Seeing a big bunch in Central Florida. Saw two in the span of a few minutes today.

I bought a maverick in December that the person didn’t take delivery off. Mine that I ordered delivered two weeks ago, someone else bought it in my area and I see it in the road once a week

Seeing quite bit on the SoCal roads . I don’t think it’s going be rare at all by December !

I see 4 regularly in NE FL but still very rare to see one on my monthly round trips to upper SC.

Up in Saginaw, MI (the Tri-Cities as a whole) I still rarely see them, maybe 1 or 2 per month. When I travel down to my hometown in Canton, MI, they feel a bit like a dime a dozen. Makes sense down there though, that's bigtime Ford country being right down the road from Dearborn (even my parents are 30+ year Ford employees, though my dad just recently retired LOL).

North Alabama, I still only rarely see one, and I travel all over North Alabama for work.

I am starting to see more Mavericks!! No matter who is driving we all have the same reaction...a big smile,pointing,thumbs up,etc!!!

Mine is one of 4 I see regularly in Buffalo NY. The municipalities around here also have a lot of them that I see at their various county/town events

Is mine one of the 4? Can't imagine missing me with my license plate.

You Maverick folks in Texas, when I spot you half a mile away and am blinking my brights and waving like a maniac, could ya at least be Texas polite and give me a quick blip of the lights, maybe a wave? Heck, flip me off, I would settle for that.

Wait - you live in Frisco, and you're actually suggesting a fellow Maverick owner take his eyes off the traffic to notice you and wave?

For those who don't know it, Frisco is one of the fastest-growing communities in the US. They actually have decent city planners, and have done a better job than most to anticipate this growth, but it's still overwhelming the capacity of "services" - most notably roads and highways. Add to that the influx of a LOT of "new to the area" people, and you've got a LOT of unpredictable driving. I've had more near-misses in Frisco than the rest of north Texas combined. (So I "fixed" that by moving to Cedar Park, outside of Austin - one of the other fastest-growing areas in the country! You'd think I would learn!)

But, hey @FriscoTXJoe, I'll still take my life in my hands and wave to you if I see you!

took a little drive to the closest Cub Cadet dealer for a new RTS1 mower and spotted a red First Edition Maverick on the way home. not a huge deal but it was followed by a Sport.

Got an up close experience at the store the other day, a wild Mav was parked next to the wife's Highlander. Eyeball comparison the Mav looked lower but a little longer than the Highlander and almost as wide.

I've got 25 years experience driving these roads. Preston was one lane when I got here! Enjoy CP, beautiful area.

I'm starting to see a lot around here as well. Always wave at them but not a single one has waved back yet.

There are a ton in the Bay Area. Starting to see them as work trucks regularly. There are also two others in my neighborhood, and one who parks right by me at work.

The Maverick does look a little lower, which is deceptive. With the ground clearance and the headroom, you think it should be much taller. But the lack of a frame means the cabin sits just at the height of the clearance. No frame/drive shaft to add needed height.
