I switched my build from cactus grey to carbonized grey. They both look nice but I prefer a metallic paint over a non metallic and I think the black trim(bumper top of bed ect) stands out too much on the cactus grey. Also I plan to buy aftermarket wheels and I was having a hard time thinking of...
I am not sure how the selection process works but maybe they are trying to get a few vehicles out to each dealer? Maybe the person who ordered it went to a dealer who has had zero maverick sales at this point hence the extremely fast scheduling?
Its a reddit thread btw
Two small jet skis, a small trailer with two ATVs and also a small 1800lb tear drop camper.
What is weird is the tow capacity of the US hybrid Rav4 is 1,750lbs but the European one is over 3,600lbs no mechanical changes whatsoever. Possible difference is due to J2807 towing standards in the US...
Its a 21.5K truck. Its the cheapest vehicle ford sells.... Its the cheapest hybrid for sale in the US. Its the cheapest truck for sale in the US. Its only a few grand over the actual cheapest car for sale in the US.
How do you even option an XL to 28K?
If you optioned 2.0l with awd and tow...
I think you can unlock all models or even remote start them on the Fordpass app
Its also free for the unlock/lock/remote start and locate vehicle functions. You can add a wifi hotspot to the vehicle for 20 bucks a month...
They will have plenty of power for normal driving conditions including towing. These will not be sports cars but you wont ever feel like you will need more power. Keep in mind they also weigh around 3600lbs which is 1,000+ lbs less than most other 4 door trucks today.
Nice lots of good photos. I still have not seen any photos of how close the rear shock is to the rear tire/wheel. It appears there is not much room. This will impact what size of tires or wheels can be ran on the truck
Cell phone cameras have lots of digital processing. So the colour accuracy of the image can vary a lot depending on the brand. A51 having seen it multiple times in person looks a bit darker than any of the photos I have seen especially in direct sunlight. Its also more blue looking than grey...
I would order the eruption green if I had the option. I am honestly surprised they are not offering a green option and a "green" vehicle like the hybrid maverick. A nice dark green is the colour I would want
So 30% means around 30k orders if the 100k reservations is right. But we also have a lot of orders that are not done with a reservation. I would guess we have around 40-50k mavericks already ordered. That is right around 2 months worth of full capacity at the Hermosillo Ford plant
My guess is since Ford is not selling cars really anymore they need to fill the gap the hybrid Ford fusion left. We are going to see a lot more electric vehicles on the road in the next 5-10 years. If Ford can get people into one if their vehicles now they will be much more likely to purchase an...
CAFE standards. They need to sell more high mpg vehicles. This also pulls people off of low mpg large trucks raising the overall average.
Ford is making very little if any on the maverick. Standardized components across the platform lowers cost as well. I also think ford is trying to get some...
Nice I am also on the fence of the colour choice between cactus grey and carbonized grey.
When the builds are pulled for schedule do we have the option at that time to change anything?
This has to do with how the energy is stored and then used. The gas engine can provide electric power a the same time it helps drives the wheels. I can also decoupler from the drive wheels and use full gas engine power to drive the generator to make more electric power. This is what happens at...
This depends on the price of fuel in the coming years. Also depends on how reliable the ecoboost engine and transmission are at 100k+ miles.
I personally think Oxford white FWD ecoboost mavericks will have the highest depreciation. That being said we still have a major shortage of production of...
Peak torque is a useless measurement in terms of engine performance. If torque is what "wins races" or allows a vehicle to tow better than my impact would be one of the best engines ever made.
Sustained wheel torque overtime is what matters. This is also called horsepower which is essentially a...
Probably will sell my 2003 Mercedes S600 that I daily drive. Will be weird going from a twin turbo V12 large sedan to a small hybrid pickup truck daily driver. I also have two corvettes and a toyota supra but not looking to sell those. This will be my first Ford vehicle.
