If you're buying a kennel to transport your dog make sure it is something you'd transport your children in. Some cheap PetSmart special will not do.

I'd like something solid and safe for the pup to be transported in.
As @oioioi another minivan might be the next step! LoL

Or a Cybertruck ?
I agree if you don't have internal space for all passengers good time to consider another vehicle or hold off on more babies, pets etc.

I went out today to see a specific sales guy a co-worker recommended... 'Left the house 89% sure I was going to bite the bullet and buy my new f150...
'Lucky for me the guy was off today... LoL
He's back tomorrow so lets see if I'm still brave/stupid enough to go see him.

Ordered my F150 Lariat Jan '24 and have zero regrets.I went out today to see a specific sales guy a co-worker recommended... 'Left the house 89% sure I was going to bite the bullet and buy my new f150...

My BIL liked it so much he ordered the identical truck May '25 and also loves his.
So….should I lower it? Love the truck but wouldn’t mind a bit tighter suspension / response from the truck.
Current went from 225 -> 235 and it helped, but wondering how I can tighten it up more without (or without) lowering it.
Torsion bars? Theres a few suspension kits but they all drop 1.5-2” as a minimum.
EDIT: anyone know how to use FORSCAN properly? The change to 235/50-18 is about 5% off in size and I can’t figure out how to reprogram new tire circumference so the damn thing keeps reading high by 5%.
All weather - 235/50-18
Winters - 235/55-18
I can change the tire circumference, but can’t figure out the relearning of the sub-modules that feed from the main BCM.

The F150 FB page has lots of good susp and Forscan info. If there's a Mav one it'll likely be the same. I personally wouldn't lower it and instead would look into some different shocks to change the ride.
Personally I would not waste the money. They are throw away vehicles.

Ask a dealer - for 2026 a 300T package will include a Lobo lowering kit (bringing it down 10 mm in front and 30 mm in the rear), stabilizer bar, and performance-tuned springs. There's other stuff too that likely you won't want/need - follow the link.

More than just fancy one-offs, these go-fast kits are slated to be made available to consumers to add to their trucks, including in Canada

I read about that! 300hp in a Maverick would be fun. People open up those motors through COBB and have good results.Ask a dealer - for 2026 a 300T package will include a Lobo lowering kit (bringing it down 10 mm in front and 30 mm in the rear), stabilizer bar, and performance-tuned springs.

The suspension is of most interest to me.
Didn't you sell a car to buy a pick up? And now you want the pick up to be a car? "I'll take confused for 10 points Alex"
Yolo. That HELOC life. Or lease it through a business. Vehicle prices are insane.I just looked at the prices of Ram 2500 and holy cannoli! I could buy a house up north or out east for that!How in the heck do people afford to buy a new vehicle all the time, my goodness gravy.
He should have bought one of these. 500hp V10. You can get them for less than the price of an average new vehicle with mileage ~50K. Kids can ride in the bed with the dog.

That’s why I love my disposable Mav! It’s a pickup that drives very close to a car!

LOL...I'm debt free and at 57 (almost 58) with plans to retire at 60, there's no way I'm going into debt that much for a vehicle...I'm definitely not a baller (besides the obvious that I don't have them seeing as I am a girl
) like some of you guys here...
