  6. Dissimilar Full-Sized Spare Tire on AWD Mavericks

    Welcome to the 20th century! This has always been the case for any Maverick (22-26) that had the "full size" spare. Much better than the old "donut" spare usually offered on most vehicles (now most just give you can of "flat goo be gone"). Unless you want to drive on the spare for 3 months...
  7. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

  10. Mavericks are safe! It's totaled but I'm unscathed

    "Funny that the government owns all the deer when you hunt, but not when one totals your vehicle" ;)
  11. Never keep pumping gas after the nozzle clicks!!⛽

    I've used the "one extra click" method for the last 50 years with no problems whatsoever. I also anticipate stops and "coast" into a stop light or sign with the only issue being my brake pads last longer. I have also learned to wait for the driver on my left at a red light to pull out first in...
  12. How Long Do You See Yourself Keeping Your Maverick? 🚗

    I'm holding out for either a "Jetson's" car or a Transporter; "Beam me up Scotty!" ;)
  13. Windshield issue - see photo

    A paint protection film on the windshield would leave a noticeable "edge" if part of it were worn off (he says you can feel no edge). The "acoustic" windshield has a special layer sandwiched between two layers of glass: you would not be able to "wear it off" (also not available on an XL). Almost...
  14. Paid Off My Maverick

    It's a great feeling ;) I too have a '23 Lariat. Picked it up on Jan 14, 2023, paid $155/mo for 36 months. Paid it off Jan 13, 2026. I have 32K miles on it, it looks and still runs like new. Far exceeded my expectations so far :) The Plan is to retire next year 🤞
  15. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

    In Texas, county sheriffs usually utilize K band. City police and DPS use KA. I rarely get a laser warning anymore.
  16. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

    Those were the days! My handle was "Space Trucker". An homage to one of my favorite classic rock bands "Deep Purple". Also tied to my hometown Houston, also known as "Space City". Say Ref, my daughter and son-in-law live in Auburn/Opelika. Great area! I'll be there in mid-August to see my third...
  17. Multiple minor rust spots

    2023 Mav Lariat here in Central Texas. No rust anywhere. Not much rain either ;)
  18. Anyone using a radar detector in their Maverick?

    I travel all over Texas for work. Going west on I-10 the speed limit is 80, so I don't really need it on the interstate. I travel a lot of state highways and FM roads that go through small towns. Where my detector really pays off are the towns where the speed limit goes from 70 to 55 to 30 in...
