What do you (will you) miss from your old vehicle in the Maverick?

Definitely has to be autosteer from my (former) Model 3 (not to be confused with the FSD I also had but isn't missed). Essentially advanced lane keep and adaptive cruise.

OpenPilot FTW

Not having a car payment. But in about every other way (fuel economy, features, technology), the Maverick should be a step up from my 2012 Mazda 6. Though I may miss having an enclosed trunk from time to time, and the driving dynamics of a sedan

You should get a hard tonneau cover then you will have a locking trunk a really big one.

I've seen a lot of the "no cruise control in XL trim" posts and started thinking about what I'll miss once my Maverick (finally) gets here. For me it's definitely the no HomeLink button for garage door openers. Sounds trivial but I've had something built into my visor for probably the last 20 years, and now I'm going to have an ugly fob clipped to the visor. Can't wait for a brand new truck, but that little thing just bugs me. You'd think it would be integrated into the Luxury package, or at least a $150-$200 add on...

I still have my 2019 Honda CR-V EXL, now having the Maverick Lariat with the Lariat Lux Pkg and so there is a lot but somewhat trivial but the Homelink button is number 2 on my list following the glove box that DOSEN’T lock. If a thief gains access to your Maverick get a hold of your registration and your clip on garage door opener, well do I need to say more. I’ll be missing the larger and better infotainment display, leather seat, auto dimming rear view mirror, power passenger seat, auto adjusting seat memory and fog lights.

So far love my Maverick but do miss my clutch and changing gears.

Yup!
And a place to rest my right hand while underway.
(Now, now…….keep it clean……)

I had a Subaru WRX... it was a guided missile with a manual transmission. I could go into the hill country, open it up and dive hard into the corners. It was a blast to drive. I go rearended by an unlicensed driver while sitting at an intersection, totaling my car. I really like my Maverick, I will forever miss my WRX.

Glad I'm not the only one that has a problem with no HomeLink. I even got the 1st Edition and just assumed it was included since that seems to be the norm these days.

I'm not looking forward to switching from the hybrid gauges I have in my Fusion to the ancient "analog" one in the Maverick.

I will miss the auto-dimming rearview, driver and passenger side mirrors that I have in my Subaru Forester. Auto-dimming rearview is nice, but the auto-dimming side mirrors was awesome!

The manual transmission in my 2017 Jetta. I have only owned 2 automatics (1983 chevy cavalier and a 2016 F150) as my daily driver since I graduated from high school in the late 1980's.

Being able to throw my 16' canoe on top of my Outback with nothing other than two straps. The built-in roof rack was SO useful. Does anyone have a plan yet for a canoe? And while I miss it, the benefit of having a bed outweighs not having a roof rack.

I might put a roof rack on my Maverick if and when I get it. I would prefer a factory rack (bolt on) versus the kind that go under the door seal, but I guess that might be an option. Then I will get a hitch rack that will hold the back of my 13.5" tandem kayak. I think that is the least obtrusive option. So I don't have a huge rack in the bed all the time.

My low sitting position. Coming from a Mazda3. Need to adjust how hard I take corners.

Currenty drive a MINI Cooper in Volcanic Orange. I won't miss the color with the Cyber Orange Maverick.

You can get this Chamberlain device and use your phone to open it:
I've had mine for years and works with my old mastercraft garage opener.

Don’t you need to pay a subscription for this? And it doesn’t work with Alexa or Siri. If so there are much better options like buying a small module that hooks up to your Wifi and then you can just open it via voice commands when you’re near the driveway.
