Im wondering what my gauges will look like on my Mav
Ive seen 2 different gauges, the digital dashes at the bottom for temperature and fuel, and the analog sweeping gauges.
My mav is a hybrid xlt with luxury package. and 360
This is an XLT, with the sweeping gauges, but Ive also seen with the...
Yes. I believe its because they want to hang on to it for awhile, so more people can test drive it. I think itll be their only dealer truck for a long time
I got to test drive my first maverick.
Ive got the Thank my salesman Broderick, and his dealership, Superior Ford in Plymouth MN, for allowing me to drive this beauty. Ive already ordered a hybrid XLT, way back in June, and want to know how it felt on the road. Which to me , felt alot like a...
There really isnt much risk. I was told if For any reason, I didnt like it, when it comes in... the dealership would gladly take it and refund my deposit.
There are no hybrids which can be driven right now, and probably not for a long time. The 22 production is almost sold out, and dealerships...
Its hard to see , on the video of the engine compartment, but the oil fill cap, has 5w30 on it. I dont know why the focus was off, but I saw it while taking the vid. I wonder if they are using 5w30, or the cap is a leftover from the parts bin
yep.
But im solely talking about the analog guage on the left, the power meter. Not the center digital screen. Ive seen at least 3 different power meters, and im wonder which will be the final production gauge
I think Ive seen at least 3 different power gauges on the hybrid. Im wondering what the final production gauge will look like.
The power gauge the the gauge on the left side of the dash, on a hybrid. Im thinking this is the simplest and latest version Ive seen
It was a good day. The dealership, Superior Ford in Plymouth, MN, had a Lariet, in my color, Cactus Grey. It looks as good as I hoped.
I got so distracted I didn't tape measure much.
For sure, the back windows go all the way down.
The rep seemed to think all trim levels get the shark fin...
Toyota hybrids are slightly different. No tach, just the power meter. It gives feedback on how much power the driver is asking for. There is a separate EV button, where the driver can anticipate conditions, and ask for electric only. But the computer will always be in charge.
You can learn...
Going to the dealer on Monday the 23rd. They notifed me of its availability. No driving no sitting in it, but Im assuming I can take pictures :LOL:
Any requests?
I saw an ineresting article this morning , explaining why there are 2 battery systems on the hybrid. The large, traction battery, which powers the electric motors, and the normal 12 volt system.

On my Toyota hybrid, the 12 volt battery boots the computer when you turn the key to start. The ready light will light up. From there on the computer is in charge, of whether or not to start the ice
From what I've seen, no one recommends jump starting another vehicle with a hybrid. But you only...
