  1. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    I don't know everything but I sure the hell studied and drove both and then bought both to check them out before deciding which way I wanted to go. I know everyone doesn't do that and I don't expect them too...as I have said throughout this thread to each there own and beauty is in the eye of...
  2. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Sorry but a loaded Maverick is not that far off from a Santa Cruz if you attempt to keep as many features alike as possible. In my case my SEL AWD was $1000 cheaper than the Maverick XLT AWD where I put comparable equipment on both. Another fella costed out the top end of both models and came...
  3. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Perhaps you need to tow both before you add to the commentary. The SC comes with tailer sway just like the Mav and has load leveling shocks unlike the Mav and has been beefed up like the Mav without having to buy an option to get to the tow rating of 4k only. Only thing the SC doesn't have is...
  4. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Well Hyundai is looking into a second generation with a hybrid according to some reports but all I care about is my SC outside of MPG is our preference over our Maverick Hybrid..for it's ride, it's towing, it's quietness. it's warranty and for it's standard safety features and it's less recalls...
  5. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Again the Limited SC has the turbo and the shetty DCT tranny. As was pointed out in the video the lower trims have a naturally asperated engine and 8 speed tranny and as the chubby guy stated he believes that vehicle would outperform the one they tested. In fact he chose the SC SEL like I have...
  6. Recall done, now truck won't work.

    He must be talking about the first one since like you said they haven't even sent out the letters first and the recall is supposed to be done in the 4th quarter
  7. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Hahaha...better for towing even though it tows a lot less (like over 1500-3000 pounds on the lower level XL, XLT and Lariat and Tremor and over 1000 pounds over the 4K package on those models compared to the higher level SC. How do you figure? Neither unibody is great offroad but the Maverick...
  8. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Thats already been done. Shay already did a video on that and a few others have followed
  9. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    All those things you mentioned fall into truck things (haul and tow were the words used) and most require hauling or towing. If you want a Truck to do none of those things just admit you either love the looks of a truck or you love being characterized as a truck person...must be an "In"...
  10. Maverick is gone. Maverick replacement is....

    I believe he mentioned he financed his deal at .9% for three years and said they were discounting them 5-6k. He didn't say if he traded in a Maverick that I remember but if he did he probably got a decent trade....
  11. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    So you don't currently but it is conceivable that you may tow or haul something later...and then you add a spilled bait bucket is something you don't want to experience in a car. Well, if you put that bucket in the bed you are hauling something. Hell, one of the most used things about my SC is I...
  12. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    I own a Maveric Hybrid so I know what kind of mileage it gets if that's the point of your photo. But to tell the truth I don't see a necessity for extremely good mileage at this time. I have a 2021 Crosstrek that gets over 30 MPG and in two years has only 3000 miles on it. I have the SC which is...
  13. Is the Jeep Gladiator a Maverick competitor?

    Some folks like it .. JD Power rates them higher in quality and reliability for 2023 than the Ford Maverick under small trucks.
  14. 2022 Maverick Order / Price Guarantee Issue

    My dealer just this last month had the certificate for $2750 and deducted it from the price. I just paid the adjusted price after they removed $2750 from the MSRP and tax and registration. No need for the dealer to ask for more with a promise to send you a check later...that is BS IMHO
  15. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    If your friend doesn't tow or doesn't haul anything why the heck would he buy a new Ram for? In fact why would he own any kind of truck? Where is the utilization? Might as well buy a car or a van or a SUV if he needs to carry friends or family.
  16. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Come on.....He may have bought a cheap RAM. I've owned two 1500 RAM's one was a Big Horn with the hemi and the other was a Limited with the Hemi 4x4. Anyone that would compare a Maverick and be impressed to a RAM 1500 that is loaded is not someone I would pay too much attention to for an opinion...
  17. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    Everyone? Funny....."everyone" I talk to when I mention I have a Maverick Hybrid say I'm crazy for buying a low quality vehicle built in Mexico by Ford...
  18. Can a Hybrid XL be towed?

    Yes you can flat tow the Hybrid 2 wheel drive Maverick
  19. Slight rattling noise behind right air vent dashboard

    Yup..sounds like a continuation of a long time issue around the windshield. If that is what it is, Ford should have corrected this by now
  20. Ford Maverick Review by Santa Cruz owner

    As I posted Hyundai has the same approach to "fixing their transmission problem with software updates as Ford does their issues where they do software updates. One thing different I have noticed though when some Hyundai owners had issues with a peeling interior door handle Hyundai replaced the...
