Personally I'm not a "Fanboy". I like my Maverick and its what I chose to throw my miles on with decent MPG. My Jeep on Fuzion 1 tons, 38" tires and 5.38 gears gets a whopping 12.9 MPG on its best day. The VW Ghia is fun, but small and too sentimental to drive all the time. (Was my dads since new).

Maverick is far from perfection, but it is perfect for my daily needs and it has some character to it. I've done some mods and ForScan stuff, just making the best of what it is. I think a lot of guys are doing the same thing. I could pick it apart all day, but I knew it was a throw away shitbox when i purchased it. Shittbox, but fun none the less

My 2024 corvette had a hazy sandblasted winshield look at an angle and rattle that the dealer couldn't fix. I had a friend order one at his glass shop then hit it with a hammer and got it covered under comprehensive. Never had a problem since. Ethical? Maybe not. Problem solved? Hell yes. Now the thin paint issue on my maverick bumper is pissing me off but the dealer knows I'm coming in hot. It will be repainted.

You must work in sales at a Ford dealership.
Nope, but thanks for your ignorant opinion.
My first Ford in a very long time. I just like the vehicle, and you can't handle that.
Too bad for you.
Using your logic, you must be a troll from Hyundai.

Your point is more valid than mine...
Your words, not mine, but I don't give a healthy toss about your opinions.

Yes I ranted after hours of searching and seeing the same damn issues over and over.
I'm glad you wasted your time., but I'm done wasting mine.
Buh-Bye.

I didn't buy it so I could leave it at the dealer for weeks fixing these issues. I don't believe for a second everyone doesn't have these issues. Too much coping and sticking up for this sort of thing is why they get away with it.
You dont have to believe me but I dont have those issue. If you dont love it then fix the problem and quit whining. I loved mine on the drive home and have kept adding more to make it mine. You might see that as oh it should have been perfect from the start but if you think that way everything will disappoint you.

I would lose my rear end ... Not to that point yet. I wish they had area 51 for 2026.
I hope they bring it back in 2033...

One thing that we can aways count on, in this forum, is that people are going to Bitch.
They bitch about their Maverick or Ford or the dealership.
They bitch about the price they paid.
They bitch about people bitching and that causes the original bitcher to bitch back about other people’s lack of empathy to their bitching.
Too damm funny and absolutely the truth :cwl:

Here’s a unique concept. Try this for a forum topic:
“I just discovered something cool about my Maverick and I wanted to share it with you!"
I discovered that I can drive my '23 Tremor from NC to CT and back, traveling about 2500 miles in the span of 7 days, through snow storms, slush, and some of the roughest roads known to man and still average over 28MPG with no rattles bothering me.

Arrived home yesterday with an Atlas blue truck that looked like some weird shade of salted grey... it took a while to get it clean, but I'm retired so I had all day today to do it 😁

I will agree that the wind noise can be troublesome at 75 MPH, but that's what the volume button/knob is for 😉

14,100 miles and 13 months later my 2024 eco lariat is grave yard silent.
No rattles anywhere.
My suspension has not loosened up,
No clicking,

Re check lug nut torque.
You're lucky You don't have any rattles or clicking noises!! One of the reasons out of [3 or 4] was the bad dash rattles in the 2023 BS BB I had and is one of the reasons I got rid of it. Now the Maverick has the bad clicking noises from what seems like the Windshield Alignment Pins so Ford IMO should have these problems figured out by now.

Yeah well it's not a truck on frame and therefore it is a car/truck which I as a Ridgeline owner have zero issues with and therefore expect a more car like vehicle. You be you cause your special.

Give me the Maverick body with the refinement of the Ridgeline.
Why didn't You buy another Ridgeline? Was it because of the Mileage?

While I guess Fords aren't the only Vehicles with rattles and Corvettes are expensive. So it sucks for You they couldn't fix the rattle!!
