🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

[LC48]

Minor stuff, swapped on a stubby antenna that looks better to my eye than the factory one, and covered the steering wheel for a little added thickness and as a wear layer.

This weekend will swap in led backup lights and a smoked led third twilight- factory third one just bugs me, maybe it's the height it just catches my eye a lot more than it does on my F150 which is identical...oh, and a screen protector for the center display that I hope (fingers crosssed) will minimize the fingerprints I seem to get all over mine.

I'll post some pics after I get it washed, not looking too good right now...

True, but with a 4.5' bed, I'll probably use those tiedowns quite a bit.

There is a post on here somewhere where the owner replaced that tailgate tie down with a low profile D ring after adding the gas strut, may be an option?

What EMD are you runnin'?

I’m not sure you have access to the bottle opener unless the tailgate is down.

You have alternatives. Keep the bottle opener tie down and bolts/wrench in one of your handy storage locations. Install when needed, remove when done before closing tailgate. More convenient would be to install d ring or other tie down in hole on top of tailgate and leave permanently. Members on this site have done this and posted pictures. Where there is a will there is a way!

Sounds like a plan!

Ran GP9's GP10's, GP38's and a super ancient SW1000 for a shortline in VA for 10 years.. Also GP30's for the WMSR in Cumberland, MD for a couple of years.

Checked the tire pressures and fuel quantity from 1200miles away using the Ford app

Looked at the order confirmation email and gently sobbed, why do you ask?

What brand and % was the tint? looks great!

Western connection here... Grandpa was a steam fitter for SOUTHERN PACIFIC RR back in the day.
Thanks for this and keep‘m rolling folks!

Well...... I dreamt about our order and played with my truck 🥲
I don’t believe that is Cyber Orange

 

[JennyJoannSuebeeMcNash]

Hauled groceries in it which was the big reason in swapping out my F150 for it. That's 90% of the hauling my truck ever did.

Finally...the truth of truck ownership!

It’s 15% to match the factory but sorry, no clue on brand. I didn’t know there was such a thing as brands, I just went to a locally recommended shop.

So I pilfered this post from one of my motorcycle groups. It’s fun to see what everyone is up to. (Other than that poor SOB whose cousin totaled his)

today I got the front sides tinted to match factory

also added the tailgate assist.

Are you experiencing the same issue as me?

I saw your post and was looking for it and mine appears to be touching but not. It’s that close. I don’t have those shards like in your image. I’m going to monitor and maybe source a flat head screw of that rubbing develops.

Gabbydad, I noticed you did not replace the bolt/screw where the drivers side bottle opener was removed? Living in Jersey, are you concerned with moisture getting in there and corroding?
