Very much agreed. I also don't accept the interior paint quality, nor do I find the thin exterior paint acceptable. "It's a cheap truck NDL" My current vehicle is a last generation Ranger: I could take a knife to the door panels if I wanted to, and while the plastic would scratch, the molded...

What's interesting in this case, is no one commented on the structure of the vehicle; I am not faulting anyone - I certainly don't have the answer - but is this something that can be fixed without the vehicle's structure being significantly compromised? I don't know... Point two is that if the...

I would assume that the Ranger will hold up better: it's 2.3 engine is bulked up for truck duty, and the Ranger has a high strength frame. The lower priced Maverick's are an incredible value, but - hybrid aside - that value diminishes as these vehicles are loaded and dealer market adjustment...

I don't mean this in a condescending way, but do you realize the mass of a tractor trailer, and the weight that's behind that? The Maverick did extraordinarily well.

I wonder if an alarm with a motion detector might make sense. In the 80's, when approaching some cars, some alarms would announce their presence on the vehicle - e.g. "step away from the vehicle."

I'm kinda surprised at how people are jumping on the original poster; he did laud the Maverick for her good qualities. It might well be that he got a truck built on an off day, when they were looking to rush them out. The other thing is that we don't know how much he paid for the truck. Why I...

1) I am glad that no one was hurt. 2) While the driver of the Jeep was extremely clueless, this could've been avoided. 3) The main reason for my posting is this - to the exclusion of the above comments - no one else mentioned how well the Maverick took the hit. I have seen several photos of...

I don't wanna get into a pissing match, but that list is interesting. Then again, all I can offer up is anecdotal observations, so...

Yeah, I don't agree with the FL comment - especially the northern part of the State.

That was my concern, by far. I wonder how the FX4 springs are set up, as compared with a base model.

Great points, thank you. If I buy a Maverick I might well leave it alone after all.

Great points

That's exactly what I have been seeing

Appreciate your reply, and what you wrote makes sense. I do have to admit, lifted or not, the truck is extremely impressive in person. The fit and finish were excellent too. Appreciate the reply; there's a rumor that Eibach is working on a solution. I would hope that Ford would have...

I very much appreciate your reply, and you perfectly said what was on my mind.

Appreciate the reply, and that's my concern.

Appreciate the reply

How is it ironic? People are free to disagree with me; I have no issues with anyone disagreeing with me. But I don't wanna get into a multipage pissing match with: "The Maverick is perfect for ME" "If you want a higher truck get the Ranger" "They designed the Maverick for fuel economy, so...

I don't want to get into a pissing match with anyone: everyone has their own likes and dislikes, and that's fine. Not everyone will agree with what I am about to write, and that's fine too. My issue is with today's society, is that people are not entitled to have their own opinion: people...

Not to sound or come off like a jerk, the issue is that they likely had supply issues sourcing the insulation, so they let some trucks out without it. As for "it's a 20k truck," that's right: it is a cheap truck. That cost a minimum of 21.5k when shipping costs are factored in. The truck...
