That rendering is clearly partly based on a Maverick - look at the doors and bed rails.
Agreed. I saw that too.

There's enough plastic cladding to make a Pontiac blush. 🤭

It's a really bad version of a Ford Maverick. Hey, if you can't beat 'em, join' em. 👍

There's been a few if these "renderings". Another crap job of superimposing another manufacturer's truck face on what is clearly a Maverick. Just another link that's not worth the millisecond it takes to click on.

Nope. The C pillars kill it every time for me.

I have a 2017 RAV4. Not pretty on the outside, but if you buy only sheetmetal and paint, you're in big trouble.
I can't see the homely front end from the driver's seat, so it doesn't bother me. Apparently, it doesn't bother used car buyers, either. My RAV is worth almost as much as I gave for it over 5 years ago. 10% depreciation in 5 years. Not bad. Of course that will change if the used car market ever gets back to normal.
Yeah, I have a 2018 Rav4 and at the beginning of this year my car was actually worth more than I paid for it 4 years ago. Now it's worth about 10% below buy still not bad at all. That was the main reason I splurged for a Lariat. Hated my gas mileage and range though which is why I gave it up. 300 miles in an SUV is pathetic.

Based on recent cancellation of 2022 hybrid orders and moving them to 2023, rapid closing of order banks, Fords stated 35% hybrid build and probability that 2023 hybrid orders are considerably greater. Will be no rollover to 2024. I am not very confident my 2023 Lariat hybrid will happen.
Aware all brands have issues, but tundra has been great, and would give toyota a shot. Older and retired so don't need a full or mid size truck.
New tundra already having waste gate issues with their turbo tundras. Toyota ain't what it used to be. Better off with an older model V8 or new F150

These are renderings from outside the company. While I love the idea of more of these smaller trucks coming to market, I’ll believe it when I see it. Until then, Ford has got my money whenever the truck arrives.

That is literally a Maverick with a whole lotta platic crap and wannabe hummerjeep stuff rendered on to it.

In other news, did you see the poor guys post about the last toyota that tried to tackle a Maverick? Looked like it got kicked in the face by a Hulk!

Toyota will be hard pressed to match pricing on a XL Hybrid for the truck line. Mayyyybe the Turbo EB. But they will start low the first year, then crank prices up saying "It's a Toyota!" Pfffft!

J-manuf. charge high prices for hybrid drivetrains now, so what makes them think they can charge a lower price to be price competitive by 2024?

That's a Maverick. This reminds me of those shitty Ranger renders before it was released here that made it look like a midget F-150 Raptor and everyone freaked out only for it to look like the global truck.
