Difference of opinion respected:
Iām happy with the ride on my 24 FX4 Mav, comparatively speaking.
My other truck is a 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4. When the sun is low in the sky and phone poles cast shadows across the road, I can feel the bumps when I drive over the shadows at 55mph...
IMHO: I would absolutely unwind that deal if I were you.
I would start by talking to the CU and closing the loan by giving them their check back. You may pay a tiny bit of interest but they wonāt have a problem with it.
Simple interest loans=pay them off whenever you like without a...
I just got insurance on my new 2024 Mav with the 'Lizard company' = $314 / 6 mo.
Full coverage with comp & Collision deductibles of $500
Tow, Roadside Assist, Rent Car.
My 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, with 211,000 mi, insured with StFarm = $460 / 6mo.
Identical coverage.
So no...
Getting that chip on your drive home from the dealership certainly sucks and I can empathize with you. On December 27th I drove my new Maverick out of the dealership and stopped right outside the entrance to check if they put a paper tag on it. When I walked back to the driver door I noticed...
Has anyone else noticed that no one who has responded to this thread so far have made any attempt at actually answering the OPās question?

Sorry Frenchy. I have no productive answer for you. I also wish...
Wait,
The date on the hand printer sign in the picture says 12/2/2025.
Do you have the Time Inverter option button on your Maverick and were able to travel 11 months into the future to list the tires for sale?
ā¦damn, I wish I would of gotten that option on Lariat.
:teehee:
I love the Terrain color of my new 2024 Mav.
Whatās odd is that I can ask others what color they see and they give me several different answers; putty grey, tan, palomino, beige, light yellow and even white. It all depends on the light hitting it and what itās parked next to.
It seems to...
I got the same bed cover that NM Bob did less than a week ago and I love it.

Saving Hundreds of $$ over buying a high end hard cover, when this one looks and performs great, goes a long way toward buying gas for your...
You are exactly right. Dealer Invoice is basically what the Dealer pays for it, which is way less than MSRP (sticker).
Many people on this forum use the term "Invoice price" incorrectly.
No dealer is going to sell you a 2025 vehicle at dead invoice. If they did, they would go out of...
I will add that I used to work at a Dodge truck dealership, in both the Sales and F&I dept. My wife was a Service Writer in the Service Dept. The service guys loved when people came in who had a warranty. They were able to find a lot of things that were less than perfect with a vehicle, R&R...
Extended warranties are similar to home owners insurance policies in that you rarely use it but when you need to, it can save you a butt ton of money out of your pocket. You are really purchasing Peace of Mind. If you are risk-averse, you should consider buying one. If you donāt mind the...
The Lariat I bought off the lot over Christmas has a pwr sliding rear window.
May be useful to pitch empty beer cans out of but not much else.
Itās tiny. I think Ford should put a switch behind the center console so the rear passengers could use it, since the slider is right behind their ear.
Hey MakinDoForNow,
I was just chatting with the AI on the Floodfordesp.com website and asked about that, because I also live in Texas. Here was the answer:
The tow hitch is the perfect place to pull from and with. Itās actually a better spot than from one of the tow hooks on the front.
You might consider keeping a long tow strap with you. If you buy one keep in mind that there are two different kinds:
Nylon strap = stretches under a load...
Something the average buyer never knows:
Keep in mind that even if a dealer sells you a vehicle at dead invoice price (his price, which is way below MSRP) he is still going to make 3% from the manufacture in what is known as Hold Back.
Hold Back credit is commonly used by the dealership to...
