1-5K I would say is acceptable if you’re in a rural area where the next dealer is super far. Where I live, there’s only 1 ford dealer so I’m stuck with a 5k markup (reservation) and 7k (on lot) Unless I order elsewhere and ship it in.
Hybrid Atkinson’s are a little different I believe.
“The system is designed to keep the engine running within its most efficient rpm range. When increased driving loads lug down the engine's speed, the control system shuts off fuel to the engine and kills the engine. The electric motor then...
Normal behavior for the Atkinson Cycle Engine (Hybrid Engines). A little kick is considered within spec or normal behavior. I’ve owned and currently own many generations of Prius’s which has the same type of engine our Hybrid Mavericks have, if you haven’t started the engine for a few days it’s...

Check that link, input your VIN if there’s fields that popup in the PCM or BCM? It indicates your truck is being built
I’ve been in production since Dec 20th, my modules are still not on but seeing how they can just magically popup overnight means it probably does once the truck is basically nearly finished it seems. We’ll see my build is this week and still no modules but reporting in production on the tracker...
My build is this week, I’m 1333
