  3. tired of the wait- test drove a Santa Cruz

    I was looking at these pretty hard . I haven't test driven any of them. But wouldn't consider anything other than the turbo version. I knew when I saw the specs. The base would be a slug. If I could get the turbo in the same price range as the Maverick. I'd strongly consider the SC. That...
  4. 25 MPG for Maverick EcoBoost 2.0L AWD, 1 MPG Less Than FWD

    Glad you're holding out for what you want,. good for you. I'm glad I ordered the 2.0. I've said it a millions times. No free lunch either way you go. You will give up something. Whether it's MPG or performance... pick your poison.
  5. Just ordered my Maverick

    I have no intentions of paying full price for any vehicle. My dealings start at invoice not MSRP. I haven't found a vehicle I wanted so bad, I'd give more than invoice for. I'll admit the mark up on the Maverick, isn't as bad as some vehicles I've come across over the years. I just feel bad...
  6. Hybrid Acceleration

    Yeah, I don't believe that for a hot second. Both my 1.5T and 1.6T would smoke my Hybrid easily at any speed. And the 2.0T vs my 2.4L Hybrid, not a chance in hell. 😂😂
  7. Hybrid Acceleration

    Yes without a doubt. My 2.4L has that same buzzy vibration when I try hard acceleration. Stark contrast from my last 2.0 T, which had no vibration at all entering the cabin. It was way more torquey than the Hybrid. Full torque came on at 2250 RPMs. At 70 mph, RPMs were around 1500 with that...
  8. Hybrid Acceleration

    Yup, I used to try all those methods. lol I used to see just how much I could squeeze out of each gallon of gas. 😆 I'd go out the way just to buy non-ethanol gas as well. At the current cost in my area, not sure it's worth it anymore. Being my first Hybrid, it was fun to do! 9 years later, I...
  9. Hybrid Acceleration

    Yeah, it should be adequate for those not thirsting for that push into the driver's seat. My current hybrid was rated at 8.3 seconds, 0-60. It's ok. For those of us, that have experienced 6 seconds or less 0-60s. You will without a doubt be left wanting more oomph. I look at my current Hybrid...

    Another Bama resident here! 😁
  11. Hybrid Maverick 2.5L Test Drive / Ride Video. Achieving Almost 40 MPG

    The hybrid is averaging that across city and hwy. While the 2.0 average you're referring to, is mainly hwy driving. Totally depends on your situation if it's worth it to you. One way or the other, you will give up something going with either.
  12. FWD vs AWD for acceleration?

    Normally the all wheel drive versions are slightly faster because of traction. This is only when punching it from a dead stop. And that's probably no more than a half of a second. From a rolling start, there's no advantage to AWD. Like you, I'm in the south. So opted for FWD. Wish it were RWD...
  13. Hybrid Acceleration

    I understand! That's a tough one. When I bought my hybrid. I had coworkers that opted for the 2.0 T Kia Optima. They also had mostly highway commutes. What I discovered, our MPGs were closer than I'd have thought. My hybrid uses a 6 speed transmission and not as efficient as Ford's eCVT. MPGs...
  14. Hybrid Acceleration

    Premium isn't required in the 2.0 EB. You'll get more HP with higher octane. But it's not necessary. Either way you'll have to give up something to get the other. I personally picked the 2.0 EB. I can live with the lower fuel economy. 0-60 on the EB depending on FWD or AWD should be pretty close...
  15. Hybrid Acceleration

    I found a review of the Ford Escape with a similar powertrain of the hybrid Maverick. The reviewer drives a lot of different vehicles. I trust his assessments. He's also reviewed the Bronco Sport with 2.0 EB. Watching each video, you get the idea of the power difference. Pretty much what I...
  16. Has anyone had Covid? [Admin Warning: NO POLITICS]

    I've had it twice! Guessing two different strains. First time last year, felt like a train hit me! 2nd time early this year, it was more like a common cold. Except I lost taste and smell for two weeks. Yes, you can have it more than once, regardless of natural immunity. Got the J&J vax...
  17. Courtesy delivery in Atlanta metro area $250

    Nice CD fees up that way! They are greedy as hell in this part of Georgia and Alabama. Fleet manager in Columbus, Ga wanted $450! I almost burst out laughing. Before he'd get that out of me, I would drive 200 miles and save $250 minus gas . lol Or just fly up to Philadelphia for $65 and drive...
  18. Impressions from Maverick 2.0L trainer. Legroom tested. 31-35 MPG reported.

    Very true! I still haven't replaced any of the brake pads on my 9 year old hybrid with over 170000 miles
  19. 🔋 Hybrid Maverick Lux Showing 34.5 MPG and 1,478 Lbs Payload Sticker

    I believe any vehicle that's called a truck, hitting 30 mpg or better will be awesome! I remember when I got my first Hybrid 9 years ago, how excited I was. 😆 Maybe if I didn't already own one now, I'd get the Maverick in this form. Mpg on mine was much better back then, than it is now. It's...
  20. Co-pilot360 worth the price?

    😂😂😂 I'll cheer for either one Alabama or Auburn presently. My grandson says he wants to play for Alabama when the time comes. I'll only be cheering for Alabama at that time.😁
