$40k plus or minus a bit depending on options? too much for a maverick, for me. plenty of interesting ideas for a refreshed mav, but really, some of the ideas would push the price into the mid or upper 40’s. ends the idea of a low cost truck. i would probably end up with a used ridgeline for...
Black interior instead of blue. That doesn’t raise the price. If I had to buy something right now, it wouldn’t be a new tremor. I like mine, but the new price makes me laugh
i’m not a fan of this move. but i’m not going to promote ford as some sort of savior for auto enthusiasts either. no battery gauge, no transmission dipstick on the maverick. as plenty have pointed out, it isn’t just gm.
car companies just argued with the president to stop local shops, and us...
yep. and that quote applies to gas powered vehicles too. and diesel’s!
not sure what the op is so butt hurt about? of course there is a small percentage of people who hate ev’s. so what. there is also a small percentage of people who say everyone needs to go ev to save the planet. so what...
Purchasing a Maverick and complaining that accessories are made overseas? Seriously?
isn’t the Ridgeline more American than the Maverick? Tacoma, tundra too.
i think the Ridgeline has more American made parts than the f-150
a buddy had one in diesel. easy 50 mpg back in early late 80’s, early 90’s. i had a diesel rabbit. 270 thousand on it when it died. so simple to work on back then. shock towers under the hood would rust out, easily fixed though
eventually bought a 99 1/2 manual, diesel jetta. that thing...
the dude also says don’t buy a car. he hasn’t explained how i’m getting 20 miles to and from work when it is -5f. or any other time.
if you want an extended warranty, buy one. if you don’t, don’t.
i change it every 2,500 because so many on the internets have me worried about my turbo. but then the other people on the internets make me feel bad about wasting oil and the environment, so i go 12,500 miles before a change. average 7,500 i should be good, right ? :)
usually see the young kids that get hired at work run out and buy a 60-80k truck. with a payment that makes me choke.
i really like the full size tremor, or the chevy z71, but a vehicle that costs nearly double what my first house cost, causes me a mental block that i just won’t cross...
i am plenty old enough that big block noise gives me a bit of a chubby. in my opinion, nothing can be done to make a maverick, or any small turbo engine, sound good. obviously, opinions vary :)
Ai and robotics mixed, is doing things in construction i never would have imagined. what they are working on for the future is even more wild.
change is the only constant
at this stage of my life, i am not interested in the slate., maybe 10 years form now? but i am all for massively different options being produced. the more options, the better. the tide has turned on 80k full size trucks as family vehicles. interest rates, increased cost of everything, etc...
