I think I hit a nerve exercising my right to spend my money to meet my needs. I'm retired... I have 0 desire to haul a sheet of plywood. Since 1973, I have purchased approximately 30 new vehicles, and only 2 were trucks, a 2019 Ranger Lariat and a 2021 F-150 Lariat and used the bed of the F-150...
It is rated 101 MPGe, sorry if I confused you by dropping the e, which stands for equivalent. It seems that you do not understand the e-coat process, which before the automakers started using that process, vehicles rusted out quickly, especially around the wheel wells in states like Ohio that...
My driving is almost exclusively with 5 miles of my home...but I am retired. Church and grocery store. I could have gotten by with a golf cart, but I like a cabin to keep me warm, dry or cool 😎
My PHEV Escape so far is averaging 99.9...it hasn't used any gas yet, just battery...gas would be available if the battery goes dead....

Yes, this Escape is a PHEV. 90% of my driving is within 5 miles of home. Retired but drive school bus 1 mile from home. No need to go anywhere in nasty weather... schools cancel. And if I do need to use the gas engine, it is the same as the Maverick...about 40 mpg. Call me cheap, but even though...
After waiting 13 months for my 23 Maverick Hybrid Lariat, I refused acceptance. The reasons: 1) After reading the article regarding what Ford did to produce it at that price was primary. By not E-coating body parts, it will rust in Northern Ohio. Other components were dropped or cheapened...
Have you discussed with your salesman why it is not scheduled? They can see what options you ordered that are unavailable. I ordered mine with mud flaps and a tri-fold cover... you would think those accessories would be easy to get... nope! I removed those after waiting 10 months to get...
I have seen an ad for a low profile cap made by Lear that really looks sweet on the Maverick, but my searches for it come up empty.
My salesman has tried to source it too, to no avail.
Has anyone seen this or know any details of how to get one? I even emailed Lear with no response.
I have a...
