Yeah I honestly have never heard a good reason why people should care if other people get an Ev yet without fail there is always a fight lol. But at least ford seems to be listening and at least trying to make more reasonable trucks and more trucks for different people. Of course it won't be the...

(just joking around no one take this seriously)

Fair enough and sorry tone is damn near impossible to read in text

Why are you so mad? Did I spend your money on this truck without knowing it? Also the lariat isn't 22k above comparable mavs. Like an optioned hybrid awd xlt is like 40k mrsp and once you add in tax you are within throwing distance of a lariat so I decided to upgrade. I didn't buy the lariat...

I guess? I know there isn't a gun to my head but losing money and not being super in love with the other options on the market make it imo a harder choice then just sell it. So I wanted to hear what other maverick owners thought in terms of could these problems be solved and or do they get...

So lots of different ideas and thoughts and first off thanks for all the input. And second I think the plan of action I am going take is to try and get the dealer to fix the rattle if that works out then I will likely keep the mav and see how it fares ie if more rattles pop up just call it...

That is totally fair and had I had these problems with the 25 I likely wouldn't have bought another one however aside from a small clicking noise that went away it basically trouble free. And given how much I enjoyed the rest of it I decided to get another one. Granted I only put 8k miles on it...

Honestly this is my main worry that even if the ones right now can fixed that more will pop up over time. Guess there is no way to know the future though.

Guess we will have to agree to disagree but yeah I think you make a good point in terms of keeping the mav since it is the best option from an efficiency stand point as really is it the main option that is really trying.

We could also start making trucks that are more efficient in their design. And the plug in hybrid ranger already gets around 30 ish miles of all electric driving and even if you do need to run the engine for a bit during your commuting doing 25 miles on battery and 5 on gas is going to be more...

Personally I think the tacoma hybrid is just a bad hybrid and doesn't make the idea of hybrids in midsized trucks a bad one you just need to change how you do them ie a larger battery and very likely a plug in. Because while yes the mpg would be similar to a normal ice truck when the battery...

The canyons are nice but man that mpg hit would be hard. Really wanting to see the hybrid midsize market take off in the next few years. Ford please bring the plug in ranger to the states.

Cool I will make sure to pick up some felt tape. I will also try that on the scuffs. Thinking I am going to get a replacement piece of trim just to learn on first though. Also as someone who has chased rattles and noises in the maverick would you say that you think most if not all could be...

What is your plan for dealing with the lose clips? I have seen some people use like a felt tape but I am not sure how well that work. And good point on if I like the rest I should probably just fix the rattles. Just wish that I could fix the dang scuffs lol.

I would be a bit worried about them making the problem worse but I guess not doing anything isn't a good answer.

This is a pretty interseting idea. The problem or at least worry I have is that the 25 isn't any better I just got a good one but I guess being able to test one would increase the chances of finding a good one. I will look around and see what 25s are on the market.

Guess the noises would be quieter underwater lol.

So I recently got a 2026 ford maverick hybrid lariat and it is replacing a 2025 in the same spec that was totaled so I thought I knew what I was in for with mavs. You know the scuffy plastic and what not but this new mav has basically broken me. It started with a slight buzz in the drivers door...

My go to is to use Optimum No Rinse mixed with water at a dilation of 1:128. With how little takes to even make a bottle of 16oz of cleaner it is super cheap. to clean with it I normally have two microfibers and I spray the product onto one of them wipe down with that and then dry with the other...

I agree. One of the biggest reasons I got it over other trucks was that it will serve me well no matter what I do like if I go to college and don't really need a truck all that much no problem still getting 40mpg and have an easy to drive and park truck. If I go trades I got a truck that handle...
