I have one of each,and like them both for what they do and what I use them for . Each has it's own use.

AWD and 4k would be nice, but those weren't an option when I bought my '24 hybrid.
that was my problem too.. ordered hybrid in '23, didn't know the awd was coming.
I've thought about trading in mine for awd, but that would likely cost about $10k, and can't convince myself it would be worth it.

On the size question - was having one of those old guy truck conversations, he said he got the Ranger as he felt the Mav was a bit too small. My response was, the Sport Trac is the same size as the Mav, and I found it does everything I need for hunting, fishing, canoeing etc. He said, 'you must only get small deer'. Ha. On the contrary, I've carried an elk in the Sport Trac, can't see needing anything bigger than that..

at the lake last Friday,

Sweet Mav Doug. I've always been a "do more with less" kind of guy, so I get a lot of enjoyment out of doing all the same stuff as my buddies with a truck that's half the size.

That is a nice brown. But the question is, would you have caught him without the Maverick's help?
