Got our 2025 Maverick yesterday -- Lariat, Ruby Red with BAP

[dmo94556]

Yesterday we pivoted from our Job 2 order - Lariat in Eruption Green with 4k tow, spray in liner and sunroof. Our original order was for the Eruption Greet Lariat was placed 11/17/24 and only learned about it being a Job 1 order about a month later after seeing Tim's video. So we placed a new order for same spec and that's the 3/17/25 build. The Job 1 order arrived 2/1/25 and so I was comparing that to this Ruby Red after I saw it on the lot. That Red was also a Special Order that someone declined.

We could have waited for our 3/17 build however with the looming tariff uncertainty I decided to get the Job 1 Lariat in Ruby Red with BAP. It was a tough call because 1) we wanted the 2x Pro features as expected when initially placing the order 11/17/24, and 2) I love the Eruption Green. The Ruby Red was impressive and with BAP I liked the black seats and accents better; might remove the hood stickers but for now I like the look. To boot, I pushed for the $300 discount that Tim talked about for not having the Job 2 features (despite the dealer saying they didn't show anything) + an additional $500 if I took it yesterday as a compromise to my order since I did not spec BAP. NET: Bird in hand won. During paperwork I declined the warranty for now but will get it eventually. Thankfully Walnut Creek Ford here in NorCal does not add markup or unnecessary options. our sales guy Dante and the team were great to work with and no pressure.

As soon as I got home I started adding some of the Mabett items I ordered from the holiday sale. Still a few more to put on like the fender well arches and door pull cubbies -- they seem really snug so I waited to do them later.

Lots to get familiar with still. First up, how to keep in electric mode as long as possible before triggering the motor to come on.

Ruby Red is the only color I would order on a Maverick with that new front look. It seems most 2025 Mavericks are being ordered in Green, so Red is the way to go!

This color and Velocity Blue really stick out with the BAP. Very good looking truck, congrats and enjoy.

Those pics were the day before when I first saw it. When picked up it was clear. I’ll post better pics later.

Picked mine up last week and just beat the rain. My retirement gift to myself. lol

Lariat, BAP looks great in that Blue! Congrats on your retirement. Enjoy it

The red and blue are definitely the most attractive colors. Congrats!

Looks like you've got my luck, every time I've picked up a new vehicle to take home it's been pouring rain. About 10 times in my life.

Picking up my Lariat Hybrid in Blue at noon today. Totaled my 2023 Hybrid February 10. I'm grabbing what's available.

Ford's ruby red might be one of the better car colors out there. It's just so beautiful. Used to have it on my F150 before I got my Maverick, definitely wish I could have it again!

When I needed a new truck quickly I found a Hot Pepper red Lariat with AWD and 4k tow that had been a special order and left at the dealership so I took it. Mine has the BAP also. No sunroof or hood decals on my 23 though. Not that I wanted those items anyway.
