I replaced my original roof antenna(7" i believe) with a 13" antenna that came with the pieces to adapt it to any vehicle. It did help the FM reception but I can't tell much difference on AM. Amazon has virtually every size from stubby 3" to 20" that work on the roof mount. I chose 13" as a...

My dealership insists it's not a sensor. At this point they have spent so much in labor they could have replace the entire system and been ahead! f1jim

My 2025 Lariat started having issues with the TPMS system about 1.5 months ago. Got a notice on the dash and the front left tire shows nothing. It's intermittent so I took it to the dealer(Serramonte Ford in Colma, CA) and then took it to the dealer, then took it to the dealer....... Afte...

Just updated my Ford app and it fixed the missing fuel level issue. f1jim

I also didn't show the fuel level in my app so I force stopped the app, cleared the cache, uninstalled then reinstalled the app. No change. Still no fuel level showing. f1jim

I'd love to match up Michelin mats with Michelin tires!!! 2025 Maverick Hybrid Lariat. Spray in bed liner. Thanks f1jim

You will have a ball. I did a road trip the other way, from near San Francisco to Coleman, TX and averaged 40mpg round trip. You will love the range of your Maverick and just follow your usual oil change interval. A thousand miles here or there won't matter much. Snacks and grinks will be...

I am 70 and have owned 6 pickups in my life. My early pickups all had drop in liners. The last 3 have all had spray on liners. I like spray on liners for their anti-corrosive properties and the fact they don't really use up much bed space as opposed to the drop ins. As I have aged and my...

Hi 2025 Hybrid Lariat No drop in liner. Thanks f1jim

Mabett doesn't make this locking cubby door and yopu can find the identical unit on either Temu or AliExpress for a lot cheaper. f1jim

I have two camping fetishes. I have 37 tents and about 45 camping stoves. Anyone want to buy a tent? I have micro backpacking models to giant North Face Himalayan Hotels. f1jim

I got the adapter recommended here and just as was stated it connected on the first try and I was elated. Next question for those nice enough to give me the straight skinny....Was there a recommended video or written tutorial that you used to start making changes? I feel like I am already more...

The only problem with downloading map data instead of live mapping is you won't get many of the features that come with using live data. Traffic notifications, updated opening closing times for restaurants, gas stations, etc. Still it probably beats excess data charges. f1jim

Anything special you had to do or did it connect right out of the box with the Forscan software?

My dealer (Serramonte Ford) did the work last week. It took an hour and I was shocked how quickly they finished. Said they topped off my fluids, too. f1jim

My neighbor plugged the front tire on his Explorer with one of these screw type repairs......2 years ago!!! He and I are both amazed. It looks like the repair will outlast the tread life. (Michelin Defenders). It prompted me to get a set to keep in my car along with my usual plugging set. f1jim

The reviews on YouTube, some from Michelin, claim the CC3 meets or exceeds the CC2 on every metric. Seems like a slam dunk to bring it here. f1jim

Oddly, several tests show the CC2's at the top of the heap for rolling resistance. Can't explain the reports of lost MPG. Should be better. f1jim
