Yup, I think that was it with dealer stock, don't have to sign an embargo if its not for the press vehicle, and they are way too big a channel to worry about Ford scolding them. Clever!This is great. Seems either the Oct 5 embargo does not affect their region or they were able to bypass it by reviewing a dealer stock unit. Nice!
And yet here they are already bashing the Hybrid and calling the eCVT a CVT.Yuri (guy on the right) was also bashing the styling of the Maverick before from pictures compared to the Santa Cruz, but now that he sees it in person he actually really likes it. And his final takeaway is very positive and says that he didn't expect to like it so much.
So that's a pretty big S.E.G. and thumbs up from someone that came in predisposed to bash it.

I am bracing myself for over half the videos to make that mistake. Everyone does it, even Alex on Autos who is usually pretty careful.And yet here they are already bashing the Hybrid and calling the eCVT a CVT.
Well, an eCVT is a type of CVT, since all that means is "continuously variable transmission" so more or less anything without gears is one, just like Hyundai's unique IVT is.And yet here they are already bashing the Hybrid and calling the eCVT a CVT.
I sure hope more reviews come soon with actual reviewers who know what they are reviewing. This one seems more like two idiots behind a wheel trying to look cool.
My only issue is I don't understand the pricing. It seems like a decent amount is redundant with the tow package, but they don't seem to give you a discount if you get the tow package AND that FX4 package, right? So you end up paying for things already included in the other package.So glad I ordered the fx4. It’s not that much more and with the xlt you get a lot for the money.
