Received my Maverick with 40 miles on it and found sticker: "selected at random for road testing following assembly"

Judging by the color of paper and quality of the print, this could have been printed in 1982 - lol!

Perhaps they have a machine that actually sends the truck back to 1982 for testing...

... I received my truck with 40 miles already on it ....

It is unlikely to make a difference but I am pretty sure that would mean that your 36,000 warranty goes to 36,040 miles.

Nope Middle East Monday… Looking forward to my falafels

It's nice that they did that, unless it was the guys from Ferris Bueller's Day Off!

Unfortunately, it does not.

New vehicle limited warranty:

The sale or in‐service date becomes the vehicle’s recognized warranty start date (This is the date when the new vehicle’s limited warranty coverage begins). The vehicle’s mileage warranty coverage begins at zero miles.

A: Coverage begins at the warranty start date and zero miles and expires at the earlier of the number of months purchased or the number of miles purchased.

I wonder how many cases of Corona fit in the box of a Maverick, that might have been the test.

At least you have yours. I only have one more week that I can get pushed back before the my23's start production. I don't know what happens then, do they push the 23's back or just say sorry we are cancelling the remainder of the 22MY orders.

My hybrid arrived at the dealership with 41 miles. After my test drive it had 91. Which was the delivered mileage. I guess mine was evaluated also.

What I find fun about this is that it looks like they haven't changed that "form" since September of 1982. Unless I am reading their version/revision notes incorrectly. I am a weirdo, but always find it fascinating to see how "old" some things are that are still being printed without any need for update or change.

I agree, that’s curious. As far as I know, the plant n Mexico didn’t exist in 1982.

mine had 34 miles on it and was delivered to dealer with 32 mils on it, no note of it was used as a test vehicle to boot.

Yeah, but at least it's the September 1982 version. I heard the July 1982 version had a bunch of typos.

Me too. I ordered a '23 as a backup. I'm hoping they extend the '22 assembly line a month.
I would imagine that if we run out of time we get converted.
