I drove my 25 Hybrid up highway 130 from San Antonio to Georgetown last year. While most of that road is 80 MPH, there is a portion of it from I-10 northward that's 85. The only downside was my MPG dropped to the low 20s while doing 85.
The Dog will be in Port Lavaca, TX over Memorial Day weekend with some other warbirds for BBQ and fun. Have a safe season. We'll be at Oshkosh in late July. Are any of your planes going?
Club Car Wash has locations in several mid west states. Pay a monthly fee and get a wash anytime you want. I signed up for a 3-month promotional deal and they entered my Mav into their system as a Ford Aerostar. When I opened up a support ticket online to have it corrected, their response was...
I have found this little gem handier than magnetic inserts because it doesn't fill half the socket with a magnet. One tool for all sockets, SAE or Metric Madness...
My Mav gets 40+ MPG around town and I can't complain. I had to drive to San Antonio from Georgetown a couple of weeks ago to deliver a package (about 120 miles). On the way down at freeway speeds (70-75) I got about 38 MPG. Due to traffic congestion, on the way back I traversed Toll 130 from...
I have a 25 Hybrid and it's the first vehicle that I have every owned where the cruise control is rock solid on whatever speed I set. I assume it's related to the electric motor/generator torque being applied when needed at highway speeds. If I set it at 70 or 75 and go up or down overpasses...

An update - the alignment is fixed. It turns out, the hood was aligned but the fender was not. The hood hinge fastens to the body with two 13mm bolts which are accessible with the door open. However, the fender well is also bolted to the hinge with a 10mm bolt which is underneath the rubber...
My 2025 Mav has terrible hood alignment with the body. The hinge alignment at the rear of the hood are well below the fenders. See below. It's worse on the driver's side but still low on the passenger side. I want to raise the hinges on both sides to properly align the hood to the fender...
I bought my Mav in May of this year and connected it to my home wifi network the day I parked it in my garage. I just checked tonight, and it is definitely on my network. It has not received an update since day 1. Perhaps I am too used to regular Windoze and Linux updates on my computers and...
