I know that manual seats can be adjusted forward and backward but can they be adjusted up and down?

Yes they are. The one thing to look out for is when it’s new, the lever doesn’t seem to work well until, you use it a few times. I even had to get out of the seat to get the lever to work, but does now.Thank you LongshotXL.
Thanks for the extra info!Yes they are. The one thing to look out for is when it’s new, the lever doesn’t seem to work well until, you use it a few times. I even had to get out of the seat to get the lever to work, but does now.
That's also good infoI'm 6'4" and I'm tall in the torso, so it was very important to me to test out the seat at the dealer before I ordered. I was lucky enough to find a sold base model on the lot that they let me sit in and try the adjustment. I can tell you it has a pretty good range of travel up and down and certainly got me low enough for my height.
I'm glad to hear they go up since I'm only 5'6" I don't want to look like a little grandpa thar can barely see over the steering wheel..I'm 6'4" and I'm tall in the torso, so it was very important to me to test out the seat at the dealer before I ordered.

i am also 6’4 and more long legged so the seat height adjust helps, but there is one issue with Ford: Ford height adjusters also can push you forward. So if you adjust the seat high, it will push you forward and you lose legroom, if you go down, it will push you backwards and you will gain legroom. One other thing to consider is if you get a Maverick with a power moonroof you will lose 2 inches of front headroom, because I have the seat down a ways and all the way back this isn’t a problem, but I am an inch from hitting my head when I sit in the passenger side which has no height adjustment at all.I'm 6'4" and I'm tall in the torso, so it was very important to me to test out the seat at the dealer before I ordered.
