Keeping my 24 Mac.

Try again in 2026. Hoping for a better front end
Why no FX4 on 25 Lariat?
Why FX4 on 25 XLT but no 360 Assist?

I’m not a fan of the front end changes honestly, I’ll stick with my24. I waited to long to give it up 3 months after finally getting it.

Do you buy a new vehicle every year? 24 model year is not even over. Would not expect you to replace your 24 with a 25.
For those without a 24 Maverick, there is an argument to be made to order a 24 Lariat 2.0 while the banks are still open to take advantage of 250 HP engine and the 24 style front end.

As above I really like my 24 Lariat. I ordered it July 2023, built November 23, in Kansas rail yard for a month, finally delivered to Granger in Iowa where I purchased it the last week of January 2024. They offered 1k below sticker. Long McArthur didn’t have allotments when I placed my order. Drove from Des Moines to Salinas the day I picked up my Mav to have Long McArthur install hard trifold tonneau. Both dealers are excellent! Long McArthur also painted the chrome look grill crossbar to body color for me with no advance notice and had it ready the next day. Granger does no aftermarket work.Then drove back to DesMoines to visit a cousin, then onto Chicago visiting my sister, next overnighter in Cleveland on way to Buffalo to visit my other sister. From there headed home through the scenic area of middle New York State, crossing the Hudson at Tarrytown and drove along the Connecticut border until turning south thru the Bronx, crossed the East River to get on Long Island and a 60 mile drive east to my home. 2614 miles with absolutely no problems. Still not a single glitch, nothing. Oh, the passenger wiper blade sits to high. Great vehicle. Im short, so yes it took a lot of messing around with the drivers seat to get comfortable but it’s fine now. The power driver seat is not really 8 way. My 06 Mustang GT is true 8 way, as was my 94 TBird. Again, no problems at all, didn’t do the tail-light recall yet. This vehicle is a blessing from God, as were the TBird & Stang.

Since 22-24 had the same front end, it's highly unlikely the front end will change again until the next big overhaul, likely MY27/MY28.

Only thing I want from 25 is the front parking assist. I miss the beep beep to tell me how close I am in the garage. And the 360 view and the hitch assist knob and camera looks nice since I have the 4k package
