  1. Anyone think there may be an extended cab, larger bed option in the future?

    The initial release of the 2024 Ranger will only be a crew cab but I have read they are considering a super cab version later in the model year. It would still be about a foot longer than the Maverick but if this is true there is no way they would make that same style change to the Maverick.
  2. Door Edge Guards Installed

    I used the same product on all 4 doors and it does not affect opening and closing doors in any way. Tap it into place with a rubber mallet and it won’t budge an inch and you can remove it in seconds.
  3. Hybrid or Eco boost

    If you drive less than 5,000 miles a year or mostly highway miles then the hybrid may not be worth it. If you mostly drive highway miles then the difference in gas savings between hybrid and EB may be insignificant. Don’t get caught up in paralysis by analysis. Get what you want that meets your...
  4. Tracking Options After Order Confirmation

    So sit and wait for Ford to notify. I can do that. Thanks for the reply.
  5. Tracking Options After Order Confirmation

    Are there any tracking options for an order prior to Ford issuing a VIN? I have a confirmed order # and completion of the vendor COVP but don’t expect a VIN for months. Is there a way to track the order status in that interim period or do you just have to wait for Ford to issue a letter? Also, I...
  6. Who needs a hybrid anyways?!

    To emphasize a point, do not base your true MPG for either model on the dash display. The only true measure is to manually divide miles driven since your last fill up by gallons of gas purchased. That reading has always been less than the display on mine. The last tank showed over 42 MPG on...
  7. Sound Quality

    I was not expecting much but was surprised at how well they sounded for a stock system, but it really depends on the source and type of music you are playing. I have only played from a USB drive and some stuff actually sounds great but once you get into more dense or layered recordings the...
  8. 358 Days Later!..and some advice?

    I guess I might be the only DIBL vote. I have a SIBL but after owning it, I would prefer a DIBL. The drop in may be slippery but sometimes that’s good as it makes larger items easier to move around, and I think they are easier to clean as debris doesn’t stick to the surface as much. And you can...
  9. Reports from a salesperson (low order numbers for 2024 Maverick)

    Spoke with the sales managers at two locations Wednesday morning. One had 136 allocations and said they had people in line waiting for the doors to open Monday and were bombarded with rollover orders. But after that things slowed down and they still had about 35 allocations left. This dealer...
  10. Has Ford "Solved" the Maverick Demand Problem with Higher Pricing?

    My response to the original question is yes and no. Yes if you need to add luxury packages and other options like 4K tow, etc. No if you just need a basic truck. My 2024 build is a basic XLT with no options. That comes to a MSRP of $26,315. With destination, tax and license I still get out the...
  11. 2024 allocations info from local dealer

    You are correct. I understood him but did a poor job in wording that sentence. Thanks for the edit.
  12. 2024 allocations info from local dealer

    Basic XLT EB which is luckily all I wanted. What I didn’t ask is if their allocations are broken down by configuration (you get this many AWD, this many tow packages, etc.).
  13. 2024 allocations info from local dealer

    Just spoke with the sales manager at a local Ford dealer and was told dealerships should have received their 2024 Maverick allocations last week. He said Ford is trying to do a better job of communicating with dealerships to avoid the ordering issues of the last two years. This dealership is...
  14. Dealer Informed Parts For Hybrid Hood Fire Recall Fix Will Not Be Available Until December

    Almost hate to post this, but a neighbor of mine said the Ford dealership service department told her they are not expected to have the parts for the hybrid recall repair until December. They also told her to park her vehicle outside. I have a Mav hybrid on this recall so I contacted them...
  15. Dealer Wants Truck For A Week To Fix Dash Rattle

    So I talked with the service rep at my dealership. Ford has put out a SSM regarding the dash rattle. I was unable to get a copy as it appears it just goes to dealers. The SSM lets service departments know they can request a kit to install under the dash to stop the rattle. It is not a gasket...
  16. Any current owners thinking of placing a 2024 order?

    I have a 2022 XLT Hybrid and will have a 2024 XLT EB order placed on the 17th. Deposit was only $100 and refundable and you can choose not to accept it if and when it comes in. After owning the hybrid I decided I would rather have the EB. I’m also looking at new 2023 XLT EB’s that are showing up...
  17. Dealer Wants Truck For A Week To Fix Dash Rattle

    I had a rattle in the dashboard that seemed to be coming from around the driver side vent that is close to the windshield. It was intermittent but it could get pretty bad. Took it to the dealer and they were able to drive and hear it. They told me Ford had issued a bulletin for this and it was...
  18. Slight rattling noise behind right air vent dashboard

    I have a dashboard rattle near the driver side vent right against the windshield. It is intermittent but when its there it is very noticeable. I took it to my dealer yesterday. They test drove it and luckily the rattle appeared. They said Ford has a CSS for this problem as the rattle is coming...
  19. HOOD STUCK! ANY IDEAS?

    Same issue here. No way to get the hood open. Took it to the dealer and they said the hood release cable came apart. They ordered a new part and will be doing the repair tomorrow.
  20. Maverick June 2023 Sales & Production: 7,473 Sold / 10,133 Produced

    Just anecdotal info, but I was at my Ford dealer this week. It’s a huge dealership in Northern CA. They never have Mavericks in stock for more than a day but they do have plenty of 2023 Rangers. I asked my salesman if he felt people were holding off until the 2024 Ranger release and he said he...
