Coming from TRX.

[LSchicago]

I get that. I was putting about the same amount of miles on the Viper. And I was getting bored with the power and was about to start modifying.

It got to the 9's pretty easy, don't want to get into the 8's. Goal reached I guess.

DUDE!!!! Before you sell your Dodge you MUST take a pic of it next to your Fiesta towing a dirtbike. This has MEME thread potential all over it!!!!

Also if you dont want to wait I will trade you my Granger XLT FX4K staight up when it comes in this fall!!!

Unfortunately the fiesta is already gone.

I’d trade for 3 mavericks haha.
I’m pretty sure MMR value on the TRX is something like 96 as it sits.

Or you could buy 2 cars like mine. LOL.

HMMMM Gas goes to 5.00 a gallon and people want to get reasonable (Hybrid) 191 HP

So does anyone know if it's best to get the spray in bedliner from the factory do an aftermarket one? I too am going to be ordering a 2023 Maverick but I keep going back and forth between the Hybrid and the EB but I know I want a spray in bedliner, lol. Not sure if doing a spray in liner from the factory adds any time to the actual delivery?

the guy who does the spray in liners around here in Charleston does them for about the same price as the factory one. They also look about the same. Which is why I chose to have him do mine.

IMO, I have had both of them on F-150s (not Maverick). 2018 F-150 Longbed came with the factory spray in with the cool FORD outlined in the front. When the tailgate was opened, it was very easy to scratch up the end of the bed since the factory liner did not wrap around that portion. 2019 F-150 sprayed with Bullet Liner prior to delivery covers much more of the exposed areas of the bed when the tailgate is down thus when you are actually loading something you may accidentally slide across the exposed bed end lip.

Just my two cents. Unless it is part of a required package, go with the aftermarket. Especially if you have a really good installation place like my local Bullet Liner dealer.

I'm ok driving my 6.8 mpg E85 Supercharged Mustang, and 9 mpg E150 van (city mileage). Just adding the Maverick because I think it will be a perfect everyday driver, and good for road trips. I'm sure gas will be back to $3 a gallon by the time mine comes in a year. 95% of my driving is slow speed around town, so why get the EB? I wouldn't spend $30,000 on this to save a $1,000 a year on gas. It just seems like a solid driver that will hold resale down the road.

Howdy folks. Decided to join and get some info. I do not yet have a maverick, going to try to place an order when banks reopen.

I have a TRX which I’m going to sell soon. It’s been great but I honestly keep finding myself in situations where I don’t want to use it as a truck, because I don’t want to damage it. I’ve had my fun with it, now I want something a little more practical. I bought it from Granger under msrp, hoping to order a maverick from them.

Right now I want an XLT hybrid with luxury pack and copilot. From what I’ve read those options are going to delay the build, but it’s what I want. I got lucky and only had to wait 2.5 months for the TRX to get built,I don’t see that happening for the maverick.

I too have a '22 L2 Black TRX that I traded my Raptor in on at the beginning of the year, then picked up a XLT Lux Hybrid as a 3rd daily driver. I absolutely enjoy both of them obviously for different reasons (as well as my 'fun' cars).. For me the XLT Lux Hybrid is the sweet spot of Mavericks, I do (6) 1000 mile fishing trips a year and purchased the Maverick mainly for that purpose to keep the miles off my others. I just got back from my County recycling center in my Maverick where I dropped off 24 quarts of oil (2 of my blown Viper's oil changes) and got 51 MPG on the 12 mile round trip. Later today I'll drive the TRX and probably get 8-9 MPG on that trip. Both make me smile.... good luck.

Hybrid lux for sure makes the most sense to me if I’m going to put a ton of miles on it.

The TRX was fun but I just wasn’t driving it much. I couldn’t bring myself to do truck stuff with it either.
I’ll for sure have to get a hot rod again before too long. I really want a 2nd gen R8, we’ll see.

What generation Viper? Pro charged?

 

[LSchicago]

Actually 6 where I’m at for 93 lol.

I run E85 on my Mustang. Better octane than premium, and under $4 a gallon. About 150 more HP than 93.

 

[StillWaiting]

That’s sweet. Presumably twin turbo?
I’ve had my fun with fast cars too, I had a viper with bolt ons and a few others.For now I just want a practical truck and I want to free some money up for land.

As a die hard mopar owner/fan, i absolutely love that viper

It was super fun. I wish I had kept it. The value on them has been skyrocketing and I saw the dollar signs.

Got my dealer to do a spray in Rhino liner after a buy-on-sight on the lot. Aftermarket installer, they did it and limo tint in about 4 hours. Definitely over sprayed in some spots and there's some bleed over that I found in some of the mounting holes and crevices but overall it's a damn nice coat, super thick and very durable. My bed rails will be infinitely scratched to hell compared to the bed liner over long term.

I think there's less chance of overspray on a factory spray, and since I am not in a hurry, I'll let them do it. As long as I get the truck by this time next year.

 

[T505]

Update. I didn’t want to wait. 4k over, still well under kbb and under mmr value.Also I wanted velocity blue so ordering wasn’t an option.

Ecoboost,awd,lux,360,fx4

Pleased with the fuel economy, presumably it will slightly increase.

Both bikes fit in the bed nicely, going to mount two through axle mounts to a 2x12 and lay it in the bed.

I’m definitely happy with the truck so far. Transmission definitely shifts goofy at low speeds but I guess it needs to learn.

CP360 isn’t quite what I thought. Admittedly I didn’t really even research it beforehand though.

It doesn’t actively lane center like my girlfriends base model Kia seltos does. It just ping pongs you between the lanes. If I were ordering, I’d definitely drop that option so it wouldn’t be a constraint.
