  1. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    My bad - it was mid-April when I gave my $500 downpayment for the order. So it will be ~3 months, not 6 weeks, from the order to arrival. Much better than it used to be, I'm aware. If I had room, I'd keep the Sport Trac til I received the Maverick, but I don't; I live in a townhouse and the...
  2. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    I think you mean like holding a bike holder. What else is the receiver used for, and is there a real benefit to having the larger one?
  3. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    What is "MTC"? I did not know about that, or I would have checked it out. Not sure it would have made any difference, but I would have liked to know.
  4. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    Interesting, I did not know that. And I think a lot of people are unaware that there is no upgrade to the cooling system - was it the transmission cooling?
  5. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    I appreciate the response... my biggest worry now is simply timing out the sale of my '04 Sport Trac so I minimize the time that I have to rent a car ...
  6. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    Thank you! I get it. All this waiting around for 6 weeks makes my mind wander!
  7. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    Uh-oh. I received the VIN. My salesman was 20-something, never suggested a thing. I figured why get a tow package when I wasn't going to tow. Later I read some people suggesting resale value alone, not to mention transmission cooling upgrade, made it a good choice. I'm driving my '04 Sport Trac...
  8. Changing my Maverick "build" after ordering the vehicle

    I ordered my 2026 Maverick Lariat Hybrid AWD in April. Dealer not responsive to this question: "I would like to add the towing package. How can I do this?" I thought I'd previously read somewhere here in this forum that it was possible. Ford emailed me " The production of your 2026 Maverick...

    great test. where exactly in the truck was the fob?
  10. Safe to leave a key fob in the truck?

    for some reason the video is just audio for me (?)
  11. Safe to leave a key fob in the truck?

    I also used to go to the beach and surf fish so I wouldn't bring my keys (Sport Trac w/keypad above door handle). But people are at the beach parking lots watching surfers arrive, seeing if they "hide" their key, and then helping themselves to the contents of the vehicle once the surfer is in...
  12. If you reordered your Maverick TODAY… what trim are you picking?

    Can you post a link to the full coverage bed mat you bought?
  13. Safe to leave a key fob in the truck?

    Can you explain what this means? " optioned the keypad on my xlt ". I've ordered a lariat hybrid, w/keypad, like I have on my Sport Trac.
  14. Playing audiobooks

    Can I ask what a "pop socket" on your phone is? I have an iPhone SE - do you think I might have a pop socket? When you say, "the jacks on the back of the center console", since I don't have my truck yet, what does that mean? Do you have to disassemble anything to get to the back of the center...
  15. Playing audiobooks

    I can't burn CDs anymore, I have a new computer (they don't even have CD drives in computers anymore).
  16. Playing audiobooks

    I think they did away with the wireless charging pad. Maybe I can keep the phone plugged in to my truck to keep it charged? I assume CarPlay is something that comes with the Maverick? What happens when you're listening to a book and apple maps gps needs to notify you of an upcoming turn, etc...
  17. Playing audiobooks

    I'm ordering a 2026 Maverick Lariat Hybrid this week. I currently have a 2004 Explorer Sport Trac which has the factory radio / CD player. I normally check out books on CD from the library. I have an iPhone SE, and I understand that I can download books from either from cloudLibrary or Libby...
  18. Installed USB CD Player in the Maverick

    I check out books on CD from the library and listen to them in my 2004 Sport Trac. I don't know what I'll do when I get my Maverick... soon. What would you recommend? CDs from the library (audiobooks) usually have 6-12 discs. Thanks.
  19. Between ordering '25 Lariat AWD Hybrid vs. '24 Lariat Hybrid at the dealer

    Do you mean Granger in Iowa? Did you fly out and drive it back? I didn't know people bought from out of state and brought (or had shipped) vehicles back to CA.
