  1. Ford surface care mandatory?

    I can't tell you how much I like & want the truck I ordered, BUT I will walk out on dealer B.S. If Ford allows this crap they can forget their order & hope plans. I'll find a older Chevy truck & put a ls in it with updated suspension, brakes & be thousands ahead. Low mileage ls can be bought...
  2. What oil brand will you be using ?

    My dealer uses Motorcraft semi synthetic on na engines, turbos need full syn
  3. Any experience a rattling speaker issue in their Mavrick?

    That's called distortion. Turn the low quality speaker down.
  4. Rivian

    I won't even pay the price of a semi basic F150 or Silverado. Wages have not kept up with increases. I bought my first new truck in 1973. $3200. I made $5.50 per hour. 1/3 of a year's pay. That same company paid $30 but has beat the worker down to $20 or $40k per year. If your lucky enough to...
  5. CANADA DAI Cosmos rims and winter tires

    I live atop of a hill & have been using winter tires on my 17 escape since new. 2 wd & eats through 8" of snow like nothing.
  6. Reason why Hybrid Maverick interest so high? [WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    It's the first hybrid priced under It's ice counterpart. Hybrids would be everywhere if they didn't price them so high.
  7. Will The MSRP Change?

    Most of the overwhelming success of the Maverick is fair price. If they hike the price people will lose enthusiasm quickly. I'm 66 & have never dreamed I'd be willing to wait 6-8 months & pay msrp. I currently feel the hybrid version is worth the price. Raise it & I'm out.
  8. Gasoline -v- Electric vehicles... an article - YOU Make the choice!

    I struggle to understand except for long distance drives. With 250-300 mile range, why would I need to deadhead to find a commercial charger? Secondly, this article doesn't calculate no oil changes no repairs for water pumps fuel pumps etc. Common sense tells me for a commuter car ev clearly is...
  9. Video: 2022 Ford Maverick Assembly & Production Line @ Factory – Stamping, Paint, Final Assembly 👷🏼‍♂️

    Sometimes the best way to stop over immigration is to improve life in the mother country. They do now but 25 years ago none gm/ ford / Chrysler had 5-6 hundred thousand
  10. Video: 2022 Ford Maverick Assembly & Production Line @ Factory – Stamping, Paint, Final Assembly 👷🏼‍♂️

    Originally US companies claimed outsourcing due to pensions. Hyundai Honda etc hasn't been here long enough to have retirees. Since most pension plans have been stripped & lower wages 401k was the new deal. I suppose they now outsource to avoid worker compensation, us labor laws etc. Not nice...
  11. Video: 2022 Ford Maverick Assembly & Production Line @ Factory – Stamping, Paint, Final Assembly 👷🏼‍♂️

    Watching assemblers doesn't look labor intensive, until you do it. These folks can assemblers blindfolded due to repetitive jobs. It actually beats you into the grou d. Line is moving along faster than you think. One of my jobs was steering column. Remove key unhook column shoot 6 bolts connect...
  12. Maverick hybrids are close to SOLD OUT

    At the moment I was offered about $500 less than a selling offer. The taxes here are based on what's left after trade so it would cost me an extra $800 if I sold & paid cash. I want a decent trade to save on sales tax.
  13. Maverick hybrids are close to SOLD OUT

    Scares me , dealer will offer diddly squat on trade
  14. Website now showing "Limited Availability" for all Maverick trims

    Very happy for Ford. I sure hope this Hugh success doesn't lead to a price increase.
  15. Maverick hybrids are close to SOLD OUT

    I think any manufacturer can sell out on hybrids if they are priced right. I could never justify $10k extra to get a hybrid. The Maverick hit the right price point. If Ford price Jack's I'm out.
  16. 🚨My Hybrid Maverick window sticker with MPG!! 37 combined / 42 city / 33 highway

    Woo Hoo the hybrid ship can weigh anchor & cast off to sea.
  17. Common problems - Are you concerned?

    GM had integrated exhaust manifold on 6 cylinder engines. They notoriously cracked, broke off from vibration. Only repair was complete head replacement. Hopefully this doesn't apply here.
  18. DFW Hybrids Scheduled

    I ordered my hybrid on 9/4 at a small town dealer. Nice people that has great prices on service, but will probably cause my build to be the last in line.
