I meant Granger either has 100+ Mavericks in stock as stated in their website “specials” or they don’t really have that many, because that is a ton of unsold. It is truly odd. What I said happened in my exchange with Chip is 100% true. Chip can check his email and probably find it. I still had...
This was the email I sent:
Chip,
I saw on the Ford inventory search that Granger has 8 "Dealer Ordered" Ford Mavericks. Will any of these Mavericks be available for MSRP? Thank you.
This was Chip’s complete answer:
“We're pricing in the lot Mavericks for in-state at $1795 for paint...
Before you go thinking Granger Ford is a standup dealership know the truth. I asked if I any of their dealer ordered Mavericks were going to be offered for MSRP in fall 2023. This was the email reply I got from Chip:
“We're pricing in the lot Mavericks for in-state at $1795 for paint protection...
Please 🙏 pay double taxation. Pay my tax and then pay your own tax. It isn’t worth it after Ford raised the price and then added $1500 for the hybrid option. Interest rates are sky high. The flipping days are over. Maybe you didn’t get the memo 📝.
I can help with this question because I had a 2022 Mercedes GLC that I sold as I was buying my 2023 Ford Maverick Lariat. Mercedes wins on build quality. Don’t expect to profit on a flip in this market, because it will be a gamble, especially after you pay taxes. Mercedes depreciates quickly so...
A hitch on a hybrid is kind of useless. Put some convex mirrors on the side mirrors and it works almost as well as blind spot monitoring. I had an XLT with those mirrors and I was surprised how well it worked. Good find!
I got this from Chip at Granger when I asked about a recent dealer ordered Maverick.
“We're pricing in the lot Mavericks for in-state at $1795 for paint protection and rustproofing over MSRP and out of state would be $5000 over that.”
Needless to say, I won’t be driving over state lines to buy...
Get on the Ford Maverick inventory search and broaden your search. Look for Dealer ordered (black banner and blue Monroney label) make some phone calls. You shouldn’t have a problem finding one at the end of the manufacturing line which is happening now. I had better luck in Detroit than Chicago...
I have had a 2022 FWD Ecoboost XLT, a 2023 AWD 4K Lariat, and a 2023 Hybrid XL. The FWD Ecoboost XLT was my least favorite setup. It sounded like the “bowling alley full of bees”. I felt like I had a sewing machine in there. I would never order another FWD Ecoboost. I like the AWD 4K in the...
I live in the Midwest and a dealer near me has 10 Mavericks. Ironically, the dealer is still trying to play the $5k markup game as the trucks stack up. I do think more people are abandoning orders because of interest rates and interest in other trucks. The Colorado, Ranger, and Tacoma are...
I had the dealership install a perimeter plus alarm on a 2023 XL. The alarm works, but I don’t get a message in my FordPass app. Is there a way to get the messages on my phone with an XL?
