I ordered my 22xl 2.0 in January of 22 and it came in December of 2022 and installed many aftermarket mods. I got tires and rims off of marketplace and used one of my tires and steelies as a spare tire. A full size spare is a good upgrade.
I have a 22 2.0 Maverick and a 24 2.3 Ranger, both are great for different jobs and I enjoy driving both. If I had to choose between I would have to choose my Ranger because of capability. My boat weighs 6,400 lbs and no maverick can pull that.
I used a windshield repair kit from wall-mart. The chip happened back in April, so it's been six months and the repair is still holding. The winter will be the big test.
You had a much worse experience then i did,Yes I put down a $100 refundable deposit but I felt good about getting a new truck that everyone wanted and no else had. The anticipation made the deliver all that more sweet.
