Sorry, guilty as charged. Here's a snide sarcastic reply to your reply. You seem to be repeating yourself 😆. But I do thank you for your input.
There are some folks who lack any type of humor or understand sarcasm. They are the Aaron Hotchner's of the land.
Everything is a serious as a heart attack. Be serious or don't post otherwise you're a ???? 🧌 I guess that's better than being called an A.I. bot. 🤖

As we all know the demographic of Maverick Forum members tends to be on the plus side of 50. When a very active member stops posting at all I get a knot in my stomach. I tell myself they just lost interest or are to busy living life to check in. A few that were very regular commenters I haven't seen in a long time are @Maverick Country Club, @oysterville, @Ozarkbeard, @HenryFord. I know there are others that I am forgetting. If any of you long time inactive members see this just want to say we miss your input.
I'm not aware of anyone dis

After the third time having to use a jump box to start mine, I sold it back to the dealer. The last time, I had to drive 40 miles with ONE brake working and SEVEN urgent messages rolling across the dash screen. Before you say, "Drive it more", it always had a Battery Tender Jr on it.
Soon, my NINE YEAR OLD RAV4 will be replaced with another Toyota. The RAV has the original battery in it. Also, always plugged into a Battery Tender Jr.
The Maverick cost me $10,000 dollars for 3 years use. Paid $36,000, got check for $26,000.
Care to guess what the Toyota lost in 9 years? $10,000. Paid $26,000, getting $16,000 trade in.
The Maverick was my first and last Ford.
Not impressed.
My 2019 GT350R is worth about 25k more then what I paid for it.

But I totally get it... I mean having to replace the battery on a vehicle?? The horror!!

You sound like someone who drives the speed limit in the fast lane.

You have not and I apologize because you were another member I was thinking of but couldn't recall the name. Glad you are still shoveling dirt instead of lying in it.

Far enough back for a missing persons report but within current member still participating status.

Old geezers is right. Every time I see a Mav in the wild it's some old guy driving it. I think I might be the youngest Mav owner at a staggering 33 years old.
Old and geezers are not synonymous terms.
Geezerhood has an attitude component. I've met teenaged geezers.

As far as being the youngest, that's possible, but then you are too old to be the original Maverick target demographic, being older than 30, not a first time buyer, etc, etc..

The best part is when they see your Maverick in the drive thru at McDonald's they automatically give you the senior discount 🤣
