My favorite model Ranchero was the 1st year 1957

that explains my thinking there was a full frame. I thought my memory was going down hill. Only Rancheros I ever owned were all based off the Torino, 72,73 and 74.

I stand corrected, I was thinking it was a full frame like the 61-63 F-100. It’s been several decades since I was under neath a Ranchero. Last time was a 1974 model

Good write up. The meaning of unibody has changed over the years. In the days of 61-63 F100 and the Rancheros and GM El Camino unibody meant the bed and cab were all one piece but the front end was bolted on and all was mounted on steel frame. To day unibody means body and frame are all one...

22 AWD eco maverick cactus gray had no name 23 hybrid carbonized gray The mav 24 hybrid HPR ole red no pictures at this time.

the ranchero and the F-100 were single piece body on steel frame not unibody. Unibody means body and frame are all in one. I wouldn’t trust the Mav to tow as much as a body on frame vehicle. I’ve learned from experience that the Mav has limitations. I was coming back from LR on I-40...

I don’t get off road that much , here are a few pictures of the roads to our farm. Drove up that ice covered hill in my wife’s 24 hybrid and drove up that big ole hill in my AWD mav.

Mine is just called Mav, wife’ s 24 HPR we started calling Old Red.

Better designed door pockets so I can keep stuff in them like an ice scraper. They are too shallow everything falls out every time I open or close door. Wife says she wants power passenger seat so she can snooze on long trips

I was brought up using an outhouse so I was okay with the back road. But wife said no way.

I think you can classify that area as really rural. Last year when my wife and I drove up to see the elk. We were in need of a restroom and it took us 45 minutes to find a public restroom. After driving around for 30 minutes we finally saw a deputy sheriff and flagged him down to ask where...

My 1st mav was cactus gray, love that color . Traded it at 40K miles for a hot pepper red hybrid. I but on a soft roll up cover, Before I did I filled those channels with clear silicone caulk. I let it set up for 2-3 days then trimmed flush with razor blade before installing cover.

I’ve got stock 18 on my two Mav’s. I’d like to swap them out but I’m wanting to go smaller. I like the 17 on the XLT taller sidewall tires means softer ride.

What about mpg, was there any change?

I’ve got a 23 and 24 lariat Maverick that has Navigation, but when I had my 22 Lariat Maverick it did not have Navigation. I started using google maps and then one day my iPhone switched me to Apple Maps. I think Apple Maps and google maps are much better than Ford Navigator and will only...

Let me make a suggestion. No matter what bed cover you order a little prep before installing really helps on water intrusion. I’ve had 3 Mavericks. The first I added a soft roll up it leaked horribly. 2nd was a used Maverick with only 8K miles on it and it already had a hard trifold...

I also traded my 22 eco for a hybrid. My 22 eco was an AWD lariat and traded for a New 24 hybrid lariat. 22 had 40K miles on it and was averaging 33mpg the 24 has 8K miles and is averaging 43.5mpg both rode about same and handle snow just about equally. With the slightly better supply I...

My dealer charges $130 for hybrid and $75 for ecoboost. Difference being that the hybrid requires full synthetic oil, which costs $12.50 a quart and the regular oil is $4.15.

Not the Maverick, it’s my iPhone when trying to view some members posts in MTC app.
