Here's a trip from today. Temperature right at 60° and the wind very slight. I drove in economy mode and was ultra conservative on all start and stops for the trip and I coasted on the hills where I could. I could have done even better but I was being pressed by traffic couple of times and felt...

Good job I like what I'm seeing on your fuel economy. I have noticed since I've had my Maverick for over 3,000 miles now that my fuel economy is degraded terribly by frigid temperatures and wind. But in the last few days where I live the temperature has come up quite a bit hovering around 60°...

If you've got time check this thread out there's a couple of Maverick truck owners that have done a really good job documenting the various conditions they drive in and showing what they've been able to accomplish during their testing phase...

I'm doing my own series of experiments with the different driving modes currently. I obviously don't have nearly as many miles or fuel fill ups as you. That being said what speed would you say is the best currently for your total overall miles per gallon? The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to...

A couple of the Maverick truck owners in this thread are doing excellent with their miles per gallon. Their explanation and photo evidence is really illuminating! This is going to be my goal for my experimentation...

Do you recall what mode you were driving on for this particular trip? So far my experiments have been in normal mode, economy and slippery.

Nice job that's what I'm talking about! Thanks for the post.

Thanks for your post I appreciate it. I'm currently trying to decide if after this tank of fuel, being that it could potentially last me a very long time, if I should opt and switch to premium fuel for my next fill up. Coming from driving that Chevy Silverado that only averaged around 14 miles...

I do appreciate that information. And yes everyone's driving is obviously going to be different. I did read a post a few days ago where a gentleman stated that he was on his fifth tank of gas and he was driving so conservatively with his hybrid that he was averaging well over 700 plus miles per...

I appreciate that information. I am switching from a 2003 Chevy Silverado that I had lifted with aggressive off-road tires and some serious aftermarket exhaust done to it. So with this new Maverick I'm trending towards the opposite end of the spectrum as I was only getting around 14 miles per...

Thank you very much guys for your feedback, getting a lot of great info from you. That's exactly why titled this thread "Don't drive it like you stole it" First off that's an attention getter. Secondly, it was was to cultivate a conversation about tactics and tips for getting the most out of...

Excellent

Thank you for the catch on my grammar errors. I almost always use talk to text and if I'm in a hurry obviously I don't go back and do spell check :)Have a great day.

Thanks for sharing that info. I plan on doing tests in all the modes on a given route that has a known distance that I continually travel and try to drive the exact same way to lessen the variables. I'm having a lot of fun doing these experiments right now, basically I'm trying to top and come...

I had my dealership install the soft tri-fold tonneu cover upon receipt of my maverick. I have no complaints about it thus far. Cost me $400.

I am going to attach a couple of photos to show what is capable of with the hybrid Maverick being driven very conservatively (very minimal effort applied in acceleration and letting gravity and hills adjust my speed accordingly and braking very conservatively) in Eco mode. I have not tried out...

I got the soft tri-fold. Works great and leaves plenty of open room should you need to haul anything taller than the top of the truck bed level. Here is mine from rear view.

I just got my Maverick a few days ago. My dad ordered a 2023 Ford Maverick XLT cyber metallic Orange a few weeks ago when the order Banks were opened. That color looks really good on this truck.

I can tell you based on the last 2 days of driving in economy mode, and driving very conservatively I was able to reach 51.9 miles per gallon on one of my 10 Mile trips. I've been averaging at least 47 miles per gallon. I've driven it 60 miles since picking it up at the dealership.
