I just towed my ā01 Triumph ST on my flatbed trailer for 550 miles w my Eco. Both trailer and bike weigh less than your setup. I lost about 5 mpg from normal. Maybe that helps you a bit. But, definitely not the same setup that you will have.

Carpetā¦everyone usually has some spare or old piece in the basement. I have one that I cut to perfectly fit. I use it when moving something I (or the wife) doesnāt want scratched. I have the Ford spray in bedliner and itās pretty rough.
I use this stuff every wash, and if I am taking a trip I give the whole front end an extra spray when dry just after the pre-trip wash. Nice that it doesnāt turn the black plastic white, and so far no haze on the headlights either. Itās pretty cheap too (like me). Easy to use and works great...
Hi Billā¦Iām an hour or so North of you in Orange County and am very interested in all 4. Do you have a tire depth gauge to measure the remaining tread? Iām on the road for a few days but would like to drive down and have a look later this week if they are still available.
Hmmmā¦Unfortunately I just had a flat tire and had to use the ādonutā spare. Since I was in a hurry I really didnāt notice the spare positioning. Good newsā¦the tire was easily plugged and Iām back on the road w 4 round tires. But if some kind soul here could take a pic of the spare in itās...
45,000 miles in 2 years with between 6/32ā and 7/32ā left on the OEM Contiās. I am starting to research replacementsā¦. The Contiās treated me Ok, but Iād like a tire with a bit longer tread life and a little better winter grip. I do lots of highway driving so noise is a issue tooā¦although the...
I replaced them with better speakers from Crutchfield. A bit better, but not really worth it in my opinion. Upgrading the fronts afterwards made a huge difference.
ā24 XL did it twice over 35k miles. Both times I was on long highway runs just listening to tunes. Both times it reset itself and all was fine.
Since getting the rear camera software fix done itās been fine over about 10k more milesā¦. Did you get that update done?
I too hear the āsewing machineā noiseā¦especially when cold. 48k miles and still sounds the same!
Itās a known quirk discussed on this siteā¦time for a search.
Ford did not include the soundproofing pieces between the engine compartment and the doors on the ā24 XLās (and maybe other versions I...
My Maverick was purchased 2/24 with the Ford Trifold Soft Bedcover installed. I wish to sell the cover as my wife bought me a Hard Bedcover. Itās in Good condition. Very easy to install and remove!
$75. Local Pickup in Orange County, VA onlyā¦no shipping.
Hi All,
Iāve finally decided to get the Backup Camera Recall done on my ā04 XL. The dealer said they can do this with their mobile service. Thatās great, but I havenāt heard of anyone having this recall done using the mobile service. Iāve only heard of this getting done at the dealer.

Yupā¦I have the same problem. I usually just hit the window defrost button and let that run for a few minutes. I do lots of long highway driving and it gets pretty annoying. Lots of theories on this site, but so far no fixes. Does it in manual and auto modesā¦Brrrr!
9k miles? Itās barely broken in! If itās been trouble free, why waste the moneyā¦unless youāve got plenty of it. If thatās the case then why buy a Maverick and not something much nicer?
Iām kinda a cheapie, so Iām hoping for well over 100k. My other vehicle (6 cyl Dodge Journey) with almost...
I had a Lincoln MKZ that I wanted to love, but the seat wouldnāt let me drive more than an hour without causing thigh and hip pain. Traded that in on my Maverick and very happy now. Everyone is built differentā¦.sounds like adding a spacer or two is the first and cheapest step. Maybe try that...
