So what are the thoughts on Round 2 with Maverick's closest competitor, the Santa Cruz, now that both are seeing a significant refresh? For those that haven't seen the Santa Cruz changes, here's a Limited: I think they did well on the interior update, but not sure I like the new grill or...

Its unbelievable to me that this is an affordable base level interior, and as much "wow" factor as that gives, the one and only powertrain has to be the most pathetic offering ever being not only the least powerful but also the least efficient in class, oof! Looks like GM might have spent too...

Additional info: https://www.motor1.com/news/729265/toyota-gr-corolla-warranty-claims-weird-reasons/ Cliffs Notes: This is the 2nd Toyota Corolla GR that has had an engine failure recently, with warranty denied, because the owner drove 85mph. The owner captured it all on dashcam which shows...

Updates include new wheels, beefier grill, and new front bumper (possibly also rear bumper), and most significant change is the new interior to match other Hyundai products with a single long swooping gauge cluster/infotainment screen and their new column shifter. Rumor is no powertrain...

Consumer Reports April 2024 edition: Listed in good (but not best, probably not enough years recorded yet) used vehicle list Rated "above average" for '22 and '23 MYs ("body hardware" was the only ding) On their test track, the hybrid did 14mpg better than the turbo '

Seems like the Escape doesn't get all that much attention, any thoughts on it? Escape Hybrid ST-Line kinda blacked out with the technology package is actually $2K less than a Maverick at least when I compared a build to a Lariat blackout package hybrid. Granted it doesn't have pickup...

My only issue is that the features aren't great for a >$50K vehicle. A $50K new '24 Santa Fe would be pretty loaded up, and has enough power and doesn't really need to go rock crawling.

Came to check if there was any news of any Maverick changes for 2024, seems like not yet, but noticed no one had mentioned the new Chevy Trax / Buick Envista. Like Ford was replacing small hatchbacks and sedans with an efficient affordable pickup, it seems GM is following suit in similar style...

Wanted a Maverick, but missed my chance to get one, and can't wait any longer as our truck was totalled by an uninsured reckless driver. Ordered a 2023 Dodge Hornet (basically a cheapened Alfa Romeo Tonale with more horsepower and a whopping 300ftlbs of torque)! Taking delivery in December...

Ford Maverick Hybrid Outstanding Fuel Economy for a Truck WE WERE IMPRESSED with the Maverick when we tested the turbo version earlier this year. The Bronco Sportbased pickup is relatively inexpensive and delivers a more refi ned ride than traditional trucks, making it a pleasant daily driver...

So I've gotten to drive a borrowed '22 Nissan Frontier SV 4x2 for two days now, , and was so excited because this was a contender as a "upgrade" to my Ram especially since Mavericks are unicorns on dealer lots, and all I can say is that if at all possible try-before-u-buy! 🤢 Granted, all I have...

What are being dubbed as "pandemic cars" are seeing as an industry the worst overall quality/reliability in JD Powers 36 years of running the numbers. So if you were ever likely to get a lemon or just have a few niggles not quite worked out by the factory, 2022 was unfortunately peak fail for...

Not a second license plate, but like one of those decorative plates you can get online (American flag, No Touch Snek, etc) that some people put on the front of their vehicle in states that don't require front plates (or that just don't care)? That way it'd look something like this for example...

Appears to be an identical third brake light on both the Mav and F150. You really also appreciate how low the roofline is of the Maverick when you see it next to its big brother: If so, that means any of the aftermarket F150 LED third brake lights may be a plug and play swap.

A high production quality but not overly flattering review of the Maverick and Santa Cruz, that also mentions the MaverickTruckClub community BTW: 00:00 - 1:21 Truck, Ute, or something else 1:21 - 7:37 Styling, Interior, & Usability 7:37 - 12:15 Power & Performance 12:15 - 16:26 Ride &...

Anyone know how difficult it is to crack open the headlights on the Maverick? Reason I ask is it seems like you could install something universal like these flexible switchbacks in that location. Or failing that, perhaps they can go outside and above it as intended, or just in the center of...
