  1. Who needs a hybrid anyways?!

    I went with the hybrid because my commute is 15 miles of mostly city and suburban streets with a 6 mile freeway in the middle, and front-wheel drive can handle winters here with good snow tires. What surprised me (but shouldn't have) is how much the hybrid likes mountain roads - I was in West...

    Bad to the Bone - George Thorogood and the Destroyers
  3. Look out Maverick here comes the Bug Truck

    The engine is up front, like every New Beetle. And it's certainly eclectic.
  4. Look out Maverick here comes the Bug Truck

    A Gremlin is essentially an AMC Hornet with the trunk cut off.
  5. Anyone having success playing music from Maverick's (non-Sync 3) USB drive w/library of >10,000 files?

    m4a files will play as I discovered, and of course mp3 plays in anything, but you can't change an mp3 file to m4a, because you have to start with a lossless format like a CD or a WAV or FLAC file to create a lossy compressed file like mp3 or m4a. m4a is supposed to be slightly better quality...
  6. Anyone having success playing music from Maverick's (non-Sync 3) USB drive w/library of >10,000 files?

    I decided to take a whack at loading up all my tunes on a Lexar/Micron USB 3 drive and putting it in my XLT. Here's what I found: 1. The index goes in alphabetical order by artist folder. So if you're over 10,000 files, no ZZ Top for you! 2. The initial indexing takes a looooooong time, but...
  7. Hey yinz guys!

    That's good ol' Area 51, under a partly cloudy sky.
  8. Hey yinz guys!

    What did you order? I had one of the worst combos for constrained items (Hybrid/XLT/Lux), but things are looking much better now.
  9. Hey yinz guys!

    I was getting kind of annoyed, especially when I had to roll over to ‘23. But at least my prior ride (2015 Forester) was still in great shape, or I would have gone completely nuts.
  10. Hey yinz guys!

    I got mine from Woltz & Wind in Heidelberg. But mine is an XLT Hybrid with Lux package, which hit the Constraint Trifecta of the ‘22 model year.
  11. Who "stepped down" to XL because of the ugly interior color choices of XLT? (Not because of cost savings)

    +1 The XLT seats remind me of the ones in the 1970s Levi's edition Jeeps, only without the annoying rivets.
  12. A 591 day wait for this...

    Wow, what are the odds? I also got my Maverick on June 9th after a 591-day wait - they might have gone down the assembly line together (mine is also an XLT hybrid). I have some accessories on the way, but nothing installed yet.
  13. Hey yinz guys!

    Finally got around to uploading a photo.
  14. Hey yinz guys!

    Hi, I'm Jeff, from the 'burbs just southwest of Pittsburgh. I've been visiting the site for almost two years now, but I finally got around to joining. Why now? Well, the Maverick I first ordered all the way back in October 2021 has finally arrived at the dealer, and I'll be picking it up on...
