I've been waiting for this for ages. The guy I most trust takes a quick look. I so wish he'd tear it down. Ignore the fact that the video starts with another car. The presenter is Carl, who is the design specialist at Munro. When he talks interiors, a smart person listens.
For all you TFL fans in Maverick land. I laughed because Nathan chose the exact model SC that I came sooo close to buying while frustrated with my Maverick wait. I was literally about to pull that trigger a few weeks ago when my Maverick suddenly got a VIN and build date (in production now). I...
Not necessarily in a Maverick of course. I'm asking because I'm curious about your experience. You browse the Web and you hit on all these stories about how EcoBoost engines dirty up the valves, etc. How they won't last. It's the Web. You don't know what to believe. So I'm just wondering if...
Could that maybe be the nicer interior and infotainment and features and quality so many of us are lusting after? More soundproofing. Softer materials. Sync4. Better paint.
Are you listening Ford-Lincoln? There's more money to be made off that platform, dudes...
In fact, watch Munro Live in general. Sandy Munro will slowly but surely lift you out of your automotive ignorance, one show at a time. What was really cool about this particular interview is that it shows just how "everyman" Jim Farley is. The guy races. He doesn't spend 10 minutes saying...
Autoline After Hours had a great show last week on absorbent glass mat batteries. It got me to wondering if the Maverick has one of these because of the start-stop feature. Not having my Maverick yet (or even a build date), I thought I'd ask all you Maverick owners if anybody knows the answer...
The OCD "my pristine Maverick is scratched" threads are bonkers. Guys, it's a Hobbit Truck. You ever looked at Hobbit feet? They're not covered in shiny Italian leather - they're hairy dirty feet. Your Maverick is a truck. Trucks get scratched. The more scratches on your Hobbit truck, the more...
I contacted the nice folks at Camera Source to ask if they offered an upgrade camera for the Maverick. They said no, but they'd be happy to do some research on camera upgrades if they could have a little information. My Maverick won't arrive till September, so I'm wondering if anyone is...
I checked on my 3 September Maverick order today, and the nice lady there was really surprised to see that I have a VIN number before I'm scheduled. She said I'm put down as scheduled 8 August, with an ETA in mid September. Then she said I had a VIN and gave it to me. She said she'd never seen a...
Those of you into NFL know what bold predictions are. For the rest of you, they're outlandish predictions that are nonetheless feasible. The more reckless your prediction, the more cool points you get. But it has to stay in the realm of "that's possible". The whole idea of bold predictions is...
I did a forum search and didn't find a thread that answered the question: "How is the visibility in the Maverick?". Any owners who can comment on this, I'd really appreciate it as I'm trying to decide whether I should stick with my 9+ (and counting) month wait or just give up and get a mid-trim...
I think we're already up to one year. I'll go out on a limb and recklessly predict some buyers will wait two full years for later orders with multiple constrained items (like my Sep order that has multiple constrained items). I'm using the Bronco as my example. And also a lot of the forecasts...
This is not a prediction of any kind - I don't have a clue. It's just me wondering out loud. I'd love to see an answer from somebody who's a fleet manager or works in that business.
To me, the Maverick seems to scream "fleet sales". And we've seen postings here of obvious fleet purchases. I'm...
This posting is for those of you on the forum who, like me, are still not quite sure about the Maverick (and like me, you might have one on order). But maybe you haven't looked at the Santa Cruz in person because you don't like the styling or think it's too expensive.
This is NOT intended as...
With all the Ford bashing going in here, I'd like to just send out a bit of praise for the great people manning the order status lines. I call once a month, and I've never had a bad experience. There's always a friendly, supportive voice at the other end. They always tell me how great my truck...
Truck? Nah. You're likely to get run over in road rage by an F250 if you call the Maverick a truck.
Cute Ute? Only if you live Down Under.
Trucklet? Maybe. Except that it sounds like chewing gum.
Sport Activity Vehicle? No thank you. It sounds like a socially-transmitted disease.
Chick Truck...
