Class 6 Roads Fun

Now that I've made the banner, @Administrator can I get FoMoCo to look into why my passenger side amber stops working intermittently? Had it at the shop 4x for this issue and it's still winking at me.

Dude what model is that with recovery hooks, can those be ordered & bolted onto Hybrid XL?
Should be the same unibody chassis unless an extra crossmember was bolted to standard unibody for recovery hooks?

I thought the headlamps & running lights in Mavericks are LED modules they should last 10 years if they dont they are expensive to replace.

Or were Mavs using halogen bulbs for 2022-2024 models?

That's a Tremor and the tow hooks cannot be easily added.

The turn signal or parking lights are halogen bulbs 2022-2024

My 2022 2EB, Lariat with the FX4 package has tow hooks. Tow hooks were/are part of the FX4 option. Driving lights are deleted from the Lariat package and replaced with the tow hooks. Would guess this may still be the case. As to if they can be added, would suggest contacting a dealer parts department to see if it is possible.

Lariats don't have driving lights.

Nearly 63 years on planet earth and I never knew there were classes of roads until this thread.

I'm only familiar with the circle-square-diamond system used out west.
Green circle = basically a dirt road. A Honda Civic could go down it.
Blue square = a stock 4x4 can easily make it; a stock AWD SUV can make it with a bit more drama
Single black diamond = high clearance 4x4 required to avoid body damage. Stock 4x4 or AWD SUV could make it, but you'll probably scrape or dent things.
Double black diamond = high clearance 4x4 with armor required to avoid body damage. A stock 4x4 won't make it because of ground clearance/high centering/approach/departure angles.
Triple black diamond = Better have a comp crawler, 4 point seatbelts, and be ready to break stuff.

No. Non-FX4s or non-Tremors do not have the threaded bungs in the crash structure that the tow hooks connect to. You'd have to fabricate the threaded bungs and weld them onto the crash structure.

Non-FX4s or non-Tremors do have the secondary supporting bolt holes for the tow hooks, so I suppose if you wanted them as a visual mod, you can install them, but if they are used for recovery, you will rip the tow hooks out and cause a lot of damage to the surrounding bumper fascia.

Tow hooks were and are available on the FX4 package and the Tremor only. Lariats never had driving lights. The tow hooks don't replace lights; they just replace some blank panels.

Tow hooks can NOT be added to any hybrid (2022 to 2024 for sure; 2025-26 unlikely, but I have not independently confirmed.)

The place the tow hooks bolt into does not exist in hybrids.
