I did not realize that - That's a big deal. It is the perfect truck to haul behind a motor home. I have been on the Hybrid since the beginning. I would like to have AWD but rather have a Hybrid!

They are just now kicking into production. They made some Hybrids and (seems like more) AWD Ecoboost on first runs. They made the Hybrid the standard drivetrain so I expect they can produce them too. It would be interesting to know what percentages of orders are Hybrid vs. Ecoboost? If you...

I think we will start seeing a lot of Mavericks at dealers in the near future. They will throw on a few dealer installed options and jack the price up. They knew to order standard packages with no other installed options so their orders would get into production. Once Ford shut down the online...

Production is just now kicking off. Relax, they will start scheduling more builds. I suspect many dealers are prioritizing themselves (dealer stock). Vehicles are being scheduled for September and October already. Each week it should increase in scheduled builds. Keep in mind, you are getting a...

I saw that video and heard him say that they had pre-sold some by June 15 and their allotment was 160 Trucks per month. Production is just starting - let's hope they kick into high gear!

There was no deposit required but I put down $500 to the dealer. He said when it comes in, if I don't want it, they will give me a full deposit refund... Of course, they want to mark it up and sell it off the lot! So my truck counts against their allotment but they know they can sell it off the...

It will work - I wish it had more blue and less tan, like the shoe! When you don't have any alternate interior colors, it is what you're going to get. If it bothers you then do something. I am okay with it and intend to see how it looks and works out. I am driving a VW with Black "leatherette"...

If you have a build date, don't make any changes! You will likely be moved back in production if you do. They will just build another Lariat Lux and move you back. If you remove something from a package, it is custom and subject to change in production date. I ordered a Lariat Lux and I am okay...

Me too - I placed my order on 7/19 with no news. I will accept the tonneau cover later (or decline at delivery) but I ordered a Lariat Lux Hybrid so I have to wait it out.

Ford should backorder the Tonneau covers and bed mats to be sent later to the dealer to install. The spray in bed liner can also be done by most dealers. I am sure many would opt for those options to be dealer installed to get their truck quicker. Component supplies have not caught up with...

That's awesome - I used to own a 72 Maverick with 302 V8 and 3-Speed. It was quite a sleeper with stock exhaust. Most of the weight was the motor and transmission. A buddy of mine had a Comet GT that was a screamer. I always liked the old Maverick logo - it would have been cool if they had...

I think we made a wise change to Alto. I sure hope we start seeing some builds get scheduled! They have to raise capacity and kick into more production. Tip: I also contacted my dealer on the color change to Alto. He said he handled it but I did a reply email back to Ford (from their...

I keep hearing that old Eagles song - can't get it out of my head since I read this post. "Oh no, pretty mama, what you gonna do in those shoes?"

Amen and Amen. Even Mossy Oak Camouflage or Leopard seat covers are an improvement! People who bought an XLT want leather. People who bought a Lariat want a XLT color or at least a FITS Barf Bag. Of course, next model year they will make some "upgrades". I am planning to talk to my daughter's...

BTW - 12 -16 Week Lead time on those shoes!

It just means the dealers are allocated so many vehicles, mostly due to high demand. I have no idea what their allocations are but sold vehicles count against their allocation. So if Ford limits each dealer to (10) vehicles a month and they have sold (4), they probably have ordered (6) more for...

Front window tint is the first thing on my list. I was planning to beat up the dealer and see if they will throw it in for free. Most of them do window tinting. There was not much negotiation buying a pre-production vehicle so maybe they will. If not, there are some good tint shops around. I ask...

Hey it comes with it - use it and you can always get a folding one later on. It's good for covering anything you are hauling here and there. Like luggage on a trip. I need to see your rig when you get it - that Rapid Red is awesome! Worth the wait and very unique.

I agree - it seems to be a match up well with XLT and Lariat interiors. The Midnight Blue looks like black at night until you get close to it or roll under a streetlight. And yes, the clean look was my reason for choosing Velocity originally.

I have had great success with sheepskin seat covers on a couple of vehicles. It wraps the entire seat back very snugly. They are surprisingly cool in summer and warm in winter. But they are expensive. I think the last time I bought a pair they were about $275 each. Worth every dime. You can...
