Wow, that's frightening how fast that became perforated! That metal appears to have zero rust protection. I periodically check all my cars in that area as I've found rock chips and rust from said rock chips on all vehicles so far except my Maverick. But none rusted that fast, so I'll make sure...
I recognize this would probably require a roof rack too to get sufficient distance between contact points. But is it possible to safely carry say a 12' aluminum row boat on an elevate rack instead of using a trailer? Why rack instead of trailer? Trailers are bulky, so I really don't have room to...
I'm replying to myself lol. I installed the Lasfits recently, and when replacing the bulbs I could see my housing was at the very beginning of melting (very slightly distortion), so I'm glad I replaced them.
I ordered mine in January 2025. The replacement lid arrived a week or two ago.
Bak has all the data though because you put it in for the warranty request, so if there was an update and the new lid is skinnier, Bak would know that and should have sent shims or new rails.
I will say they are...
Oh man, I got the Revolver X4Ts with the rails for the Elevate rack. I love the rails, I hate this cover. Ive had 5 defects now.
1) original lid the side rubber seals weren't fully attached. Bak sent me superglue for me to repair myself.
2) end cap broke. They sent me 4!
3) screw holding latch...
Yeah, that is a real good perspective Darryl, thanks for that info. It really provides some light into the dilemma you all face as techs, and info to hopefully help everyone who reads this to help the techs do their jobs efficiently. I forget that I really live in a bubble in our industry, but...
Awesome! Kudos on actually caring, and i truly mean that! Can you imagine if all techs and dealers operated like that? It shows that you really care to solve the problem! I hope you inspire and encourage your fellow techs to do the same!
The XL does it too. As I've said in the past, #keeplaststate ... it shouldn't be hard to program as my other cars accomplished it. For me it is a minor inconvenience, but has made starting the car a multi step process.
Yes, but at least in my situation I'm talking about tue behavior when the vehicle is started. So I can have the hvac completely off. When I turned it off, the ac was also set to off. Next time I start the vehicle the hvac it typically on again, and depending on the conditions the ac is also on...
The HVAC does automatically come on even when not in auto. I almost always turn the HVAC off when I get out of my Mav, especially in winter. About 80% of the time when I get back in, the fan is back on. I don't understand how the algorithm decides to keep it off 20% of the time, but it seems to...
I've used this
Its American made, a thick heavy rubber, and only $70. Does it have cosmetic blemishes? Yes, but after 1 load of wood I cannot find rhe blemishes anymore
