My Maverick isn't even scheduled yet but I started a spreadsheet of potential accessories.

1. Spray In Bed-Liner
2. Tailgate Assist (shock)
3. Hard Roll Tonneau Cover
4. Wireless Carplay
5. Tint front driver/passenger windows to match the rear.

There is more, and I'm sure this list will change before I get my truck, but I'll probably limit myself to just three to five changes in the first couple of months. I'll try anyway...

I'm curious, what are/were/will your top changes you be for your Maverick?

I have had my cactus gray Maverick for about two months. Did the following:

1. Soft tonneau cover - Access Vanish
2. OEM mud flaps
3. Smoked hood protector
4. Maverick letters
5. Spray-in bedliner
6. Floor liners
7. Tinted windows to match factory tint level.

I like all I have done. I would recommend getting the five-inch curtain on the top of the windshield when you get the windows tinted. Darker than the other windows. More like a 10. Additional cost is around 30 to 40 dollars. Great on sunny days; do not need the visor or if you use it, the curtain shields you from sunlight not covered by the visor.

Any Photos? I switched to Cactus Grey and added BAP!

I have some photos of some of these accessories on the truck. Will take some of the other accessories and post tomorrow. In my opinion, anything black in accessories really sets off the cactus gray color.

2. OEM mud flaps
Those are the molded plastic ones? If so I have a question about them to satisfy a small concern I have. From what I can tell from pictures, I'm guessing the side that faces the wheel is concave. If so, how well does it hold onto sticky stuff? My concern is (living in the mid-Atlantic area) is how well slushy road spray would accumulate there. Even on flat wheel-wells I have to occasionally knock off a large slush ball, but I've only ever driven cars w/o mud flaps. Would these mud flaps collect even larger slush balls? If so, should I worry about ripping the mud flaps off when kicking off the slush balls?

I absolutely agree black accents working wonderfully with CG

1. Soft roll tonneau
2. DIBL (would choose spray in, but I know someone that has the drop in currently that they're planning on taking out and they've offered to give it to me)
3. All Weather mats
4. Front window tint, I don't think I'll go quite as dark as the rear windows
5. Black inserts for tailgate (might do black Ford logos as well

My full list of additions is continually growing but the top 3 are the absolute must haves on mine.

I would agree with the additional tint strip, it really makes a big difference when driving into the sun. I also did an almost unnoticeable windshield tint, again comfort in direct sun.

I also added 3M PPF on the front clip, roofline, a-columns and all 4 doorstep/rockers.

Hey slushballs,
I don't have an answer to your question but a couple of years ago we had such thick slushy snow that it tore my Ford Fusion under-car shield halfway off my car. I stopped at my Ford dealer and they put it on the rack and put new screws in it, good as new. No charge too! They said it was the third fusion they saw that day. As I drove around the next few weeks I counted about 6-8 more Fusions with the under-car shield hanging off. Hopefully, the Maverick mud flaps are better attached.

Although some will debate, oil catch cans.

potentially void your emissions warranty, depends on the dealer but emissions are federal

There are a number of threads on the forum and some of the sponsors have items available. Give it some research and you make the call.

Possibly. I saved the original hoses should there be an issue down the road.
