The truck may or may not be there…depending on cosmic forces real or imagined

Never seen that kind of transaction. Usually you get the sales agreement and the MSO (“title“ from manufacturer) and then take those documents to the state DME and pay tax and get title issued from the state of registration.

I’ve had hotspots on last 2 vehicles and not used them for 1 second. I guess it might be valuable to use a tablet or laptop but you can just tether to your phone.

I am a "9" at last check. Lariat with both lux+360 constraints...

I purchased a Santa Cruz SEL Premium. Tubo 2.5 liter has immediate push and the DCT transmission is very smooth shifting (also has paddle shifters). Only 40 miles in so little in the way of long term review. I sold a Canyon crew all-terrain with 3.6 V6. I will say that the smoothness and...

I got the email this pm. I just competed a purchase on a Santa Cruz yesterday afternoon. A bit more $ but its in my garage...(and dealers have them and are selling them).

Always nice to see individual mods. I will say that without a airbox you will entrain warm air (from engine compartment) and reduce any “cold air intake” potential.

Knuckle bolts are “spliced”? Did you mean to say “splined”? (Otherwise, I’m confused).

This is a bit of a tricky situation...(at least I don’t have a ready opinion based on experience). As noted by several, the ownership had not transferred, so you were driving their vehicle and were involved in “not at fault” accident. So the first point should be cut and dried: the damage...

Getting or "the list" for ordering is done all the time for limited availability cars. Porsche dealers usually always have a list for the uber-unobtainium cars like GT4, etc. I guess the list in this case gets one in the front of the ordering line for 2023 Maverick. Unfortunately we have seen...

I am not sure, but there maybe a bit of confusion. My post was referring to tax credit (for the selling price of a private sale) against the tax charged when buying the new vehicle (similar to that credit most states give when you trade a vehicle for a new car). Individual states are...

Just want to point out many states give the same sales tax credit whether you trade a vehicle or sell it privately. Usually the credit sunsets in a period of time (I.e. 6months in my experience), so don’t sell too early before registering a new vehicle (which in the case of an ordered Maverick...

Yeah, the “moon” v “sun” roof is sort of a misunderstood term. AFAIK the term sunroof referred to the sliding metal panel (the last one I had was a new 1984 Toyota Corolla GTS). The moonroof terminology was used for the glass panel. (but I could have dreamed the differentiation…). As I have...

Correction (poor memory) January 31: 200/376; June 2: 151 (unknown denominator). Order ultimately submitted 17 January (originally sent to Granger 4 January but some back and forth due to equipment left off order and no sense of urgency on my part-and apparently on FOMOCO as well:(

At end of January I was 200/361. Currently (2days ago) I’m 151.

The concept that "rich" people (I'm not sure of what that actually means) will willingly pay higher prices is likely perception, not reality. Many of that demographic have achieved their financial independence due to being hardworking and frugal. Paying an inflated price for a economy...

I think it is quite likely one will have more than adequate time to mull over all the permutations of payment for their Maverick. It may be possible to buy discounted savings bonds today and even with their rather lengthy maturity pay with those proceeds… 🤣🤣🤣

Resistance (air) is a function of the (drag coefficent*fluid density (air)*frontal surface area/2) *square of the velocity. So it requires more force (power) to push a rectangular box faster, hence lower mileage.

It appears that we customers are left with endless speculation as to how this scenario might play. FOMOCO has said all 2022 orders are expected to be filled. Yet some dealers with 150-200 orders without assigned VIN to date are getting “allocations” in the single digits in the upcoming month...

I am located in SW MO and am patiently awaiting my ordered Lariat. I randomly visited the website of a local Ford dealership and they have 7 Mavericks of various flavors listed-all with a $5K “market adjustment“. If you look at the window stickers they are all labeled “special order” in the...
