Sold...Maverick XL Hybrid

[Old Hickory Trojan]

After comparing the SC and our needs to our Maverick, we decided to sell the XL and Carvana picked it up today and gave us a check for $32,870.00 which we were pleased with and based upon the 19 months we waited for the Mav we figured we got $450.00 a month for every month we waited after we deducted our cost to buy and their check. Hated to see it go but we had 5 vehicles sitting in our driveway for just the wife and myself.. One is our Motorhome for vacationing. One was our Jeep for doing work down at the farm. One was our Crosstrek for scooting around the countryside and one was our small pickup for trips to Lowes, filling our gas cans, hauling garbage to the dump etc....so that left the Maverick...which would have to replace one of those vehicles...and the only one it could replace was the SC....and wife loves the SC....not going to happen and from my perspective of all of them the Maverick was the only one we could actually make a fair amount of money on....so we sold it and it had absolutely no recalls even though it was built May 5 this year. Gotta sell a few Maverick accessories next.

Carvana is crazy. I just checked their offer for my 2023 Hybrid Lariat Lux with everything except a moonroof (including BAP) and 1300 miles. They offered $33,375. Congrats on your sale. We also have 4 vehicles and a motorhome, but can't bring ourselves to sell any of them for one reason or another.

That is crazy...sounds like they tried to low ball you to me. No way that the difference in your offer and mine should be that close if you have that higher trimmed model IMHO

KBB estimates in the $39,900-$42,900 range. A bit more realistic. Carvana was highest by far when we were considering selling the 2019 MX-5 at $26,700...but sure are off on the Maverick.

Considering not keeping my Maverick if it ever gets built. Looks like Carvana is a good option. Have been very unhappy seeing so many issues with this vehicle. I need reliable transportation. SC been issue free??

I don't think anything is "issue free" if you build enough of them. But maybe they've had less recalls. Not sure.

That said, there have only been 2 recalls on my truck, and it's a first year model. To have only 2 recalls on a 1st year model is pretty good in my opinion. AND I've had 0 problems in 11+ months and 16k miles of driving it.

Nope to be honest the SC has had two major flaws that I am aware of. The SEL model with the tow package has a recall for it's 4 pin harness because it has a moisuture problem that could potentially cause a fire. So they recommend parking it outside. They have engineered a replacement harness but it's not available yet. As far as the higher level model which has the turbo engine and the DCT transmission. The SC has a problem with the DCT transmission that they have implemented software changes on. Seems a lot of confusion on whether or not the software changes have been successful across the board. I personally avoided that issue by going with the lower level SEL which has no engine or transmission issues. Since I have the tow package I can either wait for the newly designed harness from Hyundai or simply purchase one from Curt or even upgrade to a 7 pin from Hyundai or Curt. It's a simple plug in connection in a box underneath the SC. Hyunda will pay for any wrk done outside of Hyundai for a replacement harness.

Last time I looked the Maverick had 6 recalls and numerous TSB's since 2022. Most of the recalls have been significant. From leaking gas tanks, side airbags, and two for potential engine fires and engine machining issues for engine failures along with child seat retainers that didn't retain the child seats.d and contiuing paint issues as well as a few leaking cabs from water damage as well as an off and on issue with the windshield cracking or rattle...

Yes values are all over the board. Carfax had mine valued at $36, 440 which I still don't know where they came up with that number. Unfortunately they don't buy trucks to my knowledge or I would have dealt with them..
