I'm still working out how to best scrub the factory advertising from it.
The XL panels on the front fenders can be replaced with new blank plates that have integrated turn signals. The stamped MAVERICK on the tailgate can be covered with a plate; I'll likely go with polished stainless to interact with drivers behind me that insist on using their brights 24/7. I haven't found dedicated blank grill badge replacement, but there are some for other models, maybe they are the same size. The Ford badge on the tailgate is problematic, because it houses the camera. Just painting it black is an option, but the lettering is raised, so it would still be there.

Kudos to those who have secured payment from Ford to add more advertising to their Mavs!

Do you remove manufacturer identification from your clothing and shoes, too?

I like the factory markings but won’t tolerate dealer stickers

Same. I don't want dealer stickers, and fortunately, my dealer primarily uses a license plate frame you can remove. Admittedly, some manufacturers use large branding when it is not necessary. The new Nissan Murano uses massive letters for some reason.

That said, I doubt people will look at a Ford-shaped truck and wonder who built it.

who the heck buys clothes with visible mfg names and labels in the first place? The poors? So, no, I don't have to remove mfg advertising from clothes. Kinda hard to take off identifying logos from running shoes, though. Have to draw the line somewhere.

Blue jeans have distinctive stitching at the least. I was just curious how fanatic you are about sticking it to every seller you buy something from.
