  1. Fulfilling 2022 orders

    2024? Hmmm ... You mean that I might get an email that a Rivian R1T is ready for me before my MY22 Maverick? o_O I never seriously imagined that being a possibility! pat----
  2. Fulfilling 2022 orders

    Yeah, I was going to question DJF's comment too ... I know Tim said he believed unfulfilled and uncancelled MY22's would be rolled over to MY23 and many, many people on here, Reddit and Facebook all expect the rollovers. But ... can anyone point to anything official from Ford that unfulfilled...
  3. Possible Toyota competition?

    A Ridgeline of the current size would be acceptable to me if it were a hybrid capable of getting in the upper 30MPG range. 40MPG would be awesome, but it's a bigger and heavier vehicle, so ... <shrug> pat----
  4. Ford will sell & deliver Mavericks without chips controlling non-safety critical features

    Oh, I agree whole heartedly. But as others have posited, I really suspect that while everyone is using the term "missing chips", the real issue is missing MODULES (which in turn are missing the actual chips). So once the chips are available, the vendor adds them to the modules and sends the...
  5. Ford will sell & deliver Mavericks without chips controlling non-safety critical features

    OMG! Tim's cornered the market on automotive chips!?!? 😮 🤣😂🤣😂 pat----
  6. Ford will sell & deliver Mavericks without chips controlling non-safety critical features

    OMG! Please!! NO!!!! Back in mid 1980s, the Atari, Amiga, and other home computers made extensive use of sockets (not just for CPUs, but for memory chips and many other ones as well) due to "early" IC failure rates. heck, the tech support manuals (intended for actual repair shops back then)...
  7. Ford will sell & deliver Mavericks without chips controlling non-safety critical features

    One correction I'd make is ... "all in the name of company shareholders making a dollar more here and there." It may seem a minor nit, but a large percentage of stocks are held by investment companies for retirement plans (pension plans, IRAs, 401k's, etc etc etc). Yes, the company and the...
  8. Get Wireless Android Auto w/ Motorola MA1 USB Dongle -- reviews

    Yep. I ordered in Feb 5 for March 25 delivery ... and had it in my hands on Feb 16th. Several others reported the same accelerated deliveries as well. (y) pat----
  9. 2023 Maverick intel. / speculation / spy photos (repository)

    Look up "Disney Go Away Green". ;) pat----
  10. How many Mavericks have you seen?

    I saw my dealer's demo unit in December (white XLT EB) when I took it for a test drive. And just today I saw my first "out in the wild" Maverick at my pup's oncologist. An Area 51 XLT Hybrid from MA. She said they ordered it last June or July and received it 3 weeks ago. She said they are...
  11. How long can they make MY22 before switching to MY23 in October?

    @Administrator , thank you for moving this thread. I debated back and forth as to which section to post it in. I had a 50-50 chance. This is why I don't gamble. 🤪 pat----
  12. How long can they make MY22 before switching to MY23 in October?

    Is there anyone on here with auto manufacturing knowledge who might be able to provide an estimate as to how late they may continue production of the MY22 vehicles before the switch over to the MY23? For instance, if the MY23's are scheduled to start production in mid October, can they produce...
  13. Any late October order with build date, hybrid only?

    Same here for me this morning ... about an 8-10 minute wait before a very polite young lady answered and looked up my order. She says everything is good, my order is confirmed and they are just waiting for the parts to build my vehicle. Interestingly she didn't ask for either my order number...
  14. Any late October order with build date, hybrid only?

    A question if I may, I thought I had read previously that to get to the Maverick line you call 800-334-4375 and select menu option 1 followed by menu option 4. I called for the first time Friday afternoon and got a Voice menu instead which asked me to "say in a few words, why [I was] calling?"...
  15. Any late October order with build date, hybrid only?

    10/25 and still waiting. I'm not too upset yet, my dealer had given me an estimate of late March thru mid May as an estimate before I placed my order. Admittedly that's obviously not going to happen since I haven't received a VIN yet and people just getting Build notices are getting dates in...
  16. Raising the price of Mavericks again?

    Not sure if anyone else follows any of the Rivian FB pages (and I assume it's all over their various forum sites as well) . Apparently they just announced significant option changes and significant accompanying price increases of up $15,000 to $25,000 for any orders not yet built ... people...
  17. Any actual competition (even rumored) to the Maverick?

    @Mymaverick2021, As a Subaru driver for the past two decades, that's an intriguing idea. @gaken A hybrid (or full EV) version of the Tacoma would fit in my garage and Toyota definitely has a solid Hybrid background. I could be tempted by one of those. pat----
  18. Any actual competition (even rumored) to the Maverick?

    If I can get more amenities and more comforts, I'm willing to pay for them. That doesn't mean I want to pay more now and then continue to pay more. Simply ignoring or writing off future fuel costs doesn't make any sense ... if I could afford it, I'd love a full EV. But the cheapest one that...
  19. Any actual competition (even rumored) to the Maverick?

    Hmmm ... I wonder if that would finally get my remaining local friends to drive more often rather than expecting me to do so all the time. :ROFLMAO: pat----
