  1. Lariat or well spec'd XLT?

    Depends on what you can't live without. I wanted the ACC since I freeway commute. Ford's is better than the ACC on my Honda Fit. It will bring me to a complete stop. The heated steering wheel, seats and mirrors were a big plus that I'm deciding a can't live without. I take the dog with me...
  2. The cheapest truck in American is also the smartest

    My first new car was the Escort. I replaced it with another Escort. When they stopped making Escorts, I bought used and even a Dodge Neon. My last new car was a Honda Fit in its last model year. I've been chasing economy rides my entire-car-buying life and happily transitioned to the Maverick...
  3. Wife upstages me

    Including mavericks...
  4. Made a Spare Wallet Key! For a savings of negative -$99

    My favorite part of this how you used it as an excuse to be a new piece of machinery (and accessories) "for a good cause." This is why I spend hundreds of dollars on guns, ammo, hunting gear, bird dog, etc. - all the "free" meat.
  5. 2 Things I love about my Lariot Hybrid

    Agreed. I can help the kids move little stuff, but I never get the call for big hauling jobs. Just the way I like it. I can fit six kayaks (with the rack) in the bed for a fun weekend out, but can't haul heavy stuff. Perfection.
  6. Random Maverick Photos of the Day Thread! 📸

    Added my F designation to the tailgate.
  7. Mabett Retractable Ratchet Straps Available Now – Secure Your Cargo with Ease!

    OK. You can take my money. Sadly they won't be here in time for the July 4th weekend kayak trips.
  8. Best way to move a large canoe with a Maverick?

    Harbor Freight ladder rack mounted in the bed. Strap it down tight.
  9. This pressure washer is on sale cheap RYOBI

    Wirecutter thinks Ryobi is a good deal. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-pressure-washer/
  10. Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    I listen to audiobooks on my daily 40 min. commute. Would not own a vehicle without AA for that reason alone. Love being able to have Waze on the screen while listening to books and control volume, pause, phone calls, and Android speech recognition from the steering wheel. Honda got me hooked on...
  11. Barely avoided some Maverick on Maverick violence this morning...

    To be fair, 710, this IS Columbus. This is a town that shuts the freeways down to a crawl when there is 1/4" of rain.
  12. Found in Walmart

    The blue Hot Wheels is the one I'm looking for too.
  13. IS the Lariat worth the extra money?

    Yes it's worth it. Sort of. I went from a 2019 Honda Fit ($19K new) with ACC, LKA, keyless entry, pushbutton start and touchscreen display connected to my phone. Didn't care about any of the Honda infotainment features because I used Waze and listened either to audiobooks or podcasts on...
  14. Maverick TV Ads

    I hit a deer in my Honda Fit in November 2024 and it was a total loss. I'd been eyeing Mavericks for a while and knew if Toyota didn't come out with a hybrid Taco, I would be headed to the Blue Oval (my wife is a dedicated Ford driver). Since they didn't, I started Googling dealers for Hybrids...
  15. Do you get comments on the street about your Maverick?

    Have only had a few. I live in the country, so it's F-150/F-250 country. I tell people it's my daily driver (which it is).
  16. Wireless cell phone charging

    I agree wholeheartedly with you. The Lariat charging pad isn't quite useless, but it's pretty close. If I don't use the phone while driving, it will trickle in some charge, but if I'm running Waze and either Spotify or Libby for audiobooks (which I always do while driving), it has a hard time...
  17. Stanley Cup Lid Recall

    Was thinking the same thing. I thought Oilers fans were going to get pretty excited about this news.
