2025 Maverick Wait is Finally Over

[Mavman1]

My 2025 Maverick XLT Hybrid 4K, Oxford White that I ordered in April finally arrived. I had Line-X spray in bed liner applied this week. Photos show the truck and SIBL coverage to the rear bed flange at the tailgate and also the bed flange just below the cab window. I thought I would share photos and hope you enjoy viewing. By the way, I like large parking lots with no vehicles in them. Next task: the endless list of accessories!

Next task: the endless list of accessories!

First off, it looks great!

Why bother with a list? You KNOW you will buy everything anyhow...

Hello and welcome to MTC. Congratulations on your new Maverick. Very nice, but I'm partial to white.

Nice, congratulations!

If you install a tonneau cover, I'm curious how the front gasket will stick to the bedliner. With the Ford SIBL, the top lip doesn't get coated so the gasket sticks properly

Thank you. I really enjoy this truck. Yes, eventually I will probably get a tonneau cover as they seem popular. I have read various forums about the issue of fastening the cover to the front lip with different opinions and solutions. I believe some have ordered from Amazon a roll of thick rubber gasket material with adhered adhesive to run across the coated lip to help secure and water seal.

Thanks! Your right about ordering all the extra accessories as long as my wife does not find out. Then I will be in the dog house instead of having fun tinkering with the truck in the garage.

It definitely was a long wait with each step dragging on (order, schedule, built, shipped, delivered). I had a feeling that it would arrive just about when the 26 orders began. I did not think it would be this close! Oh well, at least I am happy I got the rear seat arm rest pull down that I understand is to be eliminated in 26.

For sure. You will love it. I love my 24 XLT and I use my backseat armrest all the time with my kids and their friends…. especially the cupholders in there. Kind of sucks to hear about things that they eliminate that are practical.

Methinks she might get suspicious anyhow depending on how much time you spend tinkering!

Wow! That's a good point. I think any bed cover you put on will the lip sprayed will leak.

I say to all new owners, there is so much that can be done before you accessorize. I'd recommend dropping the spare while it's new and wax it before any rust can take hold (mine got some rust). Wax the paint and wheels, maybe rain-ex the glass. Interior protection too. If I had to do over, I would have applied interior protector at the beginning to mitigate scuffing, scratching and staining all of the surfaces.

Also if you drive it for a while first, you might find you don't need things that you thought were "must have" accessories.

Some of us waited a lot longer. 6 months to order a vehicle to your liking is pretty quick.
