I just saw a 25 maverick in Greer Az. I looked inside and saw the full screen just to make doubly sure. I liked it. My career was in telecom engineering. I remember when we were deploying some of the 1st auto attendants. "Everyone" hated them and said they would never be accepted by the public. Well, almost every company, small or large has one. Same here. Just my opinion
Spoiler alert, I work in telecom and specifically on automated voice attendants. People still hate them. (n)

Well, if you work in telecom you must be newer to the industry because until we were asked to keep customers in a dead loop, they were pretty much accepted, especially when everyone figured out they only needed to press zero to get to a live person. Once that option was removed, you're correct. This is coming from one who has been building AAs and call centers for over 30 years. But I digress since this isn't a telecom forum

I'm about 30 years in myself. People may have accepted them, but there is still a lot of hate for them.

Just buy some touch up paint and after you follow the vertical line of the headlights, paint everything on the light that dips below.

I'm glad I have a 2022 Ford Maverick. I don't know what Ford was thinking do this to the front end of the 2025. I have been a Ford man all my life, but this could push me in a different direction. I will have to see what the future brings in small pickups.

Sorry if someone has already mentioned this, but wonder what happened to these darker/transparent bumpers that Ford seemed to be testing sometime earlier this year? What's the chances someone manufactures aftermarket versions to put on the colored ones?

How about that?!?! That's a great idea!! You could also put the hood deflector on and have black above & below the grille. I like the new look, but I think the deflector looks better.

My brother once mentioned most of his hood damage was right at the edge where the deflector sits (if you put one on). It's more vertical & takes more direct hits from road debris. That vertical, painted surface below the grille is REALLY gonna take some road debris damage. A deflector/shield would save it. I like it!!

I don't think it's a big deal. I don't care for it but I would customize it in short order.

Personally hate the 25s front end, don't even know how they thought that looked good in any way. The current model looks so much better, changing it now was a terrible idea lol. If the previous years front end was compatible with the 25s I'd just swap everything lolz XD.
