Looks like I will be flying and driving a Hybrid XLT back next week for almost 1,200 miles. Just curious as how far others have had to go ONE WAY.

My Dealer had a buyer back out of the Maverick that I have now. I was deployed at the time. My wife had to fly from Pennsylvania to North Carolina. She bought the car and drove it into my garage and then flew back home. I know it's not the same but still a story.

Thank you for your service, my friend and please always be careful

If mine comes in, I'll be driving about 1350 miles to bring it home. Some of that admittedly is to sight-see along the way, and taking some back roads that are more "fun" than just driving on I-40 and other heavily-travelled freeways... Besides, the Mav Hybrid loves backroads!

1505 miles in 2 days from Philly to Frisco, TX in May or June last year.

Dealership didn't set up the courtesy delivery I requested thinking I wouldn't show up to get my truck and they could sell it for $5K mark up.

I showed up.

On 12/31 I flew from Sarasota FL to Peoria IL to purchase my Mach-E. Total miles one way is 1220. Not as bad as some others in this thread but still was a long way to go to purchase a vehicle.

Man, guess another lesson was learned to not "mess with Texans." Sometimes we have to just stick to principle and do what we need to do. Like me in this situation. I have two Hybrids ordered that I may never see, so I found one at a great price, so willing to go to Michigan to get it. I will not agree to paying the $7-$10K that some want for the one or two I have found.

I am in Bowie, so we are not that far apart. I am in Frisco area often related to work, so message me and maybe we can meet up one day and lunch is on me.

From one service member to another - thank you for service, brother! 🫡 It’s not easy, but I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. It’s taught me so much, and the value is worth more than gold!
