I am at 13.5 months and it is supposed to arrive this week!!!! But you are right, it does feel like a secret club. I have yet to see one driving in my part of the NC mountains!

I saw a SC in traffic the other day. He slowed way down, I'm guessing to look at my Maverick. I test drove a SC and really liked it, however I just can't get passed the fuel economy.

Like the Subaru Brat....
I checked out the SC before I got my Maverick and thought the same. The turbo SC's fuel economy is really not bad compared to the EB Maverick (the little bit of extra power isn't a bad tradeoff for the little bit more gas burned), but the base model got roughly the same mpg for Maverick Hybrid levels of power - and word on the street is that the hybrid Maverick puts the power down a lot better thanks to the electric motor's instant torque.
What really drove me away from the SC was the price. The cheapest turbo SC stickered for about $37k with the local dealer adding $5k on top of that. I paid msrp (just over $30k) for my Maverick. Even accounting for the goodies the SC included (tonneau cover, "nicer" ride and comfort, cool in-bed trunk), I couldn't justify the SC's base price, let alone a mark up.

He was probably runnin' outa gas!
Can you imagine the how strained hayundai would be if they had the demand Ford has? 
I still havent even seen a Santa Cruze on island, there is like a dozen Mavericks here. Hawaii generally has no love for domestics, being so close to Asia as we are. The first on I saw on the road was a company vehicle. So companies know to trust Ford. And on an island where a 5 year old Taco with rims is a $45k vehicle even Valley Isle Fords standard $5k minimum markup is a deal any Maverick.

Its like if you cut the front off a Baja Bug and drove around in reverse all day. Sounds fun though!”Brats”tards will fight to the death over their umm, vehicle

I too have seen more SC than the Mav. Maybe because it catches your eye more since it is different. The Mav still looks like a Ford truck.
