  1. Maverick cab size works for me!

    I traded a Colorado for a Mavercik because my wife would not drive the Chevy. It was harder to get into even with nerf bars and the shell on the bed made it hard to see out when backing up. The Maverick is ideal. Easy to get into and drives like a car. Happy wife happy life.
  2. ECO Mode vs Normal Mode

    I tried eco mode for a while then normal mode but I can't tell any difference in MPG or performance so why push the mode button three times?
  3. Ford $30K Electric Truck. A winner?

    The up side of an electric truck or car is that it cost much less to charge than a gas truck costs to fill up. The down side is that there are not enough level 3 charging stations if you need to go more than a couple of hundred miles round trip. My wife drives an electric SUV with a range of...
  4. Post Your Other Rides / Vehicles

    1971 Triumph Stag. I have a long love/hate relationship with British sports cars.
  5. From Tesla Model S to Maverick XLT Hybrid AWD

    Have not done a cost analysis on my Maverick but on the electric it costs me about $15 in electricity per week to charge it vs. $50 in gas. I call that a win.
  6. More info on 12v battery system on hybrid (2022 model)

    Battery issues have been covered on this site MANY times. Just throwing in my 2 cents. The after market alarm system will be another drain on your 12V battery. I had this issue with an electric car and had the alarm system removed. When I bought my Maverick I declined the alarm system the...
  7. From Tesla Model S to Maverick XLT Hybrid AWD

    I understand the range anxiety issue. My wife drives an electric car (not Tesla) which fits her in town driving quite nicely. For a road trip, however, not so much. Not being a Tesla and thus not having access to Tesla's charging network makes it even more of a problem. When trying to plan a...
  8. Gas Gauge Accuracy

    2022 XLT Hybrid. I bought my truck used so I haven't had it very long. Recently I let my gas gauge go to 1/8 tank before I filled it up. I put 13.0 gal in the 13.8 gal tank. 1/8 of a tank should be approx. 1.7 gal. so I had about half as much in the tank as I thought. If I had been lazy...
  9. Genius 5 Battery Charger Repair Mode

    I bought my 23 XLT used so I don't know its history. I have been getting notifications on my phone that some features have been shut off to conserve the battery. This leads me to think my 12V battery is getting weak. Looking at the manual for the Genius 5 charger, it said that it would send...
  10. Electric vs. All Electric display

    OK but I sometimes get the "ALL ELECTRIC" when I am driving.
  11. Electric vs. All Electric display

    2023 XLT Hybred. I get a blue "ELECTRIC" display on my dash when the ICE shuts off and the truck is running on battery. I understand that part. However, sometimes I get another blue display "ALL ELECTRIC'. What does "ALL ELECTRIC vs. just "ELECTRIC" mean?
  12. Installing extra USB charging ports

    I would like to install extra USB charging ports in my 2023 XLT next to the power port. See red circle in photo. Does anyone know how the plastic panel comes out so I can drill a mounting hole and access the wiring?
  13. Remote start in FordPass app

    Thanks for the reply. my manual has it on page 125. However, when I go to settings / vehicle/ ... There is no further option for climate control. So I guess I am doomed to getting into a hot truck.
  14. Remote start in FordPass app

    I don't have a remote start on my key fob but I can start my truck with the FordPass app. I tried this while in Phoenix (hot day). It started OK but did not turn on the A/C which is what I wanted. Is there a setting that will allow the A/C to start with the app?
