    I didn't know that. Thanks for the update.

  2. thatsa lotsa airbags! My Maverick totaled

    I was a designer at Ford in 1969, and we were already leaving space allowances for the airbags because we didn't know when they would become a requirement. The industry fought them for a long time. Lee Iacocca was a major opponent of them. Years later, when they were mandated and started saving...

  3. 🚙 What’s the Most Unexpected Thing You’ve Hauled in Your Maverick?

    This is just the 'Quick-Start' guide. The full manual would be much thicker.

  4. Third Tailgate Position?

    Done it myself. Works just fine.

  5. NEW POLL Typical Maverick Owners Age Range ( demographics)

    S'truth!

  6. NEW POLL Typical Maverick Owners Age Range ( demographics)

    This is the most accurate categorization. I'm a 'war baby' (born just before the end of WW2. Both parents were serving -my father with a Canadian battalion, and my mother with the British Royal Engineers).

  7. The coolest Maverick pic ever! Real life size Hot Wheels XL

    ...and a REAL bumper!!! LOL

  8. What’s Something You Notice More After Owning Your Maverick for a While?

    Totally agree, except: I'm a fan of voice commands -they're really handy once you get used to using them. (Big fan of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, too!)

  9. JDPower says infotainment systems account for 25% of all new vehicle problems

    Totally agree! OTA mobile phone upgrades have been around for decades, so there's no technical excuse. But there's a 'tactical' one: When we have to go in to the dealership, we often think "since I'm going in anyway, maybe I'll just get them to ... (whatever)...". Ka-ching, ka-ching"

  10. Where to buy a beefy push bar?

    I always wondered about that. Thanks for confirming.

    Thanks!

    Your matching cap looks cool. Can you provide more details (make/model/rough price)? Thanks in advance.

  15. Incredible Fuel Economy - Even Before Break-In

    Fellow Vancouverite here ('25 Lariat Hybrid). 5.9 L is my average as well. On some commutes I get between 4 and 5 L. Can't beat the Boundary Road hill for regen braking on my return commute. Another pleasant surprise will be the effect of regen braking on brake wear.

  16. She fits.

    When I was young, and VERY foolish, I fired up my '72 Kawasaki Mach 3 and DROVE it up the ramp into the box of my '68 El Camino. Stopping in time was not quite possible. The inevitable happened, but I'm happy to report no bones were broken -just very sore for a couple of days.

  17. VW Tukan Small Pickup

    The box looks way shorter than the Maverick's. Can't see how this would be very practical.

  18. Maverick vs Fathom: What Makes You Switch?

    If they do a 'sport-wagon', I'd like to see an 'old-school' split tailgate, so we can still haul long planks and 4x8 plywood.

  19. Maverick vs Fathom: What Makes You Switch?

    I'd tend to agree about the PHEV: With increasing demand on the power grid from EVs and AI Data Server Farms, I think there's a growing risk of power shortages or major increases in electricity costs. Having an EV that can also run on gas if needed makes sense in that context. The downside of...

    "I'm sorry Dave; I can't let you do that" (For the youngsters here, that was 'Hal' the computer in the movie '2001')
