You're definitely not alone. I'm still waiting to receive mine, but ever since I was a kid I've had a fascination with trucks and tools. My dad is in construction, and I grew up in the back seat of his truck (a blue Ram 2500) it feels like. I've always wanted a truck of my own. And I'm going to...
Something I would really be interested in is if Plugout Power supported the Maverick. They sell an inverter system you hook up to a Prius, or other hybrid car, and it allows you to use it as either a 3 or 5 kilowatt generator. That would be huge if you need to operate tools, or power your home...
I really hope Ford decides to use something like an e-axle for the rear end on a future AWD hybrid Maverick. Rather than having to fit a drive shaft and other components to transfer power from the front end to the rear, you can just use electric motors and save a lot of engineering and component...
What I had heard is that demand for a lot of stuff is through the roof. Some things like semiconductors are in an actual, manufacturing constrained shortage. But part of the problem is that everyone is buying a lot of things right now, more than ever before and factories and ports can't keep up...
Eyyyyy! I got the email for the free FITS accessory kit and my build date is scheduled for December 13th too!!!! I ordered back in early July, and I'll admit I was starting to look at other options (mostly old compact and mid sized trucks like Mazda B series, a Mitsubishi Mighty Max I found...
Honestly I think by October or November, unless I happen to really want one. But we've barely gotten any footage of them driving, particularly offroad. If not the Maverick I'm either looking at a 2 door Bronco if I can afford one, a Mini Countryman S with ALL4, or some model of Land Rover...
Gosh this is frustrating. I've had radio silence since July, I ordered a hybrid XLT. I got the order form and everything and signed off on the build but I still haven't been scheduled and I ordered in June. My reasoning for ordering was that I needed a vehicle now, and the market is too...
The one thing that disappoints me is that the marine vinyl interior is a trim-limited option on the Bronco. I really wish they'd done seats like that for the Maverick, so odds are I'll be looking for neoprene seat covers in the future. At least to me it's not worth spending the money to tear out...
Here's a quick and rough mockup of what a two tone wrap on the alto blue Maverick would look like, albeit without pinstriping. I feel like that might break up the color more (this feels too Cadillacy though I like the pepper white). It'd also work with some other shades (I like 3M's ice blue)...
