Hi,
before all the tariff nonsense started, In early January, I ordered a 2025 Maverick Lariat hybrid, AWD, 4K tow package, power sunroof in azure grey metallic and smoked mocha interior. The build date is May 12th. and has the VIN assigned. No eta for arrival to the dealer.
I'm currently boondocking in the deserts of California, Arizona and New Mexico so I haven't had the opportunity to see the exterior paint colour nor the interior colours. The online photos, probably don't do justice to seeing the Mavericks in person.
I'm trading in my 2024 Ranger Lariat which I bought off the dealer lot, so I had some compromises:
1. No sunroof
2. Silver wasn't my first choice of colours but it still looks good
3. Chrome package ... I would've skipped it if I had the choice.
4. No Ranger hybrids ... yet C'mon Ford!
5. I had to pay for the spray in bed liner (which is excellent). It was only a painted bed just asking to be scratched to bits ... and then rust.
The Ranger has been an excellent vehicle on and off road and for towing my 2,0000 lb travel trailer. Got a good trade in value and the price difference is less than my monthly salary. Needless to say, I'll pay cash, no financing required.
Should the tariffs take effect, I can back out of the deal and get my deposit back.
Once I have it, I will definitely post photos.
Cheers,
Steve
