  1. Full pallet of solar panels 1,056 lbs

    We used to load an old 1/2 ton pickup with 10 16 gallon kegs of beer and drive on the highway 7 or 8 miles to a nightclub and unload them. The tire were bulging and about to blow. The rear bumper was almost dragging the ground and the truck was walking all over the road. Any number of things...
  2. MPG towing a Harley

    I haven't pulled anything with mine, yet, and only took one long road trip with it. Mileage was about 33 mpg. I would expect you would lose another 5 mpg from the weight. I would offer to ride it for you, but my back just can't handle it anymore. I got rid of my Fatboy 13 years ago, but I still...
  3. Full pallet of solar panels 1,056 lbs

    That should keep your 12v charged!
  4. Damaged Front Bumper Wiring Harness 25’ XLT

    Use a multimeter and check the black wires to see if they are ground. If so, it won't matter which one goes where.
  5. Wife upstages me

    Well than, dont read this post. I am about to loose it laughing at them.
  6. Sunroofs

    My 25 Lariat has one and I haven't had any leaks. I rarely use it, but my wife does. I use the rear slider for my dog in good weather. He sticks his face out and watches cars and enjoys the smells.
  7. What Made You Choose the Maverick Over Other Trucks?

    I found myself without a truck, which i keep saying I won't do again. I wanted something with good mileage, so a hybrid sounded good. Ford is the only manufacturer that makes one that actually gets good mileage. All other trucks might give you a couple of mpg over their regular truck for $2000...
  8. Locked key in Mav

    My grandfather used to say this! If I had locked my key in, I would have used the app to unlock it. I know, Ford tracks everything I do. I sold my soul for convenience!
  9. Trust Your Mav to The Dealer?

    My dealer lives here. His father owned the business and worked there. His mother was there, too. It is a family business and they own the Toyota dealership, too. I have been taking my RAV there for service since I got it and have no complaints. I even got a new tire there, because they were...
  10. Installing Dimming mirror - lost my darn mirror mount screw

    You will find it after you buy a new one and finish the job! 😎
  11. Trust Your Mav to The Dealer?

    I never rotated my own tires. I used to do oil changes, plugs, points, timing, carb rebuild, but now I don't do any of it. I don't enjoy it anymore and I got rid of my jack stands. My wife has freaked out if I crawl under anything since her grandfather had a car fall on him.
  12. 2025 Charging pad

    It is slow, but if you are driving why would you care? It doesn't get that hot. The hottest phone I ever had was in my pocket while it was searching for a cell tower. I charge my phone every night and haven't drained one since the 90s, so the charger in my truck is like gravy on a biscuit, nice...
  13. Best Vehicle Colors for Resale - Clark Howard.

    When I look for a new vehicle and the salesman asks what color I always say anything but white. Growing up, a lot of people had white vehicles that were former company cars. Everyone worked in the oilfield and they would replace them by 50k miles and sell them to employees. No white for me...
  14. Best use for my Ford points?

    I got the passenger side tool box, but the installation was a pain. I still need to drill out two holes to mount it correctly. I am not sure if it is because of the spray in bed or if the holes are justbtoo small. The instructions are a joke. Maybe take a pass on this?
  15. Some form of automatic braking is annoying me

    The problem I have with the collision avoidance is that sometimes acceleration and steering is needed instead of brakes, but brakes is all it can do.
  16. Did another thing today - 3rd brake light strip installed

    I have always joked about pulling a trailer with a giant brake light on it to let all the stupid drivers behind me that I am stopping.
  17. ☀️ What’s everyone actually storing behind the Maverick screen?

    Nothing is in mine. Sunglasses are a year round thing that I keep on my face or the top of the cap on my head. Anything on the dash reflects on the windshield and drives me crazy.
  18. Pricing leftover 2025 tremor

    Go talk to them and be willing to walk out the door. I once worked a salesman 3 times over a couple of weeks. I knew what I wanted in the deal and never budged. I got my deal, it just took time and patience.
  19. New Owner! 2026 XLT Hybrid. Road trip tips?

    I have had trucks with spray in liners and without. I don't haul gravel, just all kinds of stuff. 5 years down the road, I have scuffed a liner, but the ones without liners have scratches in the paint. Scratches lead to rust. Never enough to damage the bed, but rust nonetheless. Spray in liners...
  20. New Owner! 2026 XLT Hybrid. Road trip tips?

    Welcome to the forum! For your trip, take a lot of money! Gas prices are highway robbery! Don't forget the tunes or audio books.I just got back from a Mississippi to Texas and back with no problems.
