Curious why Ram and not F-150? Was ram just giving out better incentives?

If it truly is $1,500 a year a PHEV won't be that much better as that's about how much I pay in electricity to power our Bolt EUV. I drive about 15k miles at $4.50 a gallon currently in CA that's about $134 a month in gas for me. 42 mpg on the nose by hand on last two tanks.

Damn memorial day weekend already have plans with the family 😞 looks like fun times!

I would just rent something for when I need the capabilities. People often forget that option and instead just compromise on what they drive daily usually in the form of crappy gas mileage.

I have a feeling it will be tuned for performance 🙄

Hybrid batteries are roughly $3k if you google other hybrid vehicles like the Escape hybrid. You're thinking of a plugin hybrid or full EV battery replacement. Besides there's a 100k mile warratnty for the hybrid powertrain. If you see a lot of prius hybrids on the side of the road where you...

Totally agree the base engine being a hybrid was a no brainer for me and a game changer in the auto industry as every mfg that has a hybrid option charges a premium for it. Amazing that Ford was the first that came with that proposition and not Toyota

I'd take a PHEV Maverick. The premium would be fine now that you can get a $7,500 tax credit. I had a Chevy Volt. Great car I hardly ever had to turn on the gas engine as the 58 mile range was adequate to cover my daily commute. I would usually get home with 5-10 miles left. Charged it over...

🤣

Only one company will still be around in 10 years. Take a guess which one that would be.

I will be selling my 2013 RX350 now that my hybrid Lariat lux has arrived. The Maverick still doesn't have features on a Lexus that's a 2013 like memory seats power passenger etc. Doesn't bother me that much but the differences are noticeable. The materials aren't as nice as the Lexus but the...

There are quite a few comparisons between the Tacoma and Maverick

First tank on fill up got 42mpg by hand. 50 miles away from the 600 mile tank club

That's sweet! I'm a nubie to all this but it seems strange that Ford couldn't include that simple looking part into a lux build or a la cart at the factory. Will have to look into one for my hybrid.

I'd keep it. There are a couple of videos on YouTube that shows it works. I'm 5' 10" wife is 5' 6" kids seats are fine back there but my kids are bigger now so forward facing. If I had to do it over again I'd take the Maverick over the CR-V. Just keep the infant on the wife side and make...

PC's use state of the art chips at 10 nm and lower. Automobiles use 28nm typically as it's super mature and reliable. When the auto makers canceled their orders. Their capacity was reallocated to someone else. Chips are used in a variety of applications whereas an engine plant only makes...

Mine was like 509 days

And also the SC engine and transmission are made by Hyundai.

Those look like the swing out tool boxes that Ford sells as an accessory.

Buying an ancient design that costs tens of thousands more with terrible fuel economy and ergos to match. You'll be driving uncomfortably for decades as tacos never die! That ought to show'em. At least wait for the refreshed '24 and hope for better comfort, tech and fuel efficiency.
