If you had a chance to order again what would you change?

I ordered a Maverick Lariat Lux in Area 51. If I was reordering I think I would have added the First Edition for the moonroof and tonneau cover. And possibly considered other colors more seriously although I still like Area 51 a lot.

I'd change my dealer choice. At the time, Ford's own website directs you to the geographically closest dealer to you, never mentioning that dealer allocations were the #1 factor in your wait time provided you had no constraint items. XL EcoBoost w/o 360 and still waiting.

(I did recently get scheduled, the same week Ford "absolutely not quickly" pivoted to F.I.F.O. order ranking. How 'bout that...)

I would have paid the extra $800 to get the black painted 18" wheels instead of the standard Lariat 18" wheels. I was trying to save a little money but now that I've seen more pictures of the black painted wheels I have a little regret I didn't go for it.

Was the opposite as would have ordered the FE but liked the standard Lariat wheels much better. Also was not crazy about the decals.

I would have ordered mine when I reserved it in August instead of waiting till October. I ordered a hybrid XLT with lux. Maybe I would have a build date by now if I had, or maybe not. Who Knows.

I'm with you regarding the stock lariat wheels. I've ordered replacements from Tire Rack; ETA Jun 15th.

No changes for me. Ordered exactly what I wanted. I knew there would be a wait.

Only trepidation for me is never owned or even driven a hybrid type vehicle. So I hope I like it.

Although I worked in Electric vehicle early 90's at Ford. No hybrids though.

I would have ordered it at as many dealers who have refundable deposits as I could. See who can get me my truck the fastest and flood the market with Mavericks. Win-win!

To submit my order and not have to remove items to get it built!

 

[skadizzle]

I would've ordered it two months earlier so that I probably would've had it by now. The only other option I considered adding was a moon roof, but since I have the rear window, I figured it would replace it.

I should have kept my XL order with 360, hitch, and tonneau hard roll up

It's so easy to pile on the extras knowing that a fully loaded truck is still cheaper than most trucks out there. But the real charm of this truck is the cheap entry price point.

I'd reconsider the Lariat Lux. It doesn't feel very refined.

I'm also not sure I'd get the moonroof, but we'll see if that changes as summer starts.

Well it is difficult to say what I would change as I haven't taken delivery yet, but I probably would have gone with Area 51, and a base Hybrid. My favored commute is stop and go, which is in that vehicles wheelhouse. Though I use the heated seats in my wifes Ecosport every time I am in it. So maybe XLT Lux, lol. I didn't need the FX4 package or the Lariat package. I ordered those mainly because I had similar items on my 2012 F150 Lariat that had been stolen (was recovered then sold) and didn't want to feel like I was going backwards. The FX4 was on a whim and I am sure I will enjoy it, but with the panels underneath I probably wont trust anyone but a dealer for oil changes...

Dealers! lol

Drop the bed extender (b/c people who ordered my exact truck but without that upwards of 1 month after my order got scheduled last week and I'm still waiting). Otherwise, no changes... except I'd have ordered from every single dealer in driving distance to up my chances of getting at least one truck from a dealer who doesn't try to jack up the price on me.
