this seems especially relevant in consideration of never ending "debate" and opinions on what is best for our Mavericks. Enjoy!

have to scroll down almost to bottom of article to find this, but here's the nugget:
"According to Bowen Scarff Ford, there's a strong possibility of the order books re-opening (again) in August 2023."

Looking for a 1 piece drop in bedliner. Don't want the Ford 5 piece drop in or sprayliner. Had good luck with 1 piece on 3 previous Rangers I owned.
Some time ago there were posts about some aftermarket liners supposedly available. Anybody buy 1 or know if any actually being sold yet?
Thanks...
:D Picked up my Maverick today. VERY smooth transaction with my small local dealer. Did a walkaround inspection yesterday before PDI and went back today for a quick test drive and completed purchase. Dealer honored the original pricing (MSRP and no hikes after ordering) and added back in my $750...
Hope this post doesn't jinx me, but.... After 3 push backs from original Aug 29 build week scheduled, I have not received notice they will push me again. Ford has actually been good about emailing me the week before scheduled week to let me know of changes. Never got 1 this time and checked...
Ford Gives Dealers Six Weeks To Decide If They Want To Continue Selling EVs (msn.com)
Dealers are either all in on electrification or they're going to be left out.
In what will certainly be met with resistance from many of its franchises, Ford dropped a bomb at its annual dealership meetings...
Got my VIN and 8/29 build date from my dealer back on July 15. Today I received official email from Ford confirming scheduled for production and 8/29 build week. I've seen a couple other posters on here with 8/29 build week- anyone get pushed back yet?
Dealer called today and gave me my VIN. 7 months to the day since I ordered. It was also 2 weeks after I modified my order to remove constraint items on June 30th. Build details in my signature below. Tracking site confirms my VIN and still shows 1st bubble for Order Confirmed. Tried to view...
Ordered my Maverick Dec 15, 2021 and dealer had me at Priority 19 (all their retail orders get this). I have a bunch of constrained options on it and was/am in no hurry to receive my truck. I drop into my dealer every 2-3 weeks to see if any changes or updates- or to ask about issues reported...
was recently playing with Ranger build & price tool and found the dreaded Destination & Delivery fee is $1295.00 vs. Maverick at $1495.00. Is this because Ranger is made and shipped from inside USA instead of shipping from Hermosillo, Mexico?
I ordered my Maverick at local dealer back on December 15th, and received Confirmation email from Ford in 30 minutes. Does this mean my order cleared ROVP (Retail Order Verification process) or could that still be outstanding action item needed? Reason I'm asking is the notice from Ford about...
Anybody in AL with a Maverick in transit just have their delivery date suddenly extended?

I ordered my XL with Eco 2.0 and AWD for multiple other reasons, but recently I have been seeing references to not needing snow chains in AWD vehicles. I live in CO and this time of year you can get into snow chains required areas when traveling. I'm wondering if the no chains with AWD is legit...
Just speculating a little here. I think most of us assume Ford representatives of some capacity monitor and act as Admin on this board. There's many discussions of the order process they rolled out for Maverick and many complaints. I'm not looking to start another complaint thread here, but...
I was alerted to an unexpected trainer visit at my local dealer this morning. I went over and met the trainer guy and asked a bunch of questions and was allowed to go inside, under the hood, checked underneath front and rear, etc. It was a Black Lariat 2.0 AWD FX-4 and other added options (but...
Stopped by my friendly local small town Ford dealer today to see if the Maverick stock unit they ordered came in yet. It's still scheduled for production or being built. It's XLT w/lux, FX4, full size spare a couple other options. It wasn't there and I've been having a couple lingering doubts...
Much has been written and discussed about why Ford didn't offer a smaller cab with 6' bed option. I was firmly in that camp. There's obviously some cost and tooling expense issues involved. The more I get into this trucklette and what Ford obviously is targeting with multiple demographics to...
Now things are getting interesting! Article suggests design of this is intended to retrofit ICE powered RWD vehicles due to rear facing output driveshaft. Time to start hording all those high mileage mini pickups from the 70's-90's and retrofit for big $ business :cool...
