    Happy wife happy life....hope she doesn't mind sitting in the service center or waiting for parts.as the repairs, Recalls and TSB's seem to grow each day..of course the SC has similar parts issues and wait times to get parts but nowhere near the TSB's, Recalls :-)
  4. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    You obviously haven't been watching the latest fiasco with the Maverick which is a repeat of something they told us they fixed. On going quality issues which Farley has said the poor quality will take years to fix. Had to move production of the engine to the USA because of the problems in...
  5. Long McArthur Ford is gettting ZERO allocations for at least this coming month.

    Not my understanding. Tim spoke to this and apparently their was a cut off date that the dealer had to straighten it out but it sounds like that date just passed and the 99's were cancelled. Call and check but that is what I understood listening to Tim

  7. Long McArthur Ford is gettting ZERO allocations for at least this coming month.

    Look for the ""Is It True" Segment.....pretty clear 99 is canelled as far as Tim was concerned...which IMHO explains the 2000 orders canceled... (65) Long McArthur Live: Maverick Under Hood Fire Recall and Ford Nationals Recap - YouTube
  8. Long McArthur Ford is gettting ZERO allocations for at least this coming month.

    He also mentioned the "funny" business Ford pulled to cancel 2000 orders that had COVP. They fought with Ford over 18 they had cancelled and Ford agreed to re-instate them. He mentioned that there will probably b a bunch of dealers that either don't know or won't push back on why they were...
  9. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    I was in the same situation and bought the lower SEL AWD which has less power but doesn't have that shetty DCT trans..and then surprise surprise the Maverick I ordered back in October 2021 showed up at my dealer this last month. So I purchased that as well and am now looking into selling it or...
  10. Long McArthur Ford is gettting ZERO allocations for at least this coming month.

    Most likely but note Tim said Ford changed the way they do allocations when it comes to using the sales of other vehicles such as previously they used a high percentage of trucks sales in their formulation and they changed it to now the Ford Escape is a big deal...so the ix for allocations...
  11. Long McArthur Ford is gettting ZERO allocations for at least this coming month.

    You heard correctly. No more allocations for the year with potential for supplements for those vehicles not needed at other dealers. Apparently Tim had a misunderstanding on how allocations would be updated monthly based upon sales but Ford just explained to Tim that the allocation number they...
  12. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    The SC has standard features that the Maverick doesn't have even as options like Solar glass, acoustic windshield, safety features too numerous to post, greater towing capability by a wide margin, better ride, load levelling springs, leather seats heated and cooled, quieter sound, bigger tires...
  13. ⚠️ Recall 23S27 & Delivery Hold on 2.5L Maverick Hybrids for Under Hood Fire (Notice Date 5/31/23)

    I heard that Ford isn't happy with the way the Quality in the Mexico plant was being handled and moved the manufacture of those Engines back to the US. Some validation that US built engines are in some Hybrid Mavericks from a guy named JMC6000 on YouTube.
  14. Who "stepped down" to XL because of the ugly interior color choices of XLT? (Not because of cost savings)

    Huh....the Hybrid gets the high mileage in city driving ...not sure you need cruise control for that..
  15. Who "stepped down" to XL because of the ugly interior color choices of XLT? (Not because of cost savings)

    I dropped down to the XL because I am not a fan of Orange and don't care for the seat covers in the XLT. Also hate the side panels or dash coloration in the doors and dash on the XLT. Now that I have the XL I am glad I made the switch and since I got a 2023 Hybrid I have the cruise control don't...
  16. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    I never said they shouldn't buy one what I said either they like the looks of trucks or like to be part of the fans of trucks if you don't haul or tow anything to utilize what the truck was meant for. with the exception of the Maverick Hybrid where folks might not be truck people but are Hybrid...

    Mine does....2023 XL Hybrid
  18. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Hope you don't compare the Limited model and go with an SEL AWD because that one is never tested...and doesn't have the terrible DCT tranny but lacks the HP...
  19. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    I have no problem with that as it's your opinion. I will say however if both vehicles have all the components for towing including sway control and load levelling shocks and same power plant and accessories...I always go for towing more than towing less. With that said the fact that the Mav has...
