Hello All,
Haven't posted since getting my 2023 Maverick in Aug of 2023. I have a HPR with the A.R.E. MX topper and didn't try getting a power lock for the back door T-Handle when I ordered. Wish I had.
Anyways, while out driving I spotted an Area 51 with the A.R.E. MX topper and he had...
Fossil, Long McArthur took nearly 785 orders for the 2023 Maverick because Ford gave them over 400 allocations for the 2022 Maverick. When Long McArthur was placing the new 2023 orders last year, when should they have stopped - at 400, 450, or 475... Maybe 500. What should the cut off have...
I ordered the same A.R.E. MX cap also. I had a tri coat paint cost of $155 for the hot pepper red. Also added the head liner covering for $184. Didn't like the raw fiber glass look and worried that maneuvering around inside the truck bed with the topper on might be uncomfortable brushing up...
I agree with Subsailortrainman that it's strange about not finding any news about such a major recall elsewhere.
Because of this, I had thought this was a scam post originally, and had said so a few days earlier. Not trying to "troll" when I posted, but it sure seemed a little odd.
Anyways, I...
I think this is a big scam post.
Look up this recall number on Ford’s site returns an Field Service Action (FSA), which is an available upgrade to a specific component or extension warranty.
No other hits when searching such a drastic recall action.
I think someone is pulling our chains.

I have an order placed for a Hybrid… But whatever my reasons, might not matter due to all the other orders submitted also.
Sure, great gas mileage, smooth ride, all sounds nice, but for half of us that ordered this year, we’ll never see the vehicle.
Vicariously I live a Maverick lifestyle via...
I just checked the price difference on the Build & Price site for Ford Maverick Lariat Hybrid vs Ecoboost.
The EB Lariat is $2,200 more because of the AWD requirement.
No requirement for XL and XLT trims that stay front wheel drive as EB.
I’d switch to EB if given the option. But because I ordered the Lariat Hybrid, at that trim the EB is only available in AWD, which is an up charge. Not interested with the extra cost.
Ford had to keep order banks open for some time to allow 22 to 23 rollovers a chance to put a new order.
If Ford had closed the Hybrid orders when capacity had been reached, possibly not all 22 to 23 rollovers would have had a chance to entere a new order.
I remember Ford put out an early...
I think a lot of members subscribe to the monthly membership to help support Tim and the info he supplies all viewers.
I joined without knowing there’d be any benefit - beyond getting a pen or coffee cup - but wanted to help support his channel. I notice many tips are given through out his...
Billy, doesn’t seem too harsh. You planned accordingly. But it sure appears that FMC will have the capacity for Ecoboost builds. I’d rather customers had the chance to convert an order and get the Maverick at a much better price point, and ordered to their liking.
If FMC builds dealership...
The figures listed in this thread are for Mavericks sold and not produced.
The administration posted another thread a few weeks back that had 86,000 Mavericks ordered for MY 2023 and the production year to date. It showed that year to date production was 71,000ish.
I believe that figure was...
Yes, I know that’s the case for 2023.
But what about the unsuspecting people that ordered the 2022 XL not realizing it wasn’t. Nice for those individuals to know there is a fix.
Very nice to know for someone that didn’t realize there modern truck didn’t come standard with cruise control. A fix for the oversight when the truck was ordered.
Who would have known that a vehicle built in 2022 wouldn’t have such a basic vehicle amenity.
It makes since that Ford is mostly previewing the Ecoboost for the first builds. It appears many Hybrids were built this last month. Long McArthur has a bunch arriving and on the lot. Facebook members are posting Hybrids built and being shipped. September had 10,000 Mavericks built, but unknown...
Michael Keaton made a movie in the mid 1980s about an automobile manufacturing plant that had to assemble a boat load of cars within a short deadline. The movie was Gung Ho.
Every car scheduled was produced, but many fell short of all the equipment that constitutes a driveable vehicle… like...
