Im a GM guy. But GM has no sense in what people want.
I have had zero problems with my maverick.
The price was right.
Other than infotainment lag, the only thing i wish i could do with my maverick is plow snow.
So ford engineer... if your reading. Ill trade mine in for a new one if you put...
It could be worse... my son has an accord that has a do not drive recall. Takata airbags. It can kill you. We are also a 2 day drive from the nearest honda dealer.
I have a shadow black 2023.
Opted for
Ecoboost & AWD
Spray in bedliner.
Bought aftermarket rims (going to mount studded winter tires on steel rims)
After needing it, kinda regret not getting the full size spare.... had to do a roadside plug job.
The best ive seen my truck do was 6.9L/ 100km during a road trip on the quebec 389 highway & NL 500 which Involves a lot of coasting and 35mph winding mountain roads.
My average is like 27-28 mpg (my truck shows communist unit). I rarely get the chance to drive mine at highway speeds.... and our highway has a max speed of 80km/h (around 45mph if i guess right). I have a stock XL AWD
They hate us cause they aint us.
I just bought an off grid cabin. The maverick is totally capable of bringing what i need back and forth. Generator, garbage, gas cans, food and water. The fuel economy helps the 100ish km round trip its not breaking the bank going to town.
I mean you could do...
My sons 2006 accord and the 2011 silverado my ex wife got in divorce both have lethal airbag recalls.
My maveric had 1 recall because my blinkers wont flash quickly when one of the bulbs blow, which was solved by a software update. 🤔
Nice try by jeep/dodge/Chrysler. ill strap a wheel barrow...
Welcome to the darkside bro. My sierra blew its transfer case and wanted something i could afford to daily drive, and not a fan of midsize trucks.
Maverick Payments are cheaper than the constant maintenance a 300k KM truck was demanding ( cv axels every 13 months, ball joints every 16 months...
I had one... check engine came on and off during the same night. I chaulked it up to poor gasoline quality here in northern canada ( i filled up shortly after) I rarely have an opportunity to buy 91 octane... ours is aged 89 sold as 87 lol.
Dealer said they couldnt replicate issue, but would...
What really grinds my gears is that other markets do have compact pickups and UTEs that would sell well in north america.
Honda could easily sell some acty trucks and vans here, even assemble them in north america to avoid the chicken tax. Id buy one of each to be honest... i have to drive like...
I have an xl. Really regret not getting the 4k tow package (awd and spray in bedliner were my only options). I dont own a trailer, but it would be nice to help pluck a car out of the ditch or tow a camper.
They did call me and ask if i wanted the 4k package 3-4 months into my wait but figured...
Wouldnt some seafoam in fuel tank + sport mode + full send release some carbon?
Premium isnt available all the time where i live... we have an oil pricing board that sets ceilings per gasoline shipments (we get 3 shipments a year of 89 octane sold as 87 as its expected to degrade to 87 by the...
Interesting. I have less than 11000km on mine so far... might get mine done earlier.
I work in a mine lab... Apparently we are getting an oil analyzer for mining truck oil samples... i already told em im going to being some from my personal truck lol.
I was a loyal gm guy.
Our gm dealer had nothing on the lot... said pre order only.
well if im pre ordering i am getting what i want and i wanted a compact pickup... not a mid size for the price of more than a full size. ( canyons are more expensive than sierra)
My next 4 vehicles will be...
I just have tailgate letters and a screen protector for the infotainment and cheap seat covers.
I do want rims, as i got steelies (any amazon affiliate marketing peeps in here? ) Im feelin chrome... would love to get some bronco heritage wheels tho.
And some rear cupholders. My work just...
