GM guy Looking TO BUY A NEW MAVERICK

[Sonjaab]

Hey all,
I am looking for a new truck. Always something to move. Had several GM 2500s with snowplow, Now I have a 03 s-10 4x4 x cab 200k and sick of foolin with it. Nothing close in price and looking at a 14 awd base in black $29k. Gotta bring my 2 trades for price. Maybe make a deal! MOST dealers nearby have the loaded xlt $35k. So gonna meet tomorrow..................

XL' s are a little bit constrained, but people are getting them. I recommend getting the 360 package for $650 as it gives the basic safety pack plus a full (but not quite same size tire) spare and power side mirrors. A good value that enhances an XL. The safety part might even give you a lower insurance premium.

Have you read this board thoroughly? Proceed with caution.

Yea but a base truck hard to find. Only option I wanted was the $160? trailer hitch. Dealers have plenty $35k mavericks in stock.

Are you willing to order and wait? I got an XL with $100 hitch. Had to wait 7 months though.

Some dealers around here in PA have XL Eco, usually AWD though.

I'd echo that, the 360 package is well worth the $650.

If it's to replace your S10, than I would think that the Maverick is a good choice. I have nothing but good things to say about ours. It sounds like price is your driving factor so new trucks are going to be few and far between at that budget. Even used F150's can get pricey. Good luck

Do your homework on the Granger warranty and see if they will match.

I had a 2003 s10 too, short cab RWD, and replaced it with a 23 hybrid XLT lux last year after 19 months of waiting. Couldn't be happier with it, almost identical size but better everything else

So, did you have a question?

So I think with your two trade-ins, the maverick will be very affordable. I think the lariat with all the bells and whistles is the best way to go. I like the one I have I think because of all the bells and whistles it makes it that much more enjoyable to drive. Do not pay over MSRP and definitely check out Granger if you’re thinking about an extended warranty and don’t be afraid to walk away. also, check Edmonds and Kelley blue book. for your trade-in. make sure you get what they say. Good luck again. Don’t be afraid to walk away.

Went from a 2005 GMC AWD Conversion Van with 250,000 miles which we had for 16 years!!
to a 2024 Maverick Hybrid XLT with all options
Love it for MPG!! and its size running around.

i bought one of the fully loaded and then some XLTs. absolutely the most fun vehicle i have ever owned. dont miss my ranger one bit. dont get me wrong. it was a good truck, but this one is the vehicle i have been wanting for years. it is perfect!

If you order one, you'll get exactly what you want. And if the dealer is an honest one, you can get it for MSRP. Research dealers before doing anything.

If you want a truck with not much fancy crap on it, just order an XL with CP360 and maybe a hitch receiver, if needed. Go to the Ford site and do a tentative build. There's no obligation to do that. Put in the ZIP for the dealer you want to use.
