  1. Any idea why people are trading in their new Mavericks?

    I’ve seen a lot of market adjustments negotiated down to hundreds from thousands from posters on this site. Dealers goose them up by several thousand and maybe only sell one or two that way if any at all. Vehicle sits a while and they need to turn it to earn more allocation. So the buyer...
  2. Any idea why people are trading in their new Mavericks?

    Yep, a lot of folks are buying more vehicles than they need, expecting to flip them for more money later but thatā€˜s a super dangerous game. I did it for a while and made some good money but stopped while I was ahead. Some folks will get hurt later this year when used car prices drop back down...
  3. šŸ“ˆ Our 2022 Maverick Order Stats / Take Rates From 4,000+ Submissions

    Is it my old eyes, or was that a reversal, where now a majority of people opted out of the luxury package in the XLT ~63%?
  4. Thinking of dropping CP360 CoPilot

    Definitely more cost to repair/replace and a couple of hundred to recalibrate after windshield replaceme too. We have it on my wifes bronco sport and love it. Wheel vibrates if you go outside of your lane. Does it too if you don’t signal and change lanes. Do it enough and it will tell you to...
  5. Which do you think will have less problems/ better longevity the hybrid or eco boost?

    Probably won’t get much for either after 8 years. This is still the replacement for the lower end of Ford’s economy segment. Ford gets props for making it fun but eventually depreciation always wins.
  6. The only mistake that Ford made on the Maverick is -

    Yep totally agree. Except I was thinking horse sh#t. Guess OP hasn’t heard of owning a home, installing electrical charging in the garage of said home, or installing solar panels on said home, taking advantage of tax breaks for solar panel installation, etc.
  7. Dumbest review of the day from Motorious.com

    Yep, thoroughly uninformed and nothing to back up interest in the Maverick but sales numbers, which have lagged orders since the start of production. Probably written by someone who cancelled their order and couldn’t wait, lol
  8. Got contacted by Ford Marketing

    Hoping the best for your order and that it gets built soon but the response sounds more like a boiler plate, non-answer, answer. It may get scheduled based on the number of months you’ve waited though.
  9. $3,000 OFF - DEAL CLOSED - Fight OFF the Price Increase with Granger Ford

    Apparently, you didn’t care enough to follow any sort of order. I emailed you 45 minutes after the post. If you don’t care, that’s fine. It’s a hard pass. Best of luck gaming the Ford allocation system.
  10. $3,000 OFF - DEAL CLOSED - Fight OFF the Price Increase with Granger Ford

    Yeah I sent them an email 45 minutes after their post. Obviously, working them in reverse order. Even did two phone calls.
  11. I'm in a dilemma I need everyones opinion

    Also used vehicle prices are set to drop next year overall, according to a report from KPMG. While I do believe the Maverick will sell well, secondary markets react in advance of new vehicle production meeting demand. It’s more of a leading, not a lagging indicator if that makes sense. I...
  12. Charlotte NC area

    Oh yes, very hot and humid in summer. We were more on the SC side though, Fort Mill. I do miss the people, restaurants, having everything I needed downtown, and all service oriented. Those were the best doctors, dentists, optometrists, I can recall having. Very professional. It’s funny how...
  13. Charlotte NC area

    Weather is very nice if you like a warm climate and mild winters. We grew banana trees, basjoo and they fruited. Restaurants are phenomenal and so are the people. Many have banking backgrounds, which brings in folks from all over, great melting pot. The only thing that sucks is the traffic...
  14. Light at the end of the tunnel for Automobile Supply and Demand

    Nothing involving people is ever simple. That being said, new vehicle production meeting demand will impact used vehicle prices whenever that happens, 2022-2023. Consumers will simply choose new over used if everything else remains the same, especially price. As for market adjustments, we’ve...
  15. Light at the end of the tunnel for Automobile Supply and Demand

    Interesting read, supply/demand for new vehicles are expected to reach equilibrium by October 2022. Hoping that new vehicles, like the maverick are able to get caught up next year. https://jalopnik.com/used-car-values-are-poised-for-a-big-drop-1848251627
  16. BEWARE OF DEALER MARK UP

    Definitely a wear your brown pants day for sure. I would be surprised if California wasn’t already aware/working cases. The only thing saving the dealerships is probably time and bureaucracy.
  17. BEWARE OF DEALER MARK UP

    Not a lawyer but take a gander at California Civil Code 1770. If charged California may create misdemeanor criminal charges in certain situations.
  18. BEWARE OF DEALER MARK UP

    Again not a licensed attorney but the penalties may be quite severe for the dealership and maybe even Ford if the case were successful: Section 753 prohibits false advertising. Under Section 756.1, the Attorney General or a district attorney can bring an action upon knowing about a...
