  1. Ford enforcing stricter Order Name Matching Policy on dealers [Bulletin Added]

    I still want to inspect and test drive my vehicle before I take delivery, and I want a service department to handle whatever issues follow. But beyond that, I'm fine with ordering online.
  2. How many Mavericks have you seen?

    As of May 4th, 2022, there are 3 of them on our three-block long residential street in eastern NC. None of the owners knew each other until they bought their Mavericks. 😄
  3. KEY REPLACEMENT

    We followed the owner's manual instructions to delete that code and set our own easy to remember code.
  4. KEY REPLACEMENT

    You absolutely CAN leave your fob/transmitter in the truck, and then lock and unlock the driver's door with the keypad. We do it.
  5. KEY REPLACEMENT

    Did anybody NOT get one? I don't think I've ever bought a new vehicle that didn't include that tag.
  6. Something for the cubby that's on top of and behind the touchscreen.

    I'm learning to like Android Auto in my husband's Maverick. It's taken me a month, but I'm finding more and more reasons to use it. My 2017 Toyota has USB downloaded navigation maps that have to be updated every other year (at $160) so running Google navigation through Android Auto for the...
  7. Ride Quality Inquiry… rough, harsh or choppy?

    Ok. We own a Maverick, and I've ridden in a Santa Cruz, and I agree that the Santa Cruz is a bit smoother, but no way is the Maverick 'harsh' or 'choppy.' You mentioned multiple reviews talking about that very thing, and I strongly disagree. And I still doubt the existence of multiple reviews by...
  8. Should I just get a Ranger?

    Why wouldn't you just wait out your Prius lease before deciding whether or not you should buy the truck you ordered in October? I mean, if that's what you wanted, why not buy it?
  9. Ordered Maverick, dealer added on $2.5K of features. What should I do?

    That's fine, but he DIDN'T order it. Adding something the customer didn't order is very sketchy.
  10. New Member from NC

    Welcome from New Bern. My husband was on board early, and he took delivery of a first edition lariat about a month ago. It's a nice truck. I like it. Honestly, if the XLT is what you want, wait for it. Call around or email lots of dealers in the meantime to get them to put you on their wait...
  11. ADM fatigue may have finally occurred.

    But they're very much midsized cars with all of the accessories as a Camry and Accord. There's very little difference in fit and finish, although the rear seat is an inch or so narrower. I'm not sure where you came up with the idea that a Prius is a comparable build as a Honda Fit, which is the...
  12. ADM fatigue may have finally occurred.

    I'd have to disagree with you about that 4 to 7k statement. I've owned 2 hybrids that I bought new. I bought my fully loaded 2008 Prius in the middle of fast rising gas prices, and I had to wait for it, but I paid about $27k or maybe $1500 more than a comparably built Accord, and about the same...
  13. Just got my Window Sticker - XLT Lux and Moon roof MSRP prices increased over my ordered prices ...

    He may not have any problem. Many (maybe most) dealers now know the process to go through smart vincent(?) to have Ford reimburse them for the difference between the protected order price and the updated price. We had no problem at all.
  14. Back Seat For Road Trip Question

    I've ridden short distances in ours, and it's slightly more comfortable than my Prius. Honestly, with the center armrest down, it should be really comfortable. It's not cramped at all back there. I'm 5'6", and I'd be fine on a longish trip.
  15. Can someone help me understand this dealer paperwork?

    Yeah, assuming you signed it, and the dealer copied your ID, it looks like it's ordered.
  16. First Oil Change on Hybrid Maverick XLT -- my notes / tips

    Legit observation. Obviously, lack of oil could be interesting, but do synthetic oils deteriorate at all? I follow the manufacturer's guidance when it comes to oil and tire rotations, but is changing synthetic oil important? I don't know.
