Check your local farm stores. They often have bed mats in stock. Otherwise, I would see if there is any cardboard you can round up, possibly at a recycling center or at an appliance store.

It's a poltergeist indicator.

Depending on the model, that's true. My previous vehicle was a 2022 Camry AWD (purchased new), and through the 60k miles I had it, it got tires and normal maintenance. It had no breakdowns and zero recalls. My Maverick has had two recalls in the 4 months I've had it. The Camry is a unibody...

Don't buy a Toyota for better road noise, ride, or more luxury. More dependable, less recalls, longer lifespan and more boring are all good reasons to consider a Toyota though.

Toyota advertises their Safety Sense 2.0 (and likely newer versions) as protecting left turns. My Camry had it and it never interfered with normal driving. I also haven't had any issues with turning on my Maverick.

For me, a Hyundai/Kia is a crapshoot. Might be ok, good chance of it not. I won't buy one. The Santa Cruz is supposed to be discontinued in 2027, but they could accelerate that.

Maybe. The Hyundai/Kia 100k powertrain warranty is for the original owner only. It drops to 60k if purchased used.

Yeah, "Dynamic Radar Cruise Control" is what Toyota calls it, and my last vehicle was a Camry with that tech. It did not have this problem, and the emergency braking worked great also. I have had it happen using both regular cruise control and adaptive. Even with the regular cruise control it...

During normal operation of the adaptive cruse, when someone is and has been directly in front of me, it gets closer then brakes. It seems to be working properly. When someone is merging, it seems to be a greater distance, the truck brakes harshly for a moment, then often resumes to the set...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking would be the case. I mentioned I didn't see or hear any warning on the dash. It would seem adaptive cruise shouldn't be doing it since it is well beyond the following distance I set. That's why I said "some form" of automatic braking ... not sure what it is.

Makes sense, but the distance between us is significantly greater than the following distance ACC allows, and is set for in my case.

That fits with my expectations, and I haven't gotten any warnings.

WEll, I guess I'm not the only one. If Ford ever sends me a survey on this vehicle I'll mention it. The industry norm is better than this from what I've experienced.

Thanks guys. Yeah, I looked at pre-collision settings and mine is in the middle setting. What gets me is the other vehicle is considerably ahead, not a risk, and maybe not even going slower. I don't see any notification on the dash. My 2022 Camry had pre-collision assist, and it never did...

2025 Lariat Hybrid. Often when another vehicle is merging into the lane in front of me, and even once when I was the one merging, my Maverick applied some form of braking automatically. I even had it occur when someone turned from a side street onto the road in the same direction as me and...

A friend has a Santa Cruz and told me his came with a roll-up tonneau cover standard, and the canister significantly reduces the usable volume of his bed. He also was frustrated that there wasn't a model available that was competitively fuel-efficient.

Discount Tire has always reprogrammed my sensors for free.

My Maverick is more than my F150, but probably because it's 3 years newer. I'm with State Farm.

It's not really an Atkison-cycle engine. It's a Miller-cycle engine. Ralph Miller never gets the credit he deserves.
