My wife drives a Buick Encore, a compact crossover, tiny little thing, and I think with the roof rail thingies it might be taller than the Maverick. Trucks don't need to be behemoths for 99% of the people that park them at home.
What's a good orange you've seen out there? Just curious. My mind went to the GTO Judge but I don't know if that's a bit too reddish for Orange Purists.
I hear you, it was actually below 50F this morning and I'd mostly driven my Mav during warmer times, so I had to fiddle with things in a way I previously hadn't even considered. Instead of the rock bottom "low" setting, I set an actual temperature, and all was fine from there.
I am more and more satisfied I jumped when I did, even with all the trepidation about buying a vehicle in such an uncertain economic environment. The package I wanted was this year's package, next year I can't even get it, turns out. The black Ford logo in BAP is going away! Wild.

In case anyone wondered, apparently the rear view mirror rattle is reasonably common. The dealer tried a few different new vehicles on the lot, including a Lobo normally kept inside the dealership, and found the issue was one they could duplicate across multiple models.
First and foremost, thank you to everyone who talked me through the Maverick experience while I was awaiting my order. I took delivery of this gorgeous little truck last Monday, and the finalization was so easy I couldn't believe it. Got it home, took pictures - here's one below - and then...
Here it is, first time i took it out at all since bringing it home. Still getting the rear paint chip sorted out by the dealer but otherwise all checks out, that BAP is worth every penny inside and out.
