It does seem like a baby, LOL! July 14th order + 9mons = April 15th. April 25th is what Ford expected for delivery but mine is still in Shipped status. Dealer is looking out for it.

To those still waiting: WWYD? What Will You Do if this happens to you? I've decided to walk. If dealer demands markup, I'm going back to the (inflated) used truck market. Probably won't happen to me b/c many folks ordered with just a self-signed DORA but I have a dealer countersigned...

Right! I tell Finance upfront that I can pay in cash, so what deal do they want to make? Not really. Summer '21 MSRP for Hybrid XLT = $22,280. Dest & Delivery = $1,495. Assuming Utah tax of 6.85% = $25,404. Probably some doc fees too to get that OTD price -- $600 is not far off. But I...

Yup, b/c other Mav owners on here have said they've rolled away just fine after the Trailer fix. I'm one of those computer nerds, and my take is most techs would rather work on lowering / lifting this truck than waste their time reprogramming modules. o_O Computer changes are in the mind --...

CSX and UP are struggling to keep up with demand. https://www.freightwaves.com/news/up-defends-precision-scheduled-railroading-amid-service-struggles https://www.freightwaves.com/news/csx-says-adding-more-engineers-and-conductors-will-improve-service Both railroads are hiring. Who else...

June & July orders. Did you get an email from Ford? A blurb from that email is in this thread: https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/update-on-free-ford-fits-accessory-kit-availability-for-delayed-hybrid-maverick-delivery.6952/ Evidently Hybrids ordered in June & July got that ^...

Also, those tailgate bike pads rub against the paint, so anything the flies up in-between the tailgate & pad (like dirt) will be rubbing & scratching. I'm no waxer -- I don't detail my cars even -- but as much as folks worry about scratches, I'm surprised how popular these bike pads are. A...

Same. I grabbed a used Colorado "Minimax" (the 4cyl diesel) this past fall. It doesn't have as much torque as the Big Duramax -- just 370 ft lb -- but very happy with the little diesels consistent 30+ MPG on our long haul road trips. And real towing #s. Prices started to go crazy on my...

Theft?! Never had anyone steal my car/truck, or anything in it. I've lived in both "unsafe" Big City with streetside parking & gunshots fired @ night, and "safe" Big Country with druggies & shotguns. Never had anything stolen. Some douchebag did puncture my tires for parking in front of their...

Yes, and no. The problem seems to be this line in the email: "but the DORA is not an invoice" The OP should come right out and say his OTD (Out The Door) price is $N above the DORA. But this is all a moot complaint anyways. The dealer is _right_. DORA is nothing. I've been saying this...

Should the recalls be listed here too? Some may say the recalls are official and tracked by Ford already, but they are still "issues" and the spreadsheet is an issue compilation.

:grabs popcorn: 🍿 Ahhh, the ol MPG debate again 😄 Why stop at unrealistic driving behavior? Pulse & glide -- yea yea, lots of hypermiling techniques out there. On the flip side, there's been folks saying that driving _faster_ means better MPGs, and so they drive faster! Sounds like C&D...

Volt driver here too. The Mav hybrid is completely different than the Volt hybrid setup. You may already know that but just wanted to be clear: there's no driving 35+miles on battery with the Mav. I'm also completely sold on PHEVs -- plugin hybrids that have large batteries. Nay sayers say...

Sounds normal. If you DON'T buy anything from Ford / dealer, their marketing gurus will fill your Inbox with Daily Deals. When you DO buy something from Ford / dealer, you hear crickets. 🤐 I got 0 emails about my deposit or order. Many did not; we've all gotten the silent treatment. There are...

That is a beauty. Black is hard to look that clean. I had a '99 too. The 4.0L Cologne XLT in dark green. My Dad got it for me when I went back to college (well I made payments but had bad credit back then). Salvage title and still had 0 issues. I drove it until Ford released the Hybrid Escape...

There's 0 mention of hybrid or EV for the Ranger news ... not sure where folks assumed the 6th Gen Ranger would get either. So Jim Farley will keep selling diesels to the Aussies but not to Americans? And 3 diesel options for the Aussies at that! Lucky bastards. The only diesel...

Everything is quieter than a Jeep Wrangler soft top. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" is the soft top motto. Aka. no talking while driving. So happy to have sold my Wrangler to Vroom. They offered a lot of $$$.

Ouch, that hurts. 2nd year?! Will MY22 orders (especially Hybrids) getting delayed be upgraded to Rattler at 0 cost? :P

I had an Aliner LXE for 5 years and it NEVER leaked, so this is FUD. Agree with @Edge Haley : any RV with holes / seams will need recaulking. Also, prices are high so shop around. We bought our Aliner in 2017 for $18k. It lists for $25k now and is hard to find, so there's no reason for a...

Totally agree. I had clapped for us here in the forum possible be part of pushing for that official communication. Not clapping about a '22 delivery.
