Nah, they're too greedy. When even a base nissan sentra has it, you know they're just doing it for profit maxing.

I have it in my Lariat and while it works fine, I wish the system would stop telling me to put my hands on the wheel (which is where they are ALWAYS) when the real issue is that a long straight piece of road (damn modern highway engineering) is so common. Having to wiggle the steering wheel just because the truck thinks my hands are off the wheel is irritating.
I had to upgrade to a Lariat to get rear parking sensors. Why couldn't I get them on the fully equipped XLT I started with?

1. Those XLs look gnarly without the black wrap on the "B" pillar. I know some people like that look, but talk about cost-cutting!

2. I couldn't care less about the ACC, but if Ford could start with adding a one-touch "UP" function to the driver's window that'd be real peachy.

Ford needs to give the Maverick EB the manual shifting automatic transmission buttons or paddles (Selectshift) like every other Ford model with an ICE. Not just the Lobo - but XL/XLT/Lariat/Tremor.

Like every other manufacturer with an ICE. Been around for 20 years with Ford even.

Thank you Ford. And Tim for asking.

How is that different than Bronco Sport. It's made at the same plant and get it includes ACC.

Ford Needs to Give the Ford Maverick XLT the Adaptive Cruise Control
First let me correct something. Ford won't be giving anything to anybody.
A correct title would be.
Should Ford have adaptive cruise control as an add-on option to XLT's.

Do I like adaptive cruise control? Yes.
How much extra would I pay for it as a add on?? I don't know.

I would have loved a Lariat, had Ford offered fabric seats. Instead of fake leather which is intolerable in the summertime when the temperatures are 110°+ ambient 140°- 150° interior, here in the desert Southwest.

Perforated pleather / ActiveX would offer some type of airflow versus the solid material.

That's not normal. I can keep two fingers on the wheel and I don't get this message.

Yes they do but they won't, it's an upsell. I wouldn't have bought a Lariat if I could get ACC on an XLT- I had to rationalize all the other Lariat features and haggle the price down the stomach the Lariat price. Maybe we'll get a mod eventually like the pre-2025s.

Agree 100% Tim. Your sales record should have earned you some serious company clout by now. Flex your Ford muscles on our behalf!

Seriously!!

co-pilot 360 needs to be standard. It’s 2025!

co-pilot 360 technology + co-pilot 360 assist are the same. Website uses one name window sticker another.

co-pilot 360 + co-pilot 360 1.0 are the same. But again show differently depending on where you see it.

wth? Blis needs to be at least part of the basic. Like every new car has blind spot monitoring but not this one.

Agree. Coming from an F-150 I miss not being able to see which gear I'm in as well.

Yep, even my Corolla with a CVT had a manual mode that would indicate the “gear” you were in. Even though the CVT had a belt not gears.

Oh man let’s not make this a 50k truck. I love that I paid just over 30k

The $25k Corolla has had adaptive cruise control for years - along with the top of line “safety sense” features.
