I’ve have had mine for a week and just got my tint and new tires put on today, so it feels like it’s time to show. 25% front window tint and 235 Toyo AT3s. Love the look of the tires and once I put some mileage on them, I’ll have a better idea of how they effect handling and mpg.
I’m now...
I wasn’t able to make it to discount tire on my way home but I’m planning on doing the 245 toyo at3s. I have the falkens on my ranger and while they’re good, the toyos are lighter and aren’t as “aggressive” looking which I think is a better look for the smaller truck. Discount offered $50 a tire...
Mine just got delivered tonight! 2 weeks early. It had just rolled off the truck so they hadn’t done the pdi and of course it’s raining out but everyone at the dealer was so excited to see their first Mav. I swung by as soon as I got the email. I’ll be picking it up tomorrow, then straight to...
Just got my built email, it is scheduled to arrive at my dealer between 10/22-10/28 (Seattle metro)
Reserved/ordered: 6/23
Build week: 9/20
Actual build date: 9/21 so took 3 days to build.
Lariat, 2.0, Fx4, 4K tow and lux.
Either you’re really bad at details or you’re intentionally being deceptive about the cost difference. Your first build doesn’t have the luxury package (no body colored mirrors) and your second build is showing the lux package and the upgraded wheels. Those two features alone are a $3k...
Cyber Orange is such a nice color. I too originally ordered Cactus Gray, saw a CO Ranger pass me and it made me rethink my color choice. I ultimately landed on VB though, as it feels exotic enough without me thinking it might be too flashy. Basically I don’t think I could pull off CO. But I’ll...
King County here, I went with AWD simply because our other vehicle is a FWD and the thought of not being able to get anywhere, even with winter tires made me pass on the hybrid. If we had another AWD or 4x4 vehicle, I’d have gone hybrid purely for the gas mileage because it’s not getting any...
Hermasillo Plant has a capacity of about 18k units a month, so let’s split that in half for about 9,000 a month of the Mav (Bronco Sport gets the other half). Bronco orders had a 75% conversion rate from reservation, I’ll be more conservative and go with 50% conversion for Mav, so 40,000 orders...
Thanks, that seems like a decent deal to have them professionally done if you want them. I’ll now consider spending the $20 or so to diy and see if it looks nice enough to have professionally done. Now gotta nail down colors.
Is anyone considering adding pinstriping to theirs? My black 2000 Ranger has goldish double pin stripes that looks really nice, as did my old white Camry (black double stripe). But with how modern vehicles are a bit more swoopy, I can’t decide if pinstriping will be a good look.
Has anyone done...
All the Washington dealers in the Seattle-Tacoma metro seem to be firm on MSRP with varying degrees of deposits. Bickford, the largest by volume is MSRP.
3-4% off invoice is a $$ loser for those dealers, they’re doing it to get more volume for better allocation (it’s just a different strategy...
Your dealer was able to add the 235’s to your order? Mine showed they were incompatible with the fx4 painted black wheels and I had to get the 17” alloys to get the 235’s.
The Build and Price on Ford.com allowed you to do it but in the actual dealer system it was not compatible. Could you...
They’re the FX4 wheels on the Lariat, it has that package (see front tow hooks and the back sticker as well). They do look similar to the XLT wheels, but are gloss black.
That VB Lariat would look fantastic all the way blacked out, with a black grill, mirrors, maybe even the roof. I might end...
Unless you’re ordering from one of the mentioned dealers, pretty much expect to pay MSRP. That seems to be the trend for cars in this car market and it was actually nice walking into the dealer without sweating the negotiation part. You may encounter dealers who are marking up the price, so you...
This is a great first look of the lariat seats against the body color. Area 51 looks good with the brown. If I could get Cactus Gray in the FE, I would. Great catch!
I love the vinyl decals on the side for some reason and I’ve never been a fan of vehicle graphics. How does one design/order...
Dealer doing the AMA on Reddit just now said that some of their orders from the 1st week are getting scheduled and he anticipates late Sept/early Oct delivery. Some dealers seem to being more proactive about gathering details /intel.
Tons of useful info in the thread so far :
The Maverick is a direct replacement for my sport utility Camry and old 4x4 Ranger. I’ve been patiently waiting for something to replace both that combines all their best qualities. . Although loading the Camry full of lumber is always fun, I think I can get about 16 2x4’s in the trunk. 🤣 But...
