Looks great! I love the carbonized grey with the BAP. I think that and the hot pepper red are the two best colors for the BAP.

If you don't mind me asking, I have a couple of tangential questions:
1.) How is getting in/out of the Maverick now with the 2" lift?
2.) Are you climbing up into the vehicle now, sitting down into it, or is it a neutral height?
3.) Is the change significant from before you added the lift?
4.) And for the comparison, how tall are you?

1) it does more to lift the front and I notice the it sits more like a truck the hood is more more horizontal.
2)I don’t find myself climbing to get in at all. It makes it more like a mid size SUV in height.
3) the change is significant in the look, rides the same, and I appreciate the level as it fits my size better

4) I’m 5’11”

Hi Darrick,
Your truck looks awesome! matches your house and the others in the neighborhood.
I also have a few questions about the mods.
Some folks on this site say that the 265/60/18 will fit without a lift.
Did you do the lift first or the tires first? Just wanting to know if they fit without a lift.
I see you have the old tires in the bed, so I kind of assumed that you did the lift first.
Thanks!

Thank you very much for the info!

Ingress/egress is always something that is a weirdly big consideration for me. Guess I've always been an old man at heart in that I don't like collapsing down into a vehicle, climbing up into one, or awkwardly trying to get out of one.

Yes I did the lift first so I can’t tell you if there’d be any rubbing without a lift.

I did the 2" lift in back but I only did 1.25 in front which leveled it out just about perfectly. I

I have some bad days with arthritis and one of the things I liked about the 2 I drove before I ordered was it was an easy in and out on the Maverick. No climbing up or down but straight in. I'm 6'1".

Any significant drop in mpg?
