First day and 194 miles

[JohnnyM]

Alright I picked up my 23 Maverick XLT hybrid today. Technology package, 360, drop in bedliner.
So I was able to buy off the lot (at MSRP+ accessories and honored A plan) from Dorian Ford (highly recommend dealership and Ian my sales guy). With no guarantee my actual order coming in and a job change needing a vehicle ASAP. I wouldn't have added the Maverick graphic but I don't deny how sweet it looks. I'm not big into the sun strip on windshield but glad the windows were tinted. Very happy with the deal, price and everything.

Driving home got me a solid 1 day review. It's not as comfortable as Lincoln, sporty as a mustang, or industrial as F150; but it's not meant to be. It's awesome for what it is. Handling was great. The brakes were a bit grabby but that's okay. It was just a great enjoyable chill ride.
the interior is very nice with orange accents. I do think the seats are a bit thin and I'll be curious how they live with me being a big guy (300 lbs fat build). I wish they had lights like the fusions did for the cupholders (yes I drank in it) because once it was dark I could not see them. Everything seemed to work as it should and I'm really excited for this.
I'm planning on adding a retractable tonneau cover soon and I'm sure I'll go a little accessory happy.

Nice to see these are becoming more available without markups. Seems to be happening more and more so I hope to have mine soon. Congrats and enjoy your ride!

I have an order in at Dorian and will wait it out, but can you both tell me what accessories were required and the cost?

If you want to add ambient lighting to your cup holders you can get these.

Looks great! Did you have the dealer paint/wrap the front grill bar? In that first photo it looks black, could be the lighting though.

Nice to see some fellow Michiganders getting their Maverick. I picked mine up Friday after waiting just over a year (XLT Eco).

About ~70 miles in so far and really enjoying it. Smooth and handles well, really no complaints yet. My 07 Ion feels like it was built in the Stone Age compared to the Maverick.

My only gripe is having to take it easy for the first 1000 miles.

So were you able to buy yours at Dorian at A plan as well? Sharp looking truck and congrats.

I actually want
Damn I didn't negotiate down. But I got the warranty down.
