  1. Dash cubby hole -- what's in yours? 📸

    I don't think there's any doubt that it was originally intended to be for a Sync 4 screen. I'm not sure whether the various electronic parts shortages resulted in the downgrade or the oversupply of Sync 3 hardware caused the downgrade, but if it allowed Ford to build this truck on the cheap by...
  2. Maverick or Prius?

    What? No! I bought my 3 Touring level Prius in 2017 for just over $26k. It doesn't have any of what you describe. The seats are at the same level as my former Ford Escape and adjust up and down just like the Maverick. I can't say it wouldn't scrape in a steep driveway, but it's never happened to...
  3. How did you first hear about the Ford Maverick?

    Last May, husband and his geezer beer buddies - aka Geezer Brew Crew - were sitting around at a local brewery, he and one of the others were talking about plans to buy a truck. Other guy asked my husband if he'd heard about the upcoming Santa Cruz and the Maverick hybrid. Husband emailed me and...
  4. Maverick or Prius?

    I drive a 2017 Prius, and the Maverick will be my spouse's primary vehicle. It might depend on which Prius level (Prius 2, 3, 3t, 4, 4t), but if you already have a truck, you might very well want the Prius as your everyday vehicle. It's pretty roomy and nice, and it's hard to beat the gas...
  5. Base Lariat Hybrid Observations

    My Toyota has auto brights, and I just routinely use them out on the highway, then flick them off as I get closer to home. Mine manage twisty roads pretty well. It'll be interesting to see how the Maverick does. But it's such a simple adjustment that I mostly do it mindlessly like speeding up...
  6. Base Lariat Hybrid Observations

    You can turn that feature off by pulling the signal light stem toward you until it clicks, right? That's how other vehicles I've driven work.
  7. Was a Drivers License required when you placed your order?

    Yes. My husband ordered his June 21st and had to provide his driver's license. I ordered one on July 6th and provided mine. Salesperson said it was so that he could confirm that it was a special order for a customer, not for the dealership. Then he provided me with a copy of the signed order and...
  8. Finally....

    So is yours! Duke fans would love it. 🐺
  9. Finally....

    Just edited my post with a quick photo.
  10. Finally....

    My order came in today at Cella Ford in New Bern, NC. We were busy and missed the phone call, but saw the truck as we were driving by. I am massively excited.
  11. First Edition is here!!

    Gorgeous! Thank you.
  12. Three Mavericks being delivered in eastern NC today.

    And...today, we were driving past Cella Ford and the truck I ordered was parked beside the building. We had missed a phone call from an unknown number late this morning that was from a sales person. It's nice.
  13. Jan. 13 Scheduled Orders - Data Points (from Long McArthur Ford)

    Thank you. It's always good to see the actual numbers instead of the speculation about the numbers. Much appreciated.
  14. Reverse warning sound issue?

    I've driven a hybrid for years, but there are situations for ALL of us where we might not be aware of a vehicle backing toward us from an unexpected direction. There are a ton of distractions in everyday life. Most of them aren't cellphones.
  15. Mask Hooks

    Good idea. Thanks.
  16. Speed limit sign recognition with adaptation?

    My 2017 Toyota displays the speed limit, but it doesn't 'adjust' my speed based on the speed limit. It's a nice feature, but I definitely don't want my car to decide what speed I drive - especially in NC where in a number of locations, the speed limit signs were upgraded to 60 mph, but the road...
  17. Suprise review! How the Maverick holds up to a T-Bone accident! Edited with phitos of other car

    Yeah. I've sat through a decent number of motor vehicle negligence/personal injury trials, and we all should stop talking on here about everybody being 'fine.' You're probably NOT fine. You're banged up and traumatized. Your daughter is banged up and traumatized. Your brand new, custom ordered...
