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...
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...
I just read where they are going to start putting electronic license plates on cars....

"Personalized license plates are out; digital license plates are in—at least in Arizona and California, where the technology is currently...
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.
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...
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...
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.
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.
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.

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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
