Maverick Wheel Well Liners Demand
Do you need wheel well liners?
No
My 23 Maverick hybrid XLT already has rear wheel well liners. They seem to work perfectly fine.

Uh... The Maverick has wheel liners from the factory. Why would people spend more to replace them over a small space in the rear. Buy mudlfaps that cover that spot or spend $10 and DIY it.

AFAICT, the front ones are plastic with a plastic "felt" sound-deadening liner. I spray the mud off them at the manual high-pressure car wash and they are dry by the time I get home. No "felt" damage, either. At least not yet.

That material is unquestionably better for wheel well liners. Anyone who wants plastic hard liners that make thud noises every time a pebble hits them is insane. Not only do the plastic ones crack, fade and chip but they are noisy.

I should have said the felt like material, being cellular, will hold water.

I would be interested for replacement front liners, I hate trying to clean the OEM carpet liners

Fender flares, No
Wheel well liners, Yes.
I didn't realize the crap Ford put in are actually considered legitimate wheel well liners. I would buy some well made ones.

I’d buy a set for the front to replace the felt. My rock blockz mudflaps already cover the hole in the drivers rear liner.

They do hold a ton of water. As someone who has sprayed them like you. I’ve removed them an hour later and they are still heavy and saturated with water. Take it through the mud ones and while spraying see how long it take to get clear water to come out as opposed to muddy water. It’s a while.

Do you have any demand for Maverick Wheel Well Liners?Here is the wheel well liners we designed for another model F150. The approximate type is like this. If the demand is high, we can plan production.

If you could make an after market replacement under engine guard that has access doors for the oil drain and oil filter you could sell a bunch. The OEM has no doors so you must remove every oil change which is a huge hassle. If you want to make a prototype send it to me and I will evaluate.

I'm always amazed at some of the snarky replies when a supplier introduces or proposes a new product for our trucks. IMHO, Instead of criticizing or ridiculing the supplier we should be supplying suggestions or constructive criticism. I think we all would like to see an active aftermarket business for our vehicles.
That is all, as you were.

Mine are dry by the time I get home. The car wash is in another town about 15 miles away. The one here is not good.

To drive through mud, it would have to rain - which it hasn't here in a while...

Maverick has front and rear wheel well liners as standard equipment.

Standard equipment? Why did my dealer charge me 299 for wheel liners then? Just another dealer rip off.

Yea that's messed up man. Gotta call em out on that BS.

 

[Mosin]

Yes Please make these.

What changes would be made if they did make these? Aside from a $10 fix for the gap in the rear drivers side? Would you all really spend the extra money, likely hundreds, for that? How cheap (cost) do you think these things will be?

If I was going to spend the money, I'd want them lined in the same material as the fronts for noise dampening and protection. Granted, you can line them with whatever you want before you put them on, but that's more money on top of a new set as well. Why not just remove the old ones and do that?

I guess I'm just not really seeing the benefit here vs. what already exists. A cheap and quick DIY that will take 1/8th the time of replacing liners entirely vs. shelling out hundreds and doing just that. These wheel liners would have to change the game entirely and cover well beyond what FORD's factory ones do - which isn't going to happen.

Doesn't make much sense to me. Why not just buy a set of RokBlokz or I'm pretty sure there are cheaper mudflaps that cover the spot too, and call it good if that is the goal?
