I ended up not getting my Maverick, it just never arrived. I did pick up a F150 Lariat with adaptive cruise, and compared to Toyota’s system I like Ford’s better. You have to pay attention to traffic ahead, like with regular cruise. But Ford’s system has a more gradual buffer which means you...

On the telemetric module? That will be closely guarded by Ford or their ECU design house. It’s a black box without the design files.

I’m pretty sure with any recent Ford, the key is more of a suggestion to the computer than a hard kill switch. If you blip the key in and out of the start position your Maverick will take over and finish the start. If you hold the key in the start position when the engine is running, the starter...

That should be doable, upgrade to the XLT steering wheel and change a couple bits in the computers. People on this forum have already done it.

I stopped in a Subaru dealership in 1994 and questioned a salesperson about their window sticker, it had the automatic listed with better mileage than the manual. That's when the transition started, I suspect you're right that it completed in the late 2000s.

Today I gave away the replacement backup lights I had purchased because I have realized my Maverick is not going to get here.

F-150s got the same recall, sounds like a software thing.

I was looking for a couple things from the Maverick: adaptive cruise, lane centering, relatively comfortable ride. Price wasn't as much of a concern, but I liked the idea of getting into the lower price range. When it became apparent that my order wouldn't make it in time I looked at a number...

The gap is because I bought them from my father and he didn't buy either one new. I actually bought them one after the other. The second was nice because it had AC.

Ordered 12/9/21. Alto Blue Lariat Lux AWD SIBL Latest status from the dealership showed "unscheduled clean".

Hybrid and diesel just doesn't seem like a good match. Electric motors have great low end torque and have little available power at high speeds. Gas engines are pretty much the opposite. So matching a gas engine with an electric motor means far better efficiency. Diesel motors generally have...

Looks like a glitch. If I search for 100 miles near me I get zero results, if I change to 20 miles I get 3.

Right now most stations near me are $3.39, Costco is $3.14. That's $0.25 cheaper. If the average American drives 14K miles a year then that's a savings of $134.61 per year for Ecoboost and $94.59 per year for Hybrid. Costco memberships cost $60 a year.

It's only a 50% mark up

Whole house had it here. Wife was unvaxed due to other health issues, the rest of us are double vaxed. Most of us had mild symptoms, my wife had it slightly worse, and one of the younger ones had it really rough for two weeks. Vax status was hit or miss with regard to the bad symptoms. During...

The chip situation isn't improving until calendar year 2023, and probably not until Q2. And unless the market crashes and demands go down it will be a very soft improvement even then.

Maverick is reusing a bunch of components from other vehicles. Bronco Sport has fog lights, so that's probably why Maverick instrument panel has a fog light indicator. The indicator is probably wired up, so if Forscan can tell the Maverick it has fog lights that might make be able to drive some.

45 is roll down the window weather!

Looks like a foot made it in there
