Did you try asking the stealership? Sometimes you get lucky and have one with a helpful and reputable service department. Other times they try and sell you a $300 cabin air filter. But you never know until you ask.
Just got mine a week ago also as a tall father. I'm 6'3" with a wife and one kid (9 year old). It's got no more or less room than the wife's Forester... *shrug*. Our kid is 54" tall now and doesn't have problems fitting in either seat. Admittedly, I enjoy sitting closer to the steering wheel...
Took delivery of my AWD ecoboost '23 Maverick XL a week ago from Joe Basil Ford in Buffalo NY. No shenanigans from the contract price from the pre-order back in September. No shadiness or dishonesty at all. As good a dealership experience as one can expect these days.
