    No shutter on my 22 hybrid. Smooth. Ford has been making hybrids for 15 years. I like the eCVT. Put it in ‘sports mode’ if you like shift points. Bluetooth work good on mine. So many good things about this truck for the price point.

    I'd bring your Maverick in to be checked for updates, as the Electric to Gas transition is super smooth on my '23. Other than hearing the engine under load, many times I'm not sure if mine is in Electric or Gas/Hybrid mode. The power delivery is also pretty good to point of actually feeling 'peppy', without the typical rubber-band feeling of a traditional CVT. I've driven Nissan & Subaru CVTs, and the Nissan was by far the worse in that respect. The Maverick eCVT feels a whole lot better, with more a direct connection between throttle input and response from the drivetrain.
    By the way, the BT issues don't seem to plague the Lariat with Sync models.

    0:51 you hit it right on the dot, my grandpa struggles to get in my Maverick because of that 3 inch indentation. There was no point for that to even be there, plus I’ve had headaches with all the dirt that the indentation catches off my boots. I love this truck but yet I hate it because it makes it so hard for my grandpa to even get in.

      There is a very big point for that being there. There has to be a frame somewhere even if it's unibody. With the potential to haul 1500# and tow up to 4000# it has to be significantly strong.

      being a "car guy" - yes its a smooth acceleration, but its like being strapped on the back of an industrial vacuum cleaner, and the video was just content/ opinions - overall I am very pleased with the maverick and its MPG was my 1 and only reason of buying it...

    0:40 My first documented oil change (I did the first myself at 1,300 miles, then at the dealership at 5,000), the oil change tech got mud on the door sill and that trim piece. I cleaned up their mess, did some research and found door sill grip tape. Now it's easier to clean and provides grip for those who insist on stepping on the door sills.
    Lastly, try the "reboot" procedure for the infotainment. Press and hold both the power & the skip track forward buttons until it reboots. Should do the same as turning the Maverick's ignition off then back on.

      Play the biggest thing he did say about hate is technology should be better than it should be Afro. How many models and as big as the company is for the technology from apple or Android or sync should not be doing what it should be doing by being spotty going off and on I do understand that the other stuff doesn't hate it's just pet peas. But in general yes, the quality of vehicles could be better. Look at where they send it to not trying to be a hater, but build countries in America. Yes, America's don't always build the best, but stop building cut cars at other countries just to make a penny or save a penny. It was a good video, but in general, it was a good video. They learned some things I did not know in vice vercause. I'm good advice. I'm not a full-blown technician myself. But I do tinker myself on cars. Maybe there's something he said that I didn't understand or there's things I could tell him about cars but it was a good video but maybe he does a different word than saying a pet pee or something like that. There are things that we can't account live without understand I'm looking to buy a Maverick. I am the early 50s as a toy as a second vehicle.
      But still overall, I like the video I live in California. Southern California, maybe a little spoiled down here. Commander, I have lived in. Other states, what's the bad weather? But I wan to buy the car for performance.

  • @Cayman192
    @Cayman192 5 місяців тому

    I've owned a ecoboost lariat maverick for a month now. I have minor complaints nothing I really hate. Like the rear view mirror sits really low, as a taller person the mirror sits right in my field of vision where I would usually see traffic from my right coming to a 4 way intersection, or roundabout. The cubby beside the infotainment system, too small to fit anything useful, not angled enough to hold in change, but fits my wallet so that's OK. And the mud/rutt modes locks me out of higher gears so going 25 on a gravel road forces my engine up to 3000rpm which kills my gas mileage in the long term. I live in alaska so there's a lot of loose gravel and dirt roads.

    SO when you bought this vehicle did you notice there were no drip rails.? When you stepped into it did you not notice the step down? as for the motor/engine shutter? You have a problem with yours mine is smooth as glass. By the way Toyota was in partnership with ford on the creation of the engine and transmission combo. I do agree the radio sucks but I have found if I restart my phone itself. It will unstick itself.

    I have the 2024 eco boost xl with AWD. I like the power and the pickup no turbo lag. The sport mode is fun it shifts fast at a high rpm. The rain thing bothers me as I like my vehicle clean. I’m not happy with how the kick plate when you get out gets scuffed up especially when my kid gets out the passenger side.But all in all I’m happy with the truck.

      OP, Nah. This thing a a pile of junk. Compared to my previous 08’ Camry Hybrid the Mav has a lot of problems, electric gremlins, poor build quality. At least the power train is fine. Cannot say I have the rough transition from electric to gas though, unless it’s cold.

    @elistewart1780 6 місяців тому

    Funny how the transition from electric to gas has a shudder and shake, which is a negative. But when there are no gears to shift, and they remove that shudder and shake - it's a negative as well.
