I ordered about 2 months ago, so fairly late in the game. I'm hoping for a January delivery. As others have said or implied, just speculating here, but your dealer might want your hybrid for another customer.

Tell me about the floor mat/bed liner. Is that the FoMoCo "drop in"? Or is it an after market?

Yep, just got mine a little while ago. I'm still excited, looking forward to my new little pickup. The Maverick saves me from having to pay $18,000 for a used 8-year old SUV with 100,000 miles on it.... the used vehicle market is CRAZY!

So I want to make sure I understand that these are the same mats that were in short supply - I took them off my order so as not to delay my truck - but we can buy these later from the dealer as they become available for $135 give or take??? I agree with the comments that these are high enough to...

I ddn't order my XLT hybrid until August 25th, and although I did leave off a few things that were knowingly in short supply (like the mud flaps IIRC), I have told myself I'm looking at January or February. I guess it will get here when it gets here, and I'm fine with that. I also noticed that...

This is not really news, right? I mean, if we were in a big hurry to get a new vehicle we would have already gone on to some other make or model. I have resigned myself to the fact that it may be 6 months before I see my Mav. This is a first world problem, I guess. I mean, we have a couple of...

Dancebuff, I'm worried about this too. I'm also hoping that by the time my hybrid XLT is produced, they will be offering an advantageous financing plan. But if they add a "premium" to the sticker price?? I will refuse to pay that, just on principle.

sounds good. I remember when the Flex was still a concept: they originally called it the Fairlane... and it was going to be a medium or small size wagon (I love wagons). As it came together it turned into something that gets 17 mpg in the city and at that point I thought, why not just buy a...

Dealers are pretty limited in what they make on NEW vehicles. So, they make up for it in the used car market. Typical markups are 2k to 3k. What blows my mind in this market is the dealers that aren't even willing to work for their markup - i.e., detail it, do an inspection, fix the little...

FWD. Definitely wanted the hybrid. Plus, traction is dependent upon weight over the wheels. Not sure how well balanced the Maverick will be but I assume like a conventional pickup the rear wheels won't dig in that well. Also, as one of the old farts on here, I like to point out that I grew up...

Well, I didn't expect An Oscar winner video. I am really looking forward to getting my Mav so any info is good. I would caution that when a guy says "I'm about 6-5" he's probably 6-2. Blame all the high school coaches!!!

I was under the impression that NO hybrids are scheduled at this time....

Wow, inflation! In 2001, the nicest Lear Cap for my F150 SuperCrew was $1300. It was slick, made my Super Crew look like a Suburban, it looked so much like a part of my truck. Now, $3500 for a cap? I think I'll wait and see if Lear and others come up with some nice alternatives. Some other...

I am not in dire need of a vehicle, so I will wait. Ordered an XLT hybrid and the hybrid engine is essential. If the hybrid wasn't available, I would still be scouring for a used car. If I were to her about someone selling a 2011 Malibu to settle an estate, I might grab it. Just something to...

I have a 4500 pound travel trailer, but I pull that with my Expedition. I wanted the hitch on my Maverick for attaching our bike rack. On the other hand, I have a 6x10 aluminum enclosed trailer that gets used occasionally for furniture moves, etc. I am sure my XLT hybrid Maverick will handle...

I respect your wishes, but wondering if you could expand on why the adaptive cruise control is so critical??

I am really hoping I end up with Michelins on mine. It seems like all the other pics I have seen of the wheels show Firestone, but if they're Michelins I'm a happy man.

I'm with you - I don't need another vehicle right now. I ordered the Maverick (just a few weeks ago) knowing it might be months. BTW, I looked into ordering a Chevy Trailblazer first, but I was told "6 to 8 months" for a vehicle I was only lukewarm on. Final point: the reasons I am looking...

Yeah, I get a kick out of reading ANY vehicle reviews, and they're like, "well, this minivan went 0-60 in 7.5 seconds, which is a whole 1/2 second slower than the Mercedes..." Like, who gives a rat's A??? Crazy.

Originally from Columbus, but now living in That State Up North, just across the boarder. Hence my screen name. Just ordered an XLT hybrid, Pepper Red, from a dealer in Dundee. Cannot wait.
