which is 17.3 miles away in ECO mode. Speeds ranged from 30 to 50 mph with 6 semaphores/stop signs. On the way there I got 69 mpg. On the way back, using the same route, at about the same time I used Normal mode and got 68 mpg. I don't do much freeway driving. I'm...

Automatic transmissions have trany creep, that is, even in idle...
  6. Surprise, Surprise

    The information on this site (and the dealer) indicated when Ford was going to build my Hybrid truck, I'd get an email. I placed a reservation in mid June that was converted to an order in mid July but due to a dealership snafu, the order was not sent to Ford until early October. I got a call...
  7. I drive fast - 80mph or more

    Will the Maverick hybrid be able to keep up that speed or higher without issues?
  8. Dealer Truck ??

    My daughter went to the MN state fair yesterday and found this truck. 1. Apparently they are producing some? I thought there was no production scheduled until after 11/23.. 2. I also read (here??) they were only producing trucks for actual customers, not for the dealer (to exhibit).
