Sorry all I am going to be unavailable for a few days until I am released from the hospital. ..

We appreciate the opportunity to assist you and I will be back when I am able to be at a computer...

If you want builds prior just contact Seann at grangermotors for builds until I can return.

Wow, I told my local dealer about your 3% under invoice and now you're in the hospital. Hmm.

Dang Albert, I was hoping you were past that stuff. Keeping you in my prayers my friend.

BTW, for those of you that hasn't had any contact with Sean he's a great guy, and will help you if needed. He's my go to guy for my Bronco order. The wife says he must have pulled the short straw to get me as a customer. :)

Let us know when you're back, I might be stopping up to visit. I'm in Waukee, my wife works in the DCG school district, and the Maverick has inspired me to maybe make my first new car purchase ever. I have a 2014 Fusion with 80K miles that I'd like to do as a trade-in. Given the used market, this seems like the best time to capitalize on the value of my used car and jump in to a new vehicle with the Maverick.

I'm torn between the hybrid engine and the ecoboost engine. We have a popup we tow with our minivan (about 2000 pound camper) and I was thinking the Maverick could provide a nice bit of relief for our van. But what drew me in to the Maverick was the hybrid engine. So I have to decide if I want better gas mileage or better towing....

Keep in mind, that the GVWR for the hybrid for towing at 2,000lbs only allows for about 415lbs of added weight to the combined vehicle/trailer weight (there is a detailed thread with the towing details somewhere else in the forum...). If that is the weight of just your camper before you add anything to it (water, supplies, and family in the truck), you're likely going to surpass the overall limit!

Unfortunately it will be a little while before I can walk again the ILD along with getting the Pneumonia made the system weak to the point of exhaustion in just steps... Sean will be in the office (Ford building) M-F 730 to 4 pm and Amanda will be back from vacation next week with similar but more flexible hours...

When I get released I will be working at the store from 10-2 or longer if I can as I heal...

I am trying to get ahead of this so I can meet as many of the fine people on the Forums that have blessed us with helping on the Ford vehicle front and allowing for Zach Westrum to try his way of being a transparent car dealership as he grows his brand...

Thank you. Not to hijack the original thread here, but it was a learning experience when we bought the camper 8 years ago and learned what REAL tow capacity was (not the 3600 pounds claimed by the van manufacturer)! I wouldn't tow it with the Maverick hybrid engine (2000 pound rated), but I would with the ecoboost (4000 pound rated).
