  1. 1st oil change - bad oil plug seal?

    Agree. That is the only reason even have a photo of my stock drain plug. Ha!
  2. 1st oil change - bad oil plug seal?

    That one is less "flat" than the one I pulled off mine. But I would bet when tightened that the gasket in your photo would have "squished" down and filled the void. Here is mine.
  3. Car Accident

    $3,350.70 for this "I barely see any damage" accident. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/why-does-usps-hate-me-curse-of-the-grumman-long-life-vehicle-llv-my-turn-to-be-rear-ended.47963/post-837066
  4. Wanted to give permium gas a try

    I think anything you notice will be confirmation bias. You are looking for a "change" and your brain will find one to satisfy the desire. Part of the reason I don't think you will see an actual change is that the truck is actively tuning itself constantly. It will adapt to the ignition...
  5. New recall: tail lights may not light up on 2022-2024 Maverick (5/1/24)

    Yep. Pretty much what mine was doing. Hard to tell how often it happens since you are usually driving....have to rely on someone to flag you down or give you the middle finger or whatever.
  6. New recall: tail lights may not light up on 2022-2024 Maverick (5/1/24)

    Well well well......same here. Many people were like "it is because you have aftermarket LEDs". Riiiiiiight. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/drivers-rear-running-lights-not-working.39478/

  8. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    I mean.....I don't like to be the vindictive type, but if I had my recovery shackle in the hitch (like I do 99.9% of the time other than on this specific trip), it would almost certainly gone thru their radiator. As it was, the hitch receiver punched thru their metal grill in front of the...
  9. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Update on the process. Have an appointment for 2 PM tomorrow at a repair shop that Ford lists as in their "Ford Certified Collision Network (FCCN)". Also is a shop that my insurance claimed did not require pre-approval for repairs........but when I called, the shop said that my insurance does...
  10. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    This is sort of how it has played out so far. Insurance just called me and said they have submitted the paperwork to the Feds. They told me there is no way it will take less than 6 months to hear back, and it is almost always "rejected" the first time around, but that in the meantime I should...
  11. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Yeah. Here it is in case you are curious. For the "If I were the officer I would be handing the driver a ticket" part of your post, that was actually really funny and somewhat relevant in the moment. The USPS driver's supervisor showed up and asked the cop "Who you going to ticket here", as if...

    They are black steelies with $20 Amazon plastic hub covers. Still interested? Haha.

  15. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Haha. I had three 8 year old girlscouts in the back. I had to really focus on my word choice.
  16. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Also pissed I didn't have my tow shackle in my hitch. This was coming back from camping. Planned to have a hitch mounted cargo carrier. But skipped it and did not put shackle back in. Either the shackle or the cargo carrier would have messed up the USPS truck a lot more and might have saved me...
  17. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Yeah. Filed a claim. Agent wasn't even sure how to file it. Haha. They were like "A Grumman what what what?" And "What do you mean they didn't have any insurance".
  18. Why does USPS hate me? Curse of the Grumman Long Life Vehicle (LLV). My turn to be rear ended.

    Bumper is pushed up and slightly in (rotated towards the rear). Tailgate now rubbs on the bumper when opening. Tow hitch smashed. Rear passenger tail light housing broken. Big "down to bare metal" dent and scratch on tailgate where their "bubble mirror on a the corner of the mail truck on a big...
