    How do these get powered? Where is the video stored? How far back in time can I retrieve a video? Why did one example hook to the vehicle's data link connector? Som camera's have front an rear view in one camera.
  2. Maverick was developed with Ford's Dynamic Driving Simulator which compresses months of testing to a single day

    Everything I ever needed to know about AI I learned from the Matrix movies.
  3. 5500 Mile Canadian Road Trip through the Maritimes

    The entire road in Labrador is paved. All the way from Blanc Sablon to Labrador City. Excellent road condition. However, Route 389 in Quebec still has two extensive gravel segments. The 66km from Mont Wright south to Fire Lake is gravel and then the 93km from Relais-Gabriel south to Manic 5 is...
  4. 5500 Mile Canadian Road Trip through the Maritimes

    I just returned from 16 day 5500 mile road trip through Maine, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and Labrador ending with a 2 day stop in Quebec city. Oddly, the gas mileage, and cost, was a bit bizzare. First of all everything is recorded in US$, in miles and in...
  5. Which Engine Would Last Longer?

    King Kong would win Godzilla wipes camshafts Camshaft/Lifter Wear: Some early engines experienced premature wear on the camshaft and lifters due to low oil pressure at idle caused by the variable-displacement oil pump. Ford has addressed this with updated oil pump calibrations. Except that...
  6. What are the pros and cons of 17” vs 19” wheels?

    But the 19" tires are lighter that the 17" tires.
  7. spare tire different

    Interesting. I have a 2025 Lariat Hybrid AWD. I have no problem with the "full size" or "conventional" spare being on a steel wheel. I also have no problem with it being a 17" instead of the 19" that is on all four corners. All that matters is that the diameter, circumference, and revs/mile are...
  8. The 2025 HYBRID Information Screen - aka The Cards We've Been Dealt

    Thank you for the great review. However I have one extremely frustrating issue. I am sure that I have missed something simple. You wrote " If you just toggle without going into MyView, it seems like it gives you the main 5". Yup, happens every time. Could somebody tell me HOW to "go into...
  9. Radio Stayed on when door opened

    I SWEAR that my 2025 Maverick Lariat Hybrid (after shutting off) used to play the radio until I opened the door. It would stop playing the instant I would open the door. THEN, after a few months, it started to continue playing for two seconds then it would shut off. Weird. I used to use the...
  10. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    NO. Do NOT press the brake. To get to the ON (but not start) mode you press the start button WITHOUT the brake. Maybe I should do a video.
  11. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    Sorry. If you ever find yourself driving through the Baltimore/DC area give me a shout.
  12. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    No. Don't complain. Mine was off by 12% to 15%. Indicated much higher than actual. Now I hover between 2.5% over and under.
  13. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    No worries. It is NOT intuitive. It seems weird but does work.
  14. MPG Correction Tutorial - AFE Bias Adjustment (via Engineering Test Mode)

    Brian, Mine is a 2025 Lariat Hybrid and it works fine for me. Don
  15. When are you doing your first Hybrid oil change?

    Oil changed starting at 10:17:21 EDT I am both east and west of the International dateline. 5800 miles East of the IDT 13800 miles West of the IDT (Following 37 N latitude line rather than the Great Circle Route) OLM% was 27% (BTW. Even though reset to 100% on the truck it has not updated on...
  16. When are you doing your first Hybrid oil change?

    OK. I am going to be a PITA. The title of the thread was "When". That was today. The title also reads "first oil change". Therefore there was no previous oil change.
  17. When are you doing your first Hybrid oil change?

    The decision regarding when to do the first oil change should ALWAYS involve a Tarot card reading.
