I ordered mine in October. I called my dealer when I started to see the list of constrained options and dropped my spray-in bed liner. My dealer called me about two weeks ago to say that they had gotten a list of things holding up orders and told me I needed to drop my full size spare. I...
I live in the boonies and I've seen one in the wild, on a trip to the big city, and one that appeared to be being passed around among local Ford dealers just to prove that they exist.
I kept reading about this happening on this forum, the dealer breaking something in the process. My dealer seems to be as confused about this whole process as I am. I called Ford a couple of months back and they seemed to say the same thing my dealer was saying, hope that does it. Ordered...
Drove several hours to look at a Santa Cruz that the dealer claimed he had on his lot, of course he didn't. I started to hear the same thing from him that I've heard from my Ford deal, "we don't have one, but we can get one, how long with that take? Well, not long at all, probably, wellll...
My dealer called me yesterday, first time that has happened. They said Ford had sent them a list of orders that had gotten hung up because of something in the order. They said that my full size spare was the problem and that I might get a Vin if I canceled it. I did, but I don't remember a...
Last Friday I got out of my '94 S10 and found myself standing in a puddle of oil, warm oil, that was pouring out of my engine. I figured my old truck was done, so loaded up the wife and kid and drove to the nearest big city to see what those dealers had. "Nothing" is the answer to that...
Ordered my Maverick the last week of October. The dealer thought it would be here by Christmas. So, December and January come and go and I find this forum and the tracking page. Called my dealer for the order number, but no VIN yet, in February. Saw the video about restricted options, called...
Local dealer in my little town had one parked on his lot for a day. Sunday, when the dealer was closed. Wasn't his, wasn't for sale, on its way somewhere else. I think they did it just to prove that they are actually making them.
I was sitting in the Lowe's parking lot in Wichita, KS, thinking that on this trip to the big city, we might see a Maverick. I was thinking I needed to remind my wife and daughter to look for that offset license plate and looked out my window to see a truck with an offset license plate. It was...
Last Sunday, I'm standing in line at the cultural center of our little town in the midwest (Walmart) and I look over to the next line and see the salesperson who sold me my Maverick. She says, "Hey, we have a Maverick, umm, it isn't yours and we can't even sell it, but you can come look at it."...
I hate it, everytime I read one of these, "Why don't you buy a ------ instead of a Maverick?" articles, I then spend an hour or so looking at what passes for a small truck from any other maker. Fiddling with the build calculators on other sites, the best that I can come up with is something...
On lifting a Maverick -- I read a review a few days ago, in, I think, Road and Track. At the bottom of the article they had a very short list of "market competitors" they listed the Santa Cruz, but they also listed the John Deere Gator. I had to look that up and well, I think they are right...
I drive by my dealer everyday on my way to work, no offset tags on the trucks that they have sitting in their lot. I went in about a month ago and asked my salesperson for the order number and since she has contacted me once a week to say there has been no further progress on my order. I...
When I lived in a big city, I thought an all electric would be a great idea. The lower maintenance costs for a daily commute of less than 50 miles. I thought, the prices will eventually come down (they haven't) and they will become affordable. Then I moved back to rural Kansas and spent...
I ordered mine that same week, a hybrid XL with a spray-in bed liner. I've not gotten a vin number yet. I like to think April or May, but my real bet is June.
I live in a small town in the midwest. My dealer tells me that there are four Mavericks on order and none have yet come in. I have not seen a one anywhere and I have been looking.
