  1. My First Recovery!!!

    I just learned about the tow-ball hitch recovery dangers today.
  2. Ford cannot fill all the orders for 2023

    Ford makes 3x that number of vehicles per month for the United States alone. Tesla also has a much smaller and less complex model line.
  3. Odd result from a wreck (totaled) today: steering wheel column detached in my hand!

    That is pretty shocking to me, as others have said, I'd report this to anyone you can - Ford Corporate will definitely want to know, NHTSA, your dealer. @Ford Motor Company . Glad you are okay.
  4. Needed to replace daily driver sooner than I could wait.

    That’s a great looking truck. I get it. I pulled the plug on my Mav order myself today and ordered a new Subaru Outback that I can get in three months. Have fun with your new toy!!
  5. Report: Ford Scheduling Maverick Hybrid at 50% of All Production Builds Starting July

    Now that I don’t have a horse in the race I can watch this process from a much more dispassionate position. I am very interested to see how it ends up for this model year for both eco-boost and hybrids.
  6. Maverick Clean-Up Scheduling This Week (4/27/23) for Production Weeks 6/5 to 6/26

    Seattle area (Subaru's EVERYWHERE around here). My dealer has quite a few on the lot, quite a few more soon to arrive. If I can't find the color/option combo I want, he indicated a new order would be expected likely by Julyish, and that YES they could in fact tell me that it would be built.
  7. Are these fees normal?

    Especially when most if not all manufactures provide "floor plan assistance" to their dealers that offset the costs of each vehicle waiting to be sold. If a dealer sells the vehicle as soon as it hits the lot, they are pocketing that full amount of $$.
  8. Are these fees normal?

    What state are you located in? The Doc fee can likely be negotiated. The car guys at the YT channel CarEdge (formerly YAA) would tell you " If it is taxable, it is negotiable." So Doc fees, accessories etc. Anything related to the government is not.
  9. Maverick Clean-Up Scheduling This Week (4/27/23) for Production Weeks 6/5 to 6/26

    It's the continued lack of a definitive answer as to who will get built that finally caused me to pull the plug. I'd be fine to wait if I knew I was going to be built this model year, but going a full year and then not getting scheduled, especially as an EB...too many other options for me.
  10. Maverick Clean-Up Scheduling This Week (4/27/23) for Production Weeks 6/5 to 6/26

    Sad as it is, I've decided to go another direction. Subaru Outback. Even if I have to order a 2024 it'll be here within 3-4 months.
  11. % of EBs scheduled?

    I've had the same question lately since the earliest point I would receive my truck now would be August. For the first time in this whole process, I have started to think about abandoning ship. I don’t necessarily need this vehicle, and my enthusiasm has been greatly dampened. The wait has not...
  12. 23 Lariat CoPilot 360 “radar” location???

    If I remember correctly -their original explanation for separating it going into this model year was it could potentially speed builds since it was a constrained item. I thought I remember that they had reduced the Lariat Lux package by the cost of the the CO-Pilot 360 assist.
  13. 📬 4/20/23 Scheduling Email Received Group [EMAILS NOT YET ARRIVING]

    If I remember what you have said previously, they still have a good chunk of EB left to schedule, and that for most it is likely an allocation game at this point?
  14. Where are all the Mavericks?

    In the Tacoma, WA area there are 3 or 4 I see on a regular basis.
  15. Yellow Maverick

    Grab a photo if the opportunity presents itself.
  16. BAP package in the summer.

    I currently have an Eco Lariat on order - very tempted by the BAP. I've never had black leather before - and while I live in the Seattle area, and we don't have super hot summers - I am worried that it could could get too hot for comfort.... Would tinting cut it down enough? Also.......anyone...
  17. Throttle stuck incident, very scary

    Wow. I am not sure I'd have been able to get back in the truck at that point.
  18. Throttle stuck incident, very scary

    How scary! I understand that logic often flies out the window in the moments of panic, but would flipping the truck in to neutral in this type of situation be an option?
  19. FX4 Wheels Powdercoated Bronze on Cactus Gray Maverick

    I have a HPR Lariat ordered.... Wonder if those wheels would look good with a bronze powder coat.
  20. Modify the order to get my maverick quickly?

    Ecoboost could be a good idea. Allocations are currently what is holding my Eco build, but I am hoping the 3rd shift they add this July will help get all Ecos built - regardless of allocations ( foolish hopes??? Maybe)
