I have two Ford Mavericks, Lariat or Lariat Tremor. Which one should I keep.

My Tremor is being shipped right now so I have to decide. My Lariat can tow 4k and has better mileage, but I love the Tremor. I do not like the gas mileage though on the Tremor as it is only 21 mpg. We were thinking of selling it ourselves but not sure it is worth the hassle.

You will have to get em both, take em for a spin around the neighborhood. Then get out and park em next to each other. Look back and forth and keep the one that makes you smile more. Metrics and stuff are all useless and subjective to enjoyment factor.

These questions arise so much and I just don't understand them.

You don't need others to tell you what you need. Do you need to tow 4k? Then the 4K one. Do you like the added offroad capability and looks and not need 4k? Then the tremor. Everyone here will have a different opinion because those all have different values to them.

You are absolutely right. I know which one I should get but also know which one I want. I need the towing as I found the perfect trailer so probably keeping the 4k. I did not know the tremor could not handle towing as much until after I ordered it.

Sell both and get a hybrid.

No disrespect to the OP, but I'm starting to view these multiple-Maverick posts as a veiled form of bragging.

Actually, not bragging. I was looking for some input as this is the first truck I have owned. There is nothing to brag about as I am only buying one. Thought the tremor would take another year as my previous Maverick did, I was surprised to hear it has shipped already and now I have to make a decision after only driving my current Maverick for 4 months. Maybe this is not the place I should be asking for advice about a new truck.

The reality is that no one but you can answer the question you're asking and I was just venting a little about the frequency of "which one do I keep" posts. No offense was intended and my apologies if offense was taken.

It's the place to ask. Brush it off. Remember a lot of us have waited months and sometimes more than a year to get one; many still don't even have that one it scheduled yet. Helping you sort out which one to keep can feel like Ford rubbing salt - even if it just comes down to chance.

Sounds like you want the Tremor but concerned about towing. If you already know you're over 2K, you can test the limits or respect the warranty on the Tremor. If you're mechanically minded, maybe read over some of the posts about Tremor towing. There has been some discussion about it's capabilities and IIRC, suggestion that the 2K might be very conservative. Again though - even if that's the case - you're outside the listed limit and taking on all the risk associated with that not least of which could be liability for any consequential problems.

they said they need to tow 4K and that’s why they don’t want the tremor. Doing this does nothing for them.

It's not bragging if you can do it.

It seems that some are experiencing order envy, perhaps?
