That's definite frame damage. You can compare here - It is certainly salvagable for that. But, seeing as that is a truck bed, and not a passenger compartment, it is repairable and would likely remain rather safe. In the video I linked above, you'll see that the rear of the vehicle is...

No, you need a tow hitch. It fits in the 2" hitch receiver instead of a ball hitch.

If people are worried about rust, Blaster Surface Shield is only $10/can at Home Depot. 4-5 cans every two years, and you're set.

A good portion of Americans buying Mavericks are doing it as their first outdoors vehicles. Hard to be outdoors as a family when half of the passenger compartment is useless when hauling. America has a unique geographic landscape. We can never get enough storage; it is why cars are going the...

Apparently the hard rollup has some leaking/moisture pooling issues (even using the drain tubes). And given that you live where it snows so much, I’d opt for the trifold if I had to. Trifold is also easier to remove. I’m personally going to spend a bit extra and opt for the Diamondback. They...

Ian is making land as a category 4 it seems. I’d get the hell out… even if you survive the storm, power will most certainly be out for an extended period time for most of the state. Being in Houston, I know first hand that the heat and humidity after a hurricane can be unbearable... I’d bounce...

Green hasn’t been a popular car color in the US for nearly two decades. Also, many car enthusiasts swear off green because of green race car superstitions.

Even with the mid gate, that bed is way too short for the US market. VW’s brand still struggles state-side due to the fuel mileage debacle… their resell values are still rock bottom here.

The competition is coming, but you have to also look at the market segment. There is very little profit margin to be made on the Maverick, so competitors aren’t flocking to compete with it. Toyota will no-doubt enter the market, but at substantially higher margins. Nissan is another brand...

The problem is finding another affordable vehicle in those 6 months. I’ve been looking for a vehicle for over a year - and can’t find one because I refuse to pay more than they are worth. Used trucks especially sell for their new price right now, it is wild… and the recession hasn’t seemed to...

Taco holder is the only acceptable answer.

Pass on fake carbon fiber. Flat or matte black, maybe with a rubberized texture would be great.

Check out the underside view video from Munro on YouTube - In it, you can get a good look at the construction of the rear end. I’d be interested in seeing if your spare tire was punctured by the safety device under the bed. The spare tire location is a quick/easy indicator of just how much...

The Maverick’s ground clearance is less than 9”. That means at 12” your stream is already approaching the door entry. Good luck with that.

Wow, amazing write up!

Stay safe out there, FL.

After watching the past few live streams, it is clear that it must be extremely frustrating to be a Ford dealer. Ford changes things on a whim, and contradicts itself so often it must be maddening.

I’d take any numbers you hear with a grain of salt. If Ford has shown us anything, it is that they can and regularly do literally change everything on a whim.

Oh you sweet innocent child. Ford is gonna Ford.
