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

All wheel drive hybrid.

I was originally planning to hold out for a future model year when this becomes a thing. Then gas prices shot up (thanks Putin) and 24 MPGs started sounding really good.

My 2cents because I purchased (from a dealer) an XLT Luxury Package with Copilot 360, Moonroof, added 245/65/17 Toyo Tires, and a hood deflector, while I waited for my August order (XLT LUX, FX4, COPILOT).

Removed the luxury package from my original order because I was not using the majority of those features.

Drove the Silver setup for 6 months/10k miles, and sold it 4 days after receiving my VB. Switched the tailgait assist, rolling cover and rails from the Silver (lux pack) to the VB XLT. Zero complaints.

HOWEVER, I was surprised about the Pirelli tires 225/65/17. They ride good on the Maverick and in NORMAL Mode in my FX4, Driving 30-80mpg on highways (some stop and go), city, and neighborhoods I average 26.8mpg. I am just driving, not watching numbers, and not using cruise control. This is what I want.

Currently have the XLT hybrid with lux package and CP360. I would have done Lariat for additional options like push start, leather seats, LED accent headlight/taillights, more ambient lighting, bigger digital gauge cluster. I don't regret the XLT though, my biggest gripe is the switchblade key

Absolutely nothing. The Hybrid XLT Cactus Grey w Lux Package, Engine Block Heater and Tire Lock Kit was all that I needed.

Might of put AWD on it but that’s it if the first edition color came in xlt eco I would payed for it …

I love my hybrid lariat luxury as is. But with time travel...

I would have ordered a 2nd truck in XLT FWD EB. 4k tow and floor trays only options.

Then took the free upgrade to AWD for 4k/FWD.

Drive the XLT until my lariat arrives, then swap wheels and floor trays to the lariat and sell the XLT with lariat wheels for a profit.

I would have ordered from a large dealership so I wouldn't still be waiting for my June 10th order to be scheduled.

 

[MaverickGTI]

Me…I’d probably give Cactus Grey more consideration.

Desert Brown and Cactus Gray. Ford was trying to tell you something.

 

[Krrr]

I would change the date I ordered.

 

[Clifdawg]

Don’t think I’d change much. I thought I’d regret getting the EB with FWD-only but the reports of ludicrous wheelspin at any speed have been greatly exaggerated. You have to actively try to be a hooligan to break it loose.

 

[Lugnut]

What would I change?

Most probably the dealership ordered from.

DITTO!

 

[Salwans]

I have the XLT AWD + LUX. I would’ve went with the Hybrid drivetrain instead of the AWD EB, and put the cost difference into the Lariat to get push button start, as well as the LUX for an upgraded sound system.

That said, I feel blessed to have the EB. One year ago, I would not even have dreamed of finding a truck that (1) fits in my garage, (2) fits my family, and (3) isn’t priced at $40+.

 

[Pouncer]

Had I known better I would have ensured I'd placed a "Buyer's Order" that had the delivery already titled to me instead of the dealer.

 

[DCP]

My actual order (Hybrid XLT Lux) did not include CP 360. The one I found is the same except CP 360 is included. I'm glad it is there. Knowing that now, that would probably be the only thing I would change about my original order.
