Illuminated Ford badge? $510! I don't feel the 702A package is worth $5495. I'm sure they'll love the truck. A lot of thought went into the Lobo. It looks the best of all stock Mavericks. I'm sure the next Lariat will have body-color bumpers and rocker covers.

My lobo is being built next week. I cant wait!

Thanks for the Link great article but the test on the LOBO in the link must have been different than the 2026 TOTY test as that one was faster 0-60 6.1 seconds and 1/4 mile [email protected] mph

I have yet to see a Space White Lobo in the wild. Which is a shame, because I really wanted to cross-shop it with Velocity Blue (what I ended up with). It's an interesting color for sure.

It seems none of the big auto media companies can get any sort of consistency from their Maverick 0-60 numbers. I'm sure they are all doing it differently.

46k!!

Yea, that might be a new record for "most expensive Maverick possible". My Lobo was ~$37K, IIRC.

they did say ~$47K out the door so more like MSRP of ~$43K. My MSRP was $35,170 after employee pricing. I have a job 2 Lobo- no GPF,

And people still try to call these "cheap trucks".

Not anymore!

regarding consistent 1/4 mile times. When I was actively drag racing years ago, atmospherics (temp, barometer, humidity and wind) alone would affect times over 1/2 a second. Way slower in the summer than spring/fall.

Then we have no idea if they were leaving from an idle or power braking, etc.

Then we have no idea if it was at a track (does the guy know how to shallow stage for maximum rollout?) or if this is just an accelerometer/gps device on some back road.
