I think Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking is standard on all Mavericks, including my cruise-control-less XL, but I haven't tested AEB myself.
My Maverick has a code "21K05". Maybe the letter represents the month (K=October, assuming Ford doesn't use the letter "I") and the 05 is the day of the month? 2021/10/05 for a build date?
I have a Line-X sprayed bed liner on which I put a 3'x4' rubber mat, $37 from Tractor Supply:

It fits between the wheel wells without cutting, lets me use the floor-mounted tie-down rings I added, and I...
If by "may be different" you mean "is completely different" then I agree with you. :)
There are excellent videos on YouTube explaining how an eCVT works (same technology shared by Ford and Toyota). I like the ones by WeberAuto.
I picked up my XL two years ago, adjusted the mirrors before I drove off the dealership lot, and haven't touched them since.
They're what I call "digital mirrors" - you adjust them with your digits. (Easier to use fingers than toes.)
NJBob, I apologize for making light of your brake failures. My only related misfortune occurred when I was a teenager parking cars at a restaurant. I fetched a customer's Oldsmobile then leapt out of the car without setting the parking brake, relying on the automatic transmission which I'd set...
NJBob, if I may ask a personal question, who is the beneficiary of your will?
You've survived "brake failures" three times now... you want to think about having someone taste your food before you eat it.
I don't know if it's correct, but I like this explanation from https://suspensionsetups.com/garage/ground-clearance/
"Ground clearance is the distance between the ground and the lowest part of your vehicle’s undercarriage; excluding the tires, wheel hubs, brake plates, and mudflaps.
Depending...
I don't know where the 8.3" clearance is measured. Not at the door frame. My Blizzaks may add about 1/4" compared to my summer tires. You may have to scroll to see the entire image.
Yes my truck needs washing.
An extended cab Maverick would be nice, but if I'm giving up a usable back seat I'd want more than 6 additional inches of bed length.
The current double-cab configuration would be perfect if I had a mid-gate that let me carry longer loads on occasion.
Yes. I bought my TipTop soft tri-fold after reading a positive review of TipTop's Maverick tonneau on a Rivian. Same size bed.
It seems that Rivian had serious problems with their factory-installed roll-up so owners needed a temporary solution until the problems were resolved.
Ford does make a low-profile headrest for the Maverick - there's one in the center position.
Unfortunately the headrest posts are too close together to fit in the rear seat outboard positions, so I removed the super-sized headrests and stored them under the seat like everyone else.
Here's my Maverick in the front lot of Portsmouth Ford almost exactly two years ago. Yes, they were good to business with.
I'd have ordered your color if Velocity Blue wasn't available. I hope your new truck serves you well!
I wonder how many people who are happy with their low-beam headlights live in cities or towns with street lights.
I notice the limitations of my headlights when I slow down on my unlit street. The automatic lights switch to low-beams below a certain speed, and I override them as I worry about...
