  1. W WA Mav Meet-up Feb 18th - 11am til?

    I wonā€™t be able to make it due to being in the middle of a move, but Iā€™ll for sure be at the next one. I had hoped to pass off the extra cans of hyperdip I bought for my grill and emblems too! See yaā€™ll at the next one. šŸ¤™šŸ¼
  2. Plasti Dipping the badging

    I would have paid an excessive amount of $$ for a black appearance package. $50 in plastidip will allow me to cope though.
  3. Plasti Dipping the badging

    Did you paint it or plastidip it? I just masked off like crazy on mine and dipped it, but will eventually actually paint it. I was just way too lazy to take the whole front apart and hated the silver enough to live with plastidip for however long it lasts. It came out way better than I hoped. I...
  4. My 11’ paddleboard setup with Yakima roof rack and fairing

    What size fairing is that? I havenā€™t put my racks on but I have the 46ā€ fairing still in box which I think was the next size up (I swear I measured the space like 15 times) so now Iā€™m curious if I goofed.
  5. 1970s Freewheeling Maverick Makeover

    When I saw the retro graphics on the new Bronco Sports and Broncos I was hoping someone would figure out a similar kit for the Mav. I love it for those reasons alone but the color scheme is perfect. I donā€™t think I could pull it off on my VB though. šŸ»
  6. Hyperdip Lariat grille bar (Plastidip)

    I have never heard of tremclad. This was my first time ever plastidipping anything before (technically itā€™s DYCā€™s fancier Hyperdip) but Iā€™ve spray painted plenty of things. Before I did it, I researched a bit from other forums and the plastidip variants seem to hold up pretty well. And you can...

    If taking the bar off didnā€™t involve a whole song and dance, I probably would have painted it too. The dip was super easy to do and I was way likelier to have kept it silver than take the whole bumper off, sand, paint and re-assemble. I feel fulfilled now that itā€™s black, since I would have paid...

    Finally got rid of my silver grille bar with Hyperdip. I know you were thinking about painting yours and am pleased to report it came out awesome.
  9. Hyperdip Lariat grille bar (Plastidip)

    Iā€™ve wanted to get rid of the silver Lariat grille bar since before I even got it and bought DipYourCarā€™s Hyperdip in the winter and have been waiting for better pnw weather to paint/dip it. After being without my Mav for nearly two months due to getting rear ended, I got it back and the weather...
  10. Western Washington

    Mahdi was my sales guy too! He took over when my original one left the dealer, hence why I was primarily working with Mike. It was a pretty fun day at the dealer when mine arrived since it was the first they got. I really wanted to stay local as well and knew Harris was a high volume dealer so...
  11. Western Washington

    I drove my 2000 Ford Ranger for 10 years before the Mav, it was black, and the only incident was someone hitting it in a parking lot while I was parked. I drive a brand new bright blue truck for 3 months and get rear ended, on a road I travel on frequently. Oh the irony. Iā€™m fine, the truck...
  12. Western Washington

    Mike, the sales manager at Harris, was great. I was their first ordered Maverick to hit the lot. Dealerships just generally seem to be squirrelly about pricing, but mine was MSRP and he said they never mark up customer orders. It was super smooth and once I switched to just talking with Mike...
  13. Western Washington

    If it was the Shoreline Trader Joeā€™s then it was probably mine. Velocity Blue with aftermarket tires sounds like mine, plus Iā€™m at that TJs at least once a week. Itā€™s kind of fun to play whose Mav is that. I still have only seen 2 in the wild.
  14. Western Washington

    They just forgot to install the bracket when they did the PDI and I havenā€™t made it a priority to get it put on. I really like the look of it without but i am eventually going to put it on. The hassle of getting pulled over because of it outweighs the benefits of looks for me.
  15. Western Washington

    Was out in Westport today so tried out sand mode. Results: it was probably meant for dry sand, but normal drive mode was excellent. It handled like a champ.
  16. VELOCITY BLUE Maverick Photos / Club

    I ordered that exact same one from Etsy and I am too indecisive to take the original red one off and keep it off or replace with the black one. I goofed on the Rokblokz mud flaps color (I got the grey thinking it was going to be much much darker) and so right now the original fx4 sticker accents...
  17. VELOCITY BLUE Maverick Photos / Club

    I got mine from Harris Ford, up in Lynnwood (they also own Pierre Ford in Seattle). They were great, and are a decent sized dealer so I seemed to have lucked out in the ordering lottery. I watched Mr Booms video a few times about his removal of the grille to get to the bar and emblem and I...
  18. Western Washington

    Iā€™ve now had my Mav for 3 weeks and Iā€™ve yet to see another one in the wild. I drove Seattle to Kingston, the non Ferry route on Saturday and used the adaptive cruise and lane assist for nearly the entire trip and it was the best highway driving experience Iā€™ve had in a long time. It was the...
  19. VELOCITY BLUE Maverick Photos / Club

    Road noise didnā€™t make a noticeable change but I also have the Lariat so it has a a quieter cabin. They seem to be quieter than the 265 Wildpeaks I had on my old Ranger though. I went to Discount Tire, $178 each. I drove all of 300 miles with the stock Pirellis though. I primarily wanted to...
  20. What Are Y'all Doing About Window Tint

    Just got 25% front tint done at the local tint shop. $180. It looks great.
