This thread spurred ANOTHER check of availability and compatibility for Cragar Mags (believed to be Torq Thrust, could be wrong). No such luck, boxed out by spacing, offset or both. Ugh.
Until then, itâs 100% OEM with a vision of how the Cragars would look beneath Carbonized Gray.

Ordered on faith late September â21, viewed pics and vidâs only, local Dealers had zero of either engine on their lots.
After placing the order, My Dealer called late November, informing that he had an AWD Eco on the lot, wanting to know if I wanted to take it for...
2 Fords for 1 successful Mobile Service, which began with a phone call from Gillespie Ford (Gurnee IL, not the Dealer either Ford was purchased from) about open recalls on my wifeâs â21 Escape. After the Escape was scheduled, I asked âwhat about my â22 Maverick?â. Done.
Techs arrived on time...

Double whammy on this redundant letter, as itâs a reminder/update of a Ford letter previously received.
This recall letter covers both our â21 Escape and theâ22 Maverick. Not worried about either, just âawareâ.
I will, mostly for entertainment purposes, ask the Mobile Unit technician on...
+1 for ââŠsearch feature not helpfulâŠâ, but I figure the bots will fix that minor deficiency and direct all future submittals to exactly where they should go, for our betterment.

16k , â22 Hybrid Lariat, no issues, other than known recallsâŠof which 2 will be cleared at HOME 2/15/2024 by a mobile unit from a Dealership WHO CALLED ME! And not the dealership from whom the Maverick was purchased.
Iâve read in this forum about such events, but thought they were reserved for...
Not a tailgate open/close infraction, but the OEM tonneau did freeze during an ice/snow event and wouldnât roll open. Time constraints forced a âcrawl into the bedâ to get what was needed (pita). If time had permitted, a hair dryer warming the edges wouldâve worked.

My mom just hollered down the basement steps, trying to convince me that ââŠthereâs NFW a 52-year old F-100 drives better than a bare-bones 2023 Maverick XLâ. Her language can get salty where sheâs hollering downstairs.
