My dealer has a new 2023 Ford Escape PHEV on the lot for $41k (Minus a $3750 federal tax credit). Considering my ‘22 Maverick XLT hybrid is still worth close to what I paid for it after nearly two years and 20k miles, I’m considering trading it and getting the Escape. I love my cyber orange...
The bubble is not over yet, especially for the Hybrids. Sold an XL Hybrid to Carvana for $3.5k over MSRP three weeks ago, while a friend just sold an XLT hybrid to Carvana this week for $5.6k over MSRP.
If you are only driving less than 100 miles per month, owning any car is counterproductive from an economic standpoint. Between taxes, insurance, depreciation etc., for that many miles, renting a car when needed or using taxis, ridesharing apps would likely be cheaper.

Already had a '22 XLT Hybrid in Cyber Orange that have loved since Day One. Had ordered a '23 XL Hybrid in Oxford White with plans to add custom detailing and then raffle off as a fundraiser for RocketSTEM. Those plans were tossed aside after discovering all the rules for raffles in Florida and...

Thanks but no worries. It, and the other three Mavericks, will show up at the dealer eventually. All made it to New Orleans and from there they go via semi on I-10 East.
I like my '22 Maverick Hybrid and am aware that only a very small number of the vehicles produced will ever experience a failure and fire due to it. I'll look more closely into the class action lawsuit, but I am inclined not to join the lawsuit at this time. That may change in time depending on...
