  1. Maverick is a cruising machine!

    Cruising up the Beartooth Highway at the Montana/Wyoming border 10000+ feet of altitude. Headed to the North Entrance to Yellowstone. The Wolfbox works quite well. Tremor even better!
  2. Maverick is a cruising machine!

    Hand calculated this morning and averaged 27 MPG over the last 240 miles. Fuel gauge is odd to be seems to read low but still has plenty of fuel. Good piece of 80 MPH ND and MT, keeps up easily and soaks up road irregularities very well. Drove thru a large rainstorm and the tires gripped very well.
  3. Maverick is a cruising machine!

    Superior to Devlis Lake today. Hit 30 MPG on the lie-O-meter. Will hand calculate tomorrow at next fill. Great ride all the way, plenty oomph for passing. Again mostly 70 MPH speed limits.
  4. Maverick is a cruising machine!

    Just over 400 miles today all 65 and up. Burlington to Superior WI. Tremor soaks up road breaks and construction bumps. Android Auto for navigation works fine and listened to Audible Harry Potter all the way. 27.5 MPG average on the lie-O-meter.
  5. US automotive sector faces looming synthetic oil crisis..😯

    Motorcraft does sell a "full synthetic" fully up to the Ford specifications. You just have to ask for it.
  6. Hermosillo must be kickin it in high gear! Acres of Mavericks spotted

    If you were watching in late June you might have seen my Tremor!
  7. Mav at the Boat Launch🚤🤗

    AWD only no 4WD lock or rear diff lock. Front tire spinning and I'd bet the unseen rear also at times. As light as some pontoon barges can be that one is 18 or 20 feet with a bigger engine. Near maxed out even with the optional 4K towing.
  8. Wireless Android Auto device

    As said, early use and still learning, but the 2017 Sync 1 connects fine with my phone via Bluetooth, I stream all my music and audio that way in the 2017 F150. I even removed the AM/FM. The Tremor though is is my first use of AA.
  9. Do you get a new alignment when getting new tires?

    I have done quite regular yearly alignments on my 2017 F150, all at a local independent shop. I sunk a lot of $$$$ into the suspension and want it kept healthy. They will check my alignment after every tire swap because they know what I want. They only charge actual time spent setting up and...
  10. Wireless Android Auto device

    May be a silly comment, my own early first use of Android Auto. I just connect wirelessly from my Samsung S23 and use Android Auto for navigation with Google Maps, streaming music from Pandora, audio books on Audible, and hands free phone calls. Phone is fully updated and the 2026 Maverick...
  11. Why are spare tires disappearing from new cars?🤦‍♂️

    Tremor has even a bigger difference, Tire Size: / R Change to a new wheel...
  12. US automotive sector faces looming synthetic oil crisis..😯

    Not to get into a debate about real vs fake synthetic oils just adding info. https://blog.amsoil.com/100-synthetic-oil-vs-full-synthetic-oil-whats-the-difference/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21521695621&gclid=CjwKCAjwmozTBhAeEiwAkEGZzm-2W3YsZWxhKqDLADGGQZSQpKm_T4ojTxrh3qU2iV9MTNkaRWC3rxoCNoMQAvD_BwE
  13. Why are spare tires disappearing from new cars?🤦‍♂️

    As for the keypad, I did option one in the Tremor order. Wireless keypad easy install, just have not gotten to including it yet.
  14. US automotive sector faces looming synthetic oil crisis..😯

    Linked to an Amsoil blog but you forgot to mention Amsoil SS is a Group 4 with some ester Group 5 to carry additives.
  15. US automotive sector faces looming synthetic oil crisis..😯

    Lot of concern from the posted article. But it did not mention the more advanced synthetic oils sold. These use Group 4 base oils built up from natural gas, or PAO base oil. Most of this base is supplied by Chevron and other chemical plants. The process is quite different from crude oil...
  16. Experiences with replacement tires?

    Only 1100 miles so far but those do impress me also! I have had several brands of AT tires on other trucks, my favorites are Nokian Finnish Co the produces tires in Dayton TN. And Nitto specifically the G3 tires on my F150, Quieter than the Michelin Defender OEM, better grip wet/dry. Gotta...
  17. Recommendations for Cat-back exhausts?

    Mine is too new and need Cathy's permission, but having been a Road Racing fan for over 50 years I'm accustomed to the sound of 2 liter twin cam HP engines. I do enjoy that!
  18. Any one running a tune on their Tremor? How do you like it?

    Been looking and seems all I have looked into have not yet released a 2026 tune including COBB. I am a patient man and will wait!
  19. Why are spare tires disappearing from new cars?🤦‍♂️

    8th grade 1965, assignment write and present a report on a job or function in daily life. I chose "changing a tire" to the class, got an A on the assignment!
