  1. Do you think XL trims will have a higher resale value over time?

    Who knows what the used vehicle market will be in 5 years. I bought a Hybrid Lariat because I wanted higher MPGs and like all the doohickeys. But to the OPs question on will the XL be worth more percentage-wise. Does anyone have any idea of how many XLs have been sold via fleet sales to...
  2. Is there any change in the bed from 2022 -2024?

    The dimensions of the bed haven't changed from 2022 to 2024. That said, when the 2022 Mavericks first were being sold there were reports of a few tonneau covers being a bit short. Some of these reports may have been folks not centering the cover front to back, as it seems these issues have died...
  3. Adjustable Head Rests

    The Lariat headrests have 4 levels of adjustments forward and back. I adjust mine when I'm on a longer trip occasionally to prevent a stiff neck (I'm getting older) or when I adjust the reclining seat, lumbar support, etc. Perhaps you could get the headrests form a totaled Lariat, although I...
  4. Hybrid takes longer (than EcoBoost) from order to delivery??

    Both the XL trim level and the Hybrid make this a harder vehicle to get. Plus how many Maverick allocations your dealer has adds into the mix. All this affects when your order maybe chosen for production. Ford is not building as many XLs percentage-wise verse higher-profit XLT and Lariat...
  5. Motortrend's Maverick also rear-ended 🤣 [here's how much it cost to fix]

    Mavericks getting in accidents is going to happen as more and more are on the roads, but specifically it seems there's been a trend of more read-ended accidents reported here. Some of those seemingly minor accidents resulted in the Maverick being totaled. MotorTrend bought a Maverick months ago...
  6. Maverick Hybrid engine break in?

    As long as your aren't racing around in it or towing near max, you'll be fine. Mine is smooth but noticed there's more engine and exhaust noise during our recent cold snap. Someone more scientific than me can explain why these sounds are more noticeable in the winter. During the summer most...
  7. Video: 2022 Maverick Hybrid 2 Year Review - Would I Do It Again?

    Thanks for your many Maverick videos Shay! And especially providing honest feedback on its reliability, recalls and other pluses/minuses.
  8. How to remove the Hybrid postive terminal cap? (Answered)

    I had located the positive terminal/red cap and an unpainted bolt last Fall but never tried to remove the red terminal cap. Its -10 here and now I have a dead battery (first time). How to you remove the red terminal cap? I've pressed on the front tab while lifting, and prying on the sides but...
  9. New Member

    Hi Rod, welcome to MTC! Looks like you've done alot of appearance/lifeguard functional modifications. Have you upgraded anything in the Hybrid drivetrain? I noticed the 2 exhaust exits under the rear bumper. And what size tire/rims are those? From the photos it seems the tires may have...
  10. Patching the holes at the bottom of my tailgate

    This version seems nicer than the others I've seen elsewhere. Just ordered the black vented version. Had no problem processing order on the Square site. Thanks to the forum members who developed this cover! (y)
  11. Crazy prices on Maui!

    Crazy price...but woo-hoo, I noticed it even has the Lux Pkg (I noticed the heated seats/steering wheel buttons in one photo). Just what Mr MonkeyBags needs when going to the top of Mt Haleakala on a cool morning! (just kidding). I visited your wonderful island 30+ years ago. Did all the...
  12. Quick question on the order window

    They haven't totally closed ordering like they did for the 2022/2034 model years. As Waterick & Gray Goose stated above, dealership allocations play a key role. As does finding dealership personnel that can enter an order correctly and ongoing trim-level/option constraints. Adding the 3rd...
  13. Hello from Chicagoland

    Welcome Malort, and all you other Chicagoland Mav owners! I'm in Elmhurst so somewhat near many of you. If you haven't already noticed it, there's a Chicagoland Owners group on this site. Just click on the "Clubs" icon in the top bar and look for us. As someone mentioned above, I started to...
  14. FordPass app service icons?

    My guess is it denotes a Ford (or Lincoln) dealership with the Quick Lane for oil changes, tires, etc. But that's just a guess as when I've seen that same icon on a dealer's website it has been blue, not orange.
  15. Maverick wins Car & Driver Best 10 Award 2024

    In addition to the KKB award recently given to the Maverick, Car&Driver magazine has included the Maverick in its "Best10 Trucks and SUVs for 2024". Only 2 trucks this year amid a sea of SUVs. I didn't search for previous year C&D Best10 lists, but I seem to remember it also won in 2022 and...
  16. Paddle Shifters install on Maverick XL -- DIY install instructions, photos & video

    WOW! Your idea of a DIY installation is advanced engineering to me, especially when it comes to electronics. Being a 68yo I was raised on points & plugs, condensers, distributor caps, lights and a radio being a vehicle's electronics, but I appreciate the effort and ingenuity of you folks...
  17. Question about Tonneau covers

    There's probably hundreds of threads here on what you're asking. I'll try to recap but using the search function may unearth more info. A soft top (either rollup or tri-fold) is going to move, especially at higher speeds. Just make sure you have it centered front to back so the seals overlaps...
  18. Would it be possible to swap the 2.0L EcoBoost Inline-4 engine for the 2.7L V6 Nano (also an EcoBoost) engine?

    Short answer: No Not enough room in the stock engine bay for a twin-turbo V6. Plus I'd imagine the electronic powertrain conversion would be a nightmare, plus increased cooling needs, etc etc. And how long will a stock transmission/drivetrain hold up with 350~400lb of torque? But, if you're...
  19. Temperature Displays, Dash and Screen

    The dash display shows the external temperature. The temp shown on the infotainment screen is what you have your HVAC set to via the temp dial.
