  1. 🧭 Track Your Maverick Order by VIN + Order Number [& Get Your Window Sticker]

    Worked for me too, used Firefox browser. Production date March 4.
  2. If they made a full EV Maverick, would you buy, switch? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    This is especially true for Texas which is isolated from the national grid. Texas leads the nation in renewable energy production, especially wind, but there are often transmission bottlenecks. The biggest consumer of electricity is the industrial sector, with oil refineries being at the top of...
  3. It's such a awesome vehicle - I don't understand any of the complaints.

    Haven't received my Maverick yet. My expectation is to never have to take it back to the dealer for anything other than routine maintenance since it is a new car.
  4. For those who are shocked by current auto loan rates here is historical rates since 1972

    Boomers didn't have the enormous student loan debt that young people endure today. In the early 80's the student loan system was largely privatized under Reagan and interest rates soared. In addition, the College Board reported that tuition and fees have increased by more than 231% since 1971...
  5. Who else is waiting for front axles for their hybrid?

    I've never bought an extended warranty before but now I'm reconsidering on my yet to be delivered 2024. The worst part, in my opinion, is the time wasted going back and forth with dealers trying to fix problems like this. Even though Ford may pay for the repairs.

  7. Maverick shortage is over?

    Highly unlikely that those new Mavericks at Bowen Scarff are available to buy off the lot. Well looks like they do have one available, a used 2023 ecoboost with 20K miles for $32,897. The retail prices of Mavericks on CarMax and Carvana have barely come down in the past year which is an...
  8. One year 40K owner's review

    Thanks for your candid review and great photos. But I have to say, it's a little worrying to me that you've had axle, software and EVCT issues. I expect a new vehicle to be good to go for many miles. I've been driving a Subaru Outback for 10 years and it has needed nothing but oil changes. The...
  9. = $17.33 a gallon? Whoa, Nellie!

    Always look at the source. The article was published by the Texas Public Policy Foundation which lobbies for the oil and gas industry.
  10. Maverick bubble over ?

    By that logic, Stellantis should have lowered prices on Jeeps when they moved the plant from ILL to Mexico, instead they raised the prices by a lot. Or the prices of Apple devices should be cheap because they are made in Chinese sweat shops. Corporations will charge whatever the market will bear...
  11. UAW and Ford reach tentative agreement

    Stellantis moved a Jeep plant to Mexico where there are lower labor costs. Did they pass that cost savings to the consumer? No, they increased the prices 20-30%. Manufacturers price cars according to what the market will bear.
  12. UAW and Ford reach tentative agreement

    https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2023/10/25/uaw-strike-ford-reaches-tentative-deal-with-union-sources-say/71318908007/ Happy workers do a better job and are more productive. EDIT: I see this news has already been posted but can't figure out how to delete this thread.
  13. UAW cites progress with Ford

    I read this, may or not be true. Jim Farley is the cousin of the late comedian Chris Farley. Chris is most known for living in a van down by the river. William Clay Ford Jr., the executive chair of the company, plays ice hockey with UAW members.
  14. UAW cites progress with Ford

    Fain said Ford agreed to reinstate the cost of living adjustment and other job security provisions that had been taken away in 2009.
  15. UAW cites progress with Ford

    Interestingly Ford stock price surged today 3-4%. UAW is expanding the strike nationwide to GM and Stellantis parts distribution centers where top pay maxs out at $25 and takes 8 years to get there. Shawn Fain called on auto makers to end price gouging and invest record profits into sustainable...
  16. Teamsters will honor UAW strike (No Deliveries)

    The starting wage at GM in Kansas City is $16.67. Even if they got a 10% raise the first year of the contract that only raises them to $18.33. The UAW made major concessions in 2008, and workers were promised they'd be made whole again when the companies became profitable. The long and short...
  17. Teamsters will honor UAW strike (No Deliveries)

    There's much more to it than what's being reporting in the mainstream media. There are plants, particularly Stellantis, in which temporary autoworkers are working 7 day weeks. UAW's Communication department has done a terrible job of educating the public.
  18. Teamsters will honor UAW strike (No Deliveries)

    He said all options remain on the table but if there is no resolution that the strike will begin at midnight at three locations which include the Ford Michigan assembly plant.
