  1. Is the ball height the same between the F-350 and the Tundra? If using a ball mount with a lot of drop, is it moving side to side? Let's see some pics of both combo's, if you have them/ HRG
  2. My $$$ is that it goes to Hermosillo along with BS and Maverick, now that those 2 models are starting to show up as stock on dealer lots. The Maverick is no longer the $20K darling it once was, after short order windows for the MY22 & 23 years, MY24 never closed until just recently. HRG
  3. Enthusiasts forums (like this one) are full of people who try to push their opinion as fact, like they have a seat in the boardroom. It's a shame, but welcome to the anonymity of the internet. HRG
  4. 60% would order the optional wheels instead. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/lobo-to-turbofan-or-not-to-turbofan.52445/#post-898472 HRG
  5. If you don't feel that the value proposition is there, don't buy one. Go find another vehicle that better suits your parameters. The demand for XL Hybrids shows that there are plenty of people who feel the cost is worth it. HRG
  6. Nothing as of this 8/1 notice. Get your order in! HRG
  7. Nice! Paid $3.99.9 @ Costco yesterday,,,,, All of the non-membership stations are at $4.18+ HRG
  8. The 2025 Escape build and price is already up. The '25 base Active starts at $27,995, a '24 I pulled the WS on started at $29,495. HRG
  9. Annoying as hell when you look up from your phone and see that your speed has dropped considerably,,,,,, HRG
  10. Exactly. Look at the 2024 Cup Series schedule, 2 of the races have Toyota in the race name. NONE have Ford. HRG
  11. That 10 inches make a difference in my garage. Had an Explorer, the Edge fits much better. HRG
  12. Not sure where you live, but there's a ton of '24 Edges at dealers around me (minus the one I bought 3 months ago). HRG
  13. That would have been me. When I was getting ready to retire, and having to get my own vehicle for the first time in 33 years, the delay after delay of the Gen6 Ranger just became a waiting game, so I went with a Maverick instead. Rangers still catch my eye when I'm strolling a dealer lot, but with a $10K up-charge for similar equipment, I doubt I'll be getting one. HRG
  14. It's a conspiracy to keep you from getting the truck you want,,,,, HRG
  15. Just got back from a quick trip to western Germany, it's amazing how much smaller the overall size of vehicles is. Even my Maverick would be a bit on the large (long) side. Towing a small utility trailer seems to be the common answer for extra capacity when needed. HRG
  16. You can be quite the wordsmith at times, but how does this describe YOUR ICE F-150? No stopping at gas stations? Frunk storage? No more oil/coolant/trans fluid changes. What, once it runs out of gas you'll just leave it where it dies? HRG
  17. That's been a common thought among low-end Maverick buyers, unfortunately, the base XL's are way over-ordered, and certainly there are some features that just aren't possible to add-on after the fact. Welcome back, HRG
  18. Use conversion rings with the more common 60-degree style? HRG
  19. I find that the "search inventory" feature isn't working when drilling-down options. If you go to Build & Price, build a XLT 2WD, there's over 100 within 20 miles of 30114. https://shop.ford.com/inventory/f150/results?fromPopularBuild=false&zipcode=30114&Radius=20&modeltrim=F-150_F24-XLT&Order=Distance&altleadsource=fbc&fromDetails=true&intcmp=fv-fbc-sum-cta-si-f-150 Every one I've clicked on has been a 4x2. HRG
  20. Yes, that would seem to be a viable option. Remove the grommet, pull the wires out, maybe slice the grommet so you can get your bundle in? HRG
  21. Agreed, the TV coverage was terrible. I followed the GT3 cars using this site. https://www.fiawec.com/en/race/result/4865 HRG
  22. I never thought I'd live to see the day when you are praising sub-$50K vehicles, and the lower ATP's they generate. HRG
