Maverick is positioned to be an entry priced vehicle. Ford's thing is trucks. A Ford Maverick truck makes perfect sense for Ford's brand. I can't imagine anyone at Ford corporate thinking a Lincoln-branded Maverick would serve any purpose. Lincoln is trying to reclaim its niche as a...

Download the owner's manual from this forum. You can look it over on your iPad on the flight to Philly. Check the body, paint, and glass for damage that might have occurred in transit. You'll never get a warranty claim for exterior issues through after you've driven the truck from Philly to...

I have an EB Maverick and a 2022 hybrid on order. I bought the EB in late November when the opportunity arose because I was pretty sure I was going to be waiting a loooong time for my 11/15 hybrid order. My hunch was right. It's looking very likely that I'll be waiting at least a year...

Same. My EB truck shifts poorly when the engine is cold. It's completely fine after a couple of minutes of driving. I think an 8-speed transmission is a peculiar choice in a turbocharged vehicle. The truck never wants to rev above 2,000 rpm unless I put my foot into it pretty aggressively...

They appear to be these: Amazon.com: OASIS AUTO OS-004 Leather Car Seat Covers, Faux Leatherette Automotive Vehicle Cushion Cover for 5 Passenger Cars & SUV Universal Fit Set for Auto Interior Accessories (Front Pair, Black&RED) : Automotive (not actually leather, "faux leatherette")

I picked up my Maverick in November and realized pretty quickly that people notice it, even if a conversation doesn't take place. The attention seems to have tapered off a bit, but I still have a fair number of parking lot conversations with strangers. It's funny, I feel compelled to keep my...

I read your comment and thought to myself: "She must live in Florida." Bingo! I've lived in and traveled in all corners of the county. FL drivers are truly the worst. And I n-e-v-e-r see anyone get pulled over by the police here.

If your intention is to flip the truck, then your sole priority should be getting your hands on the vehicle as soon as possible (you can't sell it if you ain't got it). Nobody really knows how long people are going to continue to pay stupid money for the pleasure of purchasing a depreciating...

If I ordered in the June-July 2021 timeframe and I still had not received a build date from Ford, I'd be contacting my dealer to ensure they actually placed my order with Ford. I suspect there are a fair number of people out there who believe they've placed an order, but in actuality Ford...

The original Maverick was built as Ford's entry-level "economy" car. Ford was starting to lose sales to import brands and positioned Maverick to appeal to younger buyers. Ford leaned heavily into the base MSRP of $1,995 in its marketing and advertising. Any of this sounding vaguely familiar...

CR's observed MPG is much closer to my own experience than most of the other reviews I've seen. I have to drive v-e-r-y conservatively to get close to 20 MPG in all-city driving in my AWD EB. Conversely, my highway MPG has been in the low 30s without much effort. I know that mileage suffers at...

I've been driving my Carbonized Gray EB here in S Florida since November. In my corner of the world, if the vehicle is running, the a/c is running. Although we're still a couple of months from summer, we've had temperatures in the high 80s with typical FL humidity. I have no complaints. The...

I received an email from Ford a few weeks ago, basically the same as @Rob Cactus Gray 's, except my offer was for $2,500, not $3,000. The fine print at the bottom doesn't exclude Maverick and states "A/Z/D plans ineligible" so I'm going to assume that means that one can combine the offer with X...

Cheer up. You're making an assumption that somebody was screwed over so that guy could buy his truck. Maybe someone changed their plans or changed their mind. New car dealerships are selling far fewer vehicles than they have in years past. I don't fault them for making as much as they can on...

Ford has a complaint line. I'm not sure they can do much affect your transaction, but you can at least make them aware of that particular dealer's tactics: 800-392-3673

On customer ordered vehicles, dealer can assign priority code between 10-19. All other things being equal, Ford would look at and presumably build the order with the lower priority code. It seems dealers have their own systems for how they assign the codes, for example some dealers give...

I believe you are correct. Check the order guide that was in place on the date your order was confirmed. Order guides are in the "Ordering, Pricing, Production" section of this forum. I downloaded the order guide that corresponds to my order date, just to have it on hand, especially...

Ford reported on 1/5/22 that Maverick sales for calendar year 2021 totaled 13,258. By Ford's reporting, the number of Mavericks sold through March 31, 2022 is: 32,503. In the same January report Ford said 25,880 Mavericks had been produced in 2021, meaning they still had 12,622 Mavericks...

Well, there are seven of them. ...and some might call them diminutive

Picked mine up 11/30/21 and haven't passed 3,000 miles yet. That'll probably happen in late April, around the 5 month mark.
