Congratulations!

When my MY2023 order arrived, I checked with my two credit unions, Navy Federal and Penfed. On a Sunday I submitted two applications and was approved for both. Went to the dealer, picked up the sales contract, drove to PenFed since it was closer and was back at the dealer within an hour. The...

It is just trying to tell you that it is glad to see you. Now that I have had my Hybrid for over a year, it doesn't seem to click and pop as much. Maybe it's just me, or maybe Sparky is not that glad to see me anymore. She has done a lot of hard work over the past 17 months. Here she is...

I'm an idiot too! For too many reasons to list here.

It's not for nothing that I call my Maverick the EcoBlast! Mine is FWD and I really like the torque steer. So much fun to drive quickly. "Most fun to drive" is a relative thing in my opinion. I brought home three tons (three pallets on a flatbed trailer) of fertilizer yesterday, and my F350...

You are better off without it!

Deepest sympathy Crikey..

I have one that resembles your order, except I also got the lux package. The EcoBlast FWD is absolutely the most fun to drive vehicle I have ever owned. The engine and transmission work so very well together. I believe you are going to love your Maverick.

I have a vague suspicion that you can't afford a Maverick. I advise everyone not to buy a vehicle they can't afford, no good will come of it.

My wife loved her 1988 Bronco II and the 15 years of reliable service it provided, so when the new Bronco Sport hit the lots we took a look. She was not impressed, nothing specific, just overall didn't do it for her. The 1.5 liter 3 cylinder engine in the Bronco Sport was a deal breaker for...

I have both EcoBlast and Hybrid Mavericks. The Eco is 2wd, I have an F150 to tow the boats and horses. I get right at 30MPG with the Eco vs 40MPG with the Hybrid. I would probably get better MPG if I drove the Eco more conservatively, but it is an absolute Blast to drive. When I was a kid my...

Wow, that is great news! The worst thing about the Maverick is the waiting.

Hybrid Sport mode makes happy noises. I use it sometimes when my wife is not with me. Even though 70 is in the rear view mirror, there is still a very happy 16 year old lurking inside. I am glad that Ford gave me the option.

I always use the dealer during warranty. They do the recalls at the same time. I have not had a problem with the dealer's performance so far, but I have only been going there for 30 years. The service manager is kind of new, she has only been there 15 years but she seems to be working out. I...

I need a pickup truck every day. An SUV can't hold 10 bags of feed/seed/fertilizer. Every time I go anywhere, I stop on the way home at the supply store and load up. My old Mazda/Ranger is now 25 years old. It was the absolute lowest trim level when I bought it new in 1999 for $12K MSRP. When...

The Farm Bureau $500 discount is great, I have used it twice. I have had Farm Bureau insurance on my farm for 30 years. USAA raised my car insurance premium by 100% :devilish: in October. I got a car insurance quote from Farm Bureau and saved thousands.

I think you did well in your choices. I have had ESP extended warranties on several Fords in the past. I never used them, because nothing ever went wrong. I have not bought an ESP plan for any of my Mavericks because I don't think it will be necessary. If they become problematic, you can buy the...

Wow, the title of your thread caused a major flashback to the days of my youth in the 1960s and 1970s. I thought you wanted to permanently remove the console so you could maybe snuggle up to your sweetey as we used to do in our bench seat pickup trucks back in the day. That way when you drove...

Nice!

Check the GVWR on the door sticker. I think the Tremor is lower than other Mavericks.
