From an earlier post ,I meantioned that I recently bought a 2023 maverick lariat FX4 .
I did not order this truck . the original buyer had to withdraw from the purchase .
One dealer installed option was Ford TOUCHlink truck bed light .
A total rip off. this is a $320.00 option . These lights are no brighter than a overhead dome light .
My truck was in the shop for 5 hours for this install. Another useless ( In my opinion ) was the bed extender .When you want to haul anything large ,it just gets in the way . You need to plan ahead and remove it . Another $370.00 option

I had the Ford TOUCHlink as part of my original MY22 Maverick hybrid Lariat which rolled into a MY23. When I finally picked it up this past March, the salesperson told me that it took them six hours to install and for the $320.00 charge, they would never do it again. Was not worth the time and effort for that amount of money. I really like the TOUCHlink lights. Comes in handy when out at the ranch after dark and you are loading or unloading supplies. Especially if a bag tips over and you are looking for small items. Also great when working out of the bed at night finishing up fence or corral repairs.

It all with many other package options on my 22 lariat hybrid are worth it in my opinion.. you point out singular things that was part of a package but not worth it to you. How about the cargo management that was included? Again probably not worth it to you.. I just don’t get it..
