  1. Just installed PowerBass replacement speakers and tweeters - wow!

    I always thought the stock XLT speakers were decent enough, but I have a long road trip coming up so I decided to give the speakers an upgrade. Very impressed with these. Very reasonable price and it only took about an hour to install all 4 speakers (2 in doors, 2 tweeters in dash). No cutting...
  2. Cool old Maverick Grabber

    Saw this on another forum. Just thought it was a pretty sweet looking old model. I also think it would be cool if Ford resurrected the name "Grabber" for a special edition Maverick truck, but I'm guessing the word has negative connotations these days.
  3. Wow, Lowe's, this is acceptable dryer installation?

    Techs refused to properly vent the dryer out the side so they left me with this. Despite a half dozen calls to the company no one will come out to do it right. Saving this pic for the insurance claim when the house burns down… to clarify what youre looking at, this is the left side of the...
  4. Who HASN'T experienced the dash rattle/rubbing?

    Curious -- I get a little clunk from under the dash when bounding over speed bumps and some ruts, but -- knock on wood -- I've never experienced any constant/annoying dash sounds. Am I alone here? Late 2022 build, about 12K miles on the truck so far.

  6. C/D article & render of possible Toyota Corolla based pickup truck to compete with Maverick

    Honestly looks awful but would probably sell decently enough, as long as Toyota realizes that the price/value of the Maverick is what makes it a hit. Price it too high and I doubt it will do all that well. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a44870696/toyota-corolla-pickup-rumor/
  7. Maverick vs. Maserati

    So I was driving along today and in the lane beside me was a +/-4 year old Maserari sedan in the lane next to me. And it occurred to me... My Maverick is probably worth more. lol
  8. Square nuts for inside bed rail tracks?

    I'm looking for some nuts that will slide into the bedrails. Anyone already found any that are good fit? Ideally stainless. TIA!
  9. Questionable dealers get some heat!

    Hopefully it wasn't anyone here in the MTC family that got hosed by these guys. https://jalopnik.com/two-ford-dealers-sold-custom-ordered-mavericks-and-clai-1850692146
  10. I95 Trip report -- 2356 miles

    Just to add some data and opinions to the group... I just took a weeklong trip from SWFL to the Washington DC area. 2356.2 miles total. I started with a full tank and burned 65.149 gallons for a true MPG score of 36.16. The instrument cluster was a bit optimistic showing 38.3mpg. 85% of the...
  11. What would be your ideal EV?

    Keeping possible power grid concerns, politics about EVs, etc. OUT of the conversation, what would you consider to be the ideal EV to get you out of your ICE vehicle, or at least add an EV to your garage? What are your priorities or must haves? And what kind of vehicle would you want it in? For...

  14. Specs on the Maverick HD Tow model?

    Does anyone know if Ford has released the specs on the new towing model? I've read it will have a bigger engine -- maybe a V6? -- but that's all I've seen.
  15. Got my unicorns hitched up

    Not a camping combo for the introverted... between the truck and the camper I get a lot of people talking to me. Into the Florida wilds we go!
  16. Paid our Mav the ultimate compliment today...

    Wife and I were out running errands and on a whim picked up a mega-millions ticket. That's not something we usually do, but for the $2 it's fun to dream a bit, right? So we were talking about where we'd buy the mansion, how big of a boat we'd get, and all that stuff. And after all that I gave...
  17. Battery gauge?

    Maybe I've just missed it, or maybe it's a setting I haven't found, but is there a screen/setting that shows the level of charge in the hybrid battery? TIA.
  18. Suggestion for Ford: FordPass app should include driving journal function that tracks miles driven and fuel economy

    I've been enjoying my Maverick for 6 weeks now and have one suggestion for Ford that I think would make the experience even better -- that is if the FordPass app be updated to include a driving journal function that tracks miles driven and fuel economy. I think this would be great info for all...
  19. Show what you tow...

    We got rid of my 6-speed manual Tacoma so that my wife could drive on trips when we tow our little teardrop. It's only about 450 lbs loaded up so it's no problem for our hybrid. What do you all tow with your Mav?
  20. First Parking Kiss... argh

    So we went out for breakfast this AM and a few minutes after we parked this old guy (FL driver, probably close to 90) backs into the spot next to mine. Well, tried to. Argh. I flagged down some police officers that were also coming in for breakfast and they helped find the driver in the...
