Wasn't really expecting it once I got my Maverick, but anytime I come across another owner there is always a wave and a smile. One time I ran into another owner at the gas station and we had a nice brief conversation. It's kind of like joining a small club of really nice people.

You'll get waves and smiles from Santa Cruz owners too, because they understand what you bought. An SC came driving down my quiet street a few weeks ago and we exchanged huge smiles and waves.

Mavericks, Broncos and Corvettes are the peacocks of the modern era.

Maverick is the only vehicle I have owned that after 3 months of ownership I have zero regrets.

And of course the regular Mav owners I drive by in Carlsbad tend to know when we will be on the road flashing honking and waving at each other.

like the first gen vw bug owners.

That's one reason I ride a motorcycle. But, I get you, I've had conversations with Maverick owners and they've always been pleasant and helpful. I guess the ordeal of the wait is a bond.

It's kinda cool. I've had jeeps, motorcycles and a miata and we all wave to each other. If I ever see another maverick on the road I'll wave to them too. Enthusiast vehicles are awesome.

I wave at every Maverick I see, problem is they have all been oblivious to me or my Mav. I was at a stoplight sitting right next to a guy. I looked over at him but he was just staring straight ahead, Oh well.

I don't have mine yet but they are on my radar. I've seen about 8 Mavericks and one Hyundai. They've all been totally stock, hope to see some mods.

I had a girl pop out of a store near where I parked and tell me she loved my maverick. I'm old and fat so there's no pretending it was an excuse to chat me up. She really liked the mav. :cry::ROFLMAO:

Where I live it's rare to see another Maverick. In fact most people around here don't even know the Maverick exists. As a Ford share holder I'm disappointed that Ford hasn't came out with plans to double production for this vehicle. With the new tax credit Ford could stick a small 7 KWH battery and a charge port in the existing hybrid and score a $7,500 tax credit. Even with the higher cost battery the base maverick plug in could be bought for less than $20,000.
