The price? the reason we bought the Maverick, was because of the price!
They stopped vent windows in 1968. Some car models even earlier.
My Maverick was $40,500 out the door, at that price these features should have been standard on my trim!
I'm not sure who you mean by "they", but Ford trucks had vent windows as late as 1996. Lincoln Town cars had them in the 80's.
It's your own fault; you should have ordered it with Platinum trim!
ehh.
My father's '83 Mercury Cougar, which he passed to me, had a horn operated by pushing the turn signal in!
the site, yes. Their wives, well . . .
Put that with the old swivel seats. Nope!Remember the 60s tbird with sliding sterring wheel column ?
I think these items should have been standard at this price, I can understand omitting them for lower trimmed Mavericks but most vehicles at the $40,000 mark have these features standard.It's your own fault; you should have ordered it with Platinum trim!
(I definitely would have ordered a higher trim than Lariat, had it been available.)
go back another 40 years or so, and there were "fat man" steering wheels, basically hinged at the top of the wheel to let it flip up to allow, uhh, "latitudinally challenged" men to fit behind the wheel before putting it back down . . .
I “think” the early tilt steering wheels had very little “tilt”, or at least my early examples did. New tilt (and telescoping) wheels have greater range so maybe they think this was a more useful design. I remember pulling back on a tiny arm that looked like the old directional stalk, and the whole car shook from the “launch” upwards.
on the fat man type, neither the wheel nor steering column tilted--but with that top hinge, it would be pivoting about 180 degrees!
