  1. Adding to my Truck Bed: step ladder, molle panel, bed divider, storage box & more

  2. Can this be patched or need a new tire?

    I'm sure you know the spare is not the same size as your regular 4 tires. The spare needs to be changed or fixed within a few hundred miles.
  3. Can this be patched or need a new tire?

    Plug-able but most bigger tire shops in my area will not plug tires..claim it is too much liability for small revenue. A "small" local tire shop would probably do a plug but not the big chain tire stores. A plug is simple and there are u-tube videos for DIYers but if you're not a DIY guy I'd...
  4. Drop in MPG

    Drove xcountry (Atlanta to Pacific Ocean) this summer and definitely got better MPG as I got further west. Pretty sure it was gasoline quality difference. Mostly buy Costco gas with 87 Octane but add 1 or 2 gallons of 91 octane to raise the octane. Hybrid consistently gets 42-46 MPG. Slightly...
  5. My Ceramic Coating Journey

    I've found Ceramic Coatings pretty amazing. Have done 4 cars, Maverick and 2 motorcycles. It is a lot of work to CC a vehicle but no way any wax lasts as long as Ceramic Coating. The Porsche to the left was done 5 yrs ago and still beads like the day it was first CC'ed. All 3 of my vehicles...
  6. Should I... trade a 2023 XL hybrid for a 2024 XL ecoboost

    You can't trust the internet to verify ALL THE HYBRID issues. Mostly problems are reported on the internet. I've got 22,000 miles on my MY22 HYBRID with no failures of any kind...2 very minor recalls that took 30 minutes to fix. Know at least 12 people with Hybrids and none have had any...
  7. Should I... trade a 2023 XL hybrid for a 2024 XL ecoboost

    One of my best vehicle buying experiences ever was at Chapman. All communication via e-Mail until picking up Maverick. At the time price was $1,400 below MSRPā€¦.had a pleasant 700 mile drive home and will most likely buy my next Hybrid from Steve at Chapman. No hassles or pressure, truck was...
  8. Should I... trade a 2023 XL hybrid for a 2024 XL ecoboost

    Youā€™re right heā€™s wrong. FYI - I found the XLT is well worth the investment over the XL , itā€™s comfort, safety, looks, and more so in resale value.
  9. Maybe I should have kept my ‘22 Mav?

    Same here...but Jan 2022 Hybrid delivery with very minor issues from 2 recalls, 22,000 trouble tree miles. Also have a EcoBoost for business service calls but currently awaiting a trade-in of the EcoBoost for another Hybrid due to gas savings of the Hybrid....buying gasoline once a month for...
  10. Well, that "L" button is pretty useless,,,

    Discovered this in the Hybrid in Big Horn Mountain Range, Wyoming this summer. Was at 9,700 feet at the top of a mountain pass heading down the mountain not wanting to ride the brakes so put Hybrid in Cruise Control for 40 mph and the Hybrid transmission/engine up and down shifted all the way...
  11. Lightweight Camper for Hybrid Maverick

    Most impressive build...had a 34' Winnebago and never used the shower or full kitchen, always stopping at campgrounds with showers. Your build has just what's needed - the necessities without the headaches. You might find this site helpful: Free Camping Near You | Go Camping for Free...
  12. DIY spray in bed liner?

    After seeing some DIY jobs I opted for a PRO at LineX. To take off all the tiedowns, 2 storage lids, tailgate panels, and tape off all the plastic and painted areas and putting items back correctly, all my guy had tarps to cover all the back of the bed. FYI, you need a very good drill to put...
  13. Tailgate Weather stripping (pics)

    This Amazon weather stripping looks like the one from my Gator tonneau cover. I have also seen it at Autozone. Traveling over 100's of miles of dirt roads I have added this weather stripping to the perimeter of my tailgate to keep dust out...
  14. 2022 Maverick Hybrid started spontaneously.

    Since the original key had issues....you might want to purchase another key (probably $30-$40) just to see if it solves the problem. You have to get the new key cut and use both keys to program the new key. Just a long shot. Also sure sounds like a for FordPass remote start issue. You might...
  15. Lux package?

    Not starting an argument - worked for years for an interstate trucking company and each state has it's on tinting laws, but the FEDERAL HIGHWAY system is supposed to be handled by states police, etc on Federal Highways (especially at weigh stations and toll roads). I have received two tickets...
  16. Do I really need the XLT Lux package? šŸ§

    Does sort of surprise me to see people with XL series cookie cutter wheels spending $1,000+ for nicer wheels. I like and get a lot of comments on the XLT's wheels that came stock with the XLT. I too really like having the moon-roof, and when I ordered in 2021 XLT came standard with Trailer...
  17. inside noises

    I have noticed that the Mav Hybrid does have more noise than previous vehicles... especially at freeway speeds as I raise the stereo volume as speed increases. It is an economy vehicle so sound deadening insulation was in the lower budget....
  18. Key Cutting for Keyfobs

    I too ordered the Amazon blank key....took it to key shop (Ace Hardware) and they said we don't cut keys that they don't sale. Took to 3 other locksmith shops and all three said the Maverick key was longer than standard keys and it would not fit in their cutting machine. My motivation for 3rd...
  19. Seat Jackers - anyone installed?

    Initially found the Maverick seat uncomfortable. Kept jacking up seat and finally ordered some padded seat covers from Amazon that added enough height that I now find they were my solution to comfort. Made seat probably 3/8th of an inch higher with padding and greatly helped the comfort. Now...
