I am willing to wait quite a while, I am willing to compromise on features, I am willing to compromise on quality, but I am not willing to do all three.

I have thought for a while about the Maverick obviously, I was very excited to get it and I still really want it. I begrudgingly set aside some things I really want in favor of the truck bed and I understand that I was going to wait for an indefinite amount of time but no updates by May was my cutoff. With the news that Ford oversold the 2022 model year and some people will not get the vehicle that they ordered I considered removing CP360 which really only has 1 real feature I cared about at my trim level which was the cross traffic alert. But that was the straw that broke the camels back so to speak, I have given up enough features and any more becomes an exercise in sunk cost. No thanks.

Good luck on getting your Mavs, this post was not to discourage anyone but just to offer context that silently leaving wouldn't offer.

I am either going to get a '22 civic hatchback, Subaru Forester, or cave to the truckbed and buy a Tacoma. Maybe the trims will get shuffled a bit for the Maverick in the '23 MY in which case I may be interested again but we'll see. Give me adaptive cruise, dual zone climate, and a better infotainment and I'll pay something around $27k-$30k but otherwise I am just going to be making a mistake by waiting on disappointment.

My GF's 2022 civic hatchback sport touring (in boost blue w/HPD package) is absolutely awesome and a HUGE improvement all the way around over the 2019 EX hatch I have. I've been jealous of her since the day she got it. I really want this Maverick but if it did not exist I probably would have gotten the same thing she did, though probably in a different color because you can't have identical cars. That's weird.
Anyway, point being... you won't be upset if that's the route you go. Aside from not having a bed to use.

Hopefully Toyota isn't having the same issue with Tacomas as they are with Tundras in wait time. You could always order a Cybertruck as well.

I totally understand. It’s easily gonna be 1 year wait personally. If I would’ve known that early on, I wouldn’t be upset one bit but I wouldn’t still be waiting this out either. I’d have a new Nissan Pro4X, Tacoma or possibly a Maverick if I would’ve ordered from a larger market or bought Maverick off the lot early on. I’m actually worried about the quality, durability and value of a Maverick 3-5 years from now. I hope the vehicle at least meets my expectations.

I passed on this Pro4X below MSRP…I’m hoping it was the right decision.
