My wife's Escape 2020 Hybrid had all kinds of battery issues and went into deep sleep, and I put it on a maintainer when she was not driving it for a week. Her 2024 Escape Hybrid has not had battery issues; I have put it on once for 24 hours a couple months ago and have not needed it since...

Points: Sorry I wasn't clear. The post I responded to mentioned a Ford dealership in Wichita that still puts window tint (and door edge guards) on all new vehicles to increase their profit. First, that questionable practice is still relevant to current buyers because they should not pay for...

Kansas tint law requires 35% or more light transmission on side and rear windows and on the windshield only above the AS1 line, and be nonreflective. Police have light detection meters, will ticket, and force removal. BTW, tinting is an expensive ADM joke, as it only darkens the glass for...

I will check it out. Thanks!

I feel your pain, literally. After a heart attack and quad bypass, my ability to get into and out of my 2021 F150 Lariat even with electric AMP Research boards has become difficult, as is parking it in the city. My wife is also having trouble getting in and out so we are looking for a small...

The 2025 Maverick Lariat is overpriced for what is in it. IMO, I think people buy a Lariat because of the appearance, upgrades, conveniences, and maybe prestige over the XL and XLT. The Lariat has the same 2.0 and/or Hybrid engines and transmissions as the XL or XLT. The Maverick Lariat does...

Our six month old Ford Fiesta's grill took a huge chunk of ice flying off a semi on the Interstate at night in another State. Didn't look that bad, some broken grill work. Fan and radiator looked fine. Limped into a nearby Ford dealer who spent a week fixing it at $800. Got it home as the...

Hawley? Wow. I was born in Carbondale. My Aunt was a Seeley and with my Uncle owned Seeley's Landing. Beautiful lake. Still have relatives all over the area. Small world.

Is this mirror kit available elsewhere for those of us who do not use PayPal?

Ford built an inexpensive and very nice truck that I hope to acquire in early 2026, yet with what is now MSRP for a Lariat or Tremor the autodim mirror and a left side assist handle should be included in those packages. I am a geezer, yes, and have trouble getting in and out of vehicles but...

I prepay for oil changes/tire rotation at purchase.. Due to unpredictable price increases, it pays for itself @ 25,000 miles, changing every 5K.

My wife's 2024 Escape Hybrid AWD had the same noise. It was the half shaft sticking on the AWD but not with FWD. It was delivered that way despite Louisville knowing it was a problem. Dealer knew what it was per a tech bulletin. The solution was longer bolts (had to order them, 3 days wait)...

No worries. I have been down this road for a while now. There is one at Tri Lakes in Branson, MO, I would buy but they won't dealer trade, although it is for sale even with a Special Order Green Window Sticker. There is a Velocity Blue one at O'Meara in Denver. Blue sticker. Won't trade. I...

Looks very good but not a Hybrid. Dang. Most of the Lariat Hybrids w/Black Appearance I can find have Green Window Stickers.

Thanks. I will check it out.

Mind sharing what your Tremor is like? I have owned two Ford Ranger Supercabs (a 1997 3L and a 2003 4L) and two F 150 Supercabs, a 2010 FX4 with a V8 and my current 2021 Lariat with the 3.5L EcoBoost.

You are absolutely correct. Sorry. My fault for not correctly reading the Courier-Journal article on retooling for the Maverick EV in 2027. The dealers have product but they won't trade a 2025 Lariat Hybrid to a buyer in another State. I can't drive far anymore to get one and was willing to...

Won't take that bet. Lots of chatter in the Louisville Courier about picking up production orders because Hermasillo cannot meet demand. With a 25% tariff supposed to go in effect August 1, lots of speculation on that. The 2026 Maverick and other US vehicles made in Mexico get very pricey even...

Hello, everyone. I am a new member, been on the Ford Gen 14 F150 forum for years. I am a geezer now and my wife gently tells me I am having difficulty parking my 2021 F150 Lariat Supercab (only 26,000 mi) when we drive into town. Went to my Ford dealer and drove two Maverick XLTs to check...
