first model year better?

[mamboman777]

I was worried about 1dt model year Maverick hybrid, but I'm starting to think that I'm fortunate:

1. Wifi module deleted
2. AM radio (maybe) deleted
3. Digital readout in the climate control.

Maybe the first was the best for some people?

Edit: I forgot one: lower MSRP

I was wondering the same

I was wondering the same

I know one thing I'd be missing, I did 4 hours of driving with two six year olds this weekend and that wifi kept the PBS kids up and running throughout.

1: Mobile Hotspot takes care of that

2: Can't be sure it's true yet, but if so, cheap standalone options exist, or possibly stream from phone

3: IIRC you still get the temp readout from the infotainment screen. Even if you didn't, if you're hot, rotate left, cold, rotate right

4: Kinda knew it was too cheap to begin with, but even with the price increases, it's still a good bargain and probably won't make that much of a difference 5-10 years from now on resale value

Added thoughts...1st MYs have had a few recalls and bugs, some of which have delayed deliveries (imagine your truck sitting at a dealer from now until Feb waiting on an airbag recall part), Hybrids have the wiring issue and shutter recall also. Plus, owners of the 1st years ordered by seemingly had no knowledge that it could take up to 15 months to get their truck delivered when they ordered

Forgot to add...some Xl owners went through the trouble (or fun) of adding CC only to discover that 23s come with it standard

Yeah. Definitely worth the $200/year. Also lets me and the wife have lower cost non unlimited plans and and not risk going over our data allotments.

My out the door price for same XL truck and options will be less in 2023 due to rollover rebate. Plus I now get CC, which is something I sort of wanted but not enough to get xlt last year. But for someone ordering for first time, yes MSRP will be higher, that was expected.

I own an xlt, I could have saved money on a '23 because of the cruise, too. That said, my truck is in the garage, so.

I tried the '23 configurator, and an identical build is now $2,811.00 more, so yes, I'm glad a got a first model year.

And all the packages we got aren’t stand alones now. Oh and we are the first on the streets getting all the looks from the chicks. Lol

I bought mine without even sitting in one which was a risk but glad I got the first year. You’ll likely never get one as cheap.
