  1. Decided not to take the 2025 AWD I ordered

    In Virginia where the weather has multiple personality disorder, there is no such thing as set it and forget it. Not every state is as simple as Ohio, my dude.
  2. 2025 Bronco Sport Gains Sasquatch Off-Road Package, New Tech, Features

    This A/C screen thing is the one thing that has turned me off from the Maverick. I know the just-use-the-auto-button crowd hates that we keep bringing it up, but it's a major turn off. I would love to see some form of federal regulation that would make certain tactile controls inside a vehicle...
  3. 2025 Bronco Sport Gains Sasquatch Off-Road Package, New Tech, Features

    See... I said the same thing back when the hybrid engine was backordered into oblivion but was laughed at on this forum. lol The 1.5L Dragon and the 2.5L hybrid have very similar performance specs (at least, that's the case last time I compared them on paper). With Ford seemingly learning...
  4. 2025 Bronco Sport Gains Sasquatch Off-Road Package, New Tech, Features

    I wouldn't be so harsh on the 1.5L Dragon engine. It's actually a really decent engine and good in most US terrain outside of probably the Rockies. My Escape has the 1.5L and has covered the east coast from LA to NH and around the Appalachian with no issues. On top of that, it has enough pep...
  5. 2025 vs 2024

    It really comes down to if the '25 has anything you REALLY want or loathe. As you can see, opinions vary across the spectrum regarding the refresh Maverick. It's a bit of a cost benefit analysis. For example, I was interested in one day replacing my '20 Escape with a Maverick. After seeing...
  6. My Stupid Theory - Maverick price hikes make way for new cheap truck

    I won't laugh. While I doubt the Maverick will grow any bigger than it is, I do see an electric Mav in the next decade. Last I heard, Ford still plans on making an electric Escape (assuming the current Mach-E isn't just an electric Escape with an identity crisis). Considering the Maverick is...
  7. Spied: Eruption Green 2025 Maverick XL on Steelies / XLT with New Grille / Lariat with New Wheels and Accents

    Eww, I don't like auto mode. It's never been useful for me. Then again, I tend to go on longer drivers more often than the average person, spending on average 3-4 hours a day in my vehicle. I like being able to micro-adjust the temp, speed, and vents as I see fit during these long drives. I...
  8. Spied: Eruption Green 2025 Maverick XL on Steelies / XLT with New Grille / Lariat with New Wheels and Accents

    I don't understand why we can't have a section below the screen for 2 knobs and 4-5 buttons/switches that can be assignable through Sync/Ford Experience/whatever it is called now. It would be a happy medium between physical and touchscreen interfaces. The driver can assign whatever functions...
  9. Spied: Eruption Green 2025 Maverick XL on Steelies / XLT with New Grille / Lariat with New Wheels and Accents

    In the second pick, you can see that XL Maverick is getting the 12-inch infotainment screen a.k.a no physical buttons for the A/C or radio (there's a better picture on Ford Authority). **sighs in disappointment**
  10. Spied: Eruption Green 2025 Maverick XL on Steelies / XLT with New Grille / Lariat with New Wheels and Accents

    Whoa whoa whoa there, buddy. I think you're confusing us Millennials with Gen Z. Most of us grew up with either Gen X parents or siblings. lol
  11. Spied: Eruption Green 2025 Maverick XL on Steelies / XLT with New Grille / Lariat with New Wheels and Accents

    I hate that the front end is growing on me. It's still ugly, but it's slowly becoming passable. ...maybe it's time to see my optometrist.
  12. Toyota CEO says still no plans for Maverick competitor (i.e. Toyota Stout)

    Are we sure about that yet? The Gen-6 Ranger is just now getting to dealer lots and customers. Also, Ford USA did a horrible job advertising the new Ranger. I think we need to give it a good year before we can truly tell how the Ranger is doing.
  13. Spied: 2025 Maverick Refresh Prototypes Reveal Additional TWO New Grille Designs [UPDATED]

    So it looks like my theory on the "Lobo" Maverick is correct: the protrusions between the headlights and grill are based off the protrusions we see in the Gen-6 Ranger. My only critique is that the feature looks fine on a Ranger but seems a bit odd on the Maverick's smaller front end. Like...
  14. Toyota CEO says still no plans for Maverick competitor (i.e. Toyota Stout)

    But Toyota sells so many Tacomas, wouldn't that not matter? People bought Mavericks to accompany their Rangers/F-150s, why would people do that for their Tacomas/Tundras? Ford had Ranger, F-150, and SuperDuty which is arguably a more crowded lineup than Toyota. Now if you're considering...
  15. 2025 Maverick Refresh / Facelift + Lobo ST Street Truck Undisguised & Revealed! (w/ Huge Display Screen)

    I'm saving this burn for the day I get a Maverick. I'm gonna need it working for a construction company; already got enough crap back when I had a Focus and with my current Escape. lol But I also agree that most pickup owners don't need a pickup. They usually haul air or a tonneau cover in...
  16. 2025 Maverick Refresh / Facelift + Lobo ST Street Truck Undisguised & Revealed! (w/ Huge Display Screen)

    Just because I have way too much time on my hands during lunch, but here's what I see between the pre and post refresh Maverick (aside from the obvious C-clamp from the pre-refresh Mav). Don't really know if it helps with the discussion on this thread.
  17. 2025 Maverick Refresh / Facelift + Lobo ST Street Truck Undisguised & Revealed! (w/ Huge Display Screen)

    Yeah, that's what I was getting at from my original comment about there being "no exhaust"; should've said "no visible exhaust tips". lol
  18. 2025 Maverick Refresh / Facelift + Lobo ST Street Truck Undisguised & Revealed! (w/ Huge Display Screen)

    Just to be an instigator and grasp at straws for no good reason, has anyone else noticed that you 1) don't see exhaust pipes sticking out, and 2) this Mav is being followed by a Mach-E?
  19. 2025 Maverick Refresh / Facelift + Lobo ST Street Truck Undisguised & Revealed! (w/ Huge Display Screen)

    I don't think it makes the original look "dated", but I agree that the refresh definitely makes it look like Ford played it safe with the original design. They were totally using the utilitarian design excuse to keep things simple and cheap if the Maverick ended up being a flop. Now that the...
