No it doesn’t but then again it’s not nearly as wide as mid or full size trucks so there really isn’t a need for them.
It's not about being too wide that you need them, it's about how people get close to any vehicle forgetting the mirror sticks out and hitting it. No matter how wide it is people will get close.

I'm still waiting for my Mav, in the meanwhile we have a 2017 Cherokee Latitude and a 2020 Cherokee Trailhawk. (She's a little miffed that I'm not getting her another Cherokee and driving her leftovers this time.) She will put hers on the center line so I have to be careful. She pulls in on the right so I back in on the left, no room to open either passenger door. And I guess her mirror could clip mine if she backed out first. But that's why they fold both directions. :rolleyes: You may have a point, my friend.
Thanx!! Well, yeah, I getting to be an experienced veteran at this getting old crap. :ROFLMAO:

Good luck with getting your '24. 99% of us here have found these little buggies to be up to all the hype about them. The comments I get from people you would think I was driving a Bentley. LOL.

Love my moonroof and will use it often. Truck is garage kept so I expect to have fewer issues.

If your state allows front and side window tints, then you're in a very backwards state. Maybe consider moving to more normal places, where the cops can actually see what you're doing when you get stopped. There is also the huge problem in that dark tint makes it impossible to actually see properly at night, or even at twilight.
Here in the deep South of.......Ohio - I can tint my front windows to 50% and my front windshield to 70%.

I tinted my front windows to closely match the factory OEM rear of 20ish% and then tinted the front windshield 70% both with ceramic film. It is a secondary violation so I can only be cited for it if pulled over for something else.

We're doing just fine as far as our police force is concerned here too.

I would avoid using the sunroof. There is a little plastic clip in it that keeps the window from slamming and shattering when opening/closing. That little plastic clip moves with every use and will get so far pushed back into the mechanism, that the window will no longer be operational. The fix is over $2k as they have to pull out the whole sunroof to get to it.
Why would anyone get a sunroof and then avoid using it?? I constantly use mine, mostly not fully open but with the partial open option with the back sliding window open. The best.

If industry standard means the truck heats up like a toaster oven then perhaps the standards are way to low.
Aaarrrggghhh!!! The standard is "PRIVACY GLASS". The light from the interior to the exterior is limited so the outsider cannot see the inside but the insider can see through to the outside. Privacy glass does block a small percentage of light from outside to inside along with some or even most ultraviolet light. Regular tint and some ceramic tint do NOT BLOCK infra red which is the heating wavelength. If you are buying tint to reduce heat accumulation you must specify a tint which blocks IR light. 5% visual light blockage tint with 99% Infra Red blockage can be purchased for windshield to keep heat from coming through windshield. Tint with IR blockage can cost about 1/3rd more. Front passenger doors cannot have over a low amount of privacy or tint in order for Police or Others which need to be able to see occupants.

Personally I think tint can be too dark, but try living where it’s always sunny and warm and you might change your tune. I’m also not worried about putting a LEO at risk if I break the law and get pulled over, and crazy as it seems, my windows do roll down if that’s a concern, so one can tint and still be courteous.

I’m not sure I understand what you’re talking about🤔 This is my second Mav with a sunroof that I open and close several times a day until winter and I’ve not had any problems. 28k miles on my ‘22 and 6305 miles on this one. Do you have pictures of what you’re talking about so I can look at mine?

Why is everyone worried, and asking about folding mirrors? Even the Lariat with lux package doesn't have HOMELINK. The Maverick fits in a garage, not even an option.
On my case I'm thinking on parking lots, the more compact the more secure, between ppl slamming their doors, letting loose the chopping carts in the middle or plain and simple crossing between cars and hitting your car is a mess, just parking next to a road, or when i gonna take my bikes and the truck is leaving almost no space to take it out, those are just a few of the scenarios that come to my mind.

Its not about you being super nice and rolling your window down, its about the people who do not play nice and are pointing a weapon at the officer or wherever. Its also about making it easier for those black helicopters looking for drivers toking up or slugging back another beer before they kill someone. Its about bad actors being seen in time. Dark tint should almost mean that you should be frequently pulled over and the vehicle searched, as you're hiding something. I understand that global warming now means that its getting too hot to live in Florida, but that's why people who still want to live there should get the moonroof, rear window ventilation, and air conditioning. Similarly, I live up north where heated seats and steering wheel and inside heat are appreciated a lot.

I don't know about Canada but in the US they don't cruise around in choppers trying to bust someone smoking a joint or drinking beer in their car.

Presumption of guilt based on window tint is a slippery slope. I know someone with blacked out windows prone to migraines, should every cop pulling her over assume she is smoking weed, chugging beer and ready to shoot them ? I know she has dropped her windows in the past when getting pulled over. If a criminal is going to shoot a cop from their car, I doubt the deciding factor is their window tint.

I guess that is the beauty of living in what state/country you like right ? I enjoy the freedoms afford to me living in Texas. Don't legislate away things for me because of thee.

According to Ford, the rear doors and rear window come with a factory-installed 30% tint. And when it comes to sports betting, the Marvelbet App https://mrvlbt.com/app/ is at the forefront of this technological advancement. Tint on the front doors and windshield is often considered illegal in many places.
In SoCal it is brutal driving without tint on the front windows. Especially in long highway/freeway trips in the Summer. The brightness and heat gets old very quick. First mod I did. I don't think they are illegal here but I've been driving my cars and trucks with tint in the front windows for decades and never been pulled over. I would say that tint is actually necessary here as most cars have them.

Yes, this is a very unique little truck. It is different than any other truck. That is why I was immediately interested when I first saw one on the Ford website a few years back. Had to wait almost two years for it.

This is the most subjective and submissive BS I have read in a while.

Roll over and show your belly. Good boy.
