That's pretty funny... I actually bought a Maverick because I like the looks, the ride is way better than the "full size" trucks I previously owned, and I like the interior – at least the interior on my Lariat... Finally, I like it because I can haul pretty much anything I need to haul (Home...

Well, I've only had mine for 3 1/2 months and ~4K miles... But I've had zero issues with it, and (for me) it's been worth the the markup I paid above MSRP. As things stand today, neither of my two hybrids trucks have been selected to be built - and at this rate, they may not get built...

Um... I lived in Houston for 16 years. Have you forgotten that a week is a full seven (7) days long? I can't remember more than a couple of days a year that it wasn't either steaming or freezing - sometimes both on the same day! 😉

And the original VW Golf / Polo / Scirocco. (Some examples that didn't suck...)

Hauled home six big bags of garden soil, two large bags of mulch, and two small bags of perlite from Home Depot. It is SO much easier to load stuff into this truck than it was to load my C-2500 HD... Especially appreciated since my wife and I are both recovering from the flu, and still a bit...

Hitch receivers and wiring are both made of "unobtanium" - a rare mineral that is only available from one individual's secret mine in Cambodia - and he only mines it Tue-Thu of odd-numbered weeks. The rest of the time he's hanging out on MTC, creating "why are trailer hitches constrained" memes...

Don't know about the OP, but I want the Sync3 updates to "automatically" update as Ford claims they will... So far, I'm 0 for 3... Had to do all three updates via USB stick.

That's pretty damn fast, considering all the folks on here who ordered early in 22 and still don't have their trucks...

You'd think so, right? And maybe it is, but every time I go into it, it acts as though it's not connected... (Hybrid Latiat/Lux First Edition)

Good luck to you! The hybrid is a tougher "get" than anything else, but I'm holding out for one as well.

And do you truly believe that in 10 years, the price of gasoline will still be $3.40 per gallon? (And don't you California folks WISH that was the price you paid for gas?) A few weeks with gas at nearly $5 per gallon here in Texas was enough to convince me that the Hybrid was the way to go...

You DO know that Maverick was a movie about Naval flight operations, right?

My two favorite vanity plates: On the back of a Ferrari: IXLR8 On the back of an Aston-Martin: TKUPNWBR

In all seriousness, dude: Thanks for your service. Vietnam vets definitely caught the short end of the straw. I entered the Army in 1976, just after Vietnam wound down. I served with a lot of Vietnam veterans, and watched how others were treated in public and private. Talk about the...

I bought a Maverick locally that was a rejected order. The dealer told me exactly why: The truck had the air bag recall, Ford had no parts, and it sat for months at the dealership unable to be sold. When the parts finally came in, and they had it ready to go, he (or she) had already replaced...

Exactly! That is what a dealership is, my friend. Ford doesn't have showrooms - dealers do. Ford doesn't have service departments - dealers do. Ford doesn't sell vehicles to consumers - dealers do. I inserted what I believe to be a couple of important points (in bold red italics) in your...

I have one, but I do NOT leave it in the receiver. I keep it under the back seat. I have busted my shins one too many times on that darn thing! It hurts. A LOT!

That's pretty cool, all right. I was thrilled a few weeks ago when I came back out to the parking lot and found another Maverick parked right next to mine. The driver came out just as I was unlocking, and we talked for a while. Hers (actually her son's) was a Cactus Gray XLT. First time I've...

They work very well... I "tested" them just yesterday, when the drive-through kid handed me three sodas in plastic glasses at the same time, and had overflowed them so they were wet on the outside. Miraculously, two remained in my hands. The 3rd one hit the floor and popped open. The...

In a nutshell, the keypad doesn't work, and the garage opener is a brand that I can no longer find parts for. If/when it dies, we will replace it, but for now it still works OK. TLDR version: The garage is always the first place we enter to unload groceries, etc. More detailed answer...
