If Ford were to manufacturer a vehicle like a Maverick in the USA it would have an expensive upgraded interior and advanced electronics (which Americans tend to purchase). Its motor would not be manufactured in Mexico nor their labor to produce it. The bottom line….it would cost more and other...

When ordering the XL I specifically requested the BLIS which came with remote mirror adjustment and their “regular“ size spare tire.

Mine broke too. Ford wanted $26 for that part. I went to the local hardware store and purchased a plastic rivet (90 cents) and reinstalled it.

The gas motor is of Atkinson design with the intake valve timing delayed for fuel economy. Therefore, you’ll have limited power without its counterpart (electrical battery) which drastically affects the miles per hour. At least that is my understanding.

I believe Ford advertised this vehicle using young attractive active looking people. You (the truck buyer), watching those ads somehow associated with Ford’s “idealized” promotions and bought their product. Urban or rural Ford cast their advertising net as far and as wide to put you in that...

Spring has “sprung”. I (“carefully”) use a single edge razor blade to get the worst ones off the glass.

No “CC” in 22 on xl’s, it was added (standard) on 23’s.

The xl’s in 22 did not include “sound dampeners “ in front fender wells. I later added them and have the scars to prove it.

Two cats: Lewis & Clark.

Drive the vehicle at a sensible speed and be discerning driving off road.

Even if the truck (hybrid-XL) “hauls air” and, was purchased in 2022 @$20k, it still cost lower than a hybrid car. It works and plays for ideal versatility. I did add the co-pilot option and floor mats at time of purchase. No regrets.

I generally configure my average by fuel consumed into mileage and not by the display. 42-45 mpg

I purchased the XL in July of 21 and it arrived March of 22. The interior look was grey and black . The XLT had the grey and orange interior details that didn’t suit my color taste. The hybrid @$20K was unbeatable and my son got my 02 single cab Tacoma (assembled in California). Paid cash and...

Looks great!

Mud flaps and left and right sound insulation panels (not included on 22 xl models).

Push out broken rivet and find one comparable at hardware store and reinstall. Easy fix (Ford OEM $25.). Glue if necessary.

When I lived near a nuclear plant the phone book (remember those) printed emergency numbers and a statement to have a full tank of gas. Locally there are fires, flooding, and earthquakes. I always keep the tank full.

I see the manufacture did not include the hybrid badge on the tailgate.

I’m an original xl purchaser and Was at the Ford dealership 3 days after it’s internet posting. The vehicular had lots of extra for less than $20k (especially phone adaptations). It was a “no brainer” especially the hybrid model. I suppose I’m with the first category. I still believe the xl...

My XL started that annoying habit last week. Interesting that others are in a similar plight.
