Meh, Side x Side would have done the same trail in 30 seconds vs 10 or 15 mins.😆😆 Just keeping it real. I'm sure it will suite most people on muddy back roads and such. This ain't no rock climbing, mud pit jumping vehicle...but I'm fine with that.😉

Yeah, it's ok to have two of them scheduled. One of mine is already scheduled for production and the other is at priority 2... what ever that means. 😆

Is there a reason why you don't just pre-order one? I see you mention purchasing before the end of the year. That looks like a ripoff! What model is this? In a year, there will be a Maverick on every corner. Seems like a steep price to pay, for the basics.

Also there's a difference in winter blend gasoline vs summer blend. if memory serves me, winter blend gave the best mpg.

😂😂 Isn't that the truth!!! My neighborhood is full of them! I don't own one, but a very good friend does. What a blast!!

If reaching the highest mpg is important to you, running non-ethanol gas whether 87 or higher. Should give the best results. In my area, non-ethanol is really expensive! Which negates using it. Back when I was a hyper-miler. I easily achieved 2 mpg more using the non-ethanol gasoline.

Great video! Think I'll stick to the pavement in the Maverick. And leave the off-roading to the Side x Sides. 😁 Definitely more fun using something that's actually made for it. IMHO, some of us are asking too much of the Maverick.

My last vehicle had the Blindspot monitoring and cross traffic alerts. I never realized how nice it is to have these features. Didn't matter how long I've driven without them. They do wonders at avoiding accidents. I went back in and added the 360 to my build.

Having owned or driven the hybrid or turbo counterparts of certain vehicles. All of which had small displacement 4 cylinder engines. There's no way I could confuse either. Whether 0-60 or 45-75 mph. Now that's not to say certain hybrids don't have oomph. There are plenty of them at twice or...

Yeah, If you are concerned with passing power. Skip the aggravation and get the 2.0 EB. I've been a hybrid owner the last 9 years. It's more powerful than the Hybrid Maverick. But no where near as efficient. I'm not a speed demon. But there are times on those two lane roads and even the four...

The last vehicle I bought. I flew out to Dallas TX and drove it back. Dealers in Atlanta GA were charging highway robbery for the same vehicle. Used some Delta Sky miles for the flight. Which cost me only tax at just over $11. I filled the tank once on the 800 mile drive back, since the dealer...

Yeah got two emails today. But for the truck I canceled. Not the one I ordered from the folks in Philadelphia.😆🤦🏿‍♂️ Order confirmed 8/2/2021 Build week November 22nd. Carbon Grey XLT FWD 2.0 I guess they pushed it through without my ID. They'll probably try to sell it for $5k over MSRP or...

Very true! I'm not concerned about wheel spin. Since I won't be stomping it from a dead stop every time I pull off. 😂 What I do want is highway passing power. I think that's where the 2.0 shines. I'm glad the Hybrid isn't a slug either!

Great pics!! I like this color!

Yeah, at only 14.5 miles round trip. I'd have opted for the hybrid. I ordered a FWD ECO. My real world expectations are 27/28 mpg on avg. And as @James St. Patrick says, it has a lot to do with a person's driving style. I find myself hypermiling in vehicles that aren't hybrids now.😆

8 to 9 miles of driving isn't a good indicator of MPG. Also was it city stop and go, HWY or a mix, that you experienced.

Test drove a Honda Insight recently. I must say, the newest hybrid tech makes the transition from electric to gas nearly undetectable! From reading up on it, seems very close in design to Ford's hybrid tech. My old hybrid is nothing like it. You know when it switches over.😂 Power wise, the...

Actually pay your statement balance off each month as not to incur interest. Don't pay the entire running balance off each month. Allow it to report to the credit bureaus. If you pay the entire balance off before the statement cuts, most CC companies will report a zero balance. Basically it will...

It's supposed to work like the other posters say. But it doesn't always work that way. It depends on how the inquiries are coded. Don't count on them being scored as a single inquiry. That being said, inquirers aren't that big of deal as some may think. Depending on how many you already have...

Tier 1 gets the best financing most of the time. Normally anything above a 720/740 will get the same rate as someone with a 850. It's all fluff, once you cross that magic line. It's also not all about credit score. You can have a great credit score but not much credit history. That can also get...
