Cruisinā through the Costco parking lot today I heard a couple gals together say, āOh what a cute truck!ā
Which I acknowledged with, āI love it!ā
Iām glad theyāre a hit. :clap:
^^^^^^ I think so too!
When I had my white XL, a buddy showed up in a brand new XLT in Desert Sand. I went, āDāoH!ā Envy envy covet covet!
When I went shopping after being hit and totaled, my favorite local Ford dealer had ONE 2025 gasser left in that color, and a bunch of hybrids I wasnāt...
Not in my experience. Yes the bumper absorbed energy: the damage looked superficial. The frame rail was crumpled anyway.
Now replaced with an XLT with a hitch, Iām thinking of putting something in it:
Upgraded to a new XLT 2025. Thanks Allstate (the other guyās insurance company). Worked out well actually. Now I have a moonroof, and all the controls are in the same place! :clap:
I got a fairly thick Ford Maverick rubber pad. Paid for by points when I bought mine new.
I used some caulking to glue it down, but I doubt it wouldāve blown out: pretty heavy and fit well.
My 2025 XL got rear ended by a 1 ton Dodge pickup.
Totaled.
It gave itself up to save my neck and back.
I think in about five days itāll be settled and I plan to get another Maverick. You betcha! :muscle::cool:
@ GB āThatās the spirit.ā
Book is not much help.
The IT stuff is intuitive, but only after you guess right!
So far with this vehicle: book = 0
Asking here: = +2!
My geezerly intuition: = -2. :facepalm:
2025 XL 2.0 EcoBoost.
Itās a learning curve!
So far so good but Iām suspicious: like when your new Labrador puppy is being too quietā¦
ā¦wondering what I inadvertently signed up for with a monthly service charge while pushing icons. :crazy:
My nine year old grandson lives eight hours away.
That could take days driving metric!
Fortunately I was able to do as recommended above.
I still canāt back to that setting.
Great lilā olā vehicle, but my fuel mileage plunges as I push buttons every time I get to a parking lot. Sheesh!š
Old geezer straying from Old Farts club needs tech advice from young fart.
Newby that I am, seems -in my button pushing neophyte apprenticeship- I somehow changed my speedometer to metric (with the āmerican mph in smaller).
I go to settings: reset to MPH: but it still wants metric dominant...
For entertainment, Iāve been known to to reset mpg going down a long hill on the highway. The computer stays confused for a few miles after doing that: outstanding mileage (for a little while). :wink:
First week I had my EcoBoost 2.0 XL I measured (old school: actual gallons/miles) and got 26.6mpg.
After that I watched the infotainment screen etc. and saw 26 around town and 34.1 highway.
Then I turned it off and just do calm screen etc. and when I check it always says 34.1mpg.
I canāt wait to...
