  1. What Maverick “Upgrade” has been a Waste of Time/Money/Both?

    The fold out tailgate ladder. I rarely used it and it was always in the way.
  2. Rear License Plate Mount Location?

    I'm old enough to remember when a lot of pickups had an offset license plate and only one taillight that was OEM.
  3. Beware the delicate Maverick hybrid

    Those plastic bumpers can mask damage underneath because they can pop back out. Hopefully the original repair people checked that out,
  4. Tailgate Ladder experience?

    I had one for a while. It worked fine but was just too much trouble 95% of the time. It made the tailgate heavier for my wife and harder to load stuff. I ended up taking it off. A little folding step seems like it would be better.
  5. Deep Sleep FIX - Maverick Hybrid 12V battery - One Year Update

    I installed the Uplus battery from Amazon almost 3 months ago and have had no warnings since. I ran the battery calibration after installing.
  6. The First Mavericks

    Had mine since April 22 and have only 18K miles. No issues outside of recalls until this month when the service light came on. They replaced the shift dial. I put an AGM battery in and have had no battery warnings since.
  7. Do you enjoy driving your Maverick?

    I took a drive on a really curvy road yesterday. The Mav really did well. I love it.
  8. the Maverick is mundane?

    A while back I used to love Jalopnik but it changed to a clickbait site. It lost a lot of good writers too. I don''t read it now.
  9. 2.0 supposed to tow up to 4K lbs. Not so!

    Probably the axles that fail anyway. Known problem.
  10. How the Maverick Ranks in Recalls (vs. Other Vehicles)

    I knew I would see recalls for my 22 hybrid because it's a new model. I got more than I expected but I still love the truck. At least I was never stranded. Knock on wood.
  11. Dial Shifter -- accidentally bumping the shifter dial and it going into neutral while driving

    I haven't done that. But it took me a while to not reach for the heater dial to change gear.
  12. 10K Oil Change Interval Confirmed OK via Oil Analysis at 8K miles [Hybrid Maverick]

    Sounds great. That's what they do on jet engines. I worked on a computer that ran the tester for the oil for Navy jets. It seems old opinions fail to die.
  13. Biggest Flaw in Design

    I'm just happy it has a lock. 2 years for me too.
  14. New Ford Maverick Lighting Kits by Diode Dynamics | 1/18/24

    It will disable the 360 lane detection if plugged into the trailer connector. I plugged a bike rack LED light in the trailer connector and that disabled the 360. So I guess that's why they have to plug into the brake light harness.
  15. Maverick Hybrid Build: HRG 1.5" lift, 17" RRW Wheels, Toyo Open Country AT3, Steeda strut tower brace, PPF & more

    Nice look. I was hoping someone would come up with metal undercarriage plates to protect the hybrid components so I don't have to.
  16. Senior citizen Maverick owners thread

    I'm 72 and have had my hybrid for 1 and a half years now. It's the first new vehicle I've bought in 45 years. I drove old Volvos and never saw the value in buying a new car since I am a gearhead and wrenched on them myself. I did have various company cars through the years though. To me the...
  17. Northern California

    Orered my xlt hybrid 9/30 at Walnut Creek Ford. Waiting..... ..
  18. Did you guys get Ford Co-Pilot 360?

    Nope. Just going to get stick on spot mirrors that I have always used.
  19. catalyst theft prevention

    Catalyst theft around here is a big problem. My order being the hybrid makes it a prime candidate. Will the skid plates protect it. If not I'll have to figure out something else.
