The smoothest ride I've ever taken was in a modern-ish Ram 1500 with air suspension. The smoothest Ford was in an Expedition with active suspension. What those two have in common beyond a fancier suspension is weight. Given the Maverick's small size and light weight, it might be harder to find...
Until the wheels fall off and the new ones do, too. I put roughly 6,000 miles a year on it. I got rid of my last two vehicles when I hit 220,000 miles. At my current rate, I will replace my Maverick in 2059.
I have State Farm and pay $424 a month for four cars with two teenagers and a liability umbrella. The umbrella and my 16-year-old son make up almost half of that. My Maverick has full coverage and a flat $1,000 deductible for $78 a month.
Never heard of this blog before, and the blog doesn't actually have any more information than a random MTC forum post. Given how much hybrid purchases have increased over the years, this slop is incorrect from the outset.
Yep. AI is great at pattern recognition but not at innovation. It generates exactly what you tell it to generate. So the Motor Trend images look that way because they wanted it to look that way.
I asked Grok to look at the spy photos and, assuming it is based on the Maverick's size, what would a Ranchero look like? It said it will look like an EV Maverick. Basically, the results were the current version, with a few aerodynamic tweaks. It stated,
"keeping the Maverick’s fun, compact...
I have it set to 70 and mostly just run it on Auto 1. In a pinch, I'll temporarily move it up to Auto 2.
In Alabama, there is no "economical" way to run it. It just runs nonstop.
Yeah, but there is something telling about the human condition about a beautiful beach actually needing a dumpster. Also, as I said, I took with my iPhone....
This has always been my favorite shot with my Maverick. I took it with my iPhone, but I used to be a videographer and can take better images with it than most people can with a real camera. The Lariat badge is almost exactly on the upper-right third.
Market will eventually adjust. Once these dealers start struggling due to unsold stock, they will have no choice but to relent on prices. I've been very vocal that it will take a decade for the economy to fully recover and settle down from the Covid shutdowns. We are still dealing with the...
I doubt Ford and Toyota are looking over their shoulders. Ford could make the Maverick's range exceed 800 miles by simply adding a larger battery, a larger gas tank, and a plug. The Escape PHEV got over 500 miles per tank, and its battery is only marginally larger than the Maverick's.
