Thanks so much!!!! thats about what i have been doing. One small note on my truck. like i have mentioned i went through 4 batteries (flooded) in a year and eventually they gave up and gave me an AGM but just to add to the mystery i NEVER didnt have dome lights as a warning that things were going...

Are there any opinions or tests that gives an idea on how often you need to run your headlights on? Everytime you turn the truck on ? Couple times a week? i drive 4 days a week, twice a day 12miles each way to babysit my grandson. On my days "off" i like to give the truck at least one day idle...

i specifically asked will this Hybrid be good for someone that is retired and doesnt drive far or often. His answer this is exactly what this truck is meant for! Do you know how many times i was told i wasnt driving enough when bringing back a dead truck! Answer 4x !

Northern CT here. At my local Dodge dealer where i successfully bought 2 used Ford F150s with Zero issues there is a 22 XLT Cherry Red 63k miles for $25,877 Eco Boost in comparison there is a 25 F150 25k miles for $45k . The local Ford dealer where i purchased mine has many new and used...

Washed her in the pouring rain! i dont have an outside water source and still not brave enough to trust the local car wash. I wait for a fairly warm day (57* today) and pouring, soap her up, going around 2x, then the wheels/tires and let mother nature rinse it off. Worked well with my Old black...

Thanks to all that are Deep diving into Hybrid 12v battery issues. It is constantly on my mind as i have had many NO starts and 4 batteries in 2 years. I take every idea to heart and my son jokes that my truck rules my life (never driving less than 20min every time i start the truck etc) Thanks...

i love the plum color! always wanted a dark purple, looks black in some light, metal flake color for a truck.

Ouch! I am so sorry for your loss! So happy to see she protected you well when it counted and you were able to walk away.

Not really a recommendation just a personal comment on Tonneau covers. I have a Weather Tech cover that works very well, IF in the cold weather i can open the tailgate. It is often frozen shut, i dont really need to get in very often but its a pain if i wanted to. My biggest complaint is...

i had the software update done with the old not AGM battery. First 3 batteries were August Sept November and the 4th was whenever i wrote that i dont remember but it wasnt in Winter or Hot summer. I try never to use the AC but do have to use the heat. Tomorrow will be a test. I was snowed in...

Does anyone know why leaving the tailgate open cause battery issues? No light is activated that i am aware of. The reason i ask is i have had two times that it was frozen shut to the tonneau cover. I pulled the handle down but couldnt get it to open. I push on the tailgate to try and re close on...

Thanks to someone here for the suggestion to put Pool Noodles into the gap where the wipers are to block a lot of snow accumulation. I find it very helpful!

Not true about Ford only replacing with FLA battery. After my 4th dead battery in just over 1 year, on my 22 Hybrid they agreed there was a system issue and gave me an AGM, no charge

My insurance on my 22 Hybrid just went up $400/year!! I called my agent and they needed to look into it and call me back. She did say that the Maverick went up on the price to repair due to parts availability and the cost of repairs over all since it came out. Before anyone asks i have had the...

My 22 hybrid went through 4 batteries in 14mo's. I always had dome lights so there was never any warning. I would just come out and find it dead. I do all the recommended suggestions, double lock, turn off everything manually before turning off the truck, key fob in pouch, drive at least 13...

Last week after my 4th battery fail in 14mo's Ford finally acknowledged that they do have an issue with the battery's. They replaced mine with an AGM at no charge, i doubt it is the real fix but at least they are finally agreeing the trucks have a charging issue and its not that we are not...

After 3 battery replacements in 14mo and the ACC SSM updated last May i was left dead again this week after only 1 day idle. Truck spent 3 days at Ford and Ford Customer Care acknowledged Hybrids have an issue and approved a replacement to an AGM ( i have been asking for a year) at No Charge. I...

Yes, after 3 days they decided Battery was Dead (no duh) they spoke to Corporate Ford Service and they said yes, they admit that the Hybrid's have an issue and agreed at NO CHARGE to put an AGM battery in. I have been asking for one for the last year and was happy not to have to pay for one. I...

My 22 Mav is sitting at Ford for the 4th dead battery in 14mo's . I had the ACC SSM done in May and it had been really good since then, dome lights always came on etc and then i let it sit 1 day and was DEAD the next morning. 1st day at Stealership they said it "May" have a dead battery need to...

A little early to tell but i will always feel my 03 F150 156k miles gave me 21 years of very reliable driving, it never left me stranded, easy to fix minor wear and tear issues. Paid $15k when it was 2years old had 2 doors extended cab with decent bench backseat room. Took me on some awesome...
