  1. Honda/Toyota buyers seeing the "Light"??

    Not really fair to compare the Maverick to either of those, particularly the Prius. There's a large difference in power and aerodynamics. Now that the new 2023 Prius has 194-196HP (and is expected to also average 57) and the new Prius Prime is at 220, I'm planning to order one. I suspect they...
  2. Honda/Toyota buyers seeing the "Light"??

    To be fair, the XL I owned had less squeaks/rattles than this Lariat. Some of it could be that it was warm then and is cold now. The Lariat also has a stiffer ride than the XL.
  3. Lariat trim, worth it?

    The Kicks was barely adequate around town. Hopefully you'll get your Mavericks.
  4. Lariat trim, worth it?

    Yes... h/k, JBL, Infinity, Mark Levinson, B&O.. they own many of the premium systems you see in cars from $20k to six figures. But that doesn't make them all on the same level.
  5. Lariat trim, worth it?

    There are other alternative hybrids, and with AWD, for around the same price as a fully loaded Maverick hybrid. But they are not trucks. I only listed off a few SUVs. If you needed more people space you could also look at Camry Hybrids.. excellent fuel efficiency and plenty of space.
  6. Honda/Toyota buyers seeing the "Light"??

    Take a trip to your local dealer and park your Maverick beside one of these. Open/close doors. Sit in the seats. Check out the panel gaps. Operate the switchgear. You and I have different ideas of what build quality means. You are obviously OK with anything that is functional. I have higher...
  7. Lariat trim, worth it?

    Too small for cargo or people? The Nissan Kicks passenger space, particularly in the rear, seems superior to the Maverick. I don't endorse the idea of buying a Kicks but I did rent one for 4 months. It's not a great vehicle but has good room and seat comfort front/back for people. As for other...
  8. Honda/Toyota buyers seeing the "Light"??

    I'm not sure what you even mean by this comment. I've got experience with the Maverick XL EB, the Maverick Lariat Hybrid, a low trim Corolla and a top spec Civic. I gave you my thoughts on each. The Maverick's cheap interior plastics squeak/rattle more than any other new vehicle I've ever owned...
  9. Cheap auto-dimming, homelink mirror

    It's speculation, but the Lariat does have ambient lighting that the XLT does not. Perhaps that's why the only people reporting issues with this are Lariat owners that I can find?
  10. Debating Maverick AWD now or hybrid later

    Por que no los dos? Buy the AWD EB now and trade it later for the hybrid.
  11. Lariat trim, worth it?

    I'll have to try increasing the distance. I've had many ACC cars, and none of them truly operate like a human but this one is the worst in stop-and-go.
  12. Lariat trim, worth it?

    I know the Maverick can do stop-and-go with ACC, but yours does this smoothly? Mine is basically unusable for this purpose. Way, way too jerky with braking.
  13. Lariat trim, worth it?

    What are your comparison vehicles? The truly standout systems my husband and I have owned over the years have been, in no particular order - the (really stunning for the price) ELS 3D system in our Integra, a Mark Levinson system in a Lexus ES, a Lexicon system in a Genesis, and a...
  14. Honda/Toyota buyers seeing the "Light"??

    I don't mean for this to sound snarky, but what does "build quality" mean to you? Is it about everything working? Because to me there's more to it than that. I've elaborated more on this in other places, but as my parents enter retirement we've put them in two of the Maverick's common...
  15. Lariat trim, worth it?

    Agreed 100%. I gave you my honest opinion that was not flattering to the truck, but take that with a grain of salt - most people here absolutely love the thing.
  16. Lariat trim, worth it?

    I have owned a Lariat Lux for almost 1 month. I owned an XL for a month. Here is my take: 1 - I was under the impression the XL and Lariat seats were the same structurally and padding wise - just skinned differently. I am not convinced of that now. I prefer the seats in the XL. The Lariat is...
  17. Cold temperature fuel efficacy drop Hybrid?

    Why would a non-hybrid make more sense just because the hybrid loses some efficiency in cold weather or at highway speeds? For early orders, the hybrid was automatically $1100 cheaper. As I noted earlier in the thread, my Lariat Lux is averaging 33.9mpg over 3,700 miles and in conditions that...
  18. Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) FORScan mod (confirmed working)

    I believe Nick took care of that, but I will do.
  19. Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) FORScan mod (confirmed working)

    For me I had to change a code in the AS BUILT as well as changing a setting in the easy, plain text mode. So I would say yes.
  20. Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) FORScan mod (confirmed working)

    The codes are in the ones with "AS BUILT" beside them.
