Who still has their Maverick purchased new?

So today marks 3 years since we bought our xlt ecoboost . Zero issues at 44,000 miles. The factory continentals all look the same never being rotated and perform well in our northern michigan winters. The factory paint still looks new after waxing once every spring with paste wax for about 3 dollars. First and subsequent oil changes done at 5k. No trans fluid change, no RDU fluid change. Original battery and brakes.i did have two factory recalls which were done while the vehicle was at my wife's work. We regularly tow a 3000 lb boat with it. Get over 30 mpg hwy Overall. Hoping to get 15 years out of it like our dodges. very pleased with the " half a truck" as my wife calls it

Maybe this was asked before and I apologize if it has, but is there any reason you have not rotated the tires yet with 44K on them ? One would think they would be a little noisy by now.

I have a 2025 hybrid all-wheel drive with the 4K towing package. I bought it in May of 2025. As of today July 3rd 2026 I have 46,619 miles on it, thus far I have not had any issues. And I still have the original Goodyear Wrangler territory HT tires. They have almost half the tread still left. They are the tires that come with the black appearance package. I hope I continue to have a trouble-free truck. Yes I am a mechanic at a Ford dealership. But I hate working on my own vehicle after I've worked on everybody else's.

Happy fourth! The reason i never rotate tires....is because i never see a reason to. All 4 tires have the same tread and wear patterns. If i had a vehicle with a worn or faulty suspension and saw tires wearing un- evenly i would rotate, but that has not been the case in 50 years of driving. I also dont replace tires every few years just because of age. I recently replaced the tires on my vintage car because they were 30 years old, which were also never rotated in 30 years. Granted those tires probably only had 30 k on them. If it makes you feel better to rotate go for it!
