Slammed on Silver's Coilovers (23 Hybrid Lariat)

[daddio211]

Tailgate handle should already be painted on Lariats
So stupid they aren’t

I’ve done mine and my dads just because it looks right
Plus it’s easy because it’s the same handle as the Ranger (I’ve got extra unpainted handles if anyone needs them)

Right? It's like Ford just said, "Meh, nobody will notice." Seems lazy. A shortcut.

I wanted to give a shout out to @tozalazz for KILLER compressor they sent to me. Wow! Dual compressor, excellent quality and WAY faster than my Viair!

I received it the day after my Maverick went in for paint. I didn't want to wait any longer to give them a HUGE thank you!

I've used it on my son's Mini and the bags on my Surburban already.

I’ve only had 3 fill ups since I lowered my Maverick (April 15th) and mileage has gone down, but I put down to the fact that I’ve been running my A/C and in normal mode, instead of eco mode. I’ve run the last two fill ups (June and July) in normal mode and now I’ve switched back to eco mode to see if my mpg comes back up some. Looking back at last July and Aug I had an average of 37ish mpg so I’m not that far off. Looks more like running the A/C is killing my mpg more than lowering my Maverick.

what app are you using to track your mpg's ?
thank you

Thank you...
Awesome build by the way.....
trying to decide between Silvers and an air bag setup.
Silvers is only about an hour from me and they are definitely more affordable.

MOST of the bagged Mavericks here don't sit much lower than me with coilovers. I love bags but I need reliability so I chose static. I drive 30-35k per year and don't need to be broke down with a fitting, line, leak, fuse when trying to get to a customer.

Not much to report, piling miles on daily. Have been to Vegas probably half a dozen times in the past month and past 8000 miles.

Averaging 38 MPG between city and highway (80 MPH).

Still loving my @tozalazz compressor!

How is the paint holding up?

How is the paint holding up?

Perfectly so far. I do have a little chip on my front bumper (as to be expected with the miles you and I drive!) but it doesn't appear to be moving, spreading, bubbling, peeling, etc. I know painting non-RTP plastics is a gamble but I have faith in my painter and know he did the best he could possibly do. Fingers crossed it lasts a LONG time!
