  1. I got kissed on the tailgate....

    I was going to work a couple of months ago... the day after my birthday... and came across a construction zone. Everyone was just creeping along, going pretty slow. A car was trying to turn into a parking lot and I stopped to let it go by. The car made it all the way across. Then I could hear...
  2. My biggest disappointment so far = Ford hard roll-up tonneau cover

    I love my Maverick. It fits exactly what I was looking for in a truck. However... I purchased the Ford hard roll-up tonneau cover. With this heat the felt liners have come off. I almost have to have gloves on to roll it up. Structurally it is sound... except for those silly felt liners. I need...
  3. It gets hot under the bed cover.

    I tossed a thermometer under the tonneau cover. WeatherBug said it was 103. It was 121 under the tonneau.
  4. New Electronic License Plates?

    I just read where they are going to start putting electronic license plates on cars.... https://www.motortrend.com/news/ready-700-digital-license-plate/ "Personalized license plates are out; digital license plates are in—at least in Arizona and California, where the technology is currently...
  5. Extra Room in my Maverick

    Having had my Maverick for one year this week., I had to celebrate 🥳 so I added a 5th door. There isn't anything behind it yet. Yet being the key word. It's still a little rough, a work in progress.
  6. Bucket in the back seat - DIY mod

    I made a bucket to go in the back seat. Just used some stuff I had in my workshop. I think it came out pretty good. I might go ahead and paint it at some point. It holds a box of tissues and I could put a trash bag in it if I want. I have a holder I put together that lets me hang my tablet from...
  7. Thinking outside the cubby

    I have put together a few things for the cubby on my Maverick. I did my Give-a-Damn switch .. I have a gnome with a working fire place.. for Halloween I have a ghost with a haunted house in the background that lights up. I started off with an idea for a Christmas theme.. but it became to...
  8. Something to hold a tablet

    I carry a tablet with me and sometimes I will read or wander on the interwebs while I am eating lunch. It ain't pretty, but she does the job... I just hobbled together stuff I had around my work bench.
  9. Spooky Cubby

    I have added my latest cubby upgrade.... When the ghost is on the right side the lights are off... When it is moved to the left side a hidden switch turns on the lights in the house.
  10. New software update?

    I just did a software update but not sure what updated. It now reads as G2.0.0.1_R22285A. Any idea what updated?
  11. Fireplace option added

    Now that we are into Fall and Winter is around the corner, I have added a fireplace to keep the inside nice and toasty.
  12. My 10,000 mile XLT review: Would I recommend it? Absolutely!

    For those waiting for a Maverick.. The preamble: I have an Alto Blue EB XLT FWD. It has a few add-ons like LUX and 360 packages plus SIBL, tow package and moonroof. The only major add-ons after I got it we're the Ford hard roll up tonneau and tinting the front windows a wee bit darker. Likes...
  13. Cubby hole clock.

    I decided to add a clock to the cubby hole. Yes, I know there is one on the display screen already. I found a digital clock at Walmart the was a little big and chopped it up so it would fit the cubby. It is a little crude and I am going to clean it up some.... But I think it turned out pretty...
  14. Ford hard roll-up rev tonneau cover fix -- sealing against water intrusion

    I have the Ford hard roll-up tonneau cover. It is just shy of sealing against the tailgate. Even with it scooted back, I still get some water when I run it through a carwash. I also had someone in a white car give me a small door ding. I found some side molding and ran it along the edge of the...
  15. Heated Steering Wheel

    Just want to say.... with temperatures in the 100's... my heated steering wheel is working great! I didn't realize it had an automatic mode.
  16. What is this?

    I just found this on the floor mat on the driver's side... Any clue what this is and/or where it goes? I added a quarter as a reference for the size.
  17. Pin stripe?

    At first I thought this was a pin stripe... Then I realized he didn't nifty tie downs on the tail gate. It is a tie down strap wrapped around the tail gate. He also must not have a remote to unlock his tail gate since it looks like the handle was frantically ripped off the truck. Points go to...
  18. A good start to the week

    I took a different route to work this morning. I went through a Whataburger to grab a quick breakfast. I saw another Maverick parking at the HEB. Didn't get to meet the driver, he had gone into the store before I got out of the drive thru. The guy at the window was asking questions about my...

  20. Camera protection - Rain-X or lip covering?

    I get it... Lots of folks don't like the camera. Personally, I don't think it is all that bad. However, I wish it was protected better from the rain. Has anyone tried putting Rain-X on it or added a lip to protect it? It definitely needs something. It is pretty exposed, more so than I have had...
