It goes faster if you put an aero kit on and lower it by a foot.

…or a bicycle

Buy a Prius

For that matter, gone are the days of the handbrake!

Adding weight to the rear will not help it avoid swinging out. Yes, it will add more force to the rear tires on the road, but it also adds proportional force sideways when you turn, canceling out the advantage.

When my Lariat gets here, I’m tempted to immediately change the tires and rims to something I like more. If any of y’all know of someone who wants a brand new set of Maverick 18-inch wheels and tires for a good deal, let me know. :)

Thanks for the heads up! I just ordered that and an oil catch can. :)

It’s built! Delivery scheduled for 12/21. :)

My original build schedule was 10/25. That got moved to 11/8. And that got moved to 11/22. This is stating to look like a drinking game. :)

Short answer: The fuel economy will be nearly identical with of without the tow package. Get it. :) Long answer: There are two differences with the tow package that will affect MPG: weight and drive ratio. The bigger radiator (more fluid too) and additional trans cooler add weight. However, a...

Apparently there were several good folks who replied before I got my answer typed out. Seems like a consensus on how it works now.

This may actually working correctly, but differently than you expected. In my recent experience, a “click” of the + will increase the target speed by 1mph. If you press and hold, it may be registered as “+++++++++++++++++”. I think this is different that older generations of cruise control where...

Will do! I will be either in a blue Armada or a gray Mazda5 (for now…). I’m more and more eager to get my truck! I’m also strongly considering swapping the 18” factory wheels for some black ones. They seems to particularly suite the Alto Blue.

I’ve seen a Hot Pepper Red Maverick running around in Meridian. Hopefully the owner is on here. I’m still waiting for mine. It was originally scheduled for 10/25, then got bumped to 11/8 (email). When I check the order tracker, it only shows as “order confirmed”. :-/ Maybe I need to give Cody...

The video belongs entirely to someone else. I just happened to find it an think others might like to see. When I do get my truck, I plan to haul a 5x10 utility trailer I own, and maybe someday a 6x12 cargo trailer. We shall see. :)

I just stumbled across this and appreciated a quick view of using the Maverick to tow. :)

My dealer told me that all incentives that were active at time of order are locked in. I got this in writing specifically for the 0% offer.

Thank you @JASmith for the good power/torque/transmission explanation. You beat me to it and did a good job. :) The only thing I would add is the difference between peak and average power. Unfortunately I am unaware of any standard way to measure/rate “average power in the power band you will...

Aha, I’ve been out of circulation for nearly a week and must have missed that. Thanks!

I was scheduled for October 25 but now the status just shows “Order Confirmed”. My order date is August 23. On September 16 I got an email from Ford saying I’m scheduled for October 25. I could swear that the website linked in the email showed that same scheduled info. Now I see only this. ...
