I was able to pick up my truck today. XLT hybrid with the luxury package.
Ordered 30 Aug 2021
Multiple build weeks in Nov and Dec
Built in Jan (I think)
Sent to port in Feb - Mar
Shipped across the pond in April
Dealer got it 6 May and I picked it up 10 May.
Initial thoughts:
About what I...
Ordered 30 Aug. Hybrid, XLT, Lux. Built Jan / Feb. According to the dealer, it is on a boat now. Should arrive in country ~7 April so I can get it mid to late April I believe.
Not really stressed, just curious.
I didn't get anything exactly like that but I did get a multipage buyer's offer that has the similar information but is laid out different. No order number though.
Where can I look up the window sticker? That sounds like it should work but I haven't found...
I have the buyer's order that both the dealer and I signed but there is no "order number" on it just a "refer to quote". It has the price and options listed out. It is the right build. XLT hybrid, luxury package, and copilot 360. The price is MSRP -$500 military discount +2k or so in extra...
XLT hybrid ordered in August. I got a VIN from the dealer in September but no order number so I can't use the tracking site (which I read doesn't work all that well anyhow).
Dealer told me that I had build dates in Nov, then Dec, then Jan. Dealer also told me in early Feb that it left the...
I haven't received the one I ordered yet but I know I am not going to be crazy over it. I will keep in mechanically sound and clean enough but I have carried enough coffins to know that it isn't worthwhile to get worked up over a scratch, dirty interior, or damn near anything regarding a...
I am getting it shipped overseas so I am guessing that maybe that was when it was loaded on the boat. Maybe the dealer will update it when I actually get it. I am not to worried about it though.
One, I doubt it will have a serious issue in the warranty time and two, if it does, I don't think...
This thread came up in my search. I checked my ford.com account and saw that the warrantee start date was posted on the Maverick I ordered (I got a VIN in November). The date shows 13 FEB 2022. I haven't heard from the dealer about the truck arriving yet though.
I am pretty sure it is completely enforceable. Those of you who are saying "once it is sold, Ford has no right to say what happens to it" are correct; however, the agreement is made BEFORE it is sold and it would be enforceable.
How many of you live in a house with a HOA? You can buy the...
I am supposed to get an XLT hybrid lux built the week of 3 Jan as well. I ordered in August and got a VIN in September. I don't have the order number so I have never been able to use the Ford site for tracking. I also don't get any emails from Ford. The dealer updates me when I ask about it...
Years back, I was on a high school trip where we all drove ourselves to the destination. I had a normal S10 and the guy in front of me had one that was super low like 1-2" of clearance. He hit a medium sized dog that was already dead (the cars in front swerved but he didn't see it in time.)...
My take:
1. Stop using the word "invest". Investments are supposed to make money. This certainly won't.
2. What you are actually doing is betting that the vehicle you are buying is going to break down with expensive repairs. Why are you buying it if you are willing to bet it is going to be...
Since you mention flat towing, it seems like that would be a top priority.
I don't plan on towing my hybrid maverick or towing WITH my hybrid maverick but I would think if you were looking to put something behind a motorhome, the hybrid is the only option.
When I tow a trailer, it is typically...
