Definitely fits your needs! Your lucky my fur goblin. Wants to see what it feels to be in the driver seat at all times. She wants to look at my pedals, the gauge cluster, and while he is at it wants to drive lol.

I love your harness.
It's sad to see how many 4 legged children are loose in vehicles! Especially the ones between the driver and the airbag or hanging out an open window!

On that note, I was walking my dog the other day and some dog jumps out of a car window to come attack us. The pug did not stand a chance to my blue heeler but he did try lol

Dam the whole family! Lol congratulations who was the first to buy one?
My 22 ecoboost AWD was our first Mav then wife got an 23. Then we traded the the 22 for her 24 HPR, I got her 23 then about a year ago I trade the 23 for a 25.
Our son was a late bloomer, he got his 25 about 10 months ago. I’m still far behind my F150 supercrew crew ownership, I’ve owned 11 of them. Guys at work used to wonder what truck I’d be driving that day. Over the years my wife and I have owned well over a 100 Ford, Lincoln, Mercury vehicles.

The tech of the Lariat but they need to fix the colors. Blue dash with brown/black seats and black floors and electric blue flashes and red or green paint was all just too much clash.

Tremor toned the interior/exterior mismatch down a lot. I also think it rides better somehow.
I traded in a 2024 Lariat for a 2025 Tremor because of the ride.

If this message was addressed to me, the answer is no as I trade so close that he’d be hard pressed to buy even a fishing boat and with out an engine at that. But I will say that I have had them buy me a tire one time and they have given me a used truck as a loaner several times and come pickup and deliver my truck for service back before Ford started doing that type of stuff.

XLT Lux. I was looking at a Lariat, but just could not see spending the extra money on it. The XLT Lux package has almost everything I wanted for a bit better price point. If I was still commuting, I may have gone with the Lariat, but probably not. The Lux package added better seats, butt warmers, heated wheel, etc. It was a good compromise on cost and features.
That's exactly how I felt. However, it would be nice to have the push button start and the B&O sound system.

The Lariat is within spitting distance of being the vehicle the Maverick deserves to be.

I'm not surprised that the XLT is a bigger seller, because dealers love to sell upgrades, but when you look at what you get, is it really worth it?

You get an "upgraded" interior in the XLT, but I liked the XL better. Personal choice.
I drove both because there were no XL hybrids on the lot, but I liked the seats better on the XL.
I prefer manual seats, others don't.

You get an easier to steal push to start instead of a more secure keyed option.
That was "key" for me and pun intended.

You get upgraded wheels that can be easily upgraded to whatever you like.

You get a trailer hitch with just a 4 pin connector in the XLT.
I got both 4 and 7 pin connectors with the 4K on my XL with a brake controller.

Bed tie-downs are included in the XLT, and I added, the bed is just waiting for someone to install them.

A 400W in-bed power outlet, is included but if I wanted that, I could buy a better inverter myself.
The XL has 12 volts in the bed already gthat can be used for that.

The XLT also has bed lighting that I got for free with my bed cover.

About the only advantage I could see is the ability to add package, which would be a good reason if I wanted any of those options, but I didn't.

For less money, I ended up with what I consider to be a more capable vehicle.

My dealer didn't try to sell any upgrades as I configured what I wanted and sent the order over to them. Being from AZ you wouldn't be interested in the LUX package with the heated seats and steering wheel, but being in the Midwest it makes all the difference in the world. My wife loves it so that's all I need to say.

I've got a hybrid XL 4k tow pack and I feel like its perfect for my needs. I think the tow package is a great addition because it gives blind spot monitoring and lane centering. If forced to buy today I'd order the same thing.

However IF the Lobo was available with 4k tow, that's the only way I'd consider an ecoboost model. Conversely I'd consider a Tremor if it was available as a hybrid with no loss in capability.

Although I know it's not strictly necessary I wish the 4k tow for non Tremor models included tires that were one load range greater and Trail Terrain with severe snow service rating.

After all this time, I would still chose the Tremor. I still feel the price is a bit high for it to be lacking certain features (Rain sensing wipers, auto dim mirrors exterior/interior, built in garage door opener and power passenger seat) and I wish it was a little easier to get good highway mileage (Getting between 22-24 MPG) but beyond that I love how she looks and drives.

I debated long and hard before ordering my '25 Lariat. After one year there are a few options I couldn't go without if I had the money. The camera's and synch4 I use daily, love the "pleather" upholstery. It's the little things I appreciate in my older years.
