  1. First Truck, do I need a spray in liner?

    HF makes a couple different thick rubber mats. I have a patio area that I put four of them down on. I had to cut them with a fine tooth jig saw.
  2. How does the Hybrid Maverick 2.5 compare to 2019 Accord 2.0 hybrid?

    Where the rubber meets the road is each individual's driving habits, state of engine tune and locality. I'm expecting high 30's for mileage, but I will tow the Maverick 3-5k and drive it 6-7k a year, so mileage is not a significant factor. if only the MH got 40 mpg, it gets 6-8, and the 8 is...
  3. How does the Hybrid Maverick 2.5 compare to 2019 Accord 2.0 hybrid?

    I'm not worried. Yes it is. One speed direct drive transmission. As I stated in my other thread my primary reasons to buy the Maverick are that it fits in my garage, hauls my dogs, is flat towable behind our MH and occasionally I need a truck to haul stuff I do not want to haul in the car...
  4. First Truck, do I need a spray in liner?

    Just a painted bed, stuff will slide all over the place. Scratches, dings and dents are inevitable. A bed mat is a good option if you only haul stuff like mulch, fertilizer and stuff that doesn't scratch. Drop in liner is a good low cost option. it will rub on the paint and eventually you...
  5. Price gouging dealership

    My dealer gave me a signed buyers order and no deposit. The dealer also has this Maverick on the lot for sale. New 2022 Ford Maverick For Sale at Phil Brannen Ford of Perry | VIN: 3FTTW8F96NRA01323
  6. Hybrid Maverick Modifications?

    Sorry, someone stated they drove 50k a year.
  7. Hybrid Maverick Modifications?

    Hot-rodding today is not hot-rodding 10-20-30-40-50 years ago. A hybrid is not a hot rod and never will be, at least in the configuration that is being built now. If you want performance and economy, the Mustang Mach-E is the way to go. Anyone who tries to modify a hybrid for performance will...
  8. Maverick vs. Ranger

    What cab is the Ranger? The STX is an excellent value package.
  9. Full Size Spare is smaller size than other factory tires?

    Where does the spare tire stow? Is there room for a larger tire?
  10. XLT or LARIAT?

    We were poor when I was a kid. In 66 my dad bought a used 65 Olds Vista Cruiser. We lived in Tucson and it had AC. That was luxury. I ordered the XL then changed it to an XLT the next day. that's fancy enough for me.
  11. Maverick or Tacoma

    Tacoma has a proven track record. If you can afford it, that may be a better option for you. Resale is excellent. I disagree that the only thing going for the Maverick is mileage and price. I have been waiting a long time for something like this. I occasionally need a truck but mostly need...
  12. Fords choice of Maverick as a name

    Will Chevy bring the El Camino back? Having owned two Mavericks, I like the Maverick name and am glad Ford chose to bring it back from the dead. Ranchero would have been fine too. I had my 71 Maverick and the Ford dealer had a new Maverick Stallion on the lot just like this one. I wanted...
  13. Hybrid Maverick Modifications?

    The OP states that he drives 50k a year. At the end of a typical 5 year finance contract he will have 250k on his Maverick. Most of us will have 75k +/-. I will have less than 50k.
  14. No Maverick scheduling next week 11/1

    Economics 101: In manufacturing there are fixed and variable costs. Fixed costs remain the same, regardless of the amount produced. ex: Leases, insurance, interest, security, salaries, property taxes, fixed contracts ect. Fixed costs rarely change since they must be paid if the factory...
  15. How does the Hybrid Maverick 2.5 compare to 2019 Accord 2.0 hybrid?

    My wife commutes to and from work, four days a week, 7.5 months a year. Speed limit 45-55mph. The Accord is rarely on the interstate. I am going to fill it up tomorrow and then again next Sunday and check the mileage. It takes mid-grade which is running .25 gal more than regular. Her Accord...
  16. Hybrid Maverick Modifications?

    If you drive a lot of miles the real number you should be trying to reduce is cost per mile. I bought a used 2003 Civic with 197k on it for $2500 and ran up another 200k before it was wrecked. Low acquisition cost, low insurance, low maintenance cost and 39 mpg. Even with todays inflated...
  17. College Football

    My family is from Oklahoma so I am an OU fan. My wife graduated from the University of Tennessee. At least we will be in the same conference. I like how the AP has snuck Alabama back into the #3 slot. Cinn doesn't stand a chance and the powers that be are itching to have Alabama in the title...
  18. Putting Stickers on your Truck

    Nice Rage, for me I would drop the Tomcat and extend the vinyl to the leading edge of the hood. Don't want to be a copycat.
  19. How does the Hybrid Maverick 2.5 compare to 2019 Accord 2.0 hybrid?

    I have not figured the Accords mileage, I have only been in it a couple times in the two years we have owned it. I'm going off the dash display that it is getting 45-ish mpg. I'm going to figure it the next couple times we fill it up. The day after Thanksgiving we will have owned it 2 years...
  20. Price gouging dealership

    Georgia changed it's vehicle tax laws several years ago to be more competitive with Florida in attracting new residents. There is no Georgia sales tax on vehicles. There is a one time Title Ad Valorem Tax of 6.6% when you purchase the vehicle, then an annual $22.50 tag fee. Georgia does not...
