Some dash cam view and commentary on the drivability, suspension, and handling of the Maverick along with views of the elusive XL trim interior from Johny's car care & reviews.

This just makes me more excited to get my car. The handling is what I wanted to see, and they touched on this. YAY!

Wow! That’s great!! Ford rep coming to get it taken down in 3.2.1…
Yep, dudes in black suits with blue ovals might be showing up at your door… taking away your computers and whatnot. CAN’T. VIOLATE. THE EMBARGO.🤣😂🤣

… And, bro, don’t mind the haters. Dude, I appreciate the positive review. I’m smart enough to know it won’t be 100% perfect, but it’s great to see this thing moving and hearing your perspective!

That XL has controls for the side mirrors. I thought XL's didn't have side mirror controls...

Nevermind, didn't realize it came with the Co-Pilot 360.

Interesting that he associates the Falken Wildpeak tires with the FX4 package, whereas elsewhere folks have said the FX4 comes with the Pirelli Scorpions. I wonder if that's a mistake or a late-stage change based on negative feedback. @fordvideoguy any insight into this?

Overall a nice "first Look/Drive" insight to the Hybrid . The video was done as well as can be expected, considering the venue. Did anyone see a shot of dash in the hybrid drive. Might have to watch again.

There ar two OEM tires for the Hybrid according to Tire Rack. Its done to insure supply if one manufacturer has issues. The Conti CrossCraps and a Michelin offering.

Its the $795 add on which is only available with the FX4 package- Comes with those Alloy wheels and the watered down OEM "Version" of the Wildpeaks -

Correct, but only if you choose those wheels - if you select that tire in the build and price, It also requires the alternate wheel/rim (the aluminum/chrome looking ones). If you like those and are just adding Tow but not FX4 I could see making that choice - but if you're choosing FX4 where the package includes the cost of the upgraded all-black wheels, it doesn't make much sense to then pay to switch over to the alternate tire+wheel - makes more sense to just swap the tires out at the dealer.
