You're right; it's not much, but a sort to ground would be bad.

The wireless charger thing is a bit scary. I would put some shrink wrap around that USB connection board. I love the door handle protectors. https://amzn.to/4xiBVai

Maybe it's worth putting some tape on there or something to keep water out of the connection. Those red rubber covers that we throw away would have been perfect.

I didn't realize the non-Tremor version of the Mavericks doesn't come with a spare. Interesting. AAA or other roadside assistance is a good investment if you have the time to wait for them to come. Depending on where you are, they may take a few hours to show up. I do like your idea of...

I guess it depends on the "upgrade". In my experience, the upgrades that reduce value are the ones that "personalize" the truck (name or patriotic) and are difficult to remove.

Wanted to give an update. Got the truck back from the dealership today. $3,500.00 to get it fixed. Although a bunch of money, less than I thought. Drive like normal, and after a car wash, the "scratches" came right out. I will say the yellow bag of greatness saved my butt. You can...

@notfast 100% on the turtle wax. I have used Nu Finish Car Scratch Remover for decades https://amzn.to/4bFriWv. Wow, I just typed decades. I think you are talking about the same thing. Buffing with mechanical methods is not sustainable on the clearcoat or the paint.

it looks worse than it really is. it buffs right out.

Hello Everyone. I wanted to give an update on the repair costs from the Ford Dealership. $3600.00. I will say it's much less than I thought it would be.

Yes, a regular floor jack would have worked as well. But they are heavy, and the bag fits in my large go-bag for adventures. Agreed on Green trails. I just go "lucky" to find the right rock at the right time. Love the Johnson Valley story!

One thing that came to mind. is you need to be very careful where you place that jack and make sure the doors are closed to add strength to the unibody.

If you pay attention and don't get stupid, I agree it's a great little truck. It's not going to go places a Bronco or a Wrangler can.

2500 miles so far.

No damage that I could see. It has now hard edges. It’s basic a very thick balloon

It was my fault; I was not paying attention 100%. But you are right, the bag was great! Glad we had it.

oof, Glad you where ok.

I did not, but it does have the attachment to do so. I did not want to mess with the exhaust.

I was thinking 5K as well. fingers crossed it's not more.

I was lucky. I will make sure I share the estimate to repair

There I was out in the Mojave Desert, where I have had a 4x4 for 30+ years. I have never been stuck or hurt my vehicle. Today was that day. This was the first time, and yes, that was the rock we pulled out. In my defence, it was buried, and only the top 1/3 of the rock was above the ground. We...
