    Pickup Trucks

    I'm tempted now to sell my hybrid fwd Maverick for the AWD. But I can't stand the new front bumper pieces to the lights. It's just not cohesive. It's like the designers said "hey let's put in these cool led claw headlights without adjusting the grill to fill in the gap" "great idea Jim" "what we...

    Normal car recommendation….

    That's not too bad considering the 2.0 turbo. I get like 12-14L/100kms in the other cars in traffic. I might crack over 800kms on this tank in the Maverick for 52L. I never run it dry, usually fill up at 1/4 tank. I'm not sure how much further I can go.

    Normal car recommendation….

    Ya it's been really bad lately the traffic, past month. More construction, lanes down everywhere. It takes me over an hour to drive 10kms and I leave at 3pm. Work is just south of Bloor, home is near Yorkdale. Traffic has totally sucked the life out of me. I haven't ridden the motorcycle to...

    Normal car recommendation….

    I agree. I've never seen the Reddit stuff. I much prefer Mavericktruck club forum. You can see some associated problems with them. Used is sometimes more than new, especially with the Maverick. The used car market in Canada still has not come down as compared to our friends south. Still alot...

    Normal car recommendation….

    I have a Maverick hybrid. Great little commuter with a few drawbacks (Fischer price interior, seriously dated infotainment even compared to my 2017 RS Focus, others). It's boring like an appliance Toyota but for commuting in bumper to bumper I can't complain with the fuel mileage. Long wait time...

    Anyone here work in sales at Ford?

    You really can't go wrong with the AWD Ecoboost. The wait for these little guys is extraordinary though. See if order banks are still open in Canada, I'm not sure but I know in the US they closed within a few days. Rumour has it a hybrid AWD or plug in hybrid may be available for 2024

    Anyone here work in sales at Ford?

    I ordered a hybrid xlt lux pack in Sept of 2022 when order banks opened up. I still do not have a build date and Ford has scheduled Maverick builds already until mid April. Every Thursday they release more build dates. You may have better luck ordering an Ecoboom. Ford released they have...

    Corsa Meccanica no longer a Piaggio (Aprilia/Moto Guzzi/Vespa) dealer (?)

    No way! I just picked up a battery off of him two weeks ago after calling his cell and he ordered for me. This is sad news, he was very accommodating for everything.

    Corsa Meccanica no longer a Piaggio (Aprilia/Moto Guzzi/Vespa) dealer (?)

    Oh no! I wonder why. George and team were always fair. Maybe because VOS down the street?

    Best local Aprilia mechanic/shop?

    I'd vouch for Corsa as well. George knows his stuff and is pleasant to deal with. He seems to be generous too, picked up my Ducati free of charge one time, and let me borrow a tuono for a weekend too . Service times can be slow though as others have said. He's a busy guy, and don't think he...

    ducati issues

    What type of Ducati are you looking at, monster? Superbike? Multistrada, diavel. I can't really speak on the newer ones with higher service intervals, but I have a 2011 monster 796 with 31000kms. For the most part it has been trouble free. Gas tank issues are abundant but since purchasing I've...
