Sounds like the consensus is buy. I never signed paperwork canceling and there was never a deposit to refund, so I'll call the dealer and ask. Though I'm 95% sure they'll just keep it. Fair enough, they deserve to make $$ too. For those curious, it's a 2.0 Lariat and the price was around...

I ordered in August but cancelled in November after I got an Acura. That said, this week I received an email from Ford that my Maverick has been scheduled for production, and I got a VIN. I assume this means the dealer didn't cancel the order, and I'm now wondering if it's worth it to pick up...

People didn't place Bronco orders with Webasto. They placed them with Ford. If Ford outsourced some parts, it's still Ford's problem if whoever they outsourced to f*cks up. Not trying to play the blame game here. The cars will get built in the end, and things do happen. It's just that in...

You didn't miss any news - they're still trying to figure out how to build CVT transmissions in volume and in the meantime are mostly building trucks with 2.0 engines. Dealers are telling people who ordered hybrids to expect them built in November or later. Given Ford's struggles trying to...

We can argue dollar amounts all day and never agree. But you do make a very good point - if it was only about cost we'd all be driving 10-yr old civics & corollas, not waiting for out 2022 Mavericks to get built :cool:

We have different priorities it seems. I'm not expecting to keep the truck much past the warranty so not too concerned about the turbo, and I'd rather have it this year than the next. The actual money savings from the hybrid mpg turned out to be tiny after I did the math. Assuming 25mpg vs...

I see the switch as gaining AWD rather than losing mpg, and I think an AWD truck will resell better when the time comes. The $ savings from hybrid mpg is peanuts. My current car gets 19mpg, mostly highway driving. I fill up twice a month. So best case scenario with the hybrid, I save one gas...

Thanks everyone for reminding me it's up to me. But I was aware that it's up to me all along, and was merely asking for opinions to help me decide :) In the end, I ended up asking my dealer to change my order from hybrid to 2.0 AWD. It's only $3k more, and I do get AWD which makes more sense in...

Really, what the topic says. I have a Lariat Lux hybrid ordered, but I'm considering changing it to a Lariat 2.0 AWD Lux because waiting until January-February for it to be built, well, sucks. Any thoughts - is Ford still not scheduling any Lariat hybrids for building?

For those who don't see the huge rush: it's the resale price if your current car. By the time Ford gets around to building your Maverick, sometime in 2022, the incredibly high used car prices will have come down. I'm honestly considering just buying the SC now if I can find one. Yeah I'll pay...

Originally I was going to just write a check, but I'm leaning more & more towards leasing, for a few reasons: 1. Mid cycle refresh will probably have a proper screen instead of a little one with a hole near it, 2. New model kinks to work out, 3. GM might make a better truck if they do get...

It doesn't... unfortunately. It only has remote start where you can start the car from your house or whatever. But then when you get in you'd still have to take it out of your pocket and stick it in the ignition, 'That 70s show' style, to go anywhere. It's a small thing, but having had a car...

I wish there was an option to delete Sync 3 on the Lariat and opt for the touchscreen instead. I honestly don't need anything other than Carplay and radio. In fact, I don't want anything else. More features I don't use means more to go wrong. Downgrading to XLT isn't an option, the extra few...

You're right, you're the only one who thinks this.

[Edit: deleting]

A proper 12" screen with wireless AA/Carplay.

Just to put that mpg number into context: I have a V6 Buick Lacrosse. Right after an oil change, on brand new tires, on a long highway trip, I have pictures showing it did 33mpg over around 100 miles. Average mpg over the ~30k miles I've owned it? 18. Seriously... 18.

Definitely ask around, and don't believe any dealer that says everyone is marking up prices. I called my local dealer and they were marking up by $1,000 over MSRP. Said everyone was. So I called the next closest dealer (6 miles from me) and they were doing MSRP, no markup. In the end I ordered...

I'm putting in an order today for a Lariat with the 360 and Luxury packages, price is $28,926... so yeah, definitely possible
