My house is the only one in the block that I can see that has any sign of light. I ran an extension cord into the house. I have a fan, 75" TV watching local channels, a lamp and chargers going. Not bad.
2022 Hybrid 109k miles and the brakes still have alot of life left. Just amazing!
I was getting my tires rotated at Discount Tires and I asked permission to go in there and check my brakes while the wheels were off.
luckily, no damage to my Mav. I'm so glad I bought the hitch step to protect the bumper, and it did exactly that. I used to have it installed all the way in for a low profile look but I thought, it might work better if it sticks out farther. There are a few holes for the locking pin and I...
I sent an oil sample to Blackstone Labs after my last oil change at 98K miles and here is the result. I have done a total of 11 oil changes since day 1 using Mobil 1 oil and OEM filter. Good Report they say so that's awesome. I think my Mav was made on a Wednesday. :giggle:
I'm starting a thread of dash cam videos here instead of creating a new one when I get an interesting video. Well, I hope you find it interesting. Here is my most recent one which happened today. Will add the old ones here as well when I get a chance.
Crazy thing is, I normally park it all the way to the end of the driveway. I parked it where it is thinking it'll be safer in case a tree branch fell from a huge oak tree off screen to the right. Had I parked it as usual, my Mav would have been ok.
I guess as I get older, I get weaker and don't have the strength to push the plugging tool into the puncture anymore.
Been having a slow leak so I decided to tackle it today. The culprit was my old plug job. I used rubber cement this time.
Anyway, I used a ratcheting strap to push the tool...
Video starts with me parked under a tree, on the wrong side of the road. It's a very less traveled road so I felt I was fine.
I started moving again and it got worse so I pulled off the side of the road as did a couple of drivers. Decided to get going again but saw brake lights up ahead. I...
Did an oil change a couple of days ago at 67k miles. 10k miles since last oil change but oil life monitor still showed 25%.
I'm seeing oily wet area where the transmission and engine meet. It may just be bolts needing tightening but the bolts require a special socket. No big deal or should I...
This happened today. I accidentally spilled my drink while I was driving and as I was wiping up and down the area between the two cup holders, my thumb hit the dial and I felt the truck kind of like downshift. A message appeared in the instrument cluster that said something to the effect that...
At 61K miles I decided to do a drain and fill. I watched this video.
Guy in the video said he drained about 7 quarts out so I went and got 7 quarts of QULV at the dealer but only used 3 quarts and 24 oz before fluid started dripping out of the fill hole. So, does the eCVT have nooks and...
The only thing it needed was an alignment. I didn't think about it but I should have ask for the before numbers. If you see anything wrong with the current numbers, please let me know because I don't know what they mean. I'm guessing the lower the number, the better. Tire tread I was told are...
I was stopped waiting for two cars to clear so I can get out of the parking lot at the grocery store and this guy backs into me. I was upset and cussed a little bit. After we talked and exchanged info, I realized I was wrong in the way I acted so I apologized and we shook hands. Just a...
Lately, folks have posted reviews bitching and moaning about petty stuff they hate about their Mav so I figured, why not do one as well!
First, I hate that gas prices are so high right now so I'm very happy with that MPG right there. That drive was 5 percent city/95 percent interstate.
I...
Anybody know how?
I have a hybrid and I changed the oil at 5,373 miles. FORDPASS app is showing oil life remaining at 60%. How do u reset that back to zero?
I looked in the manual and checked settings in the car but don't see that. Do I just have to wait until the message pops up?
It just prevented me from rear ending somebody. I know this technology has been out for a while but this is my first vehicle that has any feature like this.
Stop and go traffic and car in front of me jammed on his brakes. It went BEEPBEEPBEEP. As soon as I heard that I jammed on the brakes...
Anyone that had a dealer installed hard trifold tonneau, please check. I would like to compare.
The rails in my opinion were cut about half inch too short on both sides so it's not as water tight as it should be. There's a big gap. I would like to bring it back and complain about it.
