Am I the only one that pulled off the Fx4 stickers? I think they make the truck look cheap and cartoonish.

No I like the way this climbs and travels the trails, it isn't a crawler by any means, but it does do well in trails and it can climb modest hills. The reason I got this was to tug my Airstream Basecamp 16x back into the more remote parts of this state. Like over on the Wyoming border and up near Canada.

Talk about our lucky day!! ☘🍀☘🍀☘

We are HOME with our new hybrid Maverick XLT!!! We took a nice drive and LOVE this truck! Comfortable, quiet and we got 44.5mpg on 87 octane, including driving stop and go, interstate and back roads. Plus, all the parts work. That is, we must have gotten all our chips, because the seats do heat up. Still learning where everything is and how to customise the screen, etc. But so far, all good! Here are some photos. I added the close up to show how orange the hot pepper red looks in the sunshine. Much more than I expected. At first I didn't love that, but in just a few hours it won me over. 😃👍

Thanks! 😊
If anyone is still wondering exactly what the Hot Pepper Red looks like, here's a comparison with my Blazing Red metallic Mini Cooper's colour. Hot Pepper Red is definitely more orange.

Of all the photos I've posted, this shows it best.

^ That looks about the same as when I looked at a hot pepper red Ranger on an overcast day. I could tell under those conditions it's not "just red." Which I like.

Strangely, it looked "just red" to me on a bright sunny day on the shaded side of the Ranger. The sunny side of the Ranger was as beautiful with the burnt orange glow as you expect. It's a great color overall.

I was checking out a Hot Pepper Red Ranger a couple weeks ago.

It's red but not really red. It's definitely reddish-orange... but also red. :unsure:

It seems like to me that the brighter the sun the more orange the color appears. At night the truck looks more like a traditional red. I love the color, but I got it for the orange.

But a non-traditional red on an overcast day. It's kind of dynamic like that.

I really hope my truck gets built. I ordered with Alto Blue, which looks beautiful in direct sunlight, if also viewing from the proper angle. But it's too close to black under any other condition. And hot pepper red is a much more interesting take on red than velocity blue is on blue.

My dealership had a Alto Blue Lariat traded in from someone who decided he was too big for the vehicle.

I really liked the color, it changes a lot with changes in the sun like the HPR. I think the Alto Blue is my second favorite color. I am just not a Velocity Blue person.

Congratulations! It looks great.
Congrats! I love mine more each time I drive it. Beyond 44mpg, I still cannot get over the suspension/handling, i.e., so tight, solid, with very little lean on curves (for a pick-up truck). And that's saying something, as I also own a 124 Spider Fiat and Corvette.

Man I’m falling out of love w those window visors. They’re not big enough. You either butt them together at the door shut lines and then they don’t go to edge of the door or you put them on the edge and then you have the gap in the middle. One more failed design it seems 😔
technically per: instructions they were designed correct fit to be on the seal/flush with the mirror and not on the top of the door, but it's a matter of preference can go either way.
