I'm retired, but one thing I don't miss about being in the insurance business is when other people tried to tell me how it worked.
The only other vehicle normally covered by your insurance (for damage to the vehicle) is a temporary substitute vehicle - i.e., a loaner or a rental while your car...
My mistake, then. I can tell you that my alarm has beeped a few times when my Mav thought I was too close to someone in front of me (like I wasn't paying attention). I guessit takes the place of my wife.
maybe they should call it the "Wife Safety Alarm"??
Like, "Beeeeep! you're too close to...
Isn't that part of the 360 package?
I did not get that. I have the beep beep beep alarm that goes off if I am close to rear ending someone, but I don't have the auto braking. I don't have the XL. I have the XLT, and the only options I got were floor mats, trailer hitch, 400w outlet, and hood...
Reading your post, you're making me glad I did not get the AEB. I've had my warning beep a couple of times when the truck thought I was going to hit something in front of me, but I would not/will not depend on a system like that to control my vehicle in an emergency situation. I may be a...
The hybrid tow hitch only has a 4-pin connector --- you need the 7 pin round connector to hook up to a trailer with trailer brakes.
Most small trailers (e.g., travel trailers) under 3000 pounds, and with only one axle, will not have trailer brakes.
I am not a trailer expert, and I don't work in...
Panic braking in the Mav is a little grabby, but really, I am in ECO mode most of the time, and I use my brakes so little it's crazy.
Doing 60 on a two lane road, and if it gets a little twisty with some "30 mph" corners (according to the yellow signs), just let off the gas for a few seconds...
I'm just glad I picked up some more Ford Stock a few months ago. It's back over $13 today, and hoping it will get back into the $18 to $20 range. Great dividend, even if it doesn't go up in face value. Ford is doing well.
People complain I sounds terrible when I'm using the Maverick mic.
I have to switch to phone use. Not the end of the world, but if there was an easy fix, that would be good news...........
I took a quick look at these pics and it doesn't look like the rear license plate is offset to the right. Looks like there is an area in the CENTER of the rear bumper for a license plate? Which would mean it's something else?
There are three other Mavs in my town, but after thinking about it... I don't think I've ever seen more than one on any given day.
While traveling out of town, I have had the occasion to park next to another Maverick.
Where I live, it's more likely I'll park next to a F150. Here, housewives...
I've had the maverick for 8 months+, and it probably needs a name. If I say, "the truck", my wife would probably think I'm talking about my Expedition. It's a lot more "truck like" than the Maverick.
So as a result, I've been calling it "my car". But it feels weird cause it's not a car.
In...
I do hate most commercially produced fragrances - especially coconut, vanilla, hazelnut. The whole world smells like a chemically synthesized candle. Can't stand scented garbage bags. Really? Who are you kidding, anyway?
But I do find certain "clean" smells are okay. Windex. Some Soaps. Pine...
I'm not wealthy by any means, but at this point in my life I have a few things that I am very brand loyal about:
paper towels = Bounty, only!
bar soap = Safeguard!
OJ = Florida Natural
ginger ale = Vernors
and tires? = Michelin.
I don't have any science to back this up but I have never ever...
