Chip is such an artist, did all these sketches in ball point pen to boot

....and just like that, a sketch worth more than the truck!

Incredible talent!

When Chip says he'd lower the Maverick, then Maverick must be lowered!!

Would be interesting to get a "hot hatch" AWD mav with like 400hp, lowered, fiberglass cover etc. I'd never buy one but it would be a little modernized throwback.

Yes Please

Chip Foose is an amazing artist, car and truck designer and seems to just be a great down to earth guy. Watched when he had the show Overhaulin and he designed and made some awesome vehicles for some well deserving people.

i have frequently told my wife if Chip Foose ever shows up at my house for an Overhaul he can take any auto(s) he wants!

Master at work..

The Mav is going to be HOT for the aftermarket. This is gonna be fun.

Used to love to watch his show Overhaulin just to see him work his magic based upon a sketch that he drew of the "upgraded" vehicle. He never disappointed.

Do we live in a simulation? I was just thinking about Chip Foose earlier today. . .Neato DWG.

It has two things going for it - first, it's cheap which will allow more people to buy them, second it's a solid platform with room for improvement. The ecoboost can easily have a lot more horsepower wrung out of it. It's 250hp stock and people are saying it could easily be tuned to 300+. Wait until the really skilled guys get their hands on it.

The aftermarket will be more than nuts. It will be better than the 90s. Just give it time. And imagine what will happen if Ford manages to shoehorn a 2.3 or 2.7 into it? Hot is an understatement.

Better yet, once it becomes clear that the mav is a winning formula, every other manufacturer is going to want a piece of the market. What happens when there are a half dozen models competing where right now there are only two?

Ford has been very smart in putting together an awesome budget truck from basically off the shelf components. Opening up the low end of the market and doing it profitably will carry them a long way.

There are already tuning chip makers claiming to get to 300hp 350lbft for less than a grand.

I think admin should reach out to Ford and get Chip to donate this as a fund raiser raffle…. I’d buy tickets and money could go to high school driver’s education class, or something else worthwhile!
