I have a 24 Cactus Gray XLT FX4. Today I added color matched decals in Matt Black with Cactus Gray lettering. Take a look.You have to take the front bumper off, theres a dude on youtube called Mrboom he shows how to the front ford emblem is secured with two screws to the black grille
Stunning photos! Wishing you many travels in your Maverick.
We love that you are pleased with your Maverick! Thanks for sharing this story and photo with the forum. Happy travels!got this XLT with AWD/Fx4 and trailer package Memorial Day weekend...my golf buddy called it the Urban Assault Vehicle when I picked him up for our Bandon Dunes trip this week. 3 guys, all our clubs, push carts, suitcases, a case of Gatorade, snacks and much more.
Includes a Bak Revolver X4ts tonneau cover (through Amber at Realtruck.com here on the forum, a T-slot mounted cross -bed rack from Amazon (surprisingly quiet, by the way), and late-2000s Thule Sidekick cargo box.
At this point, could not be more pleased with the trucklet. Perfect around town, for road trips to Eastern Washington or the Oregon coast, weekend DIY trips....and when the season starts, my Duck Football tailgate vehicle.

why di ford discontinued the Catus GreyI went to 2 dealers on Sunday to try and find the colors I'm interested in - of course their online inventory didn't match the lot (neither had any cactus gray, area 51 or orange crush!).
As much as I think orange would be fun, it cost $ and is too unique for me (I did happen to see a bronco sport on the road in orange, it did look good!). Area 51 - I like it when it is darker in photos, but the press shots and the release video with it have put me off.
It will definitely have to be cactus for me - I love the flat gray look, and don't mind the slight green hue at all - super excited to get this!
Same! I call it my clay car. As soon as I saw it in person, it felt right!These pics just made me so much more confident in picking Cactus Grey for my order. I love the "putty" look of it. Thanks!
Looking good, John! We hope you are enjoying your Maverick.My Cactus Gray....
