I asked my brother what he thought about his new Maverick Lariat. He said, I'm going to have to make some changes to the seat. He said I know I won't be able to go far with the way it is. I believe that pretty well sums it up, when the report of a new vehicle has got to be changes for it to work?

Yes , I should have stated that. My Bad. For me, there is no draw to the Maverick except the Hybrid.

There's no question about this statement. The SC has missed the boat with the lack of a Hybrid. However, there's one other issue that everybody seems to over look. That is the fact that I have been able to get SCs, which I have gotten two off. While the closest I've gotten to a Maverick is being...

I can tell you that I have ordered dozens of Ford Trucks over the years. I am used to waiting 3 to 4 months, and that is no problem. This Maverick feasco is nothing but non-sence BS. As has been said in various other posts here. It is plain and simple poor management all the way around. They are...

I waste a lot of money on a lot of things, But, warranties are not one of them. I have to go through telling every dealer the same thing NO.

There are several things that should be done different when driving a DCT transmission. This link shows a few. https://karwoodmotorsports.com/2016/09/02/tips-for-driving-a-dual-clutch-transmission-so-you-dont-destroy-it/ Since most people don't realize there is a difference between DCT type and...

I did a little research, and you indicated your Kia Selto had the same DCT transmission as the Santa Cruz turbos have. That's not correct, the Selto has a dry type DCT for smaller torque engines, while the SC has a much stronger wet type DCT for larger torque engines. However, having said that...

Very well said. I'm impressed when someone states facts and not opinions. I have researched the DCT transmission problems in the high tier turbo models of the SC. Most of these problems with heat of the clutch packs are caused by operators that are not familiar with the DCT proper operation...

I actually quite like the DCT transmission. I had heard some bad things about it. However, I have had other DCT transmissions. While they are not all great, many of them are. It's really kind of an advanced concept. If they are built correctly, they are better than the normal (as we know it)...

That is a logical question. I suppose there are several answers, when I ordered the Maverick 9 months ago. I didn't know what I know now. I bought my first SC at that time to test the water. I like to know first hand what the differences are between vehicles. Since I didn't fully like the low...

It's your loss. I have the Santa Cruz SEL Premium, and I had a SC SEL before that. The non-Turbo engine is just a little under powered for the Rockies. The 2.5T is a power house and gets better mileage than the non-turbo. But, as indicated above, there is no comparison between the SC and a...

I've submitted the info for my Lariat Hybrid. :unsure:
