green?? Interesting

I am waiting for the Rattler also! Hoping it comes out as a 2023 model

If we end up waiting for 23 it would be nice if its only a couple thousand of an upgrade and has serious upgrades. If not Im happy to have mine and use the pages to see how many hard parts I can take from it to upgrade mine.

With the top portion of the grille being covered I wonder if there will be a slightly different grille.

Probably 2 or 3 new colors available and a new package since there won’t be a First Edition.

This was a photo of the original release. Not new.

I searched and didn't happen to see a thread for this stuff.

For all of us in the camp of 2022 orders pushed back to '23 or anyone newly looking at a 2023.

(POST all the 2023 Mav. intel, spy shots, and info in this thread)

• Maybe new colors?
• Bigger touchscreen?
• Fixes?
• Package changes?

.....side note, I might consider an Eruption Green Maverick

EDIT: these are just my fake March prediction placeholders. I have no info on 2023 myself. If you do please post in this thread with sources.

I do have to say, the most annoying thing about waiting for our Maverick is that we have essentially parked our F150 because it is the trade-in vehicle of the deal. That and Ford's treatment of small dealers and customers who placed orders (the smallest dealer of all, apparently).

Here's my short list for MY23;
Shield the drivers rear fender area so road grime/salt does sit up in there with the taillight.

Address glowing red catalytic convertors

Maybe turning on more 'free' features in Sync, like global windows.

More sound proofing on 'upper' trim levels.

Hopefully they fixed the go boom gas tank if rear ended.

They'll probably decide it's cheaper to pay off the law suits than fix all those gas tanks.

Hopefully awd hybrid. Should be easy since escape already has it. Would probably cancel my eco order for that. Seems insane they only offer hybrid in fwd on a truck yet escape suv gets it.

Dunno, if it's anything like the issue with Jeep Liberty gas tanks, it'll end up getting fixed. Although in the Liberty's case it ended up with Chrysler giving every LIbby owner a free hitch receiver instead of a gas tank replacement. Gas tank issues are serious business.

I would hope that when I finally hear from my dealer on August 15th that my truck will need to be reordered as a 23 on August 16th, that there is at least a change or two to consider. Or, at least, feel like getting a 23 comes with an upgrade or two over a 22 to justify waiting for a year or more.

+1 to this.

pretty insane the AWD gets 43/37
And the FWD gets 44/37

I would switch

Just pop the door panel and drop some marbles or ball bearings in there. Presto: instant Rattler!

or run over some speed bums

I love it when people say with confidence "should be easy". The reality is they are probably losing money on every base XL hybrid they sell. They're just not going to add additional parts that has to be accounted for in every step from ordering, procurement, bills of materials, updating code in parts lists, parts scanners (bar code readers, etc), extra training for line workers, and retesting/certifying the modified configuration vehicle through EPA and other agencies. It's not a simple case of going into the parts room in the back of an Auto parts store and grabbing boxes off the shelf and running them out to the production line for installation. Not "easy" by any definition.

Something about "Eruption Green" makes me want to advise you to see a doctor soon.

I got your eruption Green right here

I remember there was a thread that had info about the 2023 MY.

It was a reference to the pinto. It would blow up if hit hard enough in the rear end.
