I did call the dealer today and they said if I ordered and waited the cost would be MSRP, but if I if I wanted a current dealer allowance there would be a mark up. they thought a 24 month wait time. It would be interesting if they would lock in the price.
If anything really over the 70, I would be out. 100 seems crazy, but with inflation it might come faster than we think.
2029....Ford introduces a revamped EcoSport with 1 litre engine for "under $100,00 plus destination".

I’m sure this will take on a lot of critics, but seeing the details on the new Ford Bronco Raptor has cause me to ponder my decision to buy the Maverick. I have to start that my hart has always lead me to the early style Bronco. I unfortunately made the mistake of selling my 66 Bronco about 7 years ago. You might wonder why I made the error in judgement,. The reasoning behind it was I had to clear space in my two car garage for vehicles I use on a daily basis. The 66 had the 170 cubic inch motor, three on the tree, and a max speed of about 55 MPH🤗.

anyway when the new Bronco was released I wasn’t too impressed. It really didn’t represent what I had in mind, thus I with the Maverick.what would really add to my desire, If the new Raptor addition would come with a 7 speed manual. The down side for sure is cost, 70k is a huge chunk oof cash that I don’t know that I’m will to commit. That is assuming a person can find a dealer to seek one without a markup above MSRP.

just wondering what others think of the Bronco Raptor addition. I’m assuming those with a FWD or the Hybrid could not relate with this consideration do to their driving needs. This consideration is more geared to the owners that are modifying their Maverick to be more tilted to off highway driving conditions.

Im sure I will regret posting this, but it’s some I thought was worth asking.

Yeah you can sell your Maverick in 2027 when you can buy a used BRaptor.

I'd guess Ford is a tad concerned about the combination of 400 hp, ultra short wheelbase and extremely high CG. Then factor in the irresistible urge that off road types have to remove doors, roofs and anything else they can think of...

Ford would need to hire 100s of new attorneys.



That is a great article, in my humble opinion offering the two door would have hit it out of the park. The thing I really appreciated of the 66 was basically able to turn around on a dime. It somewhat looked like a clown car how tight it could turn. The 4 door would not be able to make these change. In the back country in Colorado locals know all too well about backing out of a trail that either gets to Extreme or too narrow to continue.

i don’t think I would ever have all 4’s in the air unless for the occasional tire rotation😆

thanks for that link

If it makes you happy and you can afford it, buy what you really want. Heck, if you can afford the Bronco Raptor you can probably afford both :)

I mean, looking at everything you want to do you could just about buy an early bronco and turn it into what you want.

At this point in time good luck finding a deal on a Bronco let alone the raptor. I say build one drive the maverick until it's ready if you can afford one.

Do you man, I ordered the 2022 Sierra duramax, only a couple mpg less on the highway than the Mav and it’s full-size. Plan to trade in too whenever that gets built. Still waiting to get a built Maverick too of course haha

That’s awesome, it’s crazy the efficiency of the diesels. Tons of torque/HP/MPG

I have the LLM and enjoy the heck out of it. It has the 6 speed so i lose a few MPG.

hope you get you Mav soon…
