  1. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    Hard to say without sitting in your truck, but I can say that the 2025s have a more powerful head unit than the 22-24s, so it's possible you're reaching the limit of he stock amp. Did you do any sound dampening treatment on the doors? That removed a lot of the panel resonance and cleaned up the...
  2. Pay-per-mile vs Gas Tax

    Haven't read all the replies here, but figured I'd chime in with how this works in Indiana - there's a surcharge applied at the time of registration each year for Hybrid or Electric vehicles to supplement the gas tax you're "not paying" when you drive. For my 2025, it was $77. The state is...
  3. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    I actually haven't even purchased a cable yet, as I was waiting for an official release. I'm sure that if I have to wait too terribly long, I'll end up giving the beta a shot.
  4. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    It took me about 5 hours, but now that I've done it once, I could probably do the full swap in under 3. I'd plan for half a day for an experienced shop. I did not add an amp or sub - I'm waiting on Forscan to get reliable 2025 support so I can modify the EQ in the stock DSP before going to the...
  5. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    The issue isn't necessarily the depth, it's that the cutout in the metal structure of the pillar for the driver is only slightly larger in diameter than the speaker itself. You could definitely get another 1/4-1/2" if you made your own adapter instead of the plastic one that Ford has installed -...
  6. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    Good tip about the change to the door speakers via EZ Mode! I'll check that out whenever I can get FORSCAN working!
  7. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    Honestly, I may decide to swap them, but felt there was plenty of high-end and it was reasonably clear already. I'm confident I'll have a better feel for that after more hours of listening. I'm all ears (pun intended) for recommendations, as long as they don't require cutting into the dash mount!
  8. 2025 XLT Speaker Swap - KICKER Front Door & Rear Pillar Upgrade

    I've seen several posts on 2022-24 speaker upgrades (honestly, I may have read them all) - but not too many on the '25s. As many have commented, the base audio system on the 2025 model year appears to be upgraded, but after doing this install, I'm pretty confident the only change from the 2024...
  9. Phantom light in 2025 Maverick XL mirror

    I see the same thing on my '25 XLT. I usually have about 2 seconds where I think "what the...?" And then remember it's that light! I haven't covered mine up yet...
  10. '25 infotainment pin-out / wiring diagram (non B&O)

    I have similar questions - I want to add a sub to my '25 XLT and am trying to find the most simple "plug and play" solution. Something like a Kicker Key would certainly take care of any EQ deficiencies for the rear speakers, but that's quite an expensive solution for what I'm after. With the...
  11. Designed my own LEGO Maverick, with instructions linked!

    I've used Studio in the past, it's definitely great! I had the time to kill this weekend, and the pieces were fairly easy to come by with those few exceptions, so I just got to building this time. Your MOC is by far the best I've seen at compromises between technique and detail at this...
  12. Designed my own LEGO Maverick, with instructions linked!

    Well, this weekend I took OP up on the challenge and decided to try and make my Eruption Green XLT in Lego - it was pretty tricky! That said, I'm really pleased with the final result - the instructions for this MOC were very good, well worth the cost, and the detailing on this model is crazy...
  13. 2025 MY Install Auto-Dimming / Homelink rear View Mirror Wiring (Same as Previous years)

    Chiming in on this Thread - I installed a Gentex 1427 from a Subaru in my '25 XLT, and discovered what this thread has already indicated - the purple wire in the overhead console is not supplying constant 12V even when the ignition is on. My mirror got power, but wouldn't dim, and behaved very...
  14. Pennsylvania HomeLink Rear View Mirror Gentex 453 Auto Dim with Orange Compass $40 OBO shipped

    Is this still available, of did you sell it elsewhere?
  15. 2025 HVAC?

    Actually, it's also impacting Indiana eruption green Mavericks too...source: Me. 😂
  16. Did they change the sound system with the 2025s?

    I've been pleasantly surprised at the stock sound system in my '25 XLT that I picked up this week! It's not QUITE as good as the Fender system I had in my previous car (2013 VW GTI), but that system was pretty phenomenal for its time. I did test drive a '22 XLT a year ago, and that system was...
  17. Turning Off Seatbelt Reminder (2025)

    Just writing to confirm this worked for me in my '25 XLT!
  18. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    I think the point was that the 2025s seem to be different. I can confirm that I tried the normal procedure on my '25 XLT, and wasn't able to enter ET mode.
