As I pointed out earlier even at 0.9% you would be ahead. You're borrowing money at 0% in 2022 dollars we have just entered a era of hyperinflation you will be paying them back in 2024 dollars for you which will buy you about 80 cents on the dollar. I agree with some of the earlier subscribers I...

Well hello and welcome to the club! I have a new MaverickXL hybrid I'm selling my 2013 Tacoma prerunner and previous to that I owned a Ford ranger 4x4 and I live in the high desert so we may have a few things in common! Hope you enjoy your new truck as much as I am enjoying mine. I've done a few...

Welcome to The forum. What I like most about the Maverick club is that for the most part people are very friendly and non-judgmental. They are also very open with advice and with DYI instructions on how to modify your vehicle. Basically a great bunch of people! I really enjoy hanging out and I...

Congratulations! Beautiful truck! Really really like the color, love the wheels. Good job! Enjoy it the more you drive it the more you will like it. And most of all welcome to the Maverick club.

Beautiful truck! Very tastefully done, love the wheels and the tonneau cover. I have another vehicle in the same cyber orange color I get compliments on it all the time so get used to people going crazy over your truck! Congratulations drive it and enjoy it I'm enjoying the hell out of mine and...

Congratulations on your new Maverick! I ordered one in iconic silver metallic and I love it. GM actually originally came out with that color they called it Daytona sunset orange metallic it debuted on the 2006 Corvette of which I have one. They made 550 of the convertible in that color. I have...

Would have to agree with the lack of cruise control on the XL, in fact when my daughter drove it she was absolutely amazed - she said I didn't know they made a vehicle without cruise control - LOL fortunately I found the Maverick club link describing the swap steering wheel procedure for a 2020...

I went with basic XL trim in the charcoal / black cloth. I was seriously considering ordering an XLT but the various color combinations made me wonder what type of acid the interior designers were taking and where I could possibly buy some LOL I don't think I've seen anything uglier since the...

I have owned a 2013 Toyota Tacoma for several years. Apologies to Toyota but what do I like about the Maverick? Damn near everything. I am not a Ford devotee in fact I worked for General Motors for 17 years the Maverick is roomier than my Tacoma, more user-friendly than my Tacoma, gets way...

I was in the automobile business for 27 years. I was there for the launch of the 1980 Chevy citation which was supposed to be the vehicle of the future. I think anybody that was alive then knows how that came out LOL. Trust me the industry has come a long way. Starting with CAD and going all the...

PS I have heard that color described by many people in many different names my favorite was a group of Harley-Davidson riders at a local bike shop who called it peanut butter metallic

I have a Corvette in that color which GM came out with in 2006 they called it Daytona sunset orange metallic. I get stopped by people all the time going completely ape shit over the color! Did not select the color when I originally bought the vehicle but have learned to love it! Plus my wife...

For a truck with that amount of equipment - you stole it dude! Here in lovely Los Angeles California they are marking those things up at $15,000 over MSRP. And those are ones that are base XL with no equipment. Nobody likes paying over MSRP but in your case you did pretty damn good. Enjoy the...

There is of course a necessary metal machined gutter that runs around the edge of your moonroof. This can gather a sizeable amount of water plus the standing water that already existed on the roof before you engaged the retractor. A shower is completely normal with this type of roof. I can...

Congratulations! Or as Joe Walsh used to say - welcome to the club! I ordered my XL from a small town dealer in Bozeman Montana, I must agree that the small town dealers are the best! They treated me really good, no markup, no bullshit, truck exactly as I ordered it with trailer package, sliding...

Ok

As a former automobile industry executive I would have to agree that those shots are of a disguised Maverick prototype or something similar. It would make no sense economically for Ford to compete with themselves with another small truck , the new Ranger just barely came on the market and the...

As a former automobile sales manager for over 27 years I had the opportunity to order truck bodies and truck caps or is we used to call them utility bodies. Our primary provider was Harbor out of Los Angeles that we also used several other manufacturers including Fleetwood and skyline. My...

Keep in mind my driving style is pretty much pure Fred Flintstone - in other words mash throttle with right foot, when in big trouble open driver door and drag left foot LOL. But on a side to side mash the throttle test the Maverick more than holds it's own against the Tacoma

I find myself in the unique position of doing a head-on comparison. I've owned my Toyota Tacoma TRD for 4 years and although it clocks in at 245 horse it will barely match the Maverick on acceleration. Trust me I've done it more than once lol although the Maverick claims a mere 191 horsepower it...
