Ha! Was thinking that myself! Wouldn’t it be cool if Ford offered a 18% Grey as a paint option on the Mav? Just think, you could set white balance perfect every time you snapped a pic of your ride!
If’n you got good credit, you should be able to get in the low 3% range pretty much anywhere. Maybe even lower..? When I bought mine, I told them to not come back with anything above 3 something.
I doubt it saves much in gas overall. I mean really all it does is make the throttle less responsive, and shift points lower in the RPM range right? A guy could do the same thing with the old kicker.. I mean, you could just drive like gas costs $4 a gallon…..wait….☹️
Mine seemed really dim when I bought the truck, but now it’s fine. Maybe I’m just used to it, or it brightened up after being used these last couple months… I don’t know…
I was driving around with the wife today and a very attractive woman walking across the parking lot was staring and smiling at us. My wife said ‘damn, that girl is checking you out!’…… I said nah, babe…. It’s the truck. 😢
She wanted it…..lol
It’s hard to steal the gas without the thingy you put in the thingy. You know, the thingy they give you that’s stored in the thingy. How many gas thief’s carry a thingy with them?
Oh for sure there’s a noticeable difference. My ‘17 Escape had sport mode with the paddle shifters and it was fun to drive and very peppy. I’ve watched a few videos on YouTube with the Mav doing speed runs but I don’t think any of them have really compared the difference or even noted which mode...
If we could get two Mav’s side by side, one in sport mode, the other in eco and some 0-60 and flat out drag races that would be awesome. Let’s see what the difference really is!
Take it to the dealer and have your battery replaced. Mine was doing the same thing from day one. The sales manager told me unless the battery is operating at peak performance, the stop start system won’t work all the time. They replaced it within the first week. Since then it’s been working 100%.
Don’t worry. The only guys calling it a “trucklette” are the ones driving $80,000 bro-dozers with $40,000 worth of useless “mods” trying to keep up with the Instagram flat brim cap crowd. The Mav can do 90% of what they use their status symbols for at 1/4 the price.
Well, Sir, I do have my Maverick, and it came with a manual. I’m curious why a lot of people come to the internet for answers they can find in the book included with the truck. No offense to you personally.
