I REALLY like the Maverick's feel; it's very comfortable to me. Then again, I've been driving old Rangers for the better part of the last 25 years, so I might not be the best judge of comfort. :ROFLMAO: However, my 81 year old father in law thinks his Maverick is comfortable too.
I'm in my...
Well, within reason. Going $100k into debt for something if it makes you happy may not be the best option. :)
However, since I can easily afford this, it making me happy is another acceptable factor. If it was going to put me in a bind financially, I'd say the "happy" factor would be...
I have 2 coworkers that have white vehicles. One is Oxford White, the other is Space White (or something similar). They always park next to each other, and the Space White one always looks dirty to me. Just sayin'... :ROFLMAO:
I'm not trying to dissuade you or bad mouth space white, it's...
Tires were another issue. Mine also needs new tires. I'm not sure I can sell or trade it with the current tires or if they'll even make it until my '25 is built/delivered, so it may be a non-issue, except I'll buy inexpensive ones if I'm selling it, so I'll probably save $300-$500 on tires...
I was going to get HPR, because I heard it was more orange than red, but they discontinued it.
I don't hate Cyber Orange, and it REALLY stands out in a parking lot...or anywhere really. :) But it isn't available anymore, and I like bright white a little more on a truck.
I'm getting Oxford White.
I got Cyber Orange, because I went to Clemson and love orange. Aside from orange, I'm not really a "flashy" color kind of guy, and Ruby Red was really the only other color I liked a lot. I love how bright white "pops" on a vehicle...especially when I put my tiger...
And yet, hundreds (if not thousands) were waiting at a Ford dealership at 9:00am yesterday morning to order a new one when the order bank opened.
It's probably a combination of 1) the 22MY Maverick was priced near cost to get people to buy it, 2) not enough competition, and 3) inflation since...
Years ago I developed a belief: if you have to justify something (to yourself or others), you probably shouldn't do it. Anytime I say that to someone, the knee jerk response is something like, "I don't think that's true" or "Really? why?", or "That's nonsense." But if you think about it, most...
Hey Tim, Thanks for all your insight and your attention to this site.
I went into the dealership in Wake Forest, NC at 9:00am, and they said the order bank wasn't open yet. I left my "build" with them, and supposedly the manager placed the order later in the day; but I haven't gotten...
This is the best video I've seen regarding the whites.
(Back to Cyber Orange) Here's my problem with blaming the monitor. I look at Ford's pictures from 2021, and they look orange, but then I look at other pictures, and it looks like exactly what I have.
The picture attached to my profile...
I paid $26k out the door for my XLT w/ SIBL and $1k worth of other amenities. This time I got almost the exact same truck with the luxury package, and it will be almost $7k more.
For that extra $7k I'm getting a heated steering wheel (the dumbest amenity I've ever loved; my wife has one)...
That's what I suspected. I've got 2 coworkers who have white vehicles. One looks like Oxford White & the other Space White. The "Space White" one always looks dirty, because they park right next to each other. :)
Searching Google and seeing them on my monitor could be just as bad as looking at pictures of them on Ford's website.
But your point is still valid. If neither are new colors, I could go to a Ford dealer and see the colors on an actual vehicle.
I was going to comment that voice commands for temperature and such would be cool if they work. Maybe it just takes a little practice/learning. I know when I started using voice commands to call people or do voice to text with my 22 Maverick, it didn't always go well, but now it's considerably...
I got online this morning and created a build and was at the dealership at 9:00am trying to get them to enter my order. They said they couldn't get into the order bank yet, so I left my "build" with the salesman. Hopefully they enter it asap, and I won't have to wait 13 months for this...
I was all set to get a Hot Pepper Red MY25 Maverick, and I just saw that the HPR has been discontinued. (heavy sigh).
After being duped 3 years ago by being told school bus yellow is Cyber Orange (and the picture LOOKED orange!), I'm wondering: will Eruption Green and Ruby Red really be the...
