When did the Maverick become a midsize?

It had a big breakfast!

All of these quarterly sales records and yet, Ford lots are sitting on inventory as if nothing's selling. Rarely do I ever see people out on the lots looking at cars. Most of the inventory is months old or, in some cases, old enough to have a birthday. Dealerships are ghost towns because of tariff pricing, high interest rates, inflation, corporate price gouging and a terrible economy. That's why I find any of this hard to believe. I know the numbers don't lie but I maybe a bit blindsided.

How do you know that?

All I have to do is go to any F-150 on our lot, find the VIN tag and take a good look at the date of assembly to find out how long it's been there. It's not unheard of to have F-150s or full-size Broncos that have been sitting for several months.

speculation and anecdotes are not statistically valid.

Surge in EV sales was most likely due to the 7K subsidies ending on 30 September. It will be interesting to see Q4 figures all across the board.

Or look at the inspection sticker. I purchased my last Ranger in Feb. of that year and it had an 8 on the inspection sticker so they had it for 6 months. Negotiated a great deal.

not much of a surge they only accounted for about 6 percent of total quarterly sales.

No 2024 Mavericks left at my local Ford dealer.
No 2024 F series or Rangers either.

I live close to one of the largest Ford dealers in the U.S. About 3 times a week I visit their website and
look at the Tremors - both 2024 and 2025. Week after week I see the same Tremors for sale.
Seems like the inventory isn't getting lower.
I can't comment on the rest of the Mavericks since I don't look at those.

+1 to this. There's one 25 maverick that has been on a dealer's lot here for just about a year. They will not budget a penny on price.

And, numbers don't lie but statistics often do
