  1. Recommendations for Flea Spray?

    In the old days, the military issued Lindane in small OD Green cans for personal use to control lice and other nasty criters. Chlordane would kill most insects that came in contact with it. Both of those worked really well, but they both have been banned due problems inflicted on humans. IDK...
  2. Any spray for easier removal of dead bugs for long road trip?

    I find that three coats of wax on the front helps stop the bug juice from digesting your clear coat. And a bucket of water with a little dish soap works pretty well. Start by wetting an area with the wet soapy rag, let it sit for a bit and then scrub those little buggers off, rewax.
  3. Secrets of skinwalker ranch premieres new season.tonight

    I watched a few episodes and, well, those type shows are just way to good for me.
  4. Gear shift locked

    I can't recall having this issue with the Maverick. I have had a parking pawl get stuck due to parking on a hill. I found that the pawl would release if I rocked the car a bit, but that was on an old style tranny with shifter linkage. The Maverick is all electric so can't wait to experience this...
  5. Anyone else out there make regular use of N?

    When I park and there is a curb, I creep up to the curb slowly. I feel that bumping a curb will adversely impact alignment. I use "N" to assure there is no pressure on the front tires due to the curb. Okay so I am a little weird, but I do that all the time, so it's a habit...good or bad.
  6. 2025 Maverick Oil Leak from Drain Plug

    You can snug the plug a bit and see if it stops. Don't go all He-Man on it, just snug it. If it continues to leak then take other action, like new plug, new seal, O-ring, ......
  7. Max tow XLT - Awful shifting at low speeds

    I had a slight problem with shift but it was caused by a traction control button I had hit without meaning to. I am a little slow, but when I noticed it was on I turned it off and issue was resolved.
  8. 2025 Maverick XLT - USB port problems

    I had that problem earlier this week. The sound system couldn't read one of my flash drives. I have had a bad flash drive in the past so I took them in the house and checked them in my computer. They were good so back to the Mav and now they are working again. So I assume a loose connection...
  9. Plum crazy Maverick? or Lime Light?

    I will pass. I remember the 70's, lime green, pumpkin orange, sun burst yellow, pale yellow, bright red, forest green and a slew of other truly fugly colors. I had a 75 Jeep CJ5 that started life in lime green. Thank the Lord somebody repainted it grey. I like that those cars only exist in my...
  10. Who still has their Maverick purchased new?

    I have a 24 XLT, EB that will be 2 years in mid July. It has had 1 oil change so far and I am getting close to 7k on the odometer. I really like the little truck and I have pulled an antique JD No 1, horse drawn, mowing machine about a block and loaded all my metal lawn chairs on my little...
  11. Fully electric Maverick EV a possibility?

    Nothing accelerated as quickly as the Ford Lightening, but that's the only EV, I have ridden in. It is very quiet and the weight makes for a very good ride. Pulling a loaded trailer sucked the battery down quickly and, imo, that's what killed it. Farmers and Ranchers need a truck that performs...
  12. What bolts to buy for cargo in bed? - tired of buying the wrong ones

    I used the exact same D rings with M8 bolts 1.25 thread. These are rated for 1,000 lbs each, which is overkill. They are in addition to factory tiedowns and provide two more connect points on each side. I will not be hauling an upright refrigerator in the Maverick.
  13. Insurance rates

    And! Check your coverage for new exclusions. That's beginning to be a problem when you file a claim and they tell you "No that's not covered any more".
  14. Redesign the center console

    There's a light on the back on the console? My dog is the only one that rides back there, so the arm rest extends far enough forward that he is a vision impairment. I installed the trash can on the back of console but he kept falling thru the sprig lid, so I cut a piece of pywood to cover it and...
  15. Looking for a more secure Bak Revolver alternative.

    Locks keep honest men out of your treasures. A dedicated thief will show up with a battery powered saws-all. I have an insurance lock on my yard storage building. Any real thief will use a portable drill with a screwdriver bit. If you get what I am saying.
  16. My brake rotors aren't wearing properly

    We have only had .3 inches of rain this year. We are in a drought. It's dryer than a popcorn fart around here. 😄
  17. My brake rotors aren't wearing properly

    My Mav is a 24 XLT EB and some mornings the brakes whine when I back out of the drive, but not when going forward. Why? I don't have a clue. My experience says a hard breaking event or a habit of stopping short will cause abnormal heating of the rotor and they will warp, causing vibration when...
