  1. 87 Octane?

    I've had no problems on 87 but am wondering if long range there might be an advantage to using 92 as it has no ethanol whereas all 87 in MO has ethanol? My son has converted me to Amsoil but hasn't convinced me yet to switch to ethanol free gas.
  2. Fuel Type

    I don't see much difference in performance between 87 and 91/92. My question is whether its worth the extra $ for the higher octane because its ethanol free vs 87 octane in the long run???
  3. I have two Ford Mavericks, Lariat or Lariat Tremor. Which one should I keep.

    Tremor hands down. The 21 MPG is bu__s__t. I've had mine since Dec and its totaled 26.1 so far in mostly 2 lane back road driving on 87 octane gas. I live 10 miles from town and probably drive a little faster than I should. I think I could up the mileage a bit if I drove the speed limit and...
  4. 🤝 List of honest dealerships for Ford Maverick buyers

    Don Vance Ford in Marshfield MO. They were on top of the process all the way from when I first ordered in Jan 22 and upgraded my order to an XLT with Tremor package in Sept to delivery in Dec.
  5. Real world Maverick Tremor MPG -- What's yours?

    I've got 987 miles on my Mav Tremor and it registers 26.3 MPG which is pretty accurate as I check each fillup. Thats 2 lane paved back roads with some town driving but not a lot of city driving. I live 10 miles from town down a 1/2 mile gravel drive way. I probably drive a little faster than...
  6. 2022 Maverick - 1 year review @ 14500 miles

    Who do you know at Ford--Order in Oct pickup in Feb??? I ordered in Jan reordered in Sept upgraded from FX4 to Tremor and picked up end of Dec! About a week under one year and I felt lucky! You have a beautiful truck. Only have 1,000 miles on mine with no issues and it far exceeds my...
  7. 2022 First Edition delivery after 568 days wait

    JOSH--Pretty truck-good you were blessed with the patience of Job. I think I would have killed someone over the recall! You forgot to order some mud flaps! I ordered some Ford OEM flaps even though they are supposedly a Ford shortage item and got them thru Amazon in 3 days after my truck...
  8. .

    Got my Tremor the end of Dec. It has 600plus miles and registers 26.2 MPG which is accurate within a tenth or so when I put gas in it-both times! My driving is mostly on 2 lane windy roads-10 miles to town- with a half mile gravel driveway. I'm a happy camper if it stays in the mid 20's over...
  9. Falken Wildpeak Trail 235/65r17 Tires Installed on Hybrid Maverick -- From Dealer to Tire Shop

    I don't know what Ford is thinking with its lousy Continental Tires. With the Maverick there isn't any negotiation room as just getting one is a miracle. However with both my F250 6.7 liter trucks part of the deal was they came with Michelon tires or they exchanged them before I drove it off...
  10. Maverick vs Ridgeline vs Santa Cruz review after taking delivery

    Informative reading your comparison. I checked out the Santa Cruz and Rigeline before I ordered my Mav and came to the same conclusion without the actual experience. Upgraded from a base line XL to an XLT Tremor in Sept when my 22 order wasn't scheduled and got it the end of Dec. 31K for...
  11. Next-Gen 2024 Tacoma Spied Hiding Production Body

    I'm not anti Toyota-I've had 3 Toyotas and 2 Nissons in years past. Toyota's strength has always been their reliability and resale. I actually priced both as I was not sure I was ever going to get my Mav as it was on order for over a year. I can't speak to the new generation Toyota but the...
  12. Next-Gen 2024 Tacoma Spied Hiding Production Body

    My Tremor arrived a month ago and I wouldn't trade it for 6 Toyotas-is 26MPG good enough for you?
  13. Why Buy a Maverick?

    I couldn't agree more--I'm 83 and was brought up by my Grandfather whos philosophy was if you can't pay for it you don't need it. Well I have a F250 6.7 for hauling-a fully decked Ranger for road trips and I wanted a small run around for everyday use-along comes the Maverick at a price point I...
  14. My 2023 Maverick Lariat Tremor (in Avalanche) is Here!

    Owners manual tells you to turn off the traction control if you are stuck in mud or snow as that allows all wheels to turn so I would imagine you could do the same if you were in really crappy conditions!
  15. My 2023 Maverick Lariat Tremor (in Avalanche) is Here!

    I ordered a 22 on 11 Jan and reordered a 23 with the Tremor pkg in Sept. Never got the 22!
  16. My 2023 Maverick Lariat Tremor (in Avalanche) is Here!

    When I picked it up yesterday it had 3 miles on it and I drove it home on a 2 lane hilly twisting back road at between 60 and 65 MPH. Holds the road and takes the curves beautifully-the suspension is a little stiffer than my Ranger but I attribute that to the Tremor package and it has a higher...
