I've had my 2024 Maverick Hybrid for a wopping 15 days now. Just received this letter from my dealer:

----------------------------------------
We often receive requests for pre-owned vehicle models similar to yours. According to our records, it appears you have approximately 0 payments remaining on your 2024 Ford Maverick and are paying approximately $0.

Being able to acquire vehicles that we have either sold, serviced or both that we can add to our Pre-Owned inventory is the best possible scenario. In a search of our customer records I identified your car as a perfect match for us. As compensation to you, if we could upgrade you to a newer Ford Maverick keeping your payments about the same, would you consider letting us purchase your car?

----------------------------------------

Pretty much LMAO! Could be just an auto generated form letter. But I'm wanting to call that salesman (not mine), and just exactly what 'newer' Maverick they have to offer?

Computerized marketing programs aren't that smart yet. Pretty soon, an AI impersonating our salespeople will chat us up asking how our family is doing by name. We'll be hard pressed to tell real from not real, real soon now.

Actually, I guess we'll be able to tell. Anything nice is coming from the AI.

I got a letter earlier this year from my dealer, they had someone looking for a truck exactly like mine and they’d give me a $ 1,000 more then trade offer. I just laughed it off.

$5000 over and they can have mine. I would drive it to the dealer.

If their records show you are paying 0 and have zero payments left then tell them you are very interested in about the same payments.

LOL, Yeah, I paid cash. But with over $3,500 taxes & fees, no way I could come out ahead. But considering calling to see what they were thinking.

Maybe you could get one with a hitch or something else desired and get $5k more than you paid as trade in?

Just ask them who won the world series or superbowl.

It's a marketing tool. Nothing more.
