It's interesting for me. I am going to be financing whenever my Maverick finally gets delivered to my dealership (next couple of weeks?). However, no A plan offered where I ordered, MSRP, and no special financing. If I decided to go with just about any other Ford (Bronco Sport or Ranger), I can...

I was about to call BS on the 15k out the door. No way in hell you are getting that unless the stealership has your last name on that.

That’s not necessarily true. Use good oil and good filter. Do a UOA to make sure. For me, I used Castrol Edge and a WIX XG or Fram Ultra. 7k oil changes and roughly 120k on my Fusion with no issues.

I'll give you two. Santa Cruz and Gladiator Sport. Both for under MSRP and special rate financing. Wait till the end of summer and guarantee there will be discounts on Ranger and special financing to get the old model out. Things aren't as bad you think they are but hey, put your head in sand to...

Please show me where I said hybrid. I was speaking Maverick in general.

Hybrids are a different animal, that's for sure. At MSRP, they make sense if you are looking to save money on gas. However, by paying over sticker aren't you negating any gas savings? I'm for certain not the demographic for a hybrid as I wouldn't like paying more than MSRP for a vehicle that...

I didn't remember speaking specifically about a hybrid, I was talking Maverick in general.

Laugh all you want but there are Santa Cruz's by me going for a few grand off sticker. I am in the Chicagoland area. I went to look because my car got totaled. Special financing at 3.9% and 1-3 grand off sticker. Trust me, I got phone calls for 2 weeks to come back and lets make a deal. Plenty...

People are going are going to buy what they want and rationalize it to make them feel better about it. No big deal, people just being people. It's a waste of money but some want it bad enough to pay it. Trust me, nobody is going to die if they don't get a Maverick. There are plenty of vehicles...

I ordered a 2023 in September. I got in an accident in the end of March. In mid April my insurance company decided to total it. A few days later I got my build date for June 19. I had to buy a car though, no getting around it. Finding a used vehicle was the worst car buying experience I ever...

I bet fully decked out that will be 65k, easily.

Show me a pickup in its price range that’s better. I’ll wait.

Would love to know what dealer this is. Most Illinois Ford dealers are shady AF!

While carbon build up on the Ecoboost 2.0 is a thing, it's not something that you should actively fret about. Use good oil and gas, and you should be easily good to 100k. I've got 115k on mine, and it runs flawlessly. The moment I start throwing codes or notice performance degradation, I will...

I'd go the Steve Lehto route. It's stories like this where I just want to cancel my order and buy a Ranger at MSRP or lower. I don't need a real truck but I may do it. I am not in a rush to buy but if the past 2 years has taught me anything, 80% of dealers are level 10 scums bags.

Yep, I grew up in Michigan but live in Illinois now. Went to a Detroit area dealer with my dad last summer, was looking around but they found out that I was from Illinois and suddenly my Z plan was refused and 5k added to the sticker. That same dealer has since called me back in the past two...

In the large Ford dealership group in my area, they have stood by at least 5k over MSRP for any car on the lot(not orders). They have started to negotiate over the past couple months on Edges, Explorers, Escapes, and F150 of the 2022 MY. Most still pay MSRP or a little more for those models...

Exactly this. Things are going south fast. Not trying to be negative but economy is in for a down turn with guaranteed Fed rate hike over the next 6-12 months. People finding out cars they were trading in a year ago are now worth way less. Some on here won't be effected, will think this isn't...
