While I bought the hybrid maverick for me, my wife and I also looked at the bronco for her vehicle. Wait was too long. WE then found the new PHEV Jeep Wrangler 4xe. $7500 tax credit made the cost inline and actually cheaper than the non PHEV. Driving for free now for 4 weeks - only about 4...
after 6 weeks, I dont mind it. But I find myself turning the dial the wrong way on reverse. Be interested on how many others do this. Anyway, not a big deal, just annoying. Not sure how to fix that as prob not best to have a P inbetween D and R
yes, the other day I was in a drive through fast food and following the car in front of me. The brake response suddenly changed and didnt brake at all. I had to slam on the brake in panic and just missed hitting the car in front of me. I looked at my wife and said to be careful with this...
go to the Ford website and in the top right corner for dealer locations. I believe the bad dealerships have the ability to remove their reviews so they have 'no reviews'. we all know that is not true!
sorry for your experience - but I will wave to you as you sit and get gas and I drive by. good luck. I love my truck, most functional vehicle ever and averaging 42 so for mixed driving. wow!
while I think the "ford requires' need verification, it seems Planet Ford is a good dealership (rating from ford website). I noticed that the bad dealerships have no ratings...'hmmm'.
I use to have vw without air and the perfect combo was passenger rear down, sunroof vented. quiet, circulating air - was perfect. But the $800 for the sunroof was too much, just run the AC instead now because I cant afford to have the window down option that requires the sunroof. In all cars I...
I guess my experience was if I wanted an update, I would call Ford. the person I talked to was always polite and helpful - got good information for me. not always what I wanted to hear, but they were easy to call and didnt give me a 'canned response'. It was always detailed and specific. So...
received my hybrid about a month ago. averaging 42 mpg with mixed 45mph town and 60mph highway driving. with gas at over $5 gal, this is a big deal. However, if the majority of your driving is 75-80 mph interstate, then yep, diminished returns and reduced towing. took my 13 vw jetta into...
Its not ford, but managed through the dealership transparently. I drop off and get a loaner from the dealer. bumper to bumper - but not wear items, brakes, sheet metal. All mechanical and electrical is covered.
I hope this will weed out the bad actors. there are really good dealerships out there that put service and integrity above price gouging. Ford knows that. I think the most relevant comment made in the article is that "dealerships will have to evolve" "new standards will be brutal". The...
See C/D fun facts below - by the numbers - the Rivian has a little better accel:whistle:, but mav (hybrid) almost matches for top speed, does better in the corners, and can stop much quicker.
maverick (hybrid)
Rolling Start, 5–60 mph: 7.8 sec
Top Gear, 30–50 mph: 3.8 sec
Top Gear, 50–70 mph...
no one else with me, no one else would have survived. passenger bucket seat ended up in the back and passenger door where the stick shift was. I was up and walking, but was carried away with bleeding from pretty much everything inside. Rib cage took the brunt of the impact. Obviously had...
I bet is was and made it through to close to the final cut. But I can hear the meeting "y'all going to work weekends until we find $500 in costs to cut" Yeah, I think I would want my weekends back too.
your doing fine for non-hyper-mileage driving. similar to what I get as well. wind is wind and time is $. I drive with the traffic flow, and dont follow any rock throwers. I value my paint more than a few pennies saved in gas. You can't get a more functional vehicle with that gas mileage...
With so much coolant gone, I would be concerned about engine damage before you took ownership. Not sure if there is a hot test for the assembled truck or not. I would ask the dealer to pull all temp data from the engine to confirm no overheating. Otherwise, Ford should replace the engine for...
apparently history is doomed to repeat itself:
"Also, compared to the 2022 Ranger, the redesigned 2023 Ranger is slightly larger, with a 2-inch increase for both the wheelbase and track width. This size increase should improve the ride quality of the Ranger. "
