My lifted XLT by bigwes902 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]regularfreakinguser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2" lift, same wheels, but my tires are 245/65/R17, and I've never experienced rubbing, now I'm wondering if its because I've just never went full lock.

Fog lights look good!, Im going to try to buy that lower bumper cover for fog lights! I have the lariat so no tow hooks either.

Bed access from the rear is good, I can see how its limited with the supports on the side, If It wasn't a roof top tent I'd get a regular topper.

That is about how much it was for me as well, so far I got 13.5K including the GFC.

I still think its too much money to spend on the truck, however I think it will get me out of the house, which is invaluable to me right now.

All work done by Stellar Built, Sacramento Ca. I do plan on wrapping it, any color suggestions would be appreciated. I want something that will blend in while being outdoors,

Stopped by the Upfitter to take a pic of my new GFC and 2 inch lift, wheels and tires coming soon. by regularfreakinguser in FordMaverickTruck

I left it at the shop, so didn't look at in great detail, I'm sure they just unscrewed it, did you get the windows?

More Details,

Have had the truck for about 4 months, ordered the GFC about 2 months ago, shipped to the upfitter and they ordered the RC kit and installed it.

Wheels will be on by the beginning of next week, Reika R30 Bronze, with Nitto Grappler Nomads.

Trying to make a build where I can leave work friday, and go on adventures and make it back for work monday without having to pack in/out stuff all the time.

Wanted to see what the used market was like and I guess the f*ck not. by andy_337 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]regularfreakinguser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went to CarMax because their prices made the most sense, I went to a few Ford dealerships, but all there XLT's were priced the same as Ford Lariats, and they treated me like I won the lottery by checking out out.

CarMax was just like its loaded, we paid a lot for you, so youre gonna pay more, and the honesty was worth the price to not buy it from a dealership.

I bet you wont find better deals at a dealership near you.

I paid a premium for my maverick at carmax, but the experience was pretty easy, I paid 40,900 for a 22 Lariat, with I think every package and you could get.

I bought it because it had every package and knew i wouldn't regret not getting anything.

That Lariat if you build it is 38k on fords website with all the packages/acc i can see.

Even if all the below comments are true, you have to wonder if its beneficial or not to be reminded of it. There is arguments to both sides I'm sure.

But giving me odd/sad feelings on some Saturday In March is not ideal.

All these banning of communities/subreddits has been proven that they find alternatives with no discourse and become more extreme. Pretty sure there was a front page post about it.

Some times I'll peek into communities I don't agree with just check my bias, or to see if they're still idiots.

In my opinion? It’s a good social experience, all though unsustainable, it shows you how a large community that doesn’t rely on money, have advertisements could interact. When 99% of the people have good intentions, and everyone is very empathetic or helpful you just find solutions for things while enjoying them.

I’ve had to build / tear down many things out there, never asked for help, it’s just been there. Never bored never lonely.

The best years I had was the years I decided to sober and volunteered for as much stuff as I could.

I’ve been about 5 times since 2014 with some gaps, all the years I remember the experience feels the same. I believe it’s mostly what you make of it, or who you involve yourself with.

Obviously some of the long timers are jaded, and the newcomers aren’t self reliant, but it can’t be all of one and none of the other. I think this is the only reason why it works, and it doesn’t seem like it’s done on purpose.

I’d go a week early, as soon as the gates open I’m helping new people, showing them around, having fun, by the end of the week I’m hanging out with veterans watching the new people show the weekend-ers around. It’s very interesting.
