So if it’s not set to be part of the Ford Maverick family, or even as a concept vehicle, it could perhaps emerge as part of another vehicle family, such as on the Mustang Mach-E, or maybe even on the new Ford F-150 Lightning. This is a developing story, and so far details remain scarce on the OTX name at the time of this writing. The FX4 trim level could also make its way to the upcoming Ford Maverick, as it’s found on both the F-Series and Ranger line of trucks also. The Timberline sub-brand indicates a touch of ruggedness to Ford’s otherwise more pedestrian vehicles outside of the Ford Bronco, Ranger, and F-150 families. It’s expected that the upcoming small pickup truck will have some semblance of off-road capabilities, and could be used for the truck in lieu of the new ‘ Timberline‘ trim level that recently debuted on the 2021 Ford Explorer. So I suppose the change was distributed through something other than Microsoft Update, or Defender signature updates. The only thing that changed was that it sat idle there for a bit.
The very same VM that allowed the registry read now prevents it. While the ‘OTX’ name is a mystery, it’s a possibility that the trim level could be adorned to the Ford Maverick. fabianbader splintercode rucam365 SecGuruOTX GossiTheDog NathanMcNulty Ah, interesting.
While it doesn’t sound like a nameplate for a future product, it could be a trim level, possibly on the 2022 Ford Maverick small pickup truck. Ford Motor Company has gone to apply for the “OTX” trademark with intent for use on “vehicles, namely, automobiles, pick-up trucks, electric vehicles, sport utility vehicles, off-road vehicles, and their structural parts.” The trademark filing took place on May 14, 2021.
