Can you lock/unlock and start/drive a 2024 Maverick XLT with a bare metal ignition key copy from a locksmith or hardware store? No key fob on board, just an old-school key?
Has anyone had experience with CP360, and also with the CP360 + Assist that is only available on Lariat trim for 2024?
I'm wondering what the value of CP360 is concerning it's operation at highway speeds on the interstate? Does it keep the Maverick in the lane, or does it just warn the driver...
Once again: This is NOT MY prediction!
I called my salesman to check on my COVP today - He will get back to me Monday on that. I started asking him questions on his 2023 Maverick orders and priorities, He had few answers, but he then said this: Ford will re-open the Maverick order bank in a...
This is a picture I got from my local Lakeland outlet. I don't know if it is on their website yet! You may need to call for the particulars.
I believe their Voyager model is coming for the Maverick as well, and an aluminum cap in the future. Call for details.
The mid-rise Striker looks good to...
The 2023 Maverick Order Bank closed 9-21-22 to Customer(Retail) orders!
However, Dealers can still enter 2023 Maverick(Stock) orders in order to have stock to sell on their lots.
Will this encourage YOUR dealer to sell at, or closer to, MSRP for the Mavericks that hit his lot?
Second question...
I believed that Ford's tough new rule (COVP needed for scheduling a build) was going to force dealers to straighten up. looks like the dealers may have won the battle with Ford now having dropped the rule! COVP is no longer needed to schedule builds for production, as most of us have already...
I talked to my salesman just after he got out of his Monday morning briefing. He said he learned in the meeting that Ford is intending to deliver 2023 Mavericks in 143 days! I am assuming that means time from "in production" to delivery. I didn't question him, as he was very busy and working a...
My 7 little ordering steps for attempting to secure a fair deal!
1. Ask Dealer Fee.
2. Ask if there is a deposit requirement.
3. Ask about other fees or charges.
4. Ask if your order sheet will be signed by the dealer rep before the order is submitted to Ford.
5. Will you submit my order today...
I decided to try something different with dealer #4, after striking out with the first three.
As much as I preferred the Hybrid to the ecoboost, I finally looked at the reality of my situation.
I need a vehicle soon, my 2005 Uplander is nearing the end and I don't want to stick any cash into...
I have not checked into this dealer yet, but they sure talk the talk! I don't see any mention of MSRP pricing, but a phone call would answer that question.

Ford dealer deceptive sales practices appear to be at an all time high recently!
Has anyone here ever had a professional car buyer order a car for you? I'm assuming they would order for a client, not just make purchases off the lot!
I just received a flyer from my Credit Union talking about...
What price were you quoted for your Maverick today?
Please include EB or Hybrid, trim, miles on vehicle and who gave you today's offer!
It'll be fun to watch these offers drop ,or not, as production increases and Ford dealers are nudged towards MSRP pricing with the new allocation formula!
I've been through many VIN threads, but can't find an answer to this question.
What exactly does Ford require in order to release a VIN for a Maverick order?
My GUESS is that the COVP is required, same as it is required to get your Maverick build scheduled.
Does anyone know for sure?
As a diversion as we click off the minutes till the MY23 order bank opens, I'd like to see the Black Wheels on your Maverick!
I think that Gloss Black Mags look Great on all colors of Maverick, and that Matte Black looks Great on most colors! Just my opinion, so please don't ask.
I may very well...
