Dealer called me, said the hard tri fold would delay things.
Had it removed, I hope! Went with it, as I liked the look.
Didn't care for a soft cover, as I have something similar
on my Ranger now. And do NOT like the looks of the roll up!
As for daytime security, I'm in view of my truck all day...
Ordered June 24. Dropped splash guards at
that time, since dealer said they would delay build.
Order confirmed by Ford, by the time I got home.
Got call, from dealer later, saying hard tri fold tonneau would delay things!
Was also told I had a PC 2 at one point. Not sure if they dropped...
Was not really planning to buy a new vehicle!
Dad emailed me the link for the Maverick, so I
started looking into it. Was able to build the truck that I wanted
with the features I wanted, that was actually affordable!
What I really liked, was the estimated 40MPG, would save a bit
on gas, over...
First Maverick, 4th truck.
Could have bought one from
neighbors, years ago. Ugly yellow, needing body work.
For a whopping $400.
Wasnāt earning enough money then, to be able to do any sort of restoration work on it.
While I donāt have a SO to deal with, I have my folks to deal with! But, I went through them first, about me getting a new truck. They said Itās my money, do what makes ME happy.
Mom says itāll be strange going out to garage, and thereās a different style/color truck in there!
Got a call from dealer yesterday, telling me the tonneau cover was going to delay my build.
Stopped in today, to check on changes, but BOTH individuals with Maverick knowledge, were NOT in today! And since they're both closing tomorrow, I'm gonna stop in after dialysis.
Does anyone know if the...
Placed reservation, and maybe 2 weeks later, got notice from dealer. Went in, placed order and got confirmation same day, when I eventually got home! Only thing I did, was drop the delayed splash guards at the time. Now, it looks as if the hard trifold tonneau cover is gonna slow things down...
After reading this, Iām thinking about a custom set of
magnetic decals. About the size of a standard sheet of
paper, stating: Moffat Edition.
Sticking them to the rear, by the tailgate, for those times I decide to make the trip up to Moffat Tunnel, on the former Rio Grande Railroad, between...
Have not really see the interior of the XL and Lariat.
Guess Iād be neutral on those. Voted neutral on the XLT, but I donāt hate it, donāt love t, but like it. Would vote that, if the option was there.
Maybe a 2 tone matching interior, for the various colors would be nice, someday! JMO.
Along the same lines, are halogen tail lights on all models?
Or would the Lariat trim come with LED tail lights?
And are headlights/tail lights the same on all models?
Wondering, as Iād consider changing to Lariat head/tail lights once available as separate parts. Or at least upgrade to LED...
This is about as close as I could get! A brand new metallic blue FaTteBike. Picked up 3 1/2 weeks ago. Got the last of my safety gear Saturday. So now I can start riding more. Hope to ride to dialysis 3X a week for a bit. Safe a little on gas anyway! A test ride showed in May only take 2 minutes...
I ordered one. Never had one. But, since this is my first brand new vehicle, I was gonna get the options I wanted!
Although, I probably wonāt have the chance to use it until next spring! By the time my truck is scheduled and eventually arrives!
Not sure about a name.
First song I play? Probably Alabama: Sunday Drive
In the 4 vehicles Iāve owned, since I started driving, this will be my first brand new vehicle, and my 4th truck!
Not that it matters, but previous vehicles were:
1978 Ford Fairmont
1984 Toyota 4x4
1987 Toyota 4x2, bought...
Ordered an XLT, LUX. Lariat is a bit out of my price range.
SXM, while not necessary, might be a nice alternative
to radio, or USB. Maybe in areas, if on a trip, where radio
reception might be spotty at best! But, because of kidney
dialysis, Iām not exactly able to escape humanity for a short...
Do any of these apps use data, when using with a smart phone?
Asking, only because I do NOT have a smartphone. Yet! Just a basic
flip phone, for calls, or text messages. But, looking to get a second hand
smartphone, just for use with my truck, whenever it arrives.
What about something like...
Temporary estimate, when I asked, is about $37 more a month.
Just under $100 overall. Waiting for crash test result first, before a
definitive answer can be had. I was thinking even higher than that!
So, if itās only around $100, I aināt gonna complain!!
52. Maybe 53, depending on when my order arrives.
Had an 84 Toyota 4x4, an 87 Toyota 4x2 that I bought
from Dad and my current 01 Ranger. This will be my
first brand new vehicle! I figure after this many years, its
time I treated myself to a new vehicle.
Velocity Blue XLT hybrid, Lux, Co...
Local dealer sent it in on June 24.
Theyāre stating I might have it by the end of Sept, first of Oct.
Not too overly concerned as to when it arrives.
