  1. Any Hybrid owners get the free FITS package?

    Did you have to call them and ask for it? We got our truck a month ago and haven't heard anything.
  2. Ford stock turns downward due to lack of sales! Reasons not to pay ADM!

    ... which is less than inflation and doesn't consider their operational costs. It's a loss for them, just like my 0% loan.. and both are considered incentives.
  3. Took delivery today!

    He's more responsible than I am, so it's probably safer with him than it is with me 😂 He graduates this semester with a degree in aeronautical engineering and already has a job lined up in the aerospace industry.
  4. Took delivery today!

    Seriously! I asked him if maybe he was remote starting it and letting it run and he said no?
  5. Took delivery today!

    Unfortunately I haven't seen it since the day we picked it up and he took it off to college 😅 The feedback that I have from him is that it gets 20 mpg driving around campus. I asked him if he had it in Eco mode, and he said no because it felt like driving in mud? I guess that's what you get...
  6. Do I need a spray in bed liner?

    I just ordered the BedRug impact mat from RealTruck with my tonneau cover for my Hybrid XL. I figure if I hate it I can probably resell it and get a spray in liner. I honestly think it will meet my needs perfectly. In fact, even if I go with a spray in later, I can still use that same impact...
  7. Suggestions for soft roll back cover?

    Whichever one you decide on, go to RealTruck's website, open the chat, tell them that you're a forum member and you'll get a healthy discount!
  8. Ford branded tonneau cover installed

    I don't know if it would fill your gap, but RealTruck recommended this to keep dirt and water from getting into the bed: https://realtruck.com/p/truxseal-tailgate-seal/
  9. SCORE ! The Maverick will darn near be paid for ;)

    The hybrid Maverick that I helped my son buy was a replacement for his 2019 Mustang GT that we bought new for 30k and sold to CarMax for $36k. Put 4k of that down, financed 18k for 36@0%, and will use the 2k left to get some accessories. Ordered a bedrug and truxedo cover from RealTruck...
  10. How many miles when "new"

    Mine had 8 when I drove it into the service bay for the dealer to prep after the transport driver parked it, and 12 when we drove it off the lot after the dealer had prepped it (which included them driving it to the gas station to fill it up).
  11. United Road

    Your mileage may very, but my truck made it to the Chicago Heights yard on December 23rd and was delivered to the dealership in central Indiana yesterday (16 days). There were two other vehicles on the carrier for the dealer, one had been waiting a week longer and one a week less.
  12. XL owners - show me under your wheel cover

    Yes, I agree that looks like the exact nut. I'm really glad that they switched to this style, I had several Ford Focuses and the nuts that had the outer cover on them would get rusted underneath and the cover would pop off or strip out the underlying metal. I replaced them all with this exact...
  13. Took delivery today!

    Beautiful story! Yes, even before my mom worked for Ford, her father and my dad's father were Ford-or-nothing guys. My mom won't give up her 5 speed 5.0 even though she can't work the clutch. We may have to bury her in it, because she won't let us drive it either 😂 I didn't feel like I had...
  14. Took delivery today!

    The base 5-speed 1997 F150 was 15,045 with delivery before tax. No A/C or power windows, but it did have AM/FM. In today's dollars that's $26k. The XL Maverick with sliding window and copilot was $22,185. I think the Maverick wins the value contest.
  15. Took delivery today!

    Like a big stalker, I showed up at the dealership right after the transport driver. I chatted with him after he unloaded and before the dealership finished the paperwork. He absolutely loves his job, and talked about how when he brings cars to Central Indiana from the Chicago railyard that he...
  16. Took delivery today!

    Took delivery today of a XL hybrid today that we ordered in June. Inskeep Ford in Greenfield Indiana was stellar through the entire process! Fun story here.. 21 year old me bought a new 1997 F150 at the same dealership 25 years ago, and today my 21 year old son has purchasing this Maverick! We...
  17. ADM Dealer Markups on A/Z plan?

    There's an additional $275 program fee, but the dealer has a $75 doc fee limit. The wildcard is that dealers are not required to accept A/Z plan pricing. You would want to discuss with the dealer when ordering and get something in writing.
  18. So close... XLT Area 51 Hybrid

    The holidays don't seemed to have helped with the existing bottleneck of rail yard to dealership transport, but your dealer's optimistic estimate of "probably next week" seems like a safe bet. Mine has been in a Chicago yard for 3 weeks, and some guys have posted having to wait 2 months in a...
  19. What a screwed-up system!

    The only reason I'm getting a Maverick is so that I can haul large quantities of toilet paper 😜
